52 cafes in 52 weeks - challenge

[Sallar55]

Hi Cathryn Will be staying in Chichester for a few days, looking for a few cycle runs and good cafe stops.

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'm wondering if it's because we're creatures of habit. Visiting 52+ cafe's over a year for some (me ) is easy, although a bit harder if it's on a ride. Many others might only visit the same 10-20. Which is why the thread was started

There's also this thread for those of us who are less prolific cafe visitors https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/cyclechatters-cafe-recommendation-thread.251631/

A picture is worth a thousand words, that one doesn't have many images. You missed the point of 52 cafes, it's a challenge,and as my granny said if it's easy you are wasting your time.

You should see the back, the sun has faded the colours and it's for the bin at the tours end.

Back at Cafe 15 - Rabbit Hill Business Park cafe, on the A168 south of Boroughbridge after a 25-mile windy time trial.

This time I got a photo, even if it doesn't count as a 'new' café:

Cafe 25 D'Oylys Tearoom in Appleton Roebuck. Great quality double egg roll for me. Simon enjoyed his breakfast stack then couldn't resist cake . Inside and outside seating and bike parking. Very pleasant. Open Wednesday to Saturday.

https://cadencecycle.club/ has been recommended by @Flying Dodo and is used by CTC runs. Lobster Pot in Felpham is excellent. Loads of good options in this part of the world....

Cafe 29! Part of a three cafe day spectating the womens tour! The Old Mill cafe in Chipping Norton was fine…decent coffee and carrot cake! Unfair to judge too harshly on a crazy busy morning for them due to all the cyclists and spectators in town! Hit the spot well before I started fangirling!

Cafe 30. Charlbury Cafe and Deli, just before the pro women flew through the village! Cafe looked absolutely lovely but my takeaway decaf coffee was decidedly lacklustre! It was bought for me by a nice couple I was chatting to, so that was nice I suspect that if I went back on a quieter day and ate in instead of takeaway I would like it more.

Cafe 31. Tree Artisan Cafe in Oxford! Best cafe of the year so far! Absolutely stunning little cafe!

Really friendly staff. The berry smoothie was absolutely perfect on a hot day. The goats cheese and roasted pepper roll was absolutely delicious. I genuinely don’t have words to describe the raspberry brownie.

If you’re local, go tomorrow.

Southsea,. Along the cycle path that can't make its mind up, is it on right or left side of road. Stop start cycling again. 😩
