Why it's worth checking out
Talulah is a daytime café on Glebe Road in The Junction, Newcastle, built around food, drinks and a sense of community. The venue is open from 6.30am to 2.30pm daily, with food served from 7am to 2pm, making it suited to an early coffee, a relaxed breakfast or a long daytime catch-up. Private functions are also available on request.
The café describes its approach as refined modern café culture, with seasonal menus and a changing space intended to keep the experience fresh. Its stated aim is to offer a homely place where people can retreat, connect and enjoy food and drinks that nourish and inspire. While the website does not list individual dishes, the seasonal focus suggests the offering changes over time rather than following a fixed signature menu.
Talulah was founded as a restaurant in 2009 by local entrepreneur and yogi Garth Ashford, with the venue passing to Jack Scheeren and his family in 2020. Jack and Kahlea have continued the venue while bringing their own café background to its direction. The result is a community-minded spot for locals, small groups and anyone seeking a considered daytime café experience in The Junction.
