Bikes and Beans

you haven’t been to Bikes and Beans, you’re missing one of Boise’s hidden gems. Andrew, the owner, is flat-out awesome — the kind of guy who knows your name, your bike, and your favorite coffee order. Speaking of coffee… hands down, this is some of the best coffee in Boise — maybe the best I’ve ever had (and I take my caffeine seriously). The bike side is just as impressive. I’ve managed to mess up my electric bike more times than I can count, and these guys have had it fixed quick, every single time. Whatever they repair stays fixed — and that’s saying a lot. They know their stuff and treat every customer like a regular. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to hang out — grab a killer cup of coffee, talk bikes, and leave in a better mood than you came in. One of my favorite spots in Boise, no question about it. Do yourself a favor and check it out — once you go, it’ll be your new go-to too.

I took my Rad bike to Bikes and Beans to have the controller replaced. I spoke to Dave before taking my bike in because I had a friend who didn’t have a great experience with Bikes and Beans a year or so ago. But since Rad had recommended Bikes and Beans, and Dave was able to answer all of my questions and address my concerns I went ahead and took the bike in. I am 100% Satisfied with the work that they did. The bike was ready the same day I took it in and I even got a few small maintenance items checked while I was there. Also got good tips on properly managing the battery and electrical system for the Rad bike. I will definitely be using bikes and beans for all future maintenance on my bike!

Tina and Andrew are amazing people, and their coffee/bike shop is a valley staple. I had an old Schwin bike that other bike shops said they couldn't work on. Andrew had me bring it in. He was able to restore the bike and make custom fenders. I absolutely love this bike. Their coffee is super high quality and very delicious. They make a matcha latte that is the closest thing to the ones we had in Japan. Please support this amazing local business, you won't regret it.
