Shared Kitchen Space is a 4,000 square-foot food hall and commercial kitchen at Market Plaza in Gary, Indiana. We were built in 2026 by Steel City Builders to do three things, in this order:
One. Give the chefs, caterers, and food entrepreneurs of Northwest Indiana a licensed kitchen they can afford — at the hour, the month, or the season.
Two. Run a working restaurant that hands the menu over to a different chef every season — so the public gets to try real new ideas, and the chefs get a real shot at building a customer base.
Three. Be the place where the rest of the food industry — the producers, the bakers, the food trucks, the pop-ups — comes together. Classes, dinners, private events, the works.
Tours are best for people considering a residency, kitchen membership, or private event — but anyone who's curious is welcome. Allow about 20 minutes; tours run Tuesday through Saturday.
Catering by our current resident chef, plus our roster of partner caterers. Delivery throughout Northwest Indiana and Chicagoland. Quote within 48 hours.
Press, partnerships, suppliers, friendly hellos. Drop a line and we'll respond within 1 business day.
