Trailyard Cafe

Valparaiso, IN

When Trailyard, a successful mountain bike shop, wanted to expand their services by offering a family-friendly restaurant, café and bar, they turned to the design-build team of FACET Architecture and Larson-Danielson Construction to bring their dream to life. The project included transforming an existing structure into 7,900 square feet of inviting restaurant and bar space. The design reflects Trailyard’s image as a community hub or bike and outdoor enthusiasts with a color scheme and materials reflecting the restaurant’s location near the Dunes National Park and Creekside Trails. A spacious deck offers outdoor seating for those wishing to take in Trailyard’s natural setting.
