Atrium Kitchen

Atrium Kitchen is a commercial kitchen inside Pike Place Market, at 93 Pike Street near 1st & Pike. Chef Traci Calderon owns and runs it.

The class list mixes the Market with regional cooking. On the Market to Table tour you shop the stalls with Chef Traci, then cook and eat what you bought. Other classes cover gnocchi, ravioli for couples, tamales, New Mexican chiles and salsas, West Coast grill and BBQ sauces, and a session called World of Butter. Every class is hands-on. The kitchen holds a 4.9 Google rating from 88 reviews.

Public classes cost $75 to $195 a seat. Groups can book a custom class, and team building events start at $165 per person. The kitchen also runs a free community meal program called Nourished Neighborhood, and it works as an incubator for food entrepreneurs testing new ideas.
