PAPERtrail Bike Cafe

There is something special about stopping here. The brownies are hands down the best. The coffee is always hot. Paul is always very friendly and they are extremely knowledgeable in bikes. I highly recommend stopping in.

Not sure if it’s open but there’s a parking lot you can use to access to Forbidden Drive or Orange Trail or Historic Rittenhouse Town.

Paul is the owner and he is a fantastic human being. He is possibly the most patient bike mechanic I have ever met in my life.

What sets him apart from other shops in my opinion is his level of attention to detail and educating his clients. He takes the time to explain what is wrong with the bike and shares how to prevent it from happening again. He does this in such a genuine way and everyone wins.

If you want a coffee, your bike fixed, a snack and learning a little about your two wheeled steed: Paper Trail Bikes is the spot to go.

The coffee and snacks are great too :-)

Paper Trail Cafe is amazing! What a wonderful addition to the area with delicious coffee and treats and even socks and masks for sale. The owner is super friendly and the oat milk latte I got was perfect! So happy to have this amenity to enjoy before or after a hike.

Perfect cozy stop before, during or after your walk in the Wissahickon. Wonderful place to rendezvous with friends! My favorite drink: Gingeraide. Favorite baked yummy? Coffee cake. See you there!
