We've always known that the Arena District is one of our most popular locations. That was the response in a survey we ran late last year, but you don't need to have survey results to see that people LOVE being on Nationwide Boulevard in the heart of the city for Columbus Cars and Coffee!

We want to send a big THANK YOU to Nationwide Realty Investors for partnering with us on the return of the Arena District Meet, we truly could not do the event without their support.

In addition, Libertas Wealth Management presented the event this year, and we thank Adam and his colleagues for making these opportunities possible!

Of course, the entire season would not be possible without our season sponsors; MAG, ESOTERIC, Di Lusso Real Estate, Premier Bank, The Garage Door Guy, and Libertas Wealth Management. Please support these great companies! 

DJ Axcess and Backroom Coffee Roasters each contributed to the atmosphere with their respective talents and they deserve our recognition as well.

A highlight of the show this year, Genius Garage brought their Lotus T125 and their Lykan HyperSport to share with us. Thanks to Casey and Taylor Putsch and their team for making the trip to Columbus. We always enjoy seeing them!

Finally, a special shout out to Kristen McEnery, our project manager and coordinator of all permits and paperwork. Kristen works behind the scenes to make these large-scale events happen and her talents are vital to our success. Thank you, Kristen!

​Until next time...

We were flattered to be asked by Polaris Fashion Place to bring a Cars and Coffee meet to their location on Fathers Day weekend.

The mall is a great, central location within the city, with nearly limitless parking, so we knew the turnout would be excellent for the event.

Wow, the turnout was truly amazing. The perfect, mild weather helped to bring 400+ cars to the meet, ranging from a Lola T70 to a McLaren 765LT Spider and an incredibly diverse array of cars in between.

Thanks to all of the car owners who participated, and thanks as always to our amazing season sponsors! 

Our first Members Only event of the year, reserved for our 100 VIP members, was a great success!

The day started with coffee and bagels at ESOTERIC followed by a 2-hour drive NE to Dundee, Ohio for a tour of the Created Hardwood workshop. Phil and his team from Created Hardwood showed us the many stunning products they're making.

After the tour and a cutting board giveaway, we drove about 30 minutes to Wooly Pig Farm Brewery for lunch. 

Thanks to everyone who joined us for this event, and special thanks to Todd Cooperider at ESOTERIC, Phil Hicks at Created Hardwood, and the entire team at Wooly Pig Farm Brewery for helping to make our Saturday so much fun!

Todd, Zack, and Dan from ESOTERIC always roll out the red carpet for our meets. From amazing display cars to interesting product displays and demos, these guys know how to host a Cars and Coffee meet!

The weather wasn't exactly on our side this morning, with chilly temps and intermittent rain, but we made the most of it and had a respectable turnout with plenty of great cars to look at.

Midwestern Auto Group brought their Ferrari Roma and one of BMW's latest models, the iX while The Garage Door Guy served the coffee!

Thanks to everyone who joined us today!

Season 14 is here and brought with it a record turnout at MAG!

We completely filled the Midwestern Auto Group campus from end to end with all kinds of cars thanks to a beautiful day and lots of pent up demand for Columbus Cars and Coffee season to begin in Central Ohio.

While the cars rolled in for two hours, DJ Axcess kept the music going as Backroom Coffee Roasters kept the coffee flowing. 

Thanks to our season sponsors for making it all possible!

​We'll see you May 7 at ESOTERIC!

Wow, what a year! We can't believe it's over, but Season 13 concluded on November 13 with a stunning turnout at Midwestern Auto Group in Dublin!

Thanks to the thousands of people who participated in the season and made it great, in particular our sponsors, without whom we simply could not deliver the experiences we craft each month.

There will be some more season wrap-up content coming soon. For now, we just wanted to express our gratitude.

When we first started doing Cars and Coffee meets on Karmar Court in New Albany, ESOTERIC was only using about half the building, and our meets were much smaller than they are today.

Fast forward to Season 13, ESOTERIC is bursting at the seams with projects doing detailing, paint protection film, ceramic coating, wheels and exhaust systems, and much more, and our meets have grown to a point where we take over the entire business park where their shop is located.

Thanks to Todd Cooperider, Zack Campbell, Dan Roth, and the rest of the ESOTERIC family for their hospitality! 

Support ESOTERIC by visiting their website and learn how they can enhance and protect your cars with their world-class products, services, and customer service.

We were blown away by the turnout on Saturday, July 24 for our first-ever meet at Midwestern Auto Group in Dublin! 

The combination of perfect weather, a large, scenic campus, and hundreds of gorgeous cars created one of the best meets we've had in years, and we couldn't have done it without our hosts at MAG. Thanks to Giovanni, Tim, Spencer, and the rest of the MAG team for all they did!

We will return to this location a couple more times this season, on September 25 and October 16.

Stay tuned to our Instagram page for more photos from the day.

We want to thank the entire team at Cherry Valley Hotel for making it possible to host a Cars and Coffee meet at their fantastic facility!

Although the weather did not cooperate, we made use of the indoor event center to keep the party going, and the results were a fun Saturday morning of cars, coffee, and community as we supported Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.

Our special guest from Make-A-Wish, Patrick, selected two of his favorite cars for special honors, a highlight of the day!

The Fort Wayne Driving Club made an impressive entrance into our June 5th "Mega Meet" at 3 Easton Oval! 

Over 100 cars left Fort Wayne early in the morning for a multi-hour cruise to Columbus, all to join us for a beautiful morning of Cars and Coffee.

Thank you to Jared Lencke from Fort Wayne Driving Club for his effort in putting the plan together, as well as Brad Kitchen for hosting us at 3 Easton Oval again!
