spoilt for choice.

Cafe 27, week 21: the new cafe at Oakwell Hall Country Park - "The Countryside"

Damp outside, still getting organised inside. Decent coffee plus a cake.

Cafes 21 and 22 today. I finally found that cafe I was looking for it is called Merkins farm cafe near Bradford Liegh. Very nice except for the card machine not working I only had £3 on me so only had a pot of tea (they did have some lovely looking cakes). The other one is called Paxcroff cafe just outside Trowbridge on the Devizes road.

I had another cup of tea and a big bowl of chips for £4 good value it is portacabib on the side of the road a proper transport caff with a few tables outside

Cafe 28, week 22: Coffee Cups Cafe, Holyhead

Riding the Llanfair 400 audax this was the only cafe stop I had. Cake (too hungry ), beans on toast and a coffee before riding back to Poynton. 410km covered.

Friendly staff and they only do big pieces of cake

First cafe outing since my accident four weeks ago. Deans Garden Centre near York. Loads of seating inside and out and some bike racks. I had a warm buttery cheese scone and tea. Obviously I didn't cycle there but I'll count this as rehab. It's an achievement to just sit at a table for any length of time.

Cafe 27 on our little 3-day tour! The Silk Mill Cafe in Whitchurch! Lovely and warm when we were wet and cold. Delicious food and coffee…my goats cheese and caramelised onion panini was perfect! A little expensive and really needed some signage but we loved it!

Cafe 29, Week 23: Thorncliffe Farm Shop, Emley

I must stop eating the cake whilst waiting for coffee to arrive

As my excuse they were busy and it was about 10 minutes later coffee arrived. Well-respected breakfasts, Lemon Meringue pie was OK.

Cafe 28 on the final day of our little tour. Honesty Inkpen - one of my favourite destination cafes but my first trip this year! Always excellent coffee and a very nice iced cinnamon whirl!

Can't cycle by a Boulangerie with seats and tables. Just out of the oven pain o raisin and a cafe. They still have the big game offer running 😂

Cafe 23 But First in Bishopthorpe. Recommended by a cycling friend and I've been wanting to try it for ages but it's usually too early or too close to home on a ride. It also annoyingly doesn't open in Sundays. Worth the wait as the coffee and Bakewell slice were both excellent. There's a bike repair shop next door too, although it wasn't open on the bank holiday.

This may be the last one, been away 5 weeks most days 2 cafes.

Has this thread proved that most of the people on this forum don't do cafe stops. It's gone quiet now😩 was hoping that a few round the Chichester area might be mentioned.

I can't believe people don't do cafe stops. Like...why not?

I've not posted for a bit because life got busy and my bike rides didn't involve anywhere new. But I have THREE cafe stops planned for Saturday!

I don't know Chichester at all. Do you know any good cafes there? Or are you searching for inspiration.
