ABOUT US
The Old Bicycle shop has gained a reputation from it’s fresh local ingredients, sustainable food & drinks and being known as the oldest bicycle shop in the country! Rumour has it that Charles Darwin, famed for his ‘Theory of Evolution’, bought a bike from this shop in the 1800s.
The quaint building, over 2 century’s old, offers an industrial & quintessential Cambridge design to celebrate the heritage of the original bicycle shop.
