If you ride a bike and haven’t been to Squires, do you even have a motorcycle license? This isn’t just a cafe; it’s the North’s unofficial embassy for two-wheeled enthusiasts, leather-clad legends, and people who genuinely enjoy the smell of bacon and chain lube at 9:00 AM.
The Vibe
Squires has been around longer than most of the bikes in the car park. It’s a glorious, sprawling hub of “Typical Biker Menu” excellence—where the portions are designed for people who burn 500 calories just trying to zip up their jackets. It’s the kind of place where you can park a £30,000 Italian masterpiece next to a 1994 commuter held together by rust and prayer, and both riders will be treated with the same level of mutual respect (and shared hunger).
The Amenities
- The Grub: Expect hearty, honest fare. It’s the kind of food that provides a “ballast” for your ride home. The coffee is strong enough to jump-start a flat battery, and the burgers are structurally sound.
- The “I’m Too Full to Ride” Zone: They have their own campsite. This is perfect for when you’ve eaten so much “comfort food” that your core strength has deserted you, or if you’ve stayed for the bar and the live music and realized that balancing on two wheels is now a distant dream.
The Verdict
Squires is a rite of passage. Whether you’re there for a massive bike meet or just a solo tactical chips-and-gravy stop, it’s a place that doesn’t just “tolerate” bikers—it worships them.
Bonzo’s Pro Tip: Check the events calendar before you go. You might arrive for a quiet tea and find yourself in the middle of a 5,000-bike festival. Actually, that’s not a warning—that’s a recommendation.
