Bought a dutch-style bike from here today with a lock and the staff were so friendly and professional! They offered to fit the lock to the frame and adjust the seat and handlebars to me free of charge.
Overall a great experience. 10/10

Cannot recommend this shop more. Pleasant knowledgeable staff. Used them a couple of times for children’s and cargo bikes. Seem to be priced reasonably and only recommend what needs to be done. Will be back soon again.
D. C.
Just a great bike and repair shop. They fixed my front brake and made the bike feel like new in an afternoon. Great service , lovely to deal with. Will definitely be using this place for servicing my bike.

Love this shop, I bought my bike here just over a year ago and the guys (I usually get helped by Andrew) are always there to help me when I need it. I love the option of the care plan which I also have! 10/10 recommend for first time bike buyers like I was 😁

I purchased a volt metro e/bicycle 🚲 from fudges cycles in 2016. Then i wanted to get it back on the road after not using it for about a year. Then i went to charge the battery up and it would not take a charge.? Then i took it to fudges cycles to get the problem sorted out. Then it was a process of eliminations. Then it had to be one of 3 things the battery, charger, or the fuse. It did take some time to resolve but that wasn't a problem. In the end it was the battery that failed. Then they ordered me a new battery in from volt. Now the bike runs like a gem back to normal. Many thanks to Andrew, Chris, and all the team for all of your input into this process. Would highly recommend this cycle shop to anyone wanting to purchase a bicycle of any type.

Absolutely Go-to bike shop! Professional and friendly! Always helpful! Great 5 star service! A week ago I bought a new bike there as my previous one got stolen! The guys helped me forget about the loss! Arranged a new one like to like - my insurance paid for all! Today I got a puncture - went there after 5 pm - not only did they fix it within a few minutes, but also charged me £0.00 - totally free! I do recommend Fudges Cycles shop in Chiswick to everyone! They always create magic experience!

These guys are super helpful and very knowledgable. Helped us source a Babboe bike, which they made a very straight forward and pain less process.

Really nice staff. Chain had broken whilst cycling through Kew to Ealing and had to walk up to chiswick to see if I could get it repaired before cycling home. They did it immediately for me and 30 mins later back on the road. Excellent service and will definitely recommend them to friends.

The shop is open during lockdown. Our bike hasn’t had anything done to it since it was bought in 2009. We had the full service and clean, together with new tyres, chain and hub and brake blocks front and rear. Fudges also fitted a new rear brake cable too. The bike now rides perfectly and looks very good for its age (see photo). All the staff were pleasant and helpful, explaining the costs beforehand including recommending the new chain and hub. This meant there were no nasty surprises when we got the bill. I’m sure the bike will be good for many years to come and we’re very happy with the work done.

Excellent, Andrew recommended this biycle to me from his father's 'Cycle Store ' on Uxbridge Road for the time I required it and my budget getting back on my bike after 35 years has been a life saver. Davie served me helped kit out with Helmet, front, rear lights, appropriate basket for the Horizon Probike...and d-Lock.. Highly recommend everyone at this store ..very knowledgeable, and have helped me so much in the last 3 months ..Guys you 'ROCK' also Billie I think was name or Rick thanks for fitting rack, mirror and the part of stand that became dislodged...would recommend this shop to anyone 'getting back on biycle' after some time, simply the 'BEST'
M. H.
Fantastic, knowledgeable staff who really know what they're talking about. Before visiting here, I went to Halfords up the road (seriously, don't bother going there). Great recommendations for buying a bike plus lock and helmet. They were all professional and set everything up, and I walked out with the bike soon after. Very pleased. Have since gone back a couple of times to ask questions and have never felt any trouble. It's so refreshing to see staff actually enjoying their jobs and helping people with their expertise. I'll be recommending you to friends whenever they need a bike! Keep up the good work! Your team are doing a too job in the current situation.
M. R.
Amazing service and superb professionalism. I asked them to fit my swytchbike electric kit. As well as maintenance work. They did a remarkable job. It was the same bike I bought in 2008. Excellent team.
a. B.
Very friendly, knowledgeable and highly affordable. Only £45 for a full service; something that could potentially save your life and which ought to be done about every 6 months. This will definitely be my bike shop of choice in the future. 🕉
M. G.
Amazing service. Will and Chris were so helpful. These guys are passionate about bikes and know what they are doing. Highly recommended. Professor Michael Gatzoulis
A. B.
I’ve been servicing my bike for years but this is by far the best most friendly bike service I have had so far. My bike feels like new. Never had this feeling in the 6 years of servicing it in other places before. The guys are super friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve serviced two bikes with them in a week and both run like new. Can’t recommend this place enough.
M. B.
Fantastic customer service from t he moment I walked in. I was only buying accessories but was given undivided time and attention from the staff members serving me. Also got what I wanted for better value than the chain store I’d been to earlier(and got no service!)
Highly recommend. Nice to see people who care about their products and customers.
A. B.
We recently purchased two bikes for holiday touring.
They were very thorough and talked us through all options available spending a long time to help us get the best bikes for our requirements. Nothing was too much trouble and they really gave an excellent service. I would thoroughly recommend to visit them and have a chat before purchasing any bike. So helpful and professional.
Thanks Kieran and the rest of the team.

UPDATE:
I've allotted an extra star due to the great customer service I recieved today.
I was looking for advice for reassembling my bike and the member of staff who dealt with me answered all my questions with courtesy and enthusiasm.
Really appreciated this. Thank you.
Poor customer service.
Since I became a regular customer in the last month, I must admit that my general dealings with the staff here have left me feeling unsatisfied.
A recent issue I had was after having my handlebars adjusted.
When I got my bike back, I realised that my front light was missing.
It took Fudges 2 days to remedy this situation.
- During this process, there was never an apology.
In fact, I was made to feel as though I was inconveniencing them!
Over the last 30 days, Fudges has done nearly £100 worth of work on my bike.
(Replacing a bottom bracket, adjusting my handle bar stem and replacing my pedals.)
I would have though that a returning customer like myself would have been treated with more courtesy and respect.
P.S
Depending on who you deal drastically changes the calibre of customer service and technical experience.
On multiple occasions I've had different technicians unknowingly contradict their colleague's previous hypothesis.
m. m.
All good, had a great selection of accessories to replace a stolen saddle & post, helpful on the phone and in store..
C. M.
Fantastic Service!
The guys in Fudges are great! They're so helpful and they went above and beyond when servicing the breaks on my bike.It feels like a new bike and I rode away with a smile :) I couldn't recommend them more! Thank you guys!
P. B.
A first class operation. Had full service on a very old Brompton and required a new back locking system. Nothing to difficult for these guy's. All completed and bike as good as new.
M. A.
Dropped in last week for a repair after a rear wheel spoke had come loose. Lodged itself in the sprocket and popped up through the rim and punctured the inner-tube. Bike fixed and repaired for a reasonable price. In fact they must have done a mini-service as the bike hasn't ridden so well in months! Friendly and knowledgeable guys with good sense of humour.
S. N.
Fantastic shop. I purchased a brand new bike from them after they were able to match a promotional price of an online shop. Yes an online store would have dumped it on my doorstep; but Fudge got it delivered to the shop within two days, made changes to it to fit it to me/ sorted pedals etc and provide me advice (with a smile) and all for FREE. Plus they will provide me with a FREE 6 week service! Andrew and James were great - their customer service was exceptional. We've used them for other purchases/ advice too and I FIRMLY recommend.
A. S.
Such a great shop. As you'd hope, all the staff at Fudge and Sons are completely into bikes and it really comes across - they couldn't have been more helpful. A big thanks to Elliot for ordering in my bike and building it up, it suits me down to the ground. While I was there my girlfriend decided to get a bike too as the guys were so helpful in advising her which one would suit her - no pressure at all, just great advice. I'd recommend this shop to anyone who wants a good deal and a personal service. Thanks.
M. S.
Highly recommend, staff are so knowledgable and helpful. Took an old bike in that was handed down to me and they helped me upgrade a few items. Served by James, he took time to explain everything and even adjusted a few things on my bike free of charge. I will always go here from now on and can honestly say the prices are more than reasonable and service is second to none!
C. J.
Really great service, possibly the best I've ever received in a bike shop! Knowable staff who put my new mudguards on for free (really appreciate it as it would have taken me an age) and gave my brakes/ gears/ pedals a tighten. Glad to have found a fab local London shop, I'll be back soon.
R. H.
Very helpful and polite staff. I was looking for a particular bike and went in here by chance after being messed around by Evans. They had the bike and went beyond what they had to do in order for me to have a comfortable test ride. Have since been back for services and have always been happy.
M. S.
Very helpful and courteous staff, the best mechanics on site. It is refreshing to visit a shop where the staff are keen cyclists and knowledgeable about cycling kit. After doing research, I have found that their prices can't be beat. I would highly recommend this shop for both new bike purchases or repairs.
A. R.
Great cycle store, had lots more choice than the other chain stores and great prices. Staff super attentive and friendly. Was looking for inexpensive bike for my daughter. They had one in stock ready to go. The other shop i had to wait a week for them to build it.
D. G.
There are at least 10 bike stores nearer to my flat than them but I choose to travel because the service is so good.
They regularly take my bike in at short notice (it is much easier to get your bike seen than other independents and chains) and it is always ready at precisely the time stated.
Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and they have matched prices on deals available at bigger chains.
M. E.
Fudge & Sons really do provide great service. From the care shown over maintaining my bike or tenaciously chasing down a replacement jacket under warranty for me, I've always been impressed by the attitude of the guys in-store. Definitely the place to go if you value good service.
F. W.
My husband and I were just passing by this week-end and enter the store with no real intention to buy on the day. It happened that they had exactly what we were looking for but planning to buy next year: a second hand folding bike. The service was so good, the young man who attended to us was full of knowledge and very friendly and you could see he loved bikes; he told us what to do with our old bike. Talk about the extra mile, that's what we got there. This is a good local business to support.

Disaster struck last week when I found my beautiful Giant bicycle had had its cables cut and wheels stolen, but the amazing staff of Fudge Cycles quickly put my mind at ease.
Extremely informed, they took me through the various options available to me and, after finally settling on a plan, had my bike ready for me the next day in better condition than it had been when it was new!!
At stressful times like these it makes such a difference to have friendly, experienced and passionate staff to guide you through it.
HUGE recommendation from me! Wouldn't go anywhere else. *****
E. n.
Fudge and Sons is an excellent local bike shop, which provides a fantastic service.
I will be cycling 4000 miles around New Zealand and the staff have gone out of their way to make sure I am as prepared as I can be.
If there's anything you are unsure of, the team, particularly Andrew and Jay, will be able to advise you on the best course of action.
Spend here rather than at the big chains, it's worth it!
N. S.
Fixed my gears really quickly but also were really knowledgeable about their products and helped me find the perfect pair of gloves for a cold winter cycle into work. #shoplocal
s. j.
Great shop and extremely helpful staff who seem to go out of their way to help you find what you want and explained the accessories on my bike like my light that can be charged and how long it can last. I paid a high price for my bike due to best quality and really happy will be using again.
J. L.
fantastically helpful staff - needed worrying nasty creaking noises sorted on my bike and they solved problem rapidly and soooo helpful. Had had my bike serviced there before when also excellent service, excellent value and cheerful knowledgeable staff. #supportlocalshops

I took my bike in for repairs to A Fudge & Sons. What can I say? The service was incredible. They repaired my tyre and wheel on the spot, were very attentive anf friendly which made me feel well at home. The staff were a good laugh but so proffesional. Excellent value for money too! Your bike is in great hands with these guys! You dont know what excellent customer service until you visit this shop! Amazing! Tam R.
R. B.
Staff are very helpful & friendly. Parts & bikes are good quality, would highly recommend them.
A. A.
Very professional and high quality customer service! They helped me tonight with my loose front wheel while they were closing the shop! You made my day guys! I'm sure we will see soon!
C. H.
A very good local bike shop. The staff are always very friendly. The mechanics are also quite knowledgable. Happy to leave my higher end bike with them for service or major repair.
B. E.
I have been using these guys for a few years. They have got me back on the road at short notice many times. Always give sound advise. Recently serviced my much used bike and did a fantastic job. well done.
A. P.
Pretty good. I've brought in a bike bought from an online retailer with which the shop is affiliated, the service was free of charge, so while I cannot speak about value, I have to say service was quick and polite, the mechanic even followed up on my call to let me know when it would be ready. Overall I am very positively impressed.
m. b.
Great shop. Got rubbish service from the big chain cycle shops so tried this small business. Brought 2 bikes there. Great price, helpful staff and happy with the bikes. Take no notice of the "rude" review...it's just not true at all.
A. B.
This is a great independent local bike shop. Friendly, knowledgeable staff who aren't just there to relieve you of your money. They even fitted a spare part free of charge. Would highly recommend them, so much better than going to your big faceless shops with uninterested, unknowledgeable staff (I'm looking at you Halfords!)

“We all make mistakes, so it’s all about how good is the recovery.”
Good example at Fudges today.
I collected bicycle today following service. Halfway down TGT applied brakes and there was a horrendous squeaking noise - bike clearly hadn’t been road-tested before return...
Rode back and problem was fixed in ten minutes with one set of brake pads FOC. Happy long-term customer.
A. D.
This shop is exactly what you need as a cyclist. Great service with nice and knowledgeable staffs.
T. M.
The team at Fudges are dominated by a cheerful can-do mentality. No-one is turned away, they try to accommodate every request the moment it's put to them. I've been a customer for over twenty years and will remain one as long as my well serviced bike keeps going.
R. P.
I needed a specialist bolt for my brakes. I visited the other bike shops in Chiswick who do not carry spares as it turns out, being major chains they only sell new items. Fudge and Sons were very helpful, gave a used part for free and replaced it free of charge. I will be using here from now on. Thank you Fudge and sons
M. W.
I was looking for a lady bike, in the first place I just wanted to have a look get an idea about the bike size.
After the friendly and professional staffs introduced and explained to me the function of the bike I was after, and the services they offered, I decided to purchase straightaway.
Great customer services definitely recommend !
M. H.
Hi. Have been 8 years in London and used Halfords for awhile. They had some knowledgeable guys from time to time but they moved on to smaller shops. So did I. I found Andrew and James at the Chiswick shop so helpful and not at all condescending. I would never go there before because the other manager was the opposite. The few times I did go there I found him pompous and extremely condescending. My friend had bought her three childrens' scooters and bicycles there and I actually purchased my used Dawes Diploma there in 2011 from a previous chap who was running the place, and my Vaude panniers as well. Unfortunately I stopped going there due to the lack of warmth I felt upon entering the shop. There was tension and a stifled atmosphere.
Now all that has changed. The place looks tidy and feels welcoming. Chris introduced himself to me and was very gracious, but Andrew and James form a good team and the backbone of a great shop. Thanks for your present and future service guys, it is very much appreciated.
A. C.
Had a service and new tyres put on my Brompton. The guys who helped me were friendly and knowledgeable and it was turned around in 24 hours from when I dropped it off. Felt like I had a new bike cycling home. Thanks again!
P. M.
Friendly staff, excellent service. Were able to do work on my Schindelhauer bike that others shops weren't up to. They also fixed my Pashley Guvnor where others failed. Excellent "can do" attitude.
Highly recommended!
C.
Excellent staff, especially Andrew & James, which served me several times. I bought my bike and accessories from "A Fudge & Sons". I was always served promptly and professionally. Definitely recommended!
N. I.
I've just been into Fudges Cycles in Chiswick High Road because my mudguard was falling off. They asked me to leave it for five minutes and when I came back, not only was it fixed, but they had straightened the mudguard and MADE NO CHARGE. I am a regular customer there, but the chap who helped me didn't know that. Now, that's what I call service!
o. A.
Good customer service although they didnt have mountain bike but other then that they are friendly good price as well.
k. s.
Fantastic bike shop. Staff are very helpful & super friendly. Parts & bikes are very high quality I Would highly recommend them.64
T. W.
very knowledgeable and skilled, fast, and friendly
Fudge & Sons is now my default shop for repairs and spares. I've used them twice since moving to the area recently and on both occasions they have gone above and beyond providing advice and service.
5 stars and 'strongly recommended'
F. W.
Shop staff friendly and helpful. Mechanic left my bike with a brake that rubbed on the wheel and the bolt done up so tight I wrecked my Allen key trying to undo it.
G. M.

The guys at Fudges are so lovely; they gave me great service, were super helpful and are always so friendly. Thank you for (always) fixing my frustratingly temperamental Raleigh :)
P. F.
Fantastic customer service with extremely knowledgable staff and a lovely selection of bikes and accessories for the whole family. I wouldn't go to any other bike shop in London.
J. B.
Brilliant service - excellent price - so much better than the surly and frankly rude shop-keep in the "London Cycle Workshop" - and Fudges were £50 cheaper too! If I need anything more, it's definitely Fudge for me!
s. g.
Amazing friendly staff! fitted my bike in to their very busy schedule and gave me awesome usb charging lights at a very good price! thanks guys!!
I. W.
