Kitchen & Market's goal is to provide customers with a curated grocery experience focused on fueling their inspirations within a beautiful retail space. We are delivering on our brand promise when customers begin to change how they feel about grocery shopping and meal planning. From browsing recipes in the store to unpacking meal kits at home, Kitchen & Market hopes to inspire every level of home cook. In 2023, Kitchen & Market was voted by readers of The Seattle Times as the Best Grocery Store in the Best in the Pacific Northwest contest.
Kitchen & Market opened its first store in 2021 at the iconic Pike Place Market. In 2022, we opened a store on Mercer Island and, in 2023, its third location opened in Medina. The Mercer Island location has closed due to major fire damage that occurred in December 2023. In 2024, K&M opened 3 new locations: Madison Valley, Yarrow Bay, and Eastlake.
