Wheelies is one of a kind – a custom motorcycle shop with an in house café serving surprisingly good food and drink at reasonable prices. The café menu is small & meticulously crafted: five sandwiches, three sides, and one dessert, and the drink menu similarly small but sophisticated. Wheelies also features live local punk, and rock’n’roll shows on weekends plus brunch to cure your hangover on Sunday mornings. Located in an industrial part of town Wheelies proves that sometimes, in order to find the good stuff, you need to venture off the beaten path.
