Downshift

Stopped by Downshift on a cross country bike trip. I was dehydrated, hungry and in need of bike maintenance. Needless to say, all three needs were satisfied. Also, I have a fairly high B.S. detector for bike maintenance... I had stopped at another bike shop earlier, and left since they were trying to over-sell me on a bunch of maintenance I didn't need. The staff here was VERY knowledgeable (and very quick). I got what my bike needed in 15 minutes. Would strongly recommend their maintenance. Also, had a filling Fresh Bowl and some much needed coffee. All surprsingly high quality (I was surprised because I thought that the focus of the shop would be bike maintenance... Not food and coffee). I would rate their food experience 5 stars as well.

These people were awesome! It’s a very hole in the wall-ish place but they have a nice roof patio to sit in, and we had our dog with us. The food was really good home cooked style food. This is an amazing bike shop/ bar/coffee shop. If you’re in Roanoke this is a must for anyone who likes nice local shops. Keep it up guys!!!

This place is awesome! Amazing staff, coffee, and atmosphere. Haven't tried the food but I've seen quite a few people in here having food. If there's something bike related they've also got you covered with that. The store front is right downtown but not smack dab in the middle of downtown so it's low-key chill. The rooftop area is just an added bonus.

The bowl was absolutely delicious! The peanut butter coffee is now my favorite drink 😁 I'm not a bike person, but this stop could make me reconsider... There were a lot of unique items that intrigued my interest. The employees were top notch and even greeted customers with a great smile and conversation! I will definitely be back!
