OUR STORY
Rooted in Vashon. Made
for Gathering.
Originally built in 1890, The Hardware Store was the first commercial building in the town of Vashon and has been part of the Island community for more than a century. In 2005, the historic landmark was given new life as The Hardware Store Restaurant, creating a welcoming gathering place centered around Great Good Food.
Today, that experience and The Hardware Store’s long tradition of hospitality come together through The Hardware Store Catering. From intimate celebrations to larger gatherings, we create thoughtful, customized menus and memorable experiences, all with the warm hospitality and Great Good Food that have long been at the heart of The Hardware Store.
