The Tully’s at 8551 Greenwood Ave. N. is no more. The windows are papered over and the phone is going unanswered. While the store is still listed on the Tully’s Web site, Tully’s corporate staff confirmed today the company-owned store permanently closed on Friday.
Thanks, Anna, for the tip!
The next question is whether this is part of a larger closure plan, considering Starbucks is closing 616 stores, including a bunch in Australia. We’ve asked and are awaiting an answer.
Don’t panic though, there’s plenty of other opportunities to find caffeine in Greenwood.

I highly recommend Neptune Coffee just up the street. RIP Tully’s.
Thanks for the update!

Bummer - I really liked this Tully’s - nice and cool on hot summer days (not that there’ve been many this year), and lots of room to work.

I agree, Neptune Coffee is where it is at. So to speak.

Wayward Coffee is immediately across the street and has faster Wifi than Neptune.
If you’re not feeling Wayward, wander on down to Chocolati at 84th and Greenwood - also free Wifi.

FYI–your link to Yelp is broken.
And +1 for Neptune. Stumptown coffee, mmm.

I recently completed a painting series of 30 Seattle coffeehouses (30 Alternatives to Starbucks). I started with my personal fav’s - my granddaughter loved the sweet little children’s area of the Tully’s on 85th…we used to meet my mom theere on Friday mornings. The series can be viewed on my website: http://www.natalieramsey.com. 14 of the 30 paintings are available as originals, all 30 paintings are available in print.
