We believe in great coffee and great food. We aim to create a friendly place where people can come chat and enjoy both. Ask us what beans we have in the hoppers or filter and try a macchiato, espresso on us - see if it changes your views on coffee.

Very nice place above a bike shop . No-laptop policy 11-15, so not a good place to work . Has table service, so feels a bit like a restaurant . Friendly staff . Veggie burger was excellent!
My favourite bar . Cozy , quieter than others, beautiful, nice people, opened till night. And it’s open for a nice breakfast .
HB Full House was delicious. Wanted the Lamb Steak but they only serve after 12pm. Nice and cosy ambience
With its roots in #cycling, the Handlebar (@ZappisCafe) boasts one of the best libraries and magazines on the sport in Oxford.
This place really reminds me of cafe 's in Brooklyn: it's hipster and has a view of brick buildings with fire escapes. The espresso is really good, as is the service.
Amazing atmosphere and incredible friendly staff ! The coconut pancakes are a dream. I am looking foward to the next visit.
Excellent breakfasts . The Sunday “open at 10.30” seems to be a bit flexible, we arrived at 10.20 and got one of the last two tables
Awesome full English breakfast , they have cold brew coffee as well
Perfect Chai Latte and amazing scones ! They are lovely and the atmosphere is super nice. Perfect to relax after a day visiting !
Nice breakfast , decent coffee cozy and quiet
Great flat white , delicious toasted banana bread . I'm a fan! You can also try the Portuguese custard tarts made by Tania !
This place serves great breakfast /brunch dishes . I had the HB Full House which was superb!
Great veggie breakfast , very unique with creamy mushrooms and avo and feta on toast . Nice flat white to top it off.
Excellent breakfasts in a very chilled atmosphere. A great hideout away from the bustle of the city centre.
The best veggie breakfast ever! Everything was just on point ????
Very cute cafe tucked away from the main parade . Went for brunch and found the good veggie delicious!
It's great. Authentic , down to earth, and I literally never had espresso so good before. Staff is friendly too.
Really can’t wait to go back. Nice atmosphere and everything I didn’t try looks great. ????
Some of the best banana bread ive ever had!
Not only that the coffee is good, but service is simply brilliant! Many thanks to Tania and Dan for warm and friendly welcoming :)
Amazing breakfast - most notably cafe’s speciality platter. Such a great place to work/Read.
Super nice staff , amazing poached eggs and they also have my new favorite, Karma cola ????????
Cool atmosphere, strong fan game and very decent coffee . Dog friendly too!
Friendly staff , easy to miss hiding inside a bicycle store
Great spot to have brunch in Oxford.
Great atmosphere: big windows, simple decor, bicycles. Generous yogurt fruit pot. Americano a bit watery though.
Awesome place, with great coffee and chocolate brauni.
Had the veggie breakfast and it was delicious
I'm too biased to talk about... 'Cause I like it so much! Ask for a macchiato , it is the best in Oxford!
Nice house blend , and they get a good selection of guest roasts in. One of the first bike cafés
Not easy to find - keep your eyes peeled. It actually is in the bike shop - which make it even better!
It was overall good, but not amazing. I don’t see the need for soggy plantain in a full english? Service was meh, they are quite understaffed
Want a coffee , but don't want it hot on a hot day? Try the iced coffee . Nice blend, really neutralizes the taste.
Food is amazing! When they are busy service takes a while so don’t be in a rush
Yum!!! Great toasted banana bread and piccolo. Can we have one in Cambridge too please:)
Good coffee , friendly staff and nice setting, even if a little compact
Great, friendly , informative staff . Try the cold brew coffee !
Try the tiffin it's delicious. Don't forget to reserve a coffee for someone else.
Toasted Banana Bread : the best (and only) spot in the city you can get it
The coffee is, as they promise, excellent - although they serve it 'drinking temperature' so ask for extra heat if you like it hot.
Often frequented by Yannis from Foals, this family run Italian cafe is cheap , cheerful and owned by infamous italian cyclist 'Zappi' who runs his cycling club from here.
Nice toasties collection and smooth flat white .
Banana bread , bikes , banging coffee . What more could you want?
The toasted sandwiches are good here. It's sometimes difficult to get a seat though.
One of the nicest places to chill out in the City Centre.
Nice breakfast options , cosy and chilled.
Try a flat white and always check out their guest blend :)
Best value lunch in Oxford. Coffee and a cheese&onion toastie for under 4 quid.
Bikes everywhere with a good atmosphere!
Get a free cup of coffee while waiting with every express puncture repair (£14.95).
Sunday brunch is a hot tip. Good coffee and the eggs benedict are delicious. - James Norton
Adorable, great hot drinks, clean restrooms. Love. - Carrie Lundy
Great views of punting and ducks from the terrace, and delightful food and service. Sophisticated but laid back riverside restaurant. - Jane Wroe
Good specialty coffee shop just off the main drag. House and guest espresso, plus a variety of brew methods. Comfy seating too. - Chris Phillips
One of the greatest museums in the world. Exhibitions almost always fantastic. Cafe a little crowded, but rooftop restaurant amazing with views all over city. - Richard Harris
Lovely bookshop. Huge selection. Great place to pick up some tasteful souvenirs as well. - Emily Blomquist
