Tapped Everett & The Net Sheds Restaurant & Fish Market
New restaurant location taps a winning formula
BY ELLEN HIATT
The Port of Everett’s new Tapped restaurant and bar will be modeled on the same principles as the Way Group Hospitality’s successful locations sprinkled from Camano Island to Mill Creek — a family friendly gathering space with a straightforward Pacific Northwest menu of top flight beer and good eats.
The taphouse delivers a rotating menu of micro brews, and the menu is minimalist, “special, but approachable.”
“Do simple things well,” co-owner Sean Drought said. “Do one chicken sandwich. One burger. And do them well. Be authentic and stay true to your purpose.”

In Everett, Tapped will be on the second floor with indoor and outdoor dining with water and mountain views — the first rooftop deck dining experience to open at the Port. Additionally, there will be a walk-up retail store and take-out window at ground level, with outdoor patio space.
The Net Sheds, the new year-round fish market, will be a combination restaurant and retail space, serving up fish and chips in the restaurant and bar, alongside a fish market. The name was chosen to honor the commercial fishing industry’s home base in the Everett Marina. The fishing community remembers the rows of net sheds where, in the off season, the men would gather to repair their nets.
“The market and fish bar’s offerings will change daily, just like the tides,” Drought said in a press release. “Our goal is to be able to put a quality taste and flavor on the plate that is locally grown, harvested and caught products of our culinarily abundant region of the Puget Sound.”
You’ll find the Net Sheds market and outdoor patio along Seiner Wharf overlooking the commercial fishing dock.
