Tulip Cafe is such a gem. The food is fresh and flavorful, the Turkish coffee and pastries are amazing, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The staff is super friendly and makes you feel right at home. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Columbus and a place I'd happily come back to again.

Food menu
Saphace A.

I had them on my list awhile but kept forgetting to stop by. I finally did late morning. Not busy! I ordered the Turkish bagel and the blue sky latte which has vanilla and lavender. The bagel was fantastic! I'm not a huge feta person since it's sometimes overpowering but they didn't put too much in it. The bread was soft and almost croissant-like but def tasted freshly made. They do not have dairy free alternatives so I took one for the team and still went for the iced latte. Strong espresso which is how I like it! No stomach pain afterwards either. I'll be back to try another pastry!

I recommend this restaurant!! The coffee and tea are very good. The service was very nice as well. They were very friendly and checked in on us multiple times! They have quite a few tables to sit at and it was very cute inside. I recommend the menemen and the mihlama.

Just west if the hayden/sawmill intersection is Hayden Run Plazza (on Hayden Rd is an amazing Turkish bakery/coffee shop that is locally owned by two women! Homemade cookies, cakes, flatbreads, turkish bagels along with a few sandwiches and hand held rolls (called Lahmacon) The coffee is great. Its the same as the espresso air coffee in Westerville (same family) Highly recommend! I like to support local small shops and womem owned places. The two families that own this are just so nice, too! Service is excellent. It makes it easy to want to be a regular here as it just is so very good. Its as simple as that. Come try it!

Pistachio baklava
Briana N.

When learning this was our first time, the worker was so kind about explaining what everything was. And everything sounded so good! Sadly, we were just stopping by to get something quick before we headed out to lunch, so we were only able to try the pistachio baklava, but I would definitely come back to try the other food and desserts! The pistachio baklava was delicious! It was a little smaller than I expected but actually eating it, it was the perfect size. Perfect size to soothe my craving for sweets and perfect size for it to be not too sweet after eating the whole thing.

Sad customers

No service. Had to literally walk up to the counter to get water for my table and the only other people there. Told them I need this meal to be gluten free a month ahead of time. And 2 hours before they agree that the plain rice I asked for instead of rice pilaf would work for them. They say they don't make gluten free bread. But will buy some. Yet still serve the glutenous bread and I have to wait for the bread I brought to be served.( I thought I was helping us both by bringing my own bread.) Even though I told them before buying the $100 dinner experience that gluten free bread is a delicacy and I'm looking forward to the experience I'm trusting will be allergy safe for me. THEN they serve me a soup, I assume after messaging them so much about my food allergies and how bad it effects me they would not even place in front of me! But no, it had regular wheat orzo on the bottom of the soup. This place has no concern or hospitality towards others. I was let down yet again, even though I took so many precautions. You suck

I tried one of their savory pastries from a farmers market stand recently. It had spinach and I believe cheese inside. The staff was kind and gave me instructions on how to reheat it at home. It was pretty tasty but needed a little sauce or seasoning in my opinion. The dough was well-made and I enjoyed it. The table full of other goodies looked amazing. I am looking forward to visiting Tulip Cafe in person at some point soon so I can taste more of what they have to offer. If I visit the market again, I'll definitely be stopping over to try something else they have in stock.

Pistachio Baklava
Eve R.

What a perfect bakery! We were craving a Turkish coffee and Yelp pointed us here, and I'm so grateful for the discovery. Beautiful little space run by the warmest couple. We were greeted kindly and felt at home here. They make perfect Turkish coffees and have the best baked goods. I was happy to learn they have a menu with meals, too, not just bakery items. We got coffees and pistachio baklava and a meat-filled pastry to take home. Every single thing was perfect. Coffee was hot and strong, loved little bites of Turkish delight candies. Pistachio is my favorite and their baklava was chewy and melted in your mouth, almost like a perfect macaron. Absolute perfection! The owner had me try the newest treat out of Turkey -- a pistachio-rimmed coffee. That was so cool! I would definitely try it again if he adds it to the menu! I can't wait to come back and support this great local business!

2 Piece Lahmacun with Salad!  (10/8/2023)

Tulip Cafe started as a pop-up bakery selling their items at Worthington Farmers Market. Over the many years, as their wonderful baked goods spread by word of mouth, and the Turkish community continuing to grow, they were able to start this brick and mortar bakery along side their market events around town. Back in a rather nondescript strip plaza, the space is small. Two two-top tables inside. The lovely Turkish American gal working was a delight to converse with. I was surprised to see I could order off Tulip's (what seemed to be) lunch menu, so I tried the Lahmacun and warm chai. My chai was great - nothing special, but they use Oregon chai, which is sooo much better than Tao chai, so happy camper. Loved the Lahmacun, a Turkish "taco" of sorts, with minced beef and spices spread on a thin (crepe-like) handmade Turkish to flour tortilla. You unfold it, add the lettuce, onions, tomatoes on the inside, squeeze fresh lemon inside, roll it up, and eat in delight! I got a small pistachio baklava and their rice pudding to go. Turkish baklava is made with simple syrup, so it much lighter and all round better, imo. I'm very glad I finally made the trek to check out Tulip Cafe.

I have been meaning to stop here after reading all the glowing reviews about the food. The space is small, but charming and very clean. The woman who helped me was just lovely and made recommendations of things to try, as there were menu items I was unfamiliar with. I ended up trying the Turkish coffee, pistachio baklava, and the flaky spinach borek. The coffee was hot and flavorful (just like I like it). The spinach borek had the flakiest dough and plenty of spinach. The baklava was incredible. It was not overly sweet and you could really taste the nuttiness of the pistachios. I look forward to returning to try more - everything in the case looked beautiful!

Such a cute little cafe! Everything is made from scratch and they have so many options for pastries/sweets. I decided to try their rice pudding and it was so delicious! It was creamy and sweet. Their Turkish coffee was also tasty and stayed warm for the entire car ride home! Will have to come back to try more things

This is a delightful cultural bakery. The variety makes it hard to choose just one item. I had the Chocolate Baklava and it was delicious. They participate at the Worthington Farmers Market on Saturday mornings.

The display of chocolates was completely mesmerizing and contained a wide variety of truffles and handmade candy bars. The shop owner was very friendly and also gave recommendations on what to try. I tried only two truffles because I was so full from all the foods I tried before: Lavender Hand Rolled Truffle: The truffle itself was very dense and rich with a strong presence of cocoa. Every bite melted in my mouth just like any good quality chocolate. What ruined this one was the lavender flavoring which was so overpowering that all I could taste was cocoa and lavender. Vietnamese Cinnamon Hand Rolled Truffle: I really enjoyed this one. The cinnamon and honey in the truffle paired perfectly with the strong cocoa flavor and the chocolate itself was very rich. If I was ever in the area again, I would probably come by to try their handmade candy bars and white chocolate items.

I went to the original location only to learn they have now moved to a larger location. So In traveled there. Drove by it. Lol. Turned around and was happy that they now how a dedicated parking lot. No more parking meters and walking! Yay!!! I swear... donuts from here dont taste like they are gluten free nor do they taste vegan. Which is why Im obsessed with them. So want g to share this with my friend, I immediately hopped into my car and drove 20 min to grab a box of these to being to her. Knowing she was going to be with three more of my friends I decided to get two big boxes of baked goods. Poptarts, scones croissants, cookies. All vegan, some gluten free. I didnt tell anyone they were vegan. They ate every crumb. That's when I told them about the vegan part. They were each amazed. When they were in town the next weekend they even messaged me to ask for more donuts! Im telling you, this is a hidden gem of columbus. Everything there is so good
