Any Coffee and Cars events this weekend in Menlo Park, CA?

Hi all - I used to occasionally drag my father to a Front Range, Colorado, Coffee and Cars which he enjoyed very much.

He’s 93 and is now in Menlo Park, CA. I don’t get to see him often, but I’ll be visiting him this weekend and am seeing a few references (no real details) about a Menlo Park, CA coffee and cars online and figured that would be something fun to do with him out there.

Anyone have info they can share?

Thanks in advance!

Facebook and Instagram would be better places to search. Nothing in Menlo Park but there's an event for exotics in San Carlos.

Also in Mountain View there's a regular C&C 1st Saturdays of each month:

I on the other hand will be at Laguna Seca for a track day.

Thanks, Pelican team!

I searched Facebook, only old threads regarding events in Menlo Park, the Gram is a good idea.

The suggestions/ideas posted are a good start!

I want to thank everyone who chimed in on this thread!

@Wildthing - your suggestion of the Mountain View event was perfect, not too far of a drive, mellow scene and not too crowded so easy for my 93 year old father to navigate using his cane, a perfect morning!

@ccalina + rattlecan - I would have loved to check out the Easy event, sounds like it is amazing. Perhaps in the future.

@Bucketlist - definitely looks like spring down your way! Snow this week for us folks in Colorado. I'm ready to carve some canyons in my '76, but will have to suffer skiing powder in Vail instead. I suppose I *could* move to Texas . . .

In the interest of closing this thread, here are some pics from the Mountain View event. Mostly American muscle, but some cool builds and the show stopper was a 1950's Aston Martin that was rescued from a warehouse in Kuwait, sold at auction in Switzerland and was purchased and being restored by a very interesting young guy (who casually mentioned to me his ownership of a few other BIG $$$ vehicles) who - given the location - probably had been involved in some very successful tech ventures or similar. Nice, humble and obviously very smart dude who loves wrenching on his own cars. Great to meet him.

Here are some pics of the event:
