Nice little 50 mile run out on a lovely evening to a local 'Petrolhead Cafe' really nice spot out in the country .... was an upmarket eatery for 'ladies who lunch' but didn't survive covid ... been sadly empty since ... now opened up as a place for car-nuts to meet and hang out ... lounge area with big TVs showing racing and lots of bike and car related stuff ... there's nothing like that in the area so I reckon it stands a good chance .... they put on a Friday fish and chips night and had a really good turnout (think everyone wants to support the new venture) ... just everything across the board from a military '40 ford flathead to a race Lotus Exige via a plethora of porsches (and more Harleys than you could shake a stick at!) ..... before anyone nips ma heid about parking in the disabled bay, the place has well over the required allottment and the owner likes to put a selection of 'different' cars out front so directed me there ... plenty left.

All in all a fine evening out.

More general view before it filled up ... something for everyone ... no idea what the white car in the centre was ... looked like the offspring of a Morgan Aero and an XK 120 ... really odd

Part of the lounge area (again, before it filled up) ... one up on a greasy-spoon ... think it will be a real asset to the local car and bike scene.
