Eric (bicycle shop owner?) was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable when I stopped by for the first time today! I needed grips on my old college single speed, and he took the time to give the bike a good look over, lube the chain, and give me some useful care tips. The type of old-school, honest and friendly service that’s rare to find. You’ve got a customer for life!

Nice place for a conversation and good cup of coffee.

The service, coffee, and people at Braking cycles is outstanding! Highly recommend having coffee dates or studying/alone time at Braking Cycles.

Just stopped in because Ive seen it by the road. Never knew it was so much more than a coffee shop, its also a responsible way to give back to the community. Also super comfortable to hang out and use the WiFi. Ask about the penny floors, its got a story! Not to mention the chai is great!

Nice place, nice concept, espresso is always good.

People there are very nice. They help you get a bike that suits your needs. Eric is very friendly and so nice as the other person, too. So knowledgeable!!

The entire floor of this place is paved in pennies. Be sure to notice all the penny art and industrial design when you visit. The atmosphere is fabulous. Its a coffee shop and a bike shop. I enjoyed an excellent pour over coffee. They have a good selection of healthy food items as well. The bathroom is unisex, handicap accessible and super clean.

This is a rad little spot. Cozy and a bit of an old Portland throwback feel. More like being in a friends living room than a Portland coffee shop. The coffee is local and really good. And the cold brew is bomb. Also, the money is used for such a beautiful cause. ;)

Surprised at how cool the atmosphere was in this cute little community coffee shop! Our drinks were top shelf and were excited to see what theyre doing in our community. A new fav for sure

Nice coffee and good place to relax and read a book.

Great coffee. Super friendly staff. Its a blessing to spend time there.

Very welcoming and cozy. I found my coffee shop!

Amazing place, with a story told by the penny floor. Coffee is great and Alexis a marvelous barista, and you can get your bike tuned at the same time! Aleks is awesome.

Amazing place. Great people. Coffee AND bicycles... How can one go wrong! :)

Good coffee, kind baristas! The interior is unique and beautiful, but their mission of taking kids out of homelessness even moreso. A great place to read, meet someone new, and support real, concrete compassion.

Such a nice place! That redhead is something else 😘 JK love you Andie, friend. Rad spot, seriously go. Do it.

Super cool place, people and atmosphere. Always feel so welcome there. Try the Oatley Latte!! :)
