We liked the ambience of the cafe, but unfortunately the coffee and cake offering was extremely disappointing. The cakes were small and overpriced, and the coffee was minuscule. As soon as I saw the barista making the coffee in the tiny cups I had already made up my mind that we would not be going back there again. Terrible value for money. I would have thought that repeat business is important to a coffee shop - this is not how you go about attracting customers back.

A bit disappointing unfortunately. Went there previously when it was Velolife, and it had a huge selection of cakes and pastries. Went there this morning with a group of nine riders and there were literally a handful of mostly poor but very overpriced cakes. The coffees were very small as well. Hopefully it will improve as it’s a destination we quite like but unfortunately, unless it does, we won’t really be going back there.

The most fabulous cafe for toasties, Avocado on toast… and the best bread, pastries and cakes! Coffee is delicious and a great atmosphere too! If you are a cyclist it’s a Mecca! The best thing is that there is another one at Warren Row and now a new one in the Henley Rowing Museum. Highly recommended! They have one in Wargrave at the Marina too , but that is only open in the summer - stunning location.

Love stopping here mid-ride for a leisurely refuel. Big fan of the savouries esp the pleasingly chunky sausage rolls & the lemon drizzle. Service great, too!

I can’t comment on the service of the bike part of the business but the cafe was disappointing. The service was poor. I felt patronised as the server snapped at me like I was a child. Won’t go there again, there are plenty of coffee shops in Twyford.

I'm lucky enough to live a minute walk from The Bia Hub and cannot sing their praises enough! Each time I've visited to have my bike looked at whether it be having a puncture repaired (Yes I haven't a repair kit yet...), serviced, tires changed or the bike tweeked they have been fantastic. My knowledge isn't great as I haven't been riding for long, (I'm on a mountain bike), the way they deal with me in there is brilliant, Ferdi is superb when it comes to bike knowledge and getting the bike ready and their coffee and cakes are top notch! Best coffee in Twyford. Keep doing what you are doing BIA HUB!

I’ve visited a lot of cafes in the area during bike rides and Bia is the stand out best for coffee. The cakes look great too. An absolute must if you’re passing and worth a trek if you’re not. There’s a small high end bike shop with quality bike kit and an in-house bike mechanic. Sometimes these places can feel quite pretentious but the atmosphere was welcoming, the staff were really friendly and clearly knew there stuff about coffee and bikes. 6 out of 5 stars for cyclists. 4.5 out of 5 as a regular cafe (because this is going to be a Mecca for those in Lycra which may not be up everybody’s street). I visited during covid restrictions so couldn’t get a feel for the general cafeness of the place but I suspect the atmosphere will be great when life returns to normal. Will make this a regular stop.

Stopped at Bia Hub in Twyford today on my usual Sunday ride. Great place. Well organised for Covid safety and nice coffee. Flapjacks were huge and very tasty. Really popular cycle stop, and very quickly the place was buzzing (all socially distanced). Obviously no indoor seating right now.

Love popping in for a coffee. The staff are warm and welcoming and the coffee is the best around. Cakes are naughty but nice, and even my dog gets a little treat!

Third visit to this relatively new cafe in Twyford. Extremely welcoming with excellent coffee, toasties and cake. Today we visited under lockdown so no indoor seating but full takeaway service with a one-way system in place. We duly placed our orders then found a seat outside to enjoy. Shared a warm, delicious duck wrap and slice of fresh carrot cake with a flat white. The cafe includes a bike shop and mechanic service but this is a cafe for all including non-cyclists. Good job Jennie and co.

Nice coffee and light lunch. We received a very warm welcome from the owner. The family enjoyed very nice toasties and wraps.

Lovely staff and great choice of snacks/ cakes and coffees including vegan ones. Just wish someone would deep clean the toilets as they are pretty dire. Otherwise can’t fault the place for atmosphere and hard working staff.

Plenty of parking and great decor. Staff all lovely and very accommodating. This is where the good news stopped. Ordered hunters chicken which consisted of a tiny piece of chicken with a couple of bits of shrivelled up bacon and very little bbq sauce, chips just scattered on the plate so not good visually or anywhere near good value for money, son had the same with the salad which he said wasn’t fresh. The other dish ordered was the chicken pie which was okay but once again presentation poor. Salted caramel sundae to die for. Could be the full package of the food was better.

Henry Street Garden Centre and Restaurant is an absolute gem for any gardening enthusiast! This place truly has everything you could need to get your garden thriving, and their specialty in roses is something to behold. It’s clear why they’ve been nominated for several awards over the years. The restaurant is a real treat, too. Their Eggs Royal is simply fantastic, and the caffe latte is one of the best I’ve had—smooth, rich, and perfect for a mid-morning pick-me-up. Plus, with free WiFi, it’s easy to settle in for an hour or two, catching up on social media or just relaxing in a cozy atmosphere. Henry Street is more than just a garden centre; it’s a place to unwind and enjoy great food surrounded by inspiring plants and flowers. Bonus point: they are dog-friendly. Highly recommend a visit!

Absolutely delicious!!! We are not local and found this just out of luck and it was just great. Nice warm atmosphere, helpful friendly staff and huge portions for a good value.
