After a couple of years away from Pub Club having tried different venues with varying success throughout 2023 and 2024, a few of us trialled Caffeine & Machine earlier this week as a potential location to host once a month during the summer months.

The thinking behind having a monthly meet at C&M was that even when numbers are low, there's plenty of other petrolheads around with interesting cars to look at. And, of course, the venue is the home of where Pub Club started well over a decade ago when 300+ cars and sometimes even the odd helicopter would descend on the fields surrounding the West Meon Hut.

With Caffeine & Machine hosting daily events and the various other meets across the car calendars, those numbers won't ever be replicated. However, a monthly meet where likeminded individuals can get together and enjoy each other's cars is something we'd still like to do.

Everyone welcome, see you there! 6pm onwards.

Hi,

I had the same thought and managed a couple of meetings so far at C&M. I'd booked for Thursday as many people WFH on Friday anyway. Could combine them. I didn't post on other regional groups as I thought they might be a bit far.

Good idea, happy to combine them. Looks like Thursday's work better for those that have posted so far so I'm happy to change to Thrusday 30th April, at least for this month and then see how it goes.

We have over 400 members part of the original Pub Club FB group, so I will post on there as well and hopefully we get a half decent turnout. I'll see if a mod can change the date in the title of this thread.
