Their website no longer works I don't think and I can't find any info out to see if they're still in existence?

Yep, its still up & running.
Dion the landlord took it over & runs it well.
Trace & I used it for our wedding venue about 18 months ago.
Its a great little place.

Really? Oh that's good, still a motorcycle museum and all? Going that way on Friday on my "tour".

Wonder if they still have that RD350LC on display...

Most importantly - what's the beer like? What styles do they do?

Id hardly go as far as calling it a motorcycle museum, more of a biker friendly cafe.
We decorated it with our own bikes for the wedding.

Yeah it's been more of a biker friendly cafe since Dion took over. I called in just before I came over here to Oz and he was just wheeling a Moto Guzzi California out of the cafe, I think he was returning it to whoever had lent it to him.

Good spot to take a break, keep a piece of 6 x 1 in your saddle bag because the best bike parking is at the side of the cafe on the grass - you can sit outside on a fine day and look at whatever bikes are in the yard. Just turn right onto the grass immediately after coming in the main gate.
