Biking to La Bicyclette

There is nothing better than earning your treat.

The bike ride from Sunnyside is the perfect warm up. A little breeze. Legs waking up as the neighborhood slowly changes around you. You are moving just enough to feel accomplished, but not so much that you forget why you are riding in the first place. This ride has a purpose.

And somehow, it feels even better when that purpose is a bakery that actually loves bikes.

La Bicyclette feels like a reward made for cyclists. You roll up, lock your bike, and the smell hits immediately. Fresh bread. Butter. Coffee. The kind of smell that makes you feel very confident in your decision making.

Their coffee is excellent and thoughtfully prepared. Smooth, rich, and balanced. It is exactly what you want post ride. Especially because sitting outside is part of the experience. Helmet off. Sip. Deep breath.

Then comes the food. Fresh baked breads, simple mini baguette sandwiches, and croissants that absolutely deliver. Perfectly crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, buttery without being heavy. Exactly what you want after a bike ride.

You sit a little longer than planned. Watching other bikes roll by. Feeling relaxed. Feeling fueled. Feeling like you nailed the morning.

Some places are worth the ride. La Bicyclette is one of them. 🚲🥐
