Coffee at Tuck’s comes from Parameter Coffee, which is also connected to the concept through Bianca Syching, one of the partners behind Tuck’s. Parameter Coffee was initially used for the bar’s espresso martinis and is now also served as coffee on its own.

Tuck’s also offers a Bottle Keep program, which lets guests purchase a bottle, enjoy a few glasses, and leave the remaining bottle at the bar for their next visit. The bar has a collection of around 800 bottles, including lesser-known spirits and limited releases.
Among its selections is La Venenosa Tabernas, a Jalisco raicilla with roasted agave, citrus peel, oregano, lemongrass, mineral, and spicy notes. La Higuera Sotol has notes of citrus, pineapple, grapefruit, mint, cinnamon, and caramel, while Clairin Sonson, a Haitian clairin, offers grassy sugarcane, tropical fruit, earthy spice, and a dry finish.
