Coffee. Toasties. Good Vibes.
Who We Are
TUCKSHOP is an Australian-owned coffee and toastie café — a nod to our favorite toastie spots back home and a brand-new concept for NYC. We’re bringing a new slice of Aussie café culture to the West Village, keeping things simple, casual, and consistent: great coffee, amazing toasties, and genuine hospitality.
We will be opening our first store on West 11th Street (and it’s a stunner) this coming Winter. It’s an incredibly exciting time to join the team — a chance to help build and shape this brand from the ground up as we expand across the city. You’ll be the heartbeat of TUCKSHOP — leading the team, ensuring smooth operations, and creating a culture that’s warm, upbeat, and authentically Aussie.
