Carol Lewis: On a cold and VERY wet March day we decided we needed a hot drink and possibly some lunch, the cafe in Cycle Heaven was our choice, and it certainly didn't disappoint. Homemade fresh Potato and Broccoli soup, roasted vegetables, houmous and halloumi sandwich, served with side salad, homemade coleslaw and handmade crisps. Oh my goodness, the flavours were gorgeous, place was spotlessly clean, and staff friendly. Definitely worth a visit even worthy of a small detour. Sadly we can't add photos of the food as we scoffed the lot.

Danny P: A big shout out to Alison for helping me with the purchase of my new bike and delivering it to me. Very straightforward to deal with and would recommend to anyone interested in purchasing a new bike. Thanks

Marcia Parker: Wonderful Service and Lovely Staff.My bike needed a lot of work, and they were able to get it all fixed up and order special parts in all with a quick turn around. Wasn't a cheap fix but for all the work the price was nothing to quibble at, and I got some vouchers out of it.The guys who were there when I picked my bike up on Saturday morning we're very friendly and helpful.Would defiantly recommend.

S “Wee Stuezo”: 1st visit. Cracking breakfast and roll and bacon. Both the roll and the bacon were delicious. Really busy but excellent friendly service. Will be returning. Really good value for such quality ingredients.

Mark Wilson: We went on a long walk and arrived at Cycle Heaven at dinnertime. Its always a good sign when the Cafe is full and now we know why!! My wife had poached eggs on sour dough toast which was cooked to perfection. I had a bacon and mushroom ciabatta roll. The roll was lightly toasted and also cooked to perfection. The staff were very friendly and I wouldn't hesitate to again. Keep it up!!

A N: Excellent coffee and food, plus it’s dog-friendly. Looks like a well-stocked bicycle shop too.

Sue Kilgallon: Great customer service.

Patricia Mellor: Fabulous cafe. Spacious, clean, very dog friendly, muddy human and dog friendly too. And dare I say it, wonderful clean toilets. Oh yes, the food and service is good too.

Matt Hindmarch: Large choice of bikes, clothing and accessories and a cracking little cafe too. Plenty of bike and car parking. Short distance from cycle track along the river Ouse into York city centre

Mark Benton: from Cycle Heaven through a cycle scheme. I purchased a Marin commuter bike from the Fulford shop in November. The bike was probably towards the lower end of the price range of those they sell but I still felt I was treated as well as I would have been if buying the most expensive bike. The service from all at the Fulford branch was brilliant, from helping make sure the bike was right for me, the general advice and the friendly service.Subsequently I’ve just had my first

Jacko H: Travelled from Harrogate to have my Brompton checked over and workshop staff were really friendly and helpful especially as it’s my first Brompton and was given some extra tips/info on looking after it.I also thought getting a text when it was ready to collect was great and it even had notes on what had been done. There was a friendly dog around the workshop which makes me think it’s a nice place to work too allowing staff to have their pet come to work with them. Highly recommend will try and always use cycle heaven when possible 👍🏻

Martin Jones: Great Shop... very knowledgeable staff... well stocked shop.

Martin Birley: Lovely shop with interesting luggage bikes, pedelecs.

Jason Shepherd: I was on my way to work at York St. John when my chain snapped. Luckily I happened to be just a few blocks away from the Giant store, so I walked it over and knocked on the door. It was about 15 minutes before the store opened, but they let me in and agreed to replace the chain before the end of the day, which was an enormous relief. They also replaced the rear cogs and the brake pads. The end result was a bit pricey, but they were incredibly friendly and helpful, considering I'd come to them out of nowhere before the store was even open. Absolute lifesavers!

Sean Hammond: This guys are very professional and friendly and given me the information I needed well worth a visit!!

Roger M: Excellent service with a recent purchase of a Giant MTB. Staff, especially Claire, went to great efforts to ensure I got the deal. A courtesy call post buying was especially welcoming. Well done Giant/Liv York.

Keep up the good work!

D Miramar: My son managed to lose his seat stay bolt off his trek full suspension. I located several for sale online and ordered it from Trek. They cancelled stating non in stock, several purchases later and refunds from other suppliers claiming to have it in stock, I eventually found it at Yorkcycleswork, I spoke to Dave and explained my dilemma, he checked his stock and called me back to confirm, then he took time to take my details to post the item out, extremely helpful and splendid service. Highly recommended

Peter Graves: Always upfront about service requirements, particularly when parts can be sourced more quickly and simply by the customer direct. My bike was in for service just before Christmas. It needed a part so they lent me a bike over the holiday closure and adjusted the saddle height before I arrived to collect it.

Vicki Robertson: Fab bike, good service
