We’ve been asking our members what were the best coffee shops in and around Berkshire for a good bike ride break. The list is short – for now – and I’m sure will grow over time.

If you know a good place, don’t be shy, please leave us a comment!

Cafe Retreat, Tadley

Cafe retreat at Tadley is my top winter stop. Banana and caramel waffle is freshly made. Before Covid they only took cash. Hope that’s changed.

Chocolate Cafe, Henley

Excellent cake and the best hot chocolate. It’s also nice as it’s on the river.

Velolife, Warren Row

Best carrot cake ever!

Winner of the cafe of the year for cyclists (and they truly deserve it after their legal battle with the council)

The Cwtch @ Willow Marina, Wargrave

Free welsh cakes with every coffee, vegan and GF options. Outside seating with blankets. Great find on the river. Cwtch is hug in Welsh.
