"At the end of August our contract on the lease of the building we rent, ran out … As there has been changes to the new lease we have decided not to renew ! The robbery we had a few months ago helped with our decision to close for good … As we are loomies … Loomies will be closed for good on the 26th oct 2014… We would like to Thank you all for the 7 years and for making it so great . We have loved it . What an amazing life experience it has been , we have met and gained great friends we have also met some strange people lol .I will miss you all … Poor Leon it’s only going to be him I shout at now .
if next door there was a better bike cafe, i would go there instead! it can be a bit ****, fine - but thats not really what im on about. I think they could of done an awful lot more with it…but hopefully the new people running it will
Can’t remember ever visiting Loomies although there might be a reason for that :ermm:
Alternative, recommended and welcoming nose bags in the area include
The Departure Lounge - 11 miles north of A32/A272 junction on the A339 just out of Alton.
Mick’s Burger Van - 18 miles south of the A32/A272 junction on the B2177 (Portsdown Hill Road) just north of Portsmouth.
If you enjoy a cuppa tea with your twisties starting out from the Ace Cafe, escape London by the A413 then via H Cafe, The Departure Lounge, past the A32/A272 junction, B2150 through Denmead and onto Mick’s. Returning to London via Midhurst and the A286 or Petworth and the A283, with the option of a last minute cuppa dot com at Rykas on the A24 at Box Hill
wow box hill is better than loomies…now i’ve heard everything! :laugh:
loomies does amazing cakes and its a popular place to hang after you’ve done with the 272. box hill does the shittiest food i’ve ever tasted, even worse than the ace and the staff is rude to say the least.
yes there are other places as you guys mentioned they are miles away so that sorts of defy the argument. its like saying go to the ace instead of box hill, its just 23miles down the road :laugh:
Looks around, as amazing as cakes are you know perfectly well I prefer something a little more cheeseburger
I’ve only ever drank coffee at Box, wet and warm and on par with the coffee at the Ace. They’d both struggle to achieve nil point, unlike the coffee served at The Cafe Racer. Still can’t remember visiting Loomies unless you took me and David there one time, do they do cheeseburger :ermm:
Hopefully new owners etc buy better coffee and fayre !
place has potential for its location but by Christ they lacked so much … even the staff at Jacks at Towcesterwere ecstatic in comparison .
The only time I have been near it with the Jetstreams is when I lead a ride through the A3 tunnel just after it opened on the way to Fort Nelson and Goodwood. We went past but didn’t stop!
