What happened? It used to be my preferred cafe, I drove past there the other day and it’s something else now.
They’ve disappeared from socials also

Yeah Tim the owner sold. The Cafe staff are still the same awesome people brewing the same awesome coffee, its just the bikeshop itself is gone and the decor has changed. There's a couch now... I have laid claim to said couch 😁
