Walked in a Saturday afternoon of St. Patrick’s Day, hoping to get a drink, and they yelled at us that they were closed, even though the doors were open, and then, when we weren’t sure what was going on, they blew an airhorn in our ears. Will not be back, extremely unprofessional.Edit: Typical small business response, not taking responsibility and trying to blame someone else when it was the bartender (if you disagree, show me video) that blew the air horn. We had an awesome time at Chef Tito’s after, come here instead!!!Edit 2: their response is literally we should have taken our ‘mind reading pills’. Amazing.

Walked in on Snake Saturday, only to have a rude bartender yell "we're closed!" several times as we opened the UNLOCKED front door. Then, we had an airhorn blasted at us as we stood there in confusion. We walked out of our way to support this garbage business. Don't waste your time.

We just walked into Velo Garage and they blasted us with an air horn and told us they were closed, even though there were 30-40 people inside and it was during their open hours.I’ve been there before and bought stuff from their shop and they were always cool, so I don’t know what happened. I don’t think I will be going back there again.

Question. Why does Josh Davison pretend to be gay and black? Appropriation much? He’s like 46 years old. I also heard he’s been spreading herpes all over town again with that greasy uncircumcised deformity of his. Terrible, just terrible.

Was there recently with a larger crew after a bike ride. The owner and worker were very rude to my friend after some confusion over a pizza while their system was down. My friend had thought they ordered 2 pizzas and when only 1 came out, they told the server that they thought they ordered two. The server said they didn’t but in a rude manner. So they went back up to order another pizza and while walking up, the owner and the server were both making rude comments about my friends. When confronted about making rude comments, there was no apology. Then later on, when the owner and server did eventually come back to talk to them, the owner said that the server is “usually a good guy, but just stressed out,” with no sincere apology. The server then came back to say he was stressed but also no apology. I understand that work can be stressful, but at no time is it ever acceptable to make fun of customers behind their back. Will never be coming back.

Stopped by for a quick bite after work. I wasn't sure what to expect on arrival as it is a bike shop and bar combination. Grabbed a pizza which was tasty but did take a bit to come out of the oven. It appeared to be a one man show which did delay service but it was a fun place to hang out.

Pizza is fantastic!!! It's one of those pizza places you keep thinking about long after you eat it. The beer selection is great too. Only complaint is the odd hours. Every time we want to go grab a pizza, it seems to be during their off hours. I do appreciate they have their updated hours on the answering machine when you call.

Velo Garage and Tap House has certainly found its niche that caters to bike enthusiasts and craft beer lovers, but it may not appeal to everyone. The beer selection is ok, but more expensive compared to other bars in the area. The pizzas are made from scratch, which is impressive, but they lacked the bold flavor I was expecting from made from scratch pizza. The bike shop is well-stocked, but all the bike options are very high-end and costly. I think the average price of a bike there was around $3000. I appreciate the concept and the atmosphere of this place, but I was not blown away by the food or the service.

I've only ever been here for a quick part for my bike, but decided to stop by for pizza and a couple beers. The beer selection was great - a lot of craft brews from here up through Iowa. The pizza wasn't anything to write home about, but it will definitely do the trick to make sure you aren't drinking on an empty stomach.

Velo Garage is great! The staff is always friendly and helpful. The bike repair and tune-ups are the best. And the Thursday ride groups are also the best. I'm so glad I found them, they've made my cycling world so much better. Thanks to all!

Awesome place for both bikes and beer. Zeke is awesome. Just dropped some lower gears in my gravel bike... and I love it. Honest, knowledgable, and helpful service. Highly recommend. And it doesn't hurt Kiley's a Sooner. BOOMER!
