Cars and Coffee in the San Francisco Bay Area

How the week runs

The Bay Area week starts early. On the first and third Fridays, the Danville Livery hosts cars and coffee from 8:30am to 10am, with a firm 10am finish.

Saturdays rotate. JB Today Studios in San Ramon opens on the first Saturday from 9am to 11am. Le Pit Club meets in Orinda on the second and fourth Saturdays from 8am to 10am. Pre-Stage fills Lagoon Park at the Marin County Civic Center in San Rafael on the third Saturday from 8am to 10am. In Los Gatos, the BMW CCA Golden Gate Chapter posts Neue Klasse and Kaffee dates one at a time; the next are November 21 and December 19, 2026.

Sunday is the busiest morning. Le Pit Club runs Lafayette from 8am to 10am and Moraga from 10am to noon every week, so the two can be done back to back. Cars and Coffee Peninsula meets in Redwood City’s Woodside Plaza on the second Sunday from 7am to 10am. The Cobra Experience in Martinez holds Cars, Kids and Coffee on the third Sunday from 8:30am, and Loma Mar Motor Gathering takes the last Sunday in the coast-side redwoods.

The season

The Bay Area does not shut down for winter, but rain does. Pre-Stage runs year-round, rain or shine. Le Pit Club cancels all three of its Pit Stops in the rain. The Cobra Experience takes December, January and February off; its last 2026 meet is November 15. Loma Mar Motor Gathering runs March through October and returns on March 28, 2027, per its organizer.

What is held back, and why

Several well-known meets have no page yet because their organizers do not publish enough to check. Marin Cars and Coffee in Novato gives the first of the month and the Vintage Oaks address, but no hours. Cars and Coffee San Jose at California’s Finest Detail Supply posts each date by itself, and no November date was up on November 1. Willow Glen Coffee and Cars and Ronnie’s Morning Get Together in San Jose appear only on a car club’s calendar, with no organizer page found. Morgan Hill Cars and Coffee has an active organizer account that publishes no day or time.

Cars and Coffee Livermore ended its 2026 season in October, runs as a private event for its community and invited guests, and has not published 2027 dates. San Mateo Cars and Coffee at AutoVino in San Carlos lists no upcoming event. The BMW club’s San Francisco meets change venue every month. Mountain View Cars and Coffee appears only in directories. Each joins this page once its organizer confirms a schedule.

Before you drive

Every lot here belongs to someone: a shopping center, a café, a museum, the county. Danville Livery publishes a parking map and wants the meet over by 10am. Pre-Stage asks daily drivers to park outside its lot and bans selling of any kind. Le Pit Club asks for no burnouts and no loud revs. Arrive slowly and leave the same way.
