Atlanta Tourism hosts first Cars & Coffee event of the season this Saturday

 

[May 15, 2023] 

The City of Atlanta Tourism Bureau announces its first car event of the year. Cars and Coffee on Route 66 will be May 20 from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Arch Street, between Race and Vine Street. Enjoy conversations with fellow car enthusiasts and see some neat cars! The event is free to attend.

Cruisers and visitors can enjoy the cars and the iconic downtown scenery. It is recommended that visitors bring a foldable chair if they would like to sit, as there is limited bench seating.

Cruisers can either drive-thru or walk over to Sip Shack (204 SW Arch Street) or stop into Missy’s Sweet Shoppe inside the Palms Grill Café to grab their drink and/or pastries.

Situated midway on Illinois’ Mother Road, Atlanta is an iconic Route 66 stop for those traveling the road to Santa Monica. The Cars & Coffee event will provide both travelers and locals the ability to display and view their cars. The event is free to attend and visitors are encouraged to stay and enjoy the cars, people, and food.

Cruisers and visitors can enjoy food and beverages at Sip Shack, Missy’s Sweet Shoppe inside the Palms Grill Café, and/or Chubby’s Bar & Grill.
