You know the ones, it's not planned it just kind of happens, you stumble upon somewhere and think I could carry on to that one or just stop right here and it turns out to be the ideal cyclists stop off.
Serenity, good coffee and great Cake. Other like minded cyclists and none cyclists willing to ask questions and talk in general about things other than cycling.
The Teapot Cafe on the A55 towards Colwyn! On the way to many North Wales riding locations and a top notch butty! Extra black pudding for everyone!
Coffe and cake?
Beer and pork scratchings, dear God what has happened to my sport?
So good I still remember it. 2011, doing my version of the C2C with my lad, ended up in Scorton, 10 miles from Northallerton, famished, but not fancying a pub stop, on the corner of the Green was a WI cafe. Best Pie I ever had
Heaven
Glenshee ski cafe, wasnt expecting it to be open in the middle of summer on a weekday, served a banging second breakfast to me on my JOGLE.
For me it's got to be Lillypools farm shop/café on the way to Roeberrow. Purely for the mahoosive baguettes filled with doorstep cheese slices and ham and the takeaway cider/rough straight from the barrels.
it's not as good as it used to be but the memories serve me well
snoopys van for a mean bacon/sausage butty and a cuppa tea plus flapjack and change from a fiver,
overlooking digley/holme moss on the A635 (meltham road junction), deciding whether to do wessenden down to marsden, or cut it short..
Humbie cafe south east of Edinburgh is pretty good just now, definitely not a greasy spoon cafe so not the cheapest but the coffee is good so is the cheesecake
Coffee and cake from a van in a layby on the A85 just south of Killin. Looked very unlikely. Decent coffee, lovely cake

Just down the road from us. Only open at weekends in the winter. Only accessible by foot, horse or bike on an NCN route. Was once a derelict farmhouse, now a little oasis of decent coffee and amazing cake.
Surprising number of "just popping out for a ride" rides seem to end up drifting past it...
Similarly to ton - the post office/cafe in dalavich by loch awe was ace too.
The same place as Ton.
The previous night had been a session with the owners of the Sligachan Bunkhouse (drinking cider from a rams horn at 3am) and this place really was, as he says, an oasis.
