The Bike Lock in Cardiff

This excellent cafe is just down the road from my office in Cardiff. The location is light and spacious with ample comfortable seating for customers. I have visited The Bike Lock on numerous occasions with colleagues and the welcome is warm and the coffee and cakes, it’s always cakes(!) delicious. The coffee, in my humble view, is amongst the best you can get in the city. A visit invariably cheers up another working day.

Not my first time here, and each time had a very pleasant time. The flat white is on point 👌🏼 the coffee is delicious. Nice atmosphere, super friendly and helpful staff. Would highly recommend if you want to grab something in town but feel like you’re away from the chaotic city vibes. Tried some food on this occasion, went for skillet eggs which were delish! Seasoned to perfection, served with proper toast. There is free WiFi and nice clean toilet facilities.

A new café, with a nice relaxed and hip vibe that can accommodate safe storage of around 50 bicycles - inside! I like the menu, because it’s simple and easy to navigate. Most menu items are available gluten-free for gluten intolerant people or ones with the more serious coeliac disease. Staff are very pleasant and friendly, and all in all it’s a great place worthy of a return visit. Re their cheese in toast, as a former chef, I would recommend that they really crisp up the toast in a toaster before adding cheese and then grilling to a golden brown before serving. The crisps are a bit soft - just checked the packets: they’re out of date. With a few little tweaks to the finer details, this is easily one of Cardiff’s best casual kaffs - wirh some good music playing.

Dropped in here as visiting Cardiff with daughter in preparation for uni in Sept. Great find & a fast EV charger just by it. Bacon sandwich for me on gorgeous brown bread & fish finger sandwich for husband, washed down with copious amounts of tea, followed by carrot cake & Victoria Sponge. Great service, lovely host & if you're a cyclist (we werent) a real find with secure bike lockups. We'll be back in September.

amazing coffee - organic milk is scrumptious and the banana bread is to die for - give it a try you wont regret it - the staff are the best too

Lovely new coffee shop in Cardiff!! Perfect location, not right on the high street but a great place to chill out. Always a good coffee and their menu is also super tasty! My partner and I go a couple of times a week and the staff are always amazing and welcoming. Although we don’t cycle ourselves it’s still one of our fav spots in the city. Highly recommend!!!
