A Corner of Comfort on Newman Street

Tilly's Cafe and Tea House was born from a simple belief: that the best moments of your day start with good food, great company, and a warm cup of tea.

We've been a staple in East Tawas for years, baking our pastries from scratch every morning and sourcing the finest loose-leaf teas so every visit feels like a little treat you deserve.

Whether you're grabbing a quick coffee on your way to work or settling in for a leisurely brunch with friends, our doors are open and our ovens are always warm.
