The new undercover areas are ace and great big screen with the racing on, definitely the best biker cafe in South East!Food is good

Really like what they have done to the outside, and the staff seem nice and helpful, but the food and drinks are

There's been a vast improvement in the quality of the food since the new ownership. The outside area has also made a massive improvement, with an amazing seated area, and outside projector screen.The only reason that the service gets four out of five is because it's not quite as polished as everything else. Constructive criticism: the left hand needs to do a better job of knowing what the right hand is doing. Having said that, the staff were all professional, and friendly.

They’ve really changed this place, looks like for the better. Looks great on the first sunny day of the year!

Great place for bikers, hikers and everyone else to meet, eat and enjoy the scenery.

Since the makeover, this place is much better for a visit. It's what you'd expect from a car park cafe, but it's great value, always busy with cyclists, walkers, motorcyclists and car enthusiasts. Great meeting point, fast service and tasty.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair friendly, no steps or difficult pathways.

Much improved especially the seating. Outdoor seating is better too. And nice to be able to get a coffee at a reasonable price. Not tried the food this time. Shame you have to queue for 20 mins just yo get a drink. Can't understand why they don't separate the food and drinks order tills.

Tried to have a nice breakfast and they were closed 31/12/23 and nothing stated on their website.Also the music is so loud and it’s cold inside whenever I go, early morning breakfast and loud music are a bad combination when wanting to warm up after a cold ride.Veggie breakfast was better before the new menu.Website asks for feedback and asks for an email address and then no one responds.
Place is looking so much better but You've spent too much in the wrong places. 3 times I been this year and always " the coffee machines r broken" No chocolate no lates. Your machines are not up to the job. Buy some proper equipment. its Normally 3 strikes and your out. Please improve

Great biker meet venue, toilets, canopies for shade or shelter from the sun or rain. Good sized carpark for lots of bikes and some interesting cars.Good for all sized bikes, small to large, slow to fast, old to new.

Fantastic since the 2024 refurb. So pleased that someone invested in this place to make it so much better than it was before. The food is pretty good for a UK biker joint - just don't expect haute cuisine! Definitely worth a visit.

I'll start with the positives, I absolutely love this place, the location is perfect, the atmosphere and staff are always brilliant and the new decor looks great. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for the new menu and it is very disappointing. After midday it seems to be only burgers available now, no more jacket potatoes, panini's or baguettes. Apart from the lack of choice the burger I had yesterday was probably the worst and possibly one of if not the most expensive burger I've ever had. Pathetically small slab of meat, very stingy amount of salad, overpowering or perhaps too much burger sauce, onions looked and tasted like bits of old shoelace and it was all in one of those silly little brioche buns. I think a lot of great changes have been made over the past few months and it's obvious a lot of thought, time and money has gone into reviving rykas but this menu is a huge step in the wrong direction. I'll still be calling in for drinks fairly regularly but definitely won't be eating here again well not for lunch anyway but I might give the breakfasts the benefit of the doubt as the the fry ups were cracking before.
