Loomies Moto Café

A café run by bikers, for bikers. This is the most popular café based down south.

This café is a great place for a ride destination or simply a stop over, located in the South Downs - where you’ll find some of the best riding roads in England - a greasy spoon styled menu, large car park and a petrol station literally next door, all a biker ever needs.

Be careful on the roads near Loomies, acoustic cameras have been reported on the A32.

 

My Rating (3.8/5)

5=Excellent | 4=Very Good | 3=Average | 2=Below Average | 1=Terrible

Facilities: 3/5

Loomies keeps things fairly basic, with facilities that are functional rather than polished. There’s a decent amount of seating available, but the setup feels more practical than comfortable, especially during busy periods. Toilets are available on-site, though overall the facilities could benefit from some updates. It does the job for a rider stop, but don’t expect anything particularly modern or refined.

Ambience: 4/5

The atmosphere at Loomies is one of its strongest points. It’s a classic biker meeting spot that attracts a wide mix of riders, from locals to those passing through on longer rides. There’s a real sense of community and shared enthusiasm for motorcycles, especially on weekends when the place really comes alive. If you enjoy that traditional biker café energy, Loomies delivers.

Food: 3/5

The food is straightforward and familiar, offering the kind of hearty, no-frills meals you’d expect from a traditional roadside café. It’s filling and dependable, but fairly unremarkable in terms of quality or variety. This is food designed to refuel you before the next ride, rather than impress your taste buds.

Service: 4/5

Service is friendly and efficient, with staff who are used to dealing with busy rushes of riders. The approach is relaxed and welcoming, and while it’s not especially polished, you’re looked after well enough to keep things moving smoothly.

Parking: 5/5

Parking is excellent at Loomies and one of its biggest advantages. There’s plenty of space available, making it easy for both bikes and cars. It’s a stress-free setup that makes Loomies a popular and convenient stop for group rides and busy weekends.
