Goodbye, Tully's In QA

Well, it's a sad day for Tully's loyalists in Queen Anne: the Boston & Queen Anne Ave location is closed! According to our (much appreciated) tipper Landon, the windows are covered up and a sign reads, "Thank you for your years of service." There are three coffee shops within spitting range of the bygone Tully's, so it's not like QAers are sunk for expensive caffeine. One of those coffee shops is a Peet's, which we like better than Tully's anyway. But...still. Sad day! (We like tips. Send them here.)

There are other Tully's that have disappeared recently. The one at 87th & Greenwood is completely gone. You can't even tell that it used to be a coffee place. I'm not even sure how Tully's still exists as a company after failing to do much more than survive vs. Starbucks. I guess it's like Subway & Quiznos: they both seem to fill exactly the same niche yet somehow there's enough space for both of them.

I hear it's because they've opened a new store over on Nickerson, closer to SPU. I have that from a usually reliable subterranean echo.

That's too bad, as their milkshakes are some of the best out there.

That said, I've only been to that location once and I live in QA.

And I rarely drink coffee, if I do I'll go to Muse.
