Bike cafés in Amsterdam
Roasters keeps a separate guide for Amsterdam because the city has a real cycling culture, and cyclists are some of the most loyal café regulars there are. Think racks by the door, early opening before group rides, and espresso good enough to plan a route around. The guide draws on the 156 specialty cafés and roasters the community has mapped in Amsterdam.
Bike cafés in Amsterdam fall into two groups. The first is the dedicated bike café — half coffee bar, half repair shop or club room. The second is the cyclist-friendly specialty café: not branded around cycling, but with bike racks, an early opening, and a regular flow of riders that the staff knows by name.
