Velocity Café & Bicycle Workshop

It's an unfortunate visit because I really wanted to like the place. However the food was a huge let down, What on earth is going on? Everything is just so random and doesn't go well with each other. Felt like I was eating random leftovers that didn't belong to the same dish, just left me confused and desperate to was my mouth with anything else, although I must say the beans they have in the sandwiches were really good. Fair to say overall I didn't like the food or the drinks. And on top of that, getting a few strands of hair in my food was just too much, I understand these things can happen and expected, but seeing how they prepared the food with no hygiene awareness was disappointing, and ought to happen again and again. 2 stars because am feeling generous as the atmosphere was somewhat nice.

A lovely vegetarian, environmentally conscious cafe. The vegan scones were fabulous, the only thing I’d say is to serve tofu in smaller chunks to maximise the flavour! Other than that everything was spot on :)

The cafe is very cute, the location is also great as it is in the city centre but on a street which is not very touristic. I had a delicious soup with gluten-free bread! It was lovely to find out that they are very knowledgeable about the coeliac disease. I also had a super creamy cappuccino with soya milk! Also, they didn't charge more for the milk alternative, which I think is super nice. Highly recommended cafe!

Passed by this café on our way to our airbnb, already looked really cute, so we returned the next day for coffee and brunch. Super cozy place, food and coffee were absolutely delicious. The staff was extremely friendly and the overall atmosphere is amazing. Serves vegan food (also gluten free) as well as vegetarian options that can be made vegan. We returned the next day for something more coffee bc we enjoyed it so much.

we found this by chance and we liked the open stile. The service was excellent and the menu had some interesting food combinations. Very tasty. Highly recommended.

In the past, I have struggled to go to a place in Inverness that fits what I like to eat and the atmosphere. I finally found the place. This is a great place for vegetarian food, with lovely staff looking after you. There is a real community feeling where everyone is trying their best to add their bit for every body else's benefit. Great food and place. Went twice on a same trip and will repeat for sure.

We’ve been here two days in a row, once for lunch and once for breakfast. I am so happy such a place exists in Inverness! The entire idea behind the store and the restaurant, their openness and their vegetarian and vegan food is amazing! We had lunch combos (sandwich and soup) and porridge for breakfast - the best I tried out of my kitchen :-) (they were so nice they also put an extra banana in it). Their coffee (we tried the flat white) is very tasty and well done, too. Will come again for sure!

We were looking for a place to eat in Inverness; at first I thought the prices were a bit expensive but when I looked at the menu items I got excited to eat here and there food did not disappoint. It was creative, exciting and everything tasted excellent. It was also a fun experience as several of the dishes had layers of items we kept discovering as we ate. I had the weekly special, huevos rancheros, my husband had the hommus plate and my daughter had the granola. We shared between us and loved all the dishes, but the hommus plate was probably the best. The coffee was also excellent and this was great as we haven't had many other good cappuccinos yet in Scotland. I am not exaggerating to say this is the best coffee we have had so far in Scotland. Definitely worth the price tag.

In Inverness for a few days and came across this gem. Fabulous food, wonderful sweet treats and a warm and welcoming staff. The environment is welcoming and comfortable. I had the gf breakfast with regular sourdough and every bite was delectable. They also carry an assortment of kombucha which sealed the deal! My travel companion had the blueberry pancakes with lemon curd and said they were great. Don't miss out on this place.

Warm, welcoming and quaint with a light fare menu. I am going with the Velocity BLT and the Mandarin & Orange jigger (fizzy soda). The BLT comes on some fresh multigrain bread, bacon, avocado and sun-dried tomatoes which is an interesting twist. Service is friendly and quick and the spot has a chill, laidback vibe. Well done.

Love! Very unique combination of a coffee + bike shop. Oat milk latte was perfect and the overnight oats were great (very generous portion). Everyone was very friendly. Highly recommend!

Suuuuper flavorful food and delightful coffee drinks - will come back here when I'm back in town - A++++ service

I visit friends who live outside Inverness ever so often, and it is so refreshing to have a nice cafe to depend on! I will admit the first time I visited the coffee wasn't spot on, but this second time around they have definitely figured it out, as they now serve and make Papercup coffee. The atmosphere is nice and relaxing, a bike themed cafe, you don't have to be a bike lover to enjoy a coffee and a cake here. The cakes, made from the local 'Garden Bakery' were absolutely stunning. I had a rhubarb and custard cake, which looked entirely too decadent, but it was perfect, not too sweet and not heavy. It was so agreeable we got a slice of the ginger cake, which was icing-less, but equally as good, and again wasn't to sweet. I would highly recommend this place for a good seat, atmosphere and delicious cakes. They also serve soup and some small lunch items, as well as have a rage of games, bike themed magazines/books and a community style table to sprawl out on.

A really nice café and bicycle workshop combined with a nice atmosphere! The lunch soup is great! They also let you fix your bike yourself with or without assistance from a bike mechanic for a reduced price! Great coffee as well!

Might have visited at a bad time - flat whites not up to standard of previous reviews. Not certain why there was five girls behind the counter, not that busy during lunch time.
