Cadence At The Handlebar Cafe

Cadence at The Handlebar Cafe is a bright, walker-friendly cafe in Winchester where dogs are welcome inside alongside their humans. Open Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 5 pm and weekends from 8 am to 5 pm, it's a handy pause-point for cyclists and walkers exploring routes near the River Itchen and St Catherine's Hill.

The cafe serves coffee, cakes and sit-in food in a relaxed indoor space that happily accommodates dogs. There's seating inside and out, so you can choose your spot depending on the weather and your dog's mood.

Popular with South Downs Way visitors and riverside regulars, Cadence makes a practical mid-walk stop where no one has to wait outside with the lead while everyone else orders. Dogs can settle in at the table and walkers can refuel together before heading back out.
