Broomwagon opened in 2015 in the North Limestone neighborhood of Lexington, Kentucky, as a hybrid space combining a bicycle shop with a cafe. The business does not roast its own coffee but has historically served coffee sourced from the local roaster Magic Beans. It is documented for its unique community-focused model, which was inspired by the broom wagon vehicle in road racing that supports riders who fall behind.
