"Ye Olde Bicycle Place"
is the home of Ye Olde Bicycle Shoppe & Ye Olde Bicycle Café, a small family owned
coffee café located on the corner of 68th Street and University Avenue in beautiful
San Diego, California.

This bike shop/coffee house combination is the fulfillment of the dream of Dave Taitano
after 20 successful years in business at the very busy "Pedal Pushing Bicycle Shop"
also located in San Diego at 4966 El Cajon Boulevard.

At the conclusion of a long day of fixing bikes, the crew used to go out for coffee where they
would discuss rides and all manner of subjects.

Dave dreamed of having his own bicycle shoppe/café where he could share his collection of vintage bikes with others. Up until now this cherished collection of bikes ranging from the 1800’s to present day was in storage getting dusty and not being appreciated by anyone. This collection can now be viewed in the vintage bicycle museum located inside the café.

Dave wanted a comfortable place where people could share riding stories, talk about the Tour, talk about bikes and get free advice. The customers of the bike shoppe can wait for their bikes to be repaired while enjoying a great cup of coffee or an espresso drink and have a tasty snack, bowl of soup, or sandwich. There is a free wi-fi internet connection as well, so you can bring your laptop in, or use one of the two computers on the premises to surf the net.

You are invited to come by and visit, enjoy a joke or two, and have some nice conversation.
We look forward to meeting you.

We are located at 6792-94 University Avenue, not far from San Diego State University on the corner of 68th and University Avenue right across the street from the Joan Kroc Salvation Army Center.
