Our Journey So Far

Many of you will already know us from our existing locations. At Blanca Bikes, we’re proud of what we’ve built in Parcent with our Blanca Bikes Base Camp, which has become a favourite for cyclists near and far. Our Base Camp isn’t just a bike hire centre; it’s a complete experience with a coffee shop, bike hire service, a cycle workshop, our very own coffee roastery, and even a shop where cyclists can gear up for their adventures. We’ve also established a boutique hotel and bike hire service in the old town of Javea, giving visiting cyclists a welcoming place to stay and easy access to our high-quality Cervelo bikes.

But now, we’ve expanded, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to bring Blanca Bikes to Calpe. This new location now offers everything we’re known for—excellent bike services, quality Cervelo Bike Hire and outstanding coffee—in an even bigger and better space. Blanca Bikes Café in Calpe is now the go-to destination in Calpe for cyclists, coffee aficionados, and anyone who loves the atmosphere of a vibrant community café.

Welcome to Blanca Café, Calpe

Nestled in the charming old town of Calpe on Carrer Blasco Ibáñez, just minutes away from the major hotels, including Gran Hotel Sol y Mar, Blanca Café offers a unique mix of cycling services, Calpe Cervelo Bike Hire and delicious food and drink. We’ve invested nearly half a million euros into this project because we believe in what we’re creating. The café spans 290 square metres of beautifully designed space, giving you plenty of room to enjoy a fantastic coffee or tuck into a fresh meal while you plan your next ride. Whether you’re a cyclist living in the area, a visitor here on holiday in Calpe, or a local resident, we’ve built this café and cycling hub to serve as your home away from home.

At Blanca Café, we’re not just another coffee shop—we’re going to set a new standard for speciality coffee in Calpe. We serve our in-house roasted, ethically sourced single-origin coffee, prepared by our expert baristas who share our passion for the perfect cup. Whether you want a quick espresso to kickstart your day or a smooth, Brazilian flat white to savour, our coffee menu offers something for every palate. And if you’re hungry, our fresh food menu is available all day, featuring everything from eggs Florentine to healthy salads and hearty sandwiches. This is the kind of food that fuels you up for the day ahead, perfect for both cyclists and casual visitors.

The Ultimate Cycling Hub

Of course, Blanca Café is not just about coffee and food—it’s a full-service cycling hub. One of the key features of Blanca Café is its role as a Bike Rental Pick Up centre in Calpe. Now, booking your bike hire is easier than ever. Simply reserve your Cervelo online and then stroll down to the café in the morning to pick it up before heading out on your cycling adventure. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or just looking to experience the beautiful routes around Calpe for the first time, we’ve got you covered. But that’s just the start. We’re not just renting bikes—we’re selling them too! Our team is always on hand to help you find the perfect Cervelo bike, whether you’re upgrading your current ride or trying out something new. And because we know that cycling requires more than just the right bike, Blanca Café will also stock all the accessories you could need, from helmets and gloves to cycling jerseys and puncture kits. If you ever run into any mechanical issues during your ride, we’ve got that covered too. Our expert bike technicians will be available to handle repairs and get you back on the road in no time. At Blanca Café, we’re committed to keeping your cycling experience smooth and stress-free.

Blanca Bikes now have a cafe, workshop and rental centre in Parcent. I've been to the cafe a couple of times and the food is excellent as is the coffee. I was there again today and arrived in need of help as I had just crashed off my bike and was bleeding, sore, and with a rather broken bike. The staff were phenomenal, I didn't need to ask for help, they came to the rescue as soon as they saw my state (which wasn't terrible). A first Aid kit was quickly made available as was a comfortable place to recover. Coffee was brought to me, more staff came to offer assistance. The mechanic, who was about to finish for the day came to check over my bike. The rear mech had been pushed into the spokes and neither wheel was spinning properly. He quickly fixed all these issues. I had arranged for my partner to come pick me up and when the mechanic saw us starting to dismantle the bike to get it in the car, he rushed over to help us again, neatly packing it in for us. Sometimes it takes a little crisis to realise and remember there are some wonderful people in this world, today I was reminded of this. A very big thank you to all at Blanca Bikes :-)

Great stay here for 2 weeks. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Blancabikes looked after me and very well and took care of all my needs. This is a brilliant place to come to for training, and only being a 5 minute ride from the coast, you have all the cafes and restaurants you could ask for. I would seriously recommend to anyone looking a cycling getaway.

What a great place to rent a bicycle at Blanca Bikes to explore the area around Xabia (Javéa)! Perfect bikes of very high quality (I rented the Cervélo Solist Rival). And I very much liked the professionalism and kindness of Nigel who helped me getting this unforgettable experience!

We used Bianca bikes for a transfer from Alicante to Calpe, 4 people with 4 bike boxes. Super slick, the driver was waiting for us in arrivals at the airport and we were straight into the private bus parked outside. They even helped us with a mechanical in Parcent on our last day free of charge. Thank you.

This was my first experience on a bike camp and I would recommend Blanca Bikes for anyone interested in a great cycling adventure. The staff was great, breakfast every morning was world class, and the cycling in the Xabia area is world class.

Unreal 3 days riding with Blanca! A very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, something for everyone. We were a group of 4 medium / keen cyclists and couldn’t have been better - some stupidly nice routes around the area, the bikes we were given the best bikes we’ve ever ridden and the breakfast in the morning sorted us right out. Couldn’t recommend this enough! Cheers to Nigel Peter and the rest of the team for sorting us out
