Organization, Consolidation and Presenation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TC Global, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and joint ventures controlled by the Company. In these condensed consolidated financial statements, references to “we,” “us,” “Tully’s” or the “Company” refer to TC Global, Inc. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, they include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly present the financial information set forth therein. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Results of operations for the thirteen week period ended June 27, 2010 (“First Quarter Fiscal 2011”) and the thirteen week period ended July 3, 2011 (“First Quarter Fiscal 2012”) are not necessarily indicative of future financial results. Investors should read these interim financial statements in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended April 3, 2011, filed with the SEC on July 6, 2011 (the “Fiscal 2011 Form 10-K”). As discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, circumstances exist that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended July 3, 2011 and June 27, 2010 and the consolidated financial statements as of April 3, 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. All amounts in the preceding financial statements and in the following notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are assumed to be denominated in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Recent Developments During the First Quarter Fiscal 2012, the Company opened one new Company-operated store. During this period, the Company’s franchise and license partners added two new locations and closed one existing locations. During First Quarter Fiscal 2012, the Company’s licensees in Asia closed one store in South Korea. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance regarding the presentation of comprehensive income. The new standard requires the presentation of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new standard also requires presentation of adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The updated guidance is effective on a retrospective basis for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements. In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance on fair value measurements that clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective on a prospective basis for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents in excess of current operating requirements are invested in short-term, interest-bearing instruments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase and are stated at cost, which approximates market value. Escrow and Related Party Receivable In connection with the closing of the sale of the assets associated with Tully’s business names, trademarks, and wholesale business to Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (“GMCR”), a Delaware Corporation, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Green Mountain transaction”), dated September 15, 2008, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto dated November 12, 2008 and Amendment No. 2 thereto dated February 6, 2009 by and among the TC Global, Inc., GMCR and Tully’s Bellaccino, LLC (the “GMCR Agreement”), $3.5 million of the purchase price was placed in escrow for one year to satisfy Tully’s post-closing indemnification obligations to GMCR . The full amount of this escrow was released to Tully’s on March 29, 2010.
