Caffe Velo Verde in Rushcliffe

I’ve visited a few times, with family and alone on the bike and always enjoy the food and drink on offer. Chilled out atmosphere and a welcoming owner. Everything just happens quickly with the minimum of fuss, I like that ;)

Excellent food produced almost before we had sat down, lots and lots of staff and a smaller menu means the turnaround is very fast. Services provided include bike locks, and charging points for your phone and Garmin. Perfect stop off on your ride just make sure you don't miss it.

Great cycling cafe, one of my favourites in the uk let alone Midlands. Staff are personable, coffee is great and decent enough value for money. Watch out for the gravel tho as it can get in your cleats. Will be back regularly

Hidden gem of a cafe and a perfect place to rest on a sunny afternoon after riding or hiking. Delicious tea and coffee and plenty of vegan and gluten free options! Home-made coleslaw was a treat

Considering this was my 2nd visit of the day... it has to be 5 stars.Visited with my cycling club this morning, had a flat white and lovely carrot cake. While we were leaving, I saw some being brought a sausage bap. I couldn't stop thi k about it all the way home.Walked through the door, asked my wife if she wanted to go to a cafe and drove straight over.. the sausage bap was bob on.. everything I was hoping for.Love this place.

It was a cool but bright day, I arrived starvingly hungry and ordered food and coffee immediately upon arrival. The food came very quickly - Hot soup and sour dough bread, both were excellent. Coffee, a flat white came later, which for me was perfect. Good latte art and correct temperature. Taste was mild, but with natural sweetness, obviously fresh beans, clean machine running at correct brew temperature and grinder set properly. My only slight negative comment would be that the bike racks are terrible.

Second visit in as many weeks, this time on my push bike for coffee and cake. Staff were fantastic, lemon drizzle off the charts and the coffee hit the spot. Look forward to popping in again sometime.See you soon

Been visiting on and off over two years and have seen the cafe and surrounds develop and evolve. The units are now all occupied, businesses include a hairdresser, a beauty salon and kitchen design.What is ever present is the quality of the coffee - drinks as a whole to be fair - and the utter professionalism and friendliness of the people who work there. The staff were great pre-pandemic in 2019 and then stepped up a notch throughout the Winter 2020 lockdown, when outdoor cafes were allowed to open. Cafe Velo Vert was often our only bit of sunshine, as we determined to keep on riding our bikes despite wind and the cold temperatures. As health workers whose jobs have been monumentally difficult, it was a treat to have someone else make you a coffee and somewhere to go last winter!As the Great Re-Opening has virtually happened by now, this visit we were able to treat ourselves to a sit down at a table (no longer on the steps or the wooden garden surround) and so shared a Rocky Road. Massive slice for one as it happened, so happy to have shared!I usually have a hot chocolate with all the extras but this time chose an Earl Gray Blue (something) because I’d already decided I was having a cake! Himself had a Velo Vert Special Latte which I think involved darl chocolate sprinkles…Lovely setting with all the plants really starting to bed in - literally as there’s a metal bedstead as a climbing frame.AND, I’ve not even mentioned the nature walk, come here on a bike or not, it’s a supremely tranquil and vibrant little spot!

This was my first visit on a hot Sunday lunch. First impressions were of a well organised, friendly business. they have excellent systems in place for logging your visit and to enable you to order directly from your table.Really enjoyed my coffee and cake which was excellent value.Looking forward to a return visit soon.

Brilliant! Amazing service, friendly and super food. Use the app to order, count to 10 and your food arrives. Perfect for today’s ride as we didn’t get cold waiting to be served. Whether your cycling, or passing buy, this place is great.
