Portland Metro Area

The biggest Cars & Coffee in Oregon, hands down. Portland Cars & Coffee draws hundreds of cars every Saturday to Langer's Entertainment Center in Sherwood, just south of Beaverton. The massive parking lot accommodates everything from JDM imports to American muscle to European exotics. Year-round scheduling means you'll find diehards out even on drizzly winter mornings - but spring and summer weekends are when this event truly shines.

Pro tip: Arrive by 7:30 AM for a good spot. The lot fills up fast on sunny days.

Willamette Valley

Cars and Coffee McMinnville

📍 **McMinnville** (wine country)

📅 **Every Saturday**, 8:00 AM - 11:00 AM

McMinnville is famous for its wineries, but Saturday mornings belong to the car crowd. This weekly gathering in the heart of Oregon wine country draws an eclectic mix - think Porsches parked next to classic trucks, with vineyard-covered hills as your backdrop.

Woodburn Cars and Coffee

📅 **Every Sunday**, 8:00 AM - 11:00 AM (Year-round)

A Sunday morning alternative for those who can't make the Saturday events. Woodburn's weekly gathering welcomes all vehicles and features themed events every other week.
