Refreshment Stops

In our opinion refreshment stops are a critical part of any tour and we believe the right cafe, pub or shop will really put the finishing touches to any day out so we have made sure there are multiple refreshment options on every tour at the start, during and at the end (we have more than 100 options)

When you book your tour we will send the options for that tour but just to wet your appetite we have listed some of the options below. You might also be interested in reading our blog Top Pub Stops for eBike Tours

Another great thing about eBikes is that you can get to places without having to pay for car parking and this is a great example where you can ride up and enjoy a selection of different food outlets
