Start your morning with handcrafted espresso and fresh-baked pastries, then spend the afternoon swapping stories over coffee with fellow enthusiasts. This is Elkin — where community fuels both engine and soul.
Cars & Coffee Elkin was born from a simple belief: the best conversations happen over great coffee and shared passions. What started as a weekly gathering for classic car enthusiasts has grown into Elkin's favorite morning destination.
Our baristas source single-origin beans from sustainable farms and roast them in small batches right here in the Triad. Every pastry is baked from scratch each morning — our sourdough croissants and cinnamon rolls are the reason people drive from three counties over.
Cars & Coffee Elkin is more than a café — it's a living, breathing community hub. From monthly car meets to charity fundraisers, there's always something happening.
Bring your ride and join us from 9am-12pm. Free coffee for all participants.
Learn the art of milk steaming and latte art. $15 per person, all levels welcome.
We partner with local nonprofits. Proceeds from select menu items go directly to community causes.
"I've been coming here every Saturday since they opened. The bourbon cinnamon roll is worth the drive from Boone, and the people here feel like family."
"The car shows are incredible — I've made friends with people who share my obsession with 60s muscle cars. Best community in the Triad, hands down."
"As a coffee snob, I'm picky about my pour over. This place gets it right every time. The baristas actually know their beans."
We're located in the heart of Elkin, right in the Triad. Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or staying for a car show, there's always a seat for you.
