Road Crew Coffee & Cycles

No longer bike friendly. We were not allowed to enter with bikes and leave them in a place where it was not bothering anyone.

Lol the big blonde girl taking the order is super rude. I didn’t tip bc I took it to go and got a way smaller sized coffee than normal (my hands are pretty small for reference). Never coming to this establishment because there are way better coffee shops in STL that don’t do this. I would take Starbucks over this attitude in business any day😂

Cute space but it is extremely disappointing walking in and being greeted with very weird and rude vibes. I literally live around the corner and was looking to find a cute cafe I can sit and work at and it just doesn’t seem worth feeling like I’m not welcomed in the place i would have liked to support.

Seems like the rudeness of server/barista is a common trend. Hopefully they correct this or get friendlier staff.

Never coming back. Moving into the neighborhood next week and came here for the first time to check it out. Barista had a bit of attitude when ordering, but I looked past it. Ninety percent of my interactions at St. Louis establishments have been more than great with helpful, friendly – even informative – staff. Bro is probably having an off day. At 4:15 p.m. he came over to me and another patron to tell us “I gotta start mopping fellas let’s go!” First, guy coulda mentioned they they close in 20 minutes when I ordered my drink, “for here.” Second, listing says it’s open until 6pm and LARGE print on both doors say it’s open until 8pm. I when shop actually closes, barista is further annoyed and responds “Four o’clock.”
The failure here is not recognizing that for this type of business – one that serves a local clientele of residents, workers, and commuters – success depends as much (or more) on a friendly staff than on literally anything else. At least 3 more patrons have walked up and had to be turned away because they close at 4pm, not 6pm or 8pm. I understand a worker being annoyed at confused customers, but it’s not our fault. Not to mention a sharpie, a sheet of paper, and some tape resolves the issue.
The drinks are mediocre and overpriced, too. One star. Do not recommend.

Combination coffee and bike shop just south of Tower Grove Park in a newer building. The coffee was good. Did not have as wide of a selection of options as some other coffee shops. Pleasant atmosphere, but you are essentially in a bike shop. Probably about 10 tables to enjoy your coffee. Service was top-notch.

The most excellent Tonic Espresso I’ve had in recent memory! Jacob Skaggs was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful - wouldn’t hesitate to come back!

Tried a few coffee shops on this visit to St Louis and this was by far the best!

I love their pour-over coffee! The space is so cute, cozy, and bright with lots of seating. Perfect for working. They don’t have a lot of pastry options but the one I had was very good! The matcha was okay.

No food, mediocre service, not many flavors to choose from. Opted for one of their seasonal drinks, a coconut cold brew, it was extremely bitter and I could not taste any coconut whatsoever. Pretty disappointing

This is the place you want to go. Wonderful pour over that was carefully executed. Great selection of roasted beans as well.

Great place to catch up with friends or do some work. They also work on bikes and can order bike parts. Staff is knowledgeable in bikes and in coffee!

I drink cappuccino at every coffee place and theirs was one of the best ones, also they are dog friendly. What is there not to like?

Only light roast and medium roasted coffee that tastes like water. Coffee tastes cheap.
