#FoodHoppingSG : Cyclists' Heaven - Wheeler's Yard

Wheeler's Yard


Having a bf who loves cycling (probably more than me), this is like a heaven to him, okay to me as well that he can admire bicycles while I sip coffee. Perfect day for us!

It is at a strategic location where cyclists can cycle around the industrial area and rest at this place for a cup of coffee. The exterior looks like its a warehouse until you enter by its side door. This concept is similar to Chye Seng Huat Hardware store. Can not judge thing by their appearance, indeed.


There is limited parking space within the forecourt. Drivers, you may proceed to the nearest car park which is probably 5 minutes away. Also, the location is quite inaccessible for those people who do not drive or cycle. The owner probably wants to cater for cyclists only..........


It is functioning as both bicycle atelier and cafe. 


Interior




Wide selection of expensive urban bicycles



I suppose the waiter ride this to serve customers?



The back of the warehouse opens up to a park connector where cyclists dismount and push into the cafe. Clever, huh?

Coney dog ($13.90) and Hum bao bao ($20.90)

Espresso with milk ($5.00)

The quality of food does not justify for this kind of prices. I personally believe the hype is for its dual identities - bike shop cum cafe. However, I quite like the chillax atmosphere there. It is a great place to hang out with friends for the whole day.

Also, their proudest host party was that Burberry held gig at their cafe. This definitely beat all their competitors off the table.
