Tacoma's Artisan Bakery & Grocer

Who Knew a Corner of Broadway Could
Taste This Fine?

Handcrafted pastries, house-baked breads, and a thoughtfully curated pantry — all from a single counter on Tacoma's historic Broadway.

Our Craft

Baked with patience.
Curated with intention.

Time-Honored Recipes

Every croissant, sourdough loaf, and seasonal tart follows recipes built on tradition — never rushed, always refined.

Locally Sourced

We partner with Pacific Northwest farms and producers so every ingredient carries the region's best seasonal character.

Curated Pantry

Beyond the bakery case, our grocery shelves hold small-batch preserves, artisan coffees, and goods we'd gladly keep for ourselves.

About Us

A corner of
Tacoma built
around good food

The Tearrarium began with a simple conviction: that a neighborhood bakery should feel as refined as it is welcoming. On Broadway — Tacoma's most storied street — we've created a space where the rhythm of the oven sets the pace.

Every morning our bakers arrive before dawn. By the time the door opens, the aroma of butter and grain is already filling the room. We bake in small batches, source from regional producers, and refuse to cut corners — because the people who live, work, and visit this neighborhood deserve nothing less.

Whether you're grabbing a coffee and a croissant on your way to work, selecting ingredients for a weekend meal, or placing an order for a celebration, we treat every visit as an opportunity to make your day a little better.
