I’ve often thought that cafe + X mashup businesses were the best ever. I’ve spent many, many nights in cafe+bookstores, being a cafe kind of guy (vs a bar kind of guy, or a strip club kind of guy, thought the quantity of ogling isn’t much different)…I used to love the idea of owning and operating a cafe+comic store, for obvious reasons. Anyway, I saw this place down in Seal Beach while I was visiting me mhom, and had to look it up to show it to you. It’s a cafe+bike shop.

Many cyclists incorporate coffee into their rides… hanging out at Peet’s before doing Alpine Dam, regathering after the ride for coffee and talking shit, etc. and I’ve never really been into that scene, but man, this place looked just awesome. Even just as a solid cafe. Lots of sunny outdoor seating under parasols, a full coffee bar, and then a full-service bike shop and service counter. It looked amazing. Were I not flying by at 65mph with mhom, I’d have stopped for a cup o joe, and probably bike parts I didn’t immediately need.

Anyway, a great review herein:
