A neighborhood food hall, a fully-licensed commercial kitchen, and a stage for the next wave of Northwest Indiana's food entrepreneurs — all under one roof at Market Plaza.
Whether you're a chef testing a concept, a caterer who needs a workspace, or a hungry diner — Shared Kitchen Space was built around the people who use it.
Lease a fully-built kiosk for 30, 60, or 90 days. Test your concept on a real customer base, with our equipment, our location, and our marketing behind you.
Apply for a residency →A fully-licensed commercial kitchen, available by the month or by the hour. Walk-ins welcome for a tour. Members get keys, scheduled hours, and dry storage.
Become a member →A different chef every season. Walk in for lunch, dinner, or coffee — and meet the next generation of Gary's food talent before everyone else does.
See who's cooking now →Three anchor kiosks, one rotating pop-up, and a breakfast-to-dinner diner that runs the bar. Each vendor cooks their own concept, on their own counter, sharing one commercial kitchen behind the wall.
Walk in any time. Order at whichever counter you like. Eat at any open table. Catering available from any vendor for parties of 10+.
Cooking classes most weekends. Pop-up dinners on Thursdays. Private events available Sunday evenings — book the whole place for your party of 16.
Two hours, six knives, no fingertips lost. Walk away knowing how to break down a chicken and dice an onion in under 60 seconds.
Visiting chef Maya Owens (Indianapolis) takes over the kitchen for one night — an eight-course meal pairing Gulf seafood with Lake Michigan smelt.
From starter to sliced loaf, in three hours flat. Take home a starter and your own boule. Hosted by Pilsen baker Ana Reyes.
Twenty minutes on-site beats an hour on a phone call. Tours run Tuesday through Saturday — bring your concept, your questions, or just your curiosity.
