Tapped Social, the latest restaurant from the Tapped brand, recently welcomed the Greet Mill Creek team, community members, and business partners to experience its newest location in Everett. Unlike Tapped Public House in Mill Creek, this location brings a fresh take to the Tapped experience, pairing an Italian American scratch kitchen with interactive games and a versatile event space. Tapped Social takes the spirit of gathering a step further. From the food to the atmosphere, every detail is designed to bring people together. Guided by the motto “Eat. Drink. Gather.”, the team hopes to create a restaurant where the community can connect.

The Tapped team are self-described food lovers, and that passion shaped the menu from the start. They wanted to create something delicious that would bring people together around the table. An Italian American cuisine felt like a natural fit featuring familiar favorites with a twist. Nearly everything is made in-house, from the bread to the sauces, using carefully selected local ingredients and products imported from Italy. The OG Nonna’s Lasagna is slow cooked for over three hours, while the Double Crust Pan Pizza uses 48-hour proofed pizza dough to deliver an airy, chewy crust.

The same care extends to the drinks, from a well-considered wine list featuring Italian and local selections to rotating taps showcasing Pacific Northwest brews along with signature cocktails. The open kitchen brings guests into the process, offering a front row seat as chefs prepare each dish. Watching them move in a coordinated dance is part of the experience, giving diners an authentic glimpse into the craftsmanship behind their meal.

That sense of care carries into the dining room, where leather seating invites guests to settle in by the fireplace and enjoy the moody, welcoming atmosphere. The design strikes a balance between polished and playful, creating a space that feels comfortable enough for a casual dinner but special enough for a night out. The invitation to connect doesn't end at the table. 

The assortment of games gives their guests another reason to linger, turning dinner into an evening of friendly competition. Friends can challenge one another to darts, gather around the pool tables or take a swing at the indoor golf simulator. With over 95 courses, the embedded technology tracks each shot and provides real-time feedback, offering an experience for seasoned golfers and curious beginners alike. The games can also be rented, making it easy to build an outing around both a shared meal and some interactive fun, whether it's a date night, a family gathering, or an evening with friends.

The spirit of gathering also extends into The Grand, Tapped Social’s dedicated event space. Floor to ceiling windows frame views of the Possession Sound, while high ceilings, string lights, and chandeliers create an open, comfortable setting. Designed to accommodate a variety of occasions, the space can host everything from family celebrations and weddings to business events. Its modular layout allows different areas to be combined or sectioned off to suit each gathering, with options to incorporate adjoining spaces, including a dedicated bar and the golf simulator. Whether hosting an intimate gathering or a larger celebration, the team aims to make the space adaptable to the occasion while offering the same warm hospitality found in the restaurant.

For the Tapped family, “Eat. Drink. Gather.” is more than their restaurant's motto. It reflects a broader commitment to the communities that have supported the brand over the years. That commitment extends beyond their restaurants through partnerships with charitable organizations like the YMCA, and efforts to provide meals to those in need. Their annual Thanksgiving event is one example, with thousands of meals donated to help feed people in the community. 

As Everett’s food scene continues to grow, the team hopes Tapped Social will become another place where people feel welcome, share great food, and make lasting memories.
