tu-tu-tu Kitchen Cottage

Great little kitchen wonders store. All sorts of kitchen gadgets you always wanted but never knew existed. The selection is fun and the service great.

This small kitchen store seems to have a little bit of everything. They carry «cool» kitchen items as well as basic stuff. We purchased a set of soup bowls at a great price and also some ginger candy.
The woman who works here was very helpful and congenial. Definitely worth a look around this place whether you’re a basic at-​home cook or a foodie chef type.

Awesome shop! Basic kitchen tools mixed with exotic things to inspire. Has everything the big stores do but with the feel of a locally owned small business. The clerk that helped us was so friendly and loved to cook too. Left us alone to browse but was very helpful when asked a question. I wish this shop was near my home going a second time today to end my trip to the Oregon coast.

A very welcome addition to shopping-​deprived Newport! This beautiful little kitchen store is gourmet and exotic and filled with useable items. There are sections of the store devoted to different parts of the world and then stocked with everything you’d need to cook that cuisine — cookbooks, baking dishes, serving dishes, utensils, linens, etc. It’s floor to ceiling fun in every color of the rainbow and sure to stimulate gift ideas for yourself or someone else. If you’re ready to embark on a culinary adventure, this is a perfect place to start!

Took forever to find an existing Unilocal page for this place to write a review because of the strange name. Tu-​tu-​tu is not exactly how it reads on their sign. tu. tu. tu would be closer… it’s from their address at 222 NW Coast St. (get it? 2=tu.haha)
Anyway…
Very cool kitchen shop I’d hate to be responsible for keeping dusted — shelves and tables and wall brackets full of gadgets, pots, tools, linens, and kitchen wonders. 2 months ago when I gave up on finding my corkscrew — I wish I’d known they had just the rabbit-​ear corkscrew I was looking for … too late. And two weeks ago, when I ruined my 20-​year-​old Le Creuset soup pot — I wish I’d known there was a place just down the road to find a new one. But again… too late. tu-​months tu-​weeks tu-​late.
Ah well.
Lots of baking pans and silicone gadgetry here — lots of items in the cupcake theme — and paella pans in several sizes. Cookbooks, BBQ tools, picnic ware and dinnerware — interesting ceramic, and a wall display of the greenest things you need to make your kitchen fit right into that re-​furbish, re-​use, re-​purpose, re-​cycle world of the Pacific Northwest.
In general, the prices I saw were full retail — which is not surprising considering its location among the eateries and gift shops of Nye Beach. This is a foodie browser’s shop with lots to see — and many things I’d never seen before.
Worth the browsing — did I mention how cute the little «cottage» is? Great building and location for this kind of place. !
Someone asked why I docked a star — I’ve been to similar kitchen shops in Taos, San Francisco, Ft. Worth, and New Orleans (in similarly located shops that play to visitors) — and all those added the unique art/​style of their respective locations — especially pottery and kitchen art — that make their items memorable associations to the area in question. There are so many wonderful ceramic and glass artists on the Oregon Coast (and painters, printers etc.) that it could boost this shop easily into the 5 star and 5+ star category to have some representative pieces available here. To make a «coastal» kitchen — it might be advantageous to keep other seafood-​prep and local flavor items. — things that would boost this to a MUST VISIT spot, as opposed to just a well stocked kitchen shop. It is such a clever location and well-​designed shop…
4 Stars is well above average… Just a short climb (about 4 car lengths) south up the sidewalk/​hill from Nana’s Irish Pub and Panini Bakery/​Pizza!
