Our Story
A Waterfront Gathering Place
Nestled along the shores of the Tacoma Narrows, Boathouse 19 is where great food, stunning waterfront views, and Northwest hospitality come together.
Inspired by the Waterfront
Life at Boathouse 19 revolves around the water. The passing boats, colorful sunsets, and changing tides create an atmosphere that feels distinctly Pacific Northwest.
Our menu reflects that same connection to place, featuring fresh Northwest seafood, seasonal ingredients, handcrafted cocktails, and approachable favorites designed to be enjoyed with friends and family.
Maritime history
Long before Boathouse 19 became a restaurant, this property served as part of the working waterfront that has defined the Tacoma Narrows for generations. Located alongside Day Island Marina, the site has long been connected to life on the water, welcoming boaters, fishermen, and waterfront residents who call the Narrows home.
Today, Boathouse 19 carries that maritime heritage forward. While the boats may look different and the dockside conversations have evolved, the spirit remains the same: a place where people gather to enjoy great food, beautiful views, and the company of family and friends.
Overlooking one of the most iconic waterways in the Pacific Northwest, Boathouse 19 offers front-row views of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, the marina, and the ever-changing rhythm of life on the water. Whether you’re arriving by car or tying up at the dock, you’re part of a tradition that has connected this shoreline community for decades.
