"We happened into this cafe as we were walking through St Charles. It looked very popular with bike riders that were traversing the Katy Trail. In addition to hot coffee, bike racks and outside seating, they had bike rentals and bike accessories for sale inside. Interesting cafe, but just what we needed on a fall afternoon."

"The Bike Stop Cafe offers great food and friendly service. We had breakfast and coffee before heading back on the road. We sat inside because of the heat but the patio looked nice too. They offer bike rentals and shuttle service for Katy Trail riders. I will definitely be back to the Bike Stop Cafe!"

"Who knew Aunt Jo was an influencer? She led me straight to Bike Stop Cafe in Saint Charles, it’s a bike trail oracle. The Katy Trail literally runs past it. I guess everyone knew this place existed but me. You can rent a bike, fix a flat, take a shuttle, send your luggage off on its own solo adventure (luggage transfer), but, of course, I came for the food. Specifically, the Greek Goddess wrap. Pesto, you perfect little green sauce, never stop being you. Honestly, I just keep accidentally finding awesome spots in St. Louis like I’m on a scavenger hunt I didn’t know I was playing. Thanks Aunt Jo. You win this round."

"The food is great. It can take awhile because they get pretty busy but I do enjoy it. The atmosphere inside and out is cozy and usually the service is good. However, I’m so livid. The girl got my name wrong, not a big deal. Except when they were calling for the order I had no idea it was me they were calling since the name wasn’t even close to mine. And it was on a plate. I had asked for my food to go. Well at some point the woman calls out the specifics of my order and I say could that be mine? She was so mad. Even though I was the one waiting for over thirty minutes from a mistake on their end. SHE was mad at ME. And she told me how to do better next time. I’ll never go back again. I’m nice and I’m understanding, she came at me hot. I’ve worked in restaurants for over ten years. I’ve managed not to talk to anyone like that and so should she."

"The cafe was great, it has delicious food and coffee. However, when we went to rent bikes we were quizzed on our bike knowledge (“do you know which brake to use?”) and my wife was given a mixte bike to start without being asked what she preferred. We have been riding for 30+ years and are seasoned bikepackers who were just visiting from out of town! It would have been more helpful to ask us how experienced we were/what we wanted. The brakes were not adjusted properly and bikes could have used some maintenance. It is very helpful to be able to rent bikes here, though."
