— A neighborhood coffee room, est. 2019

Slow coffee & warm mornings.

Tuku is a small cafe with big intentions. Single-origin espresso, sourdough pastries baked at dawn, and a wooden corner table that's almost always yours.

— Our story

A little room built for lingering.

Tuku started as a side project between two friends, an espresso machine kept in a garage, and a stubborn idea that a cafe could feel like someone's living room.

Six years in, we still roast in small batches, still bake every morning before the sun, and still know most of our regulars by their drink. Pull up a chair — we saved one for you.

Toasts & Bowls

Sourdough toast, ricotta & honey, house granola — light food that pairs with a long cup.

— Said by a regular
“It's the kind of place where you walk in cold and walk out feeling like you've been somewhere.”

— Come say hello

A cup is waiting on the counter.

Stop in for a quiet morning, a working afternoon, or the last cortado before close. We're on the corner of 4th & Linden.
