Located just 8 minutes by car or 16 minutes by Trolley from the beautiful downtown Gig Harbor waterfront, it offers a peaceful and well-maintained environment for shopping, dining, and entertainment. The center combines national retailers such as Marshalls, Chicos, and Talbots with local businesses like Frankie and Fondi Pizzeria, providing a variety of options for fashion, gifts, décor, and artwork. Visitors enjoy the mix of cafes, quick take-out spots, and restaurants, making it a great place to gather and hang out. The Galaxy Theatre is highly praised for being clean, friendly, and offering a good selection of movies, including Imax experiences. The area is well-designed, with nice landscaping, sidewalks, and little rest areas, making it ideal for a day or night out, whether for shopping or date nights. The shopping center is known for its tidy appearance, free of trash or graffiti, and a safe environment without vagrancy or homeless presence. While traffic can be busy around 4 pm, overall, Uptown Gig Harbor is considered a favorite spot for the greater Tacoma area, offering a relaxing and enjoyable experience for visitors.

Uptown is cute and clean. The store selection is okay if you are a certain age and gender demographic. The movie theater is nice and the restaurant selection is okay.
I wonder if they will ever expand to include stores for a middle aged demographic and for men. Anthropologie would do so well here.
