San Carlos's one-of-a-kind venue blending a working car museum, open-air Wine Garden, and showroom bar.
Some venues serve wine. Some display extraordinary automobiles. Auto Vino Events Venue does both simultaneously, and the combination is genuinely unlike anything else on the San Francisco Peninsula. Housed at 380 Industrial Rd in San Carlos, this working car museum doubles as a sophisticated wine destination, where estate-grown wine pours alongside wood-fired cuisine while rare machines gleam under the lights of a proper showroom.
The outdoor Wine Garden sets the tone for the experience: open-air seating, live music on select evenings, and rotating selections from local vineyards. Guests who wander into the warehouse discover the other half of the story, extraordinary collector cars that give the whole place its electric, unexpected energy. It is the kind of spot that earns the phrase "hidden gem" from first-time visitors and keeps regulars coming back month after month.
With a perfect 5.0 rating across 140 reviews, Auto Vino has built a loyal following through its monthly Cars & Cabernet events, Friday happy hours, and weekend tastings. Private celebrations and corporate gatherings fill the calendar alongside the public programming, making this one of the most versatile and memorable event spaces in the Bay Area.
Auto Vino offers a full calendar of public events and a complete private event program for groups of every size.
