Spoke Bicycle Cafe

What a great spot along the bike path! Cool outdoor café with good coffee and friendly staff in a beautiful setting, I’ll be back!

Free coffee! A pleasant surprise on the LA river bike path.

Not only do I like the café there. It is such a nice treat along the LA River. Now, they have a bike shop with the world’s nicest dude that runs the shop. He is such a great added bonus to this evolving space in frog town. He was very informative to me and my kids loved talking with him as well.

This place is sooo cute! Stopped by with a friend during our bike ride along the river. We both ordered lattes and were pleasantly surprised when we were told that they were not charging for coffee, but simply taking tips. I’m not a big coffee drinker, but the latte was delicious and had a pretty leaf design too. They also sell snacks if you need some energy to continue your ride. I loved the décor — there was the cutest little wall of succulents and plenty of seating for people to relax. There’s also a little store on the side if you want to rent or buy a bike or bike accessories.
Super chill and hipster (of course) by worth stopping by for good coffee and to take a break along the LA river bike path!

Ride jah bike over to spoke café & come hang out.
Kid friendly. Dog friendly. Damn good coffee. Eventually they’ll have a kitchen & booze. In the mean time there’s dank food trucks here like steel city sandwich so don’t despair.

Free coffee and espresso drinks.
Decked out café seating with patio heaters, an open viewing window to look at the LA River, bike enthusiasts, board games, bike racks everywhere, expert bike repairs.
A sign that says that donations will go toward building out a functional kitchen.
What can I not like about this place? It smells everywhere like a person who followed her/​his heart and decided to open a retail space dedicated to their passions.
I totally melted for this place and donated $ 10 for my spouse’s and my latte. Cannot wait to return!

Really good espresso and great atmosphere.

So when my friend & I pulled into this weird, empty, dead-​end street, I had severe doubts as to the actual existence of this place. And then when it turned out to be, in fact, a real place, I had second doubts when we walked into an echoingly unpopulated and weird driveway-​like expanse bordered by a strange vintage shop, with Sinatra crooning into the emptiness.
But! Whaaaat the hell kind of magic is going on here? I had the most mind-​blowingly perfect mocha that has made me hate all others’ attempts at mochas. You jerks.

Coffee, live music, great vibes, bike repair right on the LA river bike path? Hell yea! Such a cool vibe with the live music, very refreshing location!

Staff is always friendly. I’ve becoming here since around March and it’s only gotten better. I highly recommend their iced vanilla latte. Not too sweet at all. Love stopping by here while on my bike and I’m not going to lie I have definitely incorporated this place into my routes when riding. My boyfriend and I love this place! They take cards. They have a clean restroom. Areas to sit not the most comfy on your tush but good thing you have your chamois! My bike frame is small so I like to roll it in into the stands versus hanging it up. Everything about this place just works. Check it out!

Cool little café off the LA river bike path. They have a bike repair spot here as well.
My friends and I pulled over here during a ride — we had some great cold brews and some granola bars. The owner said they have plans to open up a full kitchen which is going to be pretty awesome.
Great ambience and chill vibe. There were some larger tables, boardgames, newspapers, yogurt, juices, and a variety of granola bar snacks. The café serves lattes and a variety of drinks (no drip coffee). there’s also a bathroom, if you are riding and in need! Get a drink, use the loo, take a break!
The cold brew was just what we needed after a tiring hot ride. Can’t wait to come back!

Rented a tandem bike yesterday that I reserved a few days earlier. The bike was ready when we arrived and after a few minor adjustments my wife and I were on our way. We rode north on the river and then into Griffith Park and back. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and would definitely rent again next time we’re in L.A.

Great addition to the cycling comunity of LA
Beautiful shop, such a pleasant surprise for people who love the sport of cycling.

After a long ride you want a good cup of coffee. Folks at Spoke know their way around an espresso machine. Great spot to chip and recharge for your ride back home.

Cool little spot off the la river bike trail. They sell some good organic coffees and repair bikes.

Stopped by here the other day! I actually drove there with friends, but most of them bike along the LA River and make a stop there.
It was a really relaxing and nice atmosphere. Live band, good selection of drinks (though some were on the pricer side) and a little vintage store where they sold records, vintage clothes, and other random knick knacks. Nice place to check out

Great Latte!
Refreshing unsweetened ice teas.
Conveniently located next to the Griffith Park Bike Path.
Now my wife will ride with me!

If you’re biking along the LA River Bike Path you have to check out this café. It’s a great place to grab an espresso, some fuel like a granola bar or banana, or even get a flat tire fixed. This is going to be closer to the end of the path in Echo Park and very easy to locate!
I always make sure I stop by when I’m biking the river path on a Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday (the only days they’re open at the moment). They have delicious lattes and cold brew, and a variety of other drink options. Very open space with chairs, tables, bike racks, etc. I know they have live music every so often, but I have been unable to be there during a show thus far.
Great concept!

Love this spot, owners are the best! great coffee! Great place to spot by after a ride, they just opened a Bike shop here as well so no need to veer off the bike path anymore to find a repair spot. Amazing things to come from this place!
Check the panorama photo!

Parking: don’t drive! Bike here :)
I love this place, I came here before thy painted everything. A fantastic coffee shop with real coffee, free water and restroom usage for bikers! They have bottled juices and cool haus ice cream.
If you want a nice scenic bike ride, I recommend that you start at Egret Park and bike towards Coolidge where Spoke is at.
Rich mentioned once that they plan to have bike rentals in the near future for those who want to bike the LA River path.
Two thumbs up!
