• For those interested in Swindon PM me and we can sort times / tickets / plans. BTW thanks for the inside tips @pdlouche - all great Swindon tips. Looks like the italian cafe doesn't open until 9 :(

  • I think its official opening time is something like 9am but I have had coffee as early as 8am. It depends on the day. It’s easy to find in that it’s opposite the tented market, between a charity shop and a dentist. If it’s open there should be a butcher bike strapped to the drainpipe outside.

    There’s space enough to lean bikes outside and they’re somewhat used to me locking a road bike or bmx against their butcher bike. They don’t necessarily know me by name, but I go there frequently...so there won’t be too much in the way of “oh such and such recommended we come here” but if you said ‘ginger cyclist with tattoos’ they might guess.

    If it’s not open and you’re all desperate, your next option is 222 Coffee. It’s one minute away, on the outside of the Brunel (shopping centre). Failing that there’s a Costa next to it. And if you need to, the Sainsbury’s there opens at 8am so you can grab food and drink.

    Shame you’re not doing this a week or so later when I’m back.
