EVERY SUNDAY MORNING [weather permitting!] we welcome all Pre-1980 classics to join our casual & low-key coffee cruise.
Since 2015, this is how we celebrate classic cars, trucks & other vehicles as a vital part of automotive history; stepping away from the modern world for a few hours to discuss how these marvels have stood the test of time while consuming coffee & pastries.
Our primary focus is to appreciate what we have, along with sharing ways to maintain these vehicles, and even debate how to improve them.
If such an idea is of interest to you, then drive YOUR classic over to Plummer St. (between Tampa & Corbin avenues), turn south on Shirley Ave. and pull into that first driveway on the right (behind the bank), and bring a chair!
Food & beverages are available early as as 5:00 a.m. from both Western Bagel and Starbucks; Corner Bakery opens at 7 o’clock. Earliest of us arrive at 6:00 a.m., set up our chairs and chat for the next 4-5 hours; so if you’re an early-riser, bring out your classic(s) and join us on Sunday morning!
