The place
Tucked just off Queen Street, since 2017.
Zuki's started with a simple idea: put two of the world's great breakfast tables next to each other and let people choose. One morning it's an espresso and a warm cornetto. The next it's a Turkish spread that fills the whole table sucuk, creamy feta, olives, honey and warm, fluffy flatbread.
The room helps. Vines and flowers run across the ceiling, the walls are deep garden-teal, and there's a basket of oranges by the coffee machine. It's the kind of corner you mean to leave after one cup and end up staying for three.
Take a look inside →-
Breakfast, all the way through
Full English, an Italian plate, and a Turkish spread built for two or four served from open till close.
-
Two coffee traditions
Proper Italian espresso and slow Turkish coffee, made with the same care, poured at the same bar.
-
A room full of flowers
Quite possibly the most photographed ceiling in Exeter. Bring someone you like.
