This café is a really unique one. There is a hardware store, a bike store and a café on the same location. They offer a incredibly delicious pie and their macchiato are one of a kind. Coming to this place was definitely a different experience for me compared to all coffee shops I have been before. If you are around, you should check it out too.
Great coffee, beverages, and sweets. Also a lot of bike equipment. Great place to escape the heat and sit down for a minute. Reasonable prices. Nice staff!! Great choices. Overall awesome place.
Coffee, bikes and a hardware store in one, I mean what's not too like about this place?! I'm a cyclist so totally loved this place, ride in, they have a roll up door I'm assuming they use on nicer days, good coffee cool people and the hardware store attached is so cool! It's on the street side but the wharf is around the corner so grab a drink chill and browse bikes and tools or roll around the corner and explore the wharf.
Best Coffee we have had in the 3 weeks in USA . Thanks for the Vanilla lattes and Apple Pear and Ginger cake, was fantastic.
FIVE STARS.
Came in on the 4th of July after a wedding. Very unique spot. It's located within a bike/hardware shop. Cool seeing bikers stop in for some coffee. My girlfriend had a few sips of her latte before a fly flew into it. She asked the barista if she could get another and they gave her a whole new latte. Very nice of them.
The Velo Cafe is the most unique coffee shop in the new District Wharf. It's on the very edge of the Wharf closer to the Waterfront Metro inside the District Hardware and bike shop.
The cafe has an area to order coffee, snacks, pastries, and drinks on draft (they have several beers on tap). There are long tables and window seating with outlets and free wifi.
They have happy hour daily ($1 off drinks) and it's all-day happy hour on Mondays.
