When a venue designed for cars and coffee has its own extensive line of merchandise, there is something to be said about the statement it makes in the community. Proudly sporting the Petrolhead flame on shorts, caps, and even sandals, a steady stream of racing fans and coffee junkies alike line up daily for their fix of high-stakes motorsports and premium caffeine. Nestled in Hartford’s vibrant Parkville neighborhood, Petrolhead Café is more than just a pit stop for coffee lovers; it’s a hub for motor enthusiasts. With racing simulators, big-screen TVs broadcasting everything from Moto GP to Formula 1, and a menu offering everything from craft coffee to smoked brisket, the café creates a space where passion for speed and premium coffee converge.
Design
The setting is a chaotic fusion of rustic, industrial, warehouse, and urban design, sporting everything from a backlit bar to a strangely appropriate piano. Curves are celebrated here; the space seems circular but vast at the same time.
Thick wood-planked ceilings give way to diagonal rows of hanging sodium lamps, shedding yellow light vainly against the neon green glowing background of the urban seating centerpiece that is the coffee bar. The interplay of warm and cool tones creates a striking contrast, pulling attention toward the bar while still allowing the other elements their glory. This deliberate fusion of industrial grit and modern design ties the café’s aesthetic together, making the environment as engaging as the racing it celebrates.

The sharp diagonal cut of the grey metal back support is just one well designed element of this edgy modern and urban piece. Each exposed bolt adds to the factory-inspired character of the chair, accented by the wood seat and back that hint at subtle rustic influence. Easily at home in a warehouse bar or urban hotspot, it provides a striking edge to a range of modern venues.
