There’s change afoot at Doddington. Our Coffee Shop and Giant Store Lincoln Bike Shop are on the move whilst we work on exciting new projects to enhance our offer and experience for customers.
The Coffee Shop is now closed for a few days, 27-29 March, and will reopen on 30 March in a new temporary pop-up just next door. The Doddington Café remains open as usual during this time.
The Giant Lincoln Bike Shop will be closed 3-5 April, reopening on 6 April in a temporary location in the Stable Yard Gallery, AKA the Bauble Barn, opposite the Wagon Shed.
We look forward to sharing more information soon.
