Support Ukiyo Koffie, a Quiet Coffee Space

Donation protected
Hi everyone,
I started this small, independent coffee shop with a simple mission: to be of service by helping us all slow down. This space wasn't just built to sell coffee; It’s a place where you can step away from the noise, and find a moment of peace. Whether it’s providing a quiet corner for a guest to think or a warm smile during a tough morning, being of service to this community is the heartbeat of this shop.

Recently, we experienced a break-in. Essential equipment was stolen, and as a result, our doors have been closed.

While insurance is covering a significant portion, for which I am incredibly grateful, it doesn't bridge the entire gap. There are remaining costs for specialised equipment and necessary repairs to make the space safe and welcoming again.

This space was built quietly and mostly alone, but it quickly became clear that it belongs to all of us. It’s part of our collective daily rhythm. It’s the familiar faces, the brief but meaningful conversations, and the shared silence over a cup of coffee that makes this place what it is.

Right now, I am asking for your help to finish the restoration so I can get back to serving you.

Your contributions will go directly toward:
  • Bridging the insurance gap for essential brewing equipment.
  • Restoring the shop’s interior to a working, peaceful state.
  • Security upgrades to ensure the shop remains a safe haven for everyone.

If you choose to support, please know it is simply an act of kindness to help restore a place that serves us all. There are no formal rewards or compensation, just the promise of a warm welcome and a quiet seat when we reopen.

If you aren’t in a position to contribute financially, please know that sharing this page is just as impactful. The strength of this community is what built this shop, and it’s what will bring it back.

Thank you for reading, for your kind words, and for being the reason this space exists.

Much love,
Jonathan
