About The Lodge

The Lodge is a cozy Fairfax cafe that has become a favorite among the local cycling crowd. With a comfortable interior and a welcoming patio, it's the kind of place where you can settle in after a ride and not want to leave.

The food menu goes well beyond typical cafe fare, with hearty breakfast options and solid lunch plates that are perfect for refueling after a long ride. The coffee is excellent, and they also serve beer and wine for those transitioning from post-ride refueling to post-ride celebrating.

On weekends, The Lodge fills up with cyclists from the morning rides, creating a lively, social atmosphere. It's a great alternative to the Java Hut scene for riders who want something a little more relaxed and food-focused.

Tips

  • The breakfast menu is substantial - great for post-ride refueling
  • Less hectic than Java Hut on weekend mornings
  • They have indoor seating, which is nice on cold or foggy mornings
  • The patio is perfect for lounging after a ride on warm days
