The restaurant’s hip interior comprises concrete floors, industrial ceiling, and butcher paper table cloths on high and low table tops. In an attempt to appeal to the downtown’s tight-knit bike crowd, the restaurant features bike racks and a garage-like door that will allow food trucks to park and serve food into the restaurant space.
Another unique feature of Cycle is its chalk wall decorations that will be transient. The lobby and hallways of the restaurant would feature work of the hotel’s resident artists Kyle Jordre and Jenny Ignaszewski. The artists will contribute to the Cycle’s decor both in chalk and paint.
Cycle also refers to the hotel’s bike-friendly vibe being located next to the light rail. The restaurant is expected to have the state’s largest bike racks, and will also offer bicycle valet service on event nights.
The developers who bought the Lexington hotel are turning this revolving-door of a restaurant space into a short-term hot spot until they shut it down for a full hotel renovation.
