The Ace is more than just a cafe, it's a shared identity and a vital point in a culture that will continue to thrive and evolve in decades to come. It has been there for the motoring and rock ‘n’ roll community from the beginning and intends to stay for as long as it’s needed.

For generations, the Ace Cafe has been the gathering place for those passionate about rock 'n' roll culture and a love of fast moving metal. Fuelling motorists and their vehicles since 1938;

two wheels, four wheels and frankly anything with an engine, the Ace Cafe has been there from the beginning and today continues to lead the way.

The Ace is an event space. A music venue. A rallying point for good times, where passionate people meet with motors galore and rock n' roll.

It is a culture infused with thrills and speed. And more than being a destination and location, it is a community. Utilitarian, humanitarian, egalitarian and libertarian. Self-organising and self-aware. A place where determined racers, enthusiasts, riders, drivers and music lovers from all over the world get together.

A LIVING SYMBOL IN TODAY’S CULTURE THAT SPEED STILL MATTERS.
