About Us
Available Space
We’re offering a rare opportunity to join the Waterfront Market at Ruston with a space that was formerly a meat market — now ready for its next chapter!
This space is ideal for a restaurant, winery, bar, or specialty food business looking to be part of Tacoma’s vibrant waterfront community. It includes:
- A walk-in fridge and freezer
- A private office space
- A dedicated restroom
- Prime location within a year-round indoor market
With established foot traffic, a supportive vendor community, and a unique setting just, this space has incredible potential for a new culinary or beverage concept.
Need a smaller space?
If you’re looking for something smaller, we have a variety of spaces available throughout the market! Choose from pre-built vendor spaces ready to move into, or work with us to customize your own setup from the ground up. Whether you’re just starting out or expanding your business, the Waterfront Market at Ruston has room for you to grow.
