Best Cars and Coffee Events in Washington 2026

# Best Cars and Coffee Events in Washington 2026

Washington has one of the strongest Cars and Coffee scenes in the Pacific Northwest. The Seattle metro has weekly gatherings on both sides of Lake Washington, the Eastside brings serious exotic-car energy, and cities from Tacoma to Spokane keep the calendar active well beyond the usual summer-only season.

Here is your 2026 guide to the best Cars and Coffee events across Washington.

Seattle and the Eastside

1. Exotics at Redmond Town Center - Redmond

Location: Redmond Town Center, 7525 166th Ave NE, Redmond, WA

When: Saturdays, spring through fall

Time: 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Best for: Exotic, rare, and high-performance cars

Exotics at Redmond Town Center is the headline event for Washington enthusiasts who want to see supercars, rare imports, and high-end performance machines in one place. The event is known as one of the largest weekly exotic-car gatherings north of Los Angeles, running weather-dependent from roughly mid-February through mid-November. If you are visiting Seattle and can only make one Saturday morning event, this is the one to prioritize.

2. Lake Washington Cars & Coffee - Seattle

Location: Madrona Park, 853 Lake Washington Boulevard, Seattle, WA

When: Sundays, year-round, rain or shine

Time: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Best for: A consistent Seattle weekly meet with lakefront scenery

Lake Washington Cars & Coffee gives Seattle a reliable Sunday morning option. The Madrona Park location puts the meet near one of the city's best driving corridors, with views, neighborhood roads, and easy access from central Seattle. The year-round, rain-or-shine format fits the Pacific Northwest perfectly: bring what you drive, bring a jacket, and expect a broad mix of enthusiasts.

3. Cars and Coffee Seattle - Shoreline

Location: Aurora Ave N & 167th St, Shoreline, WA

When: Saturdays, year-round

Time: 8:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Best for: North Seattle drivers and all-makes community energy

The Shoreline Cars and Coffee meet is a straightforward Saturday morning gathering just north of Seattle. It is less polished than the exotic-focused Redmond scene, but that is part of the appeal. Expect a more casual mix: daily-driven performance cars, classics, imports, muscle, and people who simply like starting the weekend around car people.

4. Bellevue Cars & Coffee - Bellevue

Location: Porsche Bellevue, 11910 NE 8th Street, Bellevue, WA

When: Monthly select Sundays in 2026

Time: 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Best for: Eastside enthusiasts, Porsche fans, and polished dealership-hosted meets

Bellevue Cars & Coffee moved from Lincoln Square to Porsche Bellevue, giving the event a dealership-hosted home in the heart of the Eastside. The monthly format makes each date feel a little more intentional, and the Bellevue audience usually means a strong showing from modern performance cars, European marques, and well-kept weekend drivers.

South Sound and Olympia

5. Tacoma Cars & Coffee - Tacoma

Location: Titlow Park, 8425 6th Ave, Tacoma, WA

When: First and third Saturdays

Time: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Best for: A short, friendly South Sound morning meet

Tacoma Cars & Coffee keeps things simple: a biweekly Saturday gathering at Titlow Park, open to all cars and enthusiasts. The one-hour window makes it easy to pair with a waterfront drive, breakfast stop, or a longer cruise toward Gig Harbor or Point Defiance.

6. Steamboat Island Cars & Coffee - Olympia

Location: Urraco Coffee Co. Steamboat Island, 6593 33rd Ave NW, Olympia, WA

When: Monthly select Saturdays in 2026

Time: 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM

Best for: Olympia-area drivers and coffee-shop meet atmosphere

Olympia's Cars & Coffee scene now centers on Urraco Coffee Co. on Steamboat Island after moving from the Capital Mall area. The coffee-shop setting gives the meet a more destination-driven feel and makes it a good option for drivers coming from Olympia, Tumwater, Lacey, and the broader South Sound.

North and Eastern Washington

7. Everett Cars & Coffee - Everett

Location: South Point Plaza, 10203 Evergreen Way, Everett, WA

When: Sundays, year-round

Time: 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Best for: North Puget Sound drivers who want a longer Sunday window

Everett Cars & Coffee runs every Sunday and has one of the longest time windows in the state. The 10 AM to 2 PM schedule is forgiving if you are driving in from Snohomish County, north Seattle, or Skagit-area communities. All vehicles are welcome, which usually makes for a practical, varied mix rather than a narrow marque-specific gathering.

8. Spokane Cars & Coffee - Spokane Valley

Location: Blissful Blends, 12402 E Saltese Rd, Spokane Valley, WA

When: Sundays, year-round

Time: 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

Best for: Eastern Washington enthusiasts and afternoon weekend meets

Spokane Cars & Coffee gives Eastern Washington a dependable weekly option. The Sunday afternoon timing is unusual for Cars and Coffee, but it works well in a region where winter mornings can be rough and many enthusiasts travel longer distances. Expect all makes and models, from domestic muscle and trucks to imports and classics.

Tips for Washington Cars and Coffee

- **Watch the weather, but do not wait for perfect weather.** Several Washington meets run year-round or rain-or-shine, so the local scene is used to damp mornings.

- **Arrive early for Redmond.** Exotic-heavy events draw crowds, and the best cars often show up near the start.

- **Use the bridges strategically.** Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, and Shoreline are close on a map but traffic can change the plan quickly.

- **Make it a drive day.** Lake Washington Boulevard, Chuckanut Drive, the roads around Gig Harbor, and routes toward the Cascades all pair well with a morning meet.

- **Confirm organizer updates before leaving.** Even verified recurring meets can shift locations, pause for weather, or adjust for venue conflicts.

The Washington Car Scene in 2026

Washington's Cars and Coffee culture is strong because it is not built around just one type of car. Redmond brings the exotics. Seattle and Shoreline bring casual weekly consistency. Tacoma and Olympia keep the South Sound involved. Everett and Spokane make sure the scene is not limited to the core Seattle metro.

Whether you are chasing rare supercars at Redmond Town Center or just looking for a low-pressure Sunday morning meet near home, Washington has a deep 2026 Cars and Coffee calendar worth exploring.
