Welcome to our kitchen

Where Foodies Come To Create

welcome to whimsy’s kitchen where the culinary magic happens!

Whimsy’s Kitchen is a launchpad for your food or beverage concept.  We have created a nurturing atmosphere for startups mixed with experienced food vendors.  A big barrier to starting a food business is the expense of building out or leasing a commercial kitchen.  Furthermore, there are tremendous expenses involved in running a large commercial kitchen.  Whimsy’s Kitchen exists to help you overcome that obstacle.  We are a fully-equipped, commercially-licensed, shared-use kitchen in Tacoma, Washington, allowing you to build your business on an as-needed basis with lowered risk and minimized start-up costs.

Reasons to use a Shared-Use or Commissary Kitchen

Overhead Expenses Included

We will take care of all the extra bills – electricity, contractors, security, sewage, pest control, building codes, and more – so you don’t have to.

Equipment

We have the commercial-grade equipment you need, and we are responsibility to maintain and repair it – one less thing on your plate.

We're Licensed

Commercially-licensed, shared kitchens make it easy for you to stay compliant. You’ll have the peace of mind knowing you won’t risk getting shut down by the health inspector.

Additional Perks

Our commercial kitchen can provide additional services – with our large kitchen you can host cooking classes and have client tastings in our gorgeous venue, The Realm Venue.  We can help your business bring home the bacon! 

Camaraderie

With a professional, shared-use commercial kitchen, you aren’t just getting a place to cook. You’re getting a family of chefs, food producers, caterers, and other like-minded businesses to exchange advice, guide you, and build camaraderie.
