Ladies and Bike Shops

Does anyone on here know anything about the bike cafe that has opened recently on Regents Canal not far down for Lock 7? It looks like they're doing repairs as well now. It's an interesting use of space as it's sort of garage type space under new build flats. They seem to get lots of passing trade from people using the canal path and you can see it from the road bridges as well.

The bike shop on Regents Canal is a separate outfit from teh cafe. But as they are next door to each other, it's a pretty great location as you can relax and eat cake while your bike is fixed.
I stoped the other day to talk to the guy who runs it. He was sooooo nice and did not dismiss me as a lady-cyclist but talked me through my options for building the bike of my dreams.
Big thumbs up to him!
And fantastic contrast to the day before when the bloke in Tokyo fixed gear couldn't get me out of the shop quick enough - female, over 28 and carrying a bike helmet. Won't be spending my bike punds there, then!
