Great cycling Cafe in Ontario navigating the pandemic

If you're ever in the area (Dundas, Ontario), this is the place to get your coffee.

It's virtual Coffee for now.
Ad Blockers wont let me open the Hamilton Spectator article.

But, yes, for sure this is a great cyclist destination "coffee" stop.
Veggie, we need to organize a PL ride with a stop here.

Start at Fix Coffee and Bikes in Toronto and ride there - or the other way round.

I'd do a Fix-Domestique-Fix ride when it warms up. Fix is pretty close to me.

I’m in too. The way it’s looking with the Ontario and Canadian government delays, it might not be until August. πŸ˜’
Everyone should be in good riding shape though.

22? Ease up man, this is a social ride. Why you trying to be all macho?

Always one in the group. Sheesh.

Just looking at the article.. there's a painting on the wall that looks like Eddy Mercx in a Pink Giro Faema jersey and he's holding a demitasse cup.

It would be such a great little thing in a coffe shop if the painter had changed Faema to Crema.

Good old Cafe Domestique! I always stopped in there on Dundas/Hammer rides. Glad they got a new spot, although the old one was pretty great.
