34Morning Cruise at Daikanyama T-Site
Daikanyama T-Site, the Tsutaya Books complex in Shibuya, holds Morning Cruise in its own car park, usually on the second Sunday of the month from 7 to 9am. Each edition has a theme — anything from the Porsche 911 or Bugatti to green cars — and entry is by advance registration only, with places filling quickly. The bookshop's house rules ban revving, loud audio, waiting on nearby streets or in convenience-store car parks, temporary plates and illegally modified cars. The Starbucks on site opens at 7am and the bookshop at 9.
Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort
Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort sits at Deals Gap, home of the Tail of the Dragon on U.S. 129, in the Great Smoky Mountains on the North Carolina–Tennessee state line; locals call it simply “the Gap.” It has a store, the Dragon's Den Grill, a motel and camping, and the Tree of Shame, a makeshift shrine started in the 1980s by a group of Harley riders and hung with parts left behind by riders the Dragon caught out. The store, grill and motel run seasonally; the 2026 season opened on February 27.
Alice's Restaurant
Alice's Restaurant stands among the redwoods at 17288 Skyline Boulevard in Woodside, and it is a regular stop for motorcyclists, hikers and visitors. The building went up in the early 1900s as a general store serving the logging industry, in an area then called Four Corners; it became a restaurant in the 1950s and took its name from Alice Taylor, who bought it in the 1960s. It is family owned, open every day, and has a gas station alongside.
The Rock Store
The Rock Store sits on Mulholland Highway in Cornell, halfway between Malibu and Calabasas. The building, made entirely of volcanic rock, was a stagecoach stop in the 1910s; Ed and Veronica Savko bought it in 1961 and made it a small-town grocery, and the family still runs it as a restaurant. It opens Friday to Sunday for breakfast and lunch, when riders and drivers stop in, and on weekends the lot out front fills with motorcycles.
Daikoku PA
Daikoku PA is a Shuto Expressway parking area inside Daikoku Junction on Daikoku Futō in Yokohama, where the K5 Daikoku Route meets the Bayshore Route. The Drive has called it “a world-famous car meet spot.” It can only be reached by car on the expressway — taxis and buses don't stop there — and visitors climbing the highway fences to get in, along with crowded nights, have brought police checks and national news coverage. The operator lists 335 standard parking spaces.
Caffeine&Machine: The Bowl
The Bedfordshire Caffeine&Machine venue occupies a former pub near Ampthill, with food, drink and a display yard for visiting cars and motorcycles. Its calendar provides the detail on themed sessions and attendance. It works as a social destination for enthusiasts, with entry and ticket arrangements handled by the venue rather than an informal open invitation.
Caffeine&Machine: The Hut
The Hampshire home of Caffeine&Machine brings the group's car-and-bike gathering format to a revived pub at West Meon Hut. Visitors can combine the display yard with the venue's food and drink offering. The Hut publishes its own events and uses ticketing arrangements for relevant sessions; check the current calendar before attending.
Ace Cafe London
A London cafe with an active calendar spanning car meets, motorcycles and music. Manufacturer and enthusiast gatherings give different nights their own character, making the current monthly schedule more useful than a generic recommendation to turn up. The official site lists what's on and provides the venue's approach and visitor information.
Cook's Corner
A Trabuco Canyon restaurant and biker gathering spot with food, music and a published events calendar. Motorcycles are central to the venue's own identity. Check the official calendar for the session you want to attend and treat the surrounding roads and neighboring properties as ordinary shared public space.
Cars & Coffee Palm Beach
Despite the Palm Beach name, the organizer's current FAQ places this meet at the Boca Raton Innovation Campus. The event welcomes a broad range of cars, with separate arrangements for vehicle entry and spectators. Use the official FAQ and current event listing for parking costs and access details instead of older listings for previous venues.
Cars and Coffee Miami at Miami International Mall
Miami International Mall is one of the locations on Cars and Coffee Miami's published 2026 schedule. The organizer also uses other venues, so match the date to the location before planning a visit. This listing identifies the Doral mall gathering; the official calendar carries the current attendance and registration details.
South OC Cars and Coffee
A recurring Saturday gathering at the Outlets at San Clemente, with everything from modified street cars to sports cars and exotics. The organizer welcomes spectators as well as display cars. Its own website carries the attendance rules and weekly notices; check those before visiting, as the outlet parking lot is also a working shopping destination.
Caffeine & Octane Atlanta
An all-makes gathering at Town Center at Cobb in Kennesaw, bringing Atlanta-area car culture into one recurring meet. Standard spectator attendance is free according to the organizer, with separate arrangements for specialty display areas. The official Atlanta event page is the place to check the next date, parking areas and any changes to access.
Caffeine&Machine: The Hill
Caffeine&Machine's Warwickshire home pairs food and drink with a yard built around car and motorcycle culture. The Hill gives owners a destination beyond a temporary parking-lot meet, with themed gatherings on its events calendar. Entry arrangements vary by session, so consult the venue's current listing and ticket requirements before planning a visit.
Cars and Coffee Concord
Charlotte Motor Speedway hosts this recurring gathering in its Fan Zone. The published calendar includes monthly 2026 dates and distinguishes the ordinary meet from special AutoFair arrangements. It is a way to see enthusiast cars at a motorsport venue without confusing parking-lot display access with permission to drive on the circuit.
Portland Cars & Coffee
A year-round Saturday gathering at Langers Fun Center in Sherwood. Portland Cars & Coffee describes itself as an inclusive community of enthusiasts and publishes a specific entrance plan for its privately owned host lot. Check the location page as well as the calendar: the organizer restricts which entrance attendees may use.
Coffee and Cars at POST Houston
POST Houston is a published venue for Coffee and Cars, whose calendar mixes broad car gatherings with manufacturer-themed editions. The September 2026 listing features Porsche. This is a specific meeting location, rather than a promise that every Coffee and Cars event uses the same venue; check the organizer's calendar for the edition you plan to attend.

Bonneville Salt Flats
A BLM-managed salt pan the agency describes as "about 12 miles long and 5 miles wide" across "a 30,000 acre expanse of hard, white salt crust on the western edge of the Great Salt Lake Basin," roughly 120 miles west of Salt Lake City. BLM states it has served as "the racing grounds for generations of land speed racers from around the world," and is also used for archery competitions, running races, photography and scientific research. BLM's published directions are from Interstate 80 Exit 4 near Wendover, following signs to the Speedway and turning onto Leppy Pass Road.

Whiteface Veterans Memorial Highway
A paved toll road in the Adirondacks that, in the operator's words, "rises over 2,300 feet in five miles from the Toll House." The operator describes the view from the top as "a truly spectacular 360-degree, panoramic view" spanning "hundreds of miles of wildland reaching as far as Vermont and Canada." Open seasonally.

Grandfather Mountain
Privately operated nature park near the Blue Ridge Parkway reached by a two-mile entrance road that climbs to the summit area, where the Mile High Swinging Bridge and viewing points are located. Mildred's Grill and picnic areas sit near the top.

Exotics at Redmond Town Center
A weekly Saturday morning gathering at Redmond Town Center, held 9-11 AM from April through mid-October. The organisers describe it as "an informal weekly gathering of exotic and very rare cars that draws owner and spectators together for mutual enjoyment of all things car-related," and state on their own site that they are not a Cars and Coffee. The published location is the corner of 168th Avenue NE and Bear Creek Parkway; no street number is given.

Lawn Events are open to all and spectators may arrive at any time during the show.
