Cute Boutiques In Tri-Cities, WA
For those of you that are new here, my fiance and I recently moved back to our hometown of Kennewick, WA after moving around the country for over 7 years! Kennewick is one of the 3 towns that make up the Tri-Cities metro in Eastern Washington. So much has changed while we’ve been gone, in a good way! When we moved, there weren’t a lot of shops are restaurants that had the kind of aesthetic that I love sharing with you guys on here and on my social media channels. But over the past few years so many cute spots have opened up which I was thrilled to discover! I’ve loved getting to know the local shop owners and scouting spots with my fiance Schyler. I wanted to share a fun guide to (historic) downtown Kennewick, WA for those of you that may be moving to the area or maybe those that live in the area and want to check out some cute spots! I’ll be adding to this post as I visit more shops and hopefully sharing guides for other areas in the Tri-Cities soon too so be sure to check back.
Urban Grounds
This is the perfect spot to start your tour of downtown Kennewick with! Urban Grounds is the cutest boutique where you can shop clothing for the whole family, accessories, home decor, plants, gifts, and more. The clothing selection is super cute with a mix of casual, modern, chic, and bohemian styles! They also have a beautiful coffee bar (obsessed!) so you can sip your latte while you shop or sit down and enjoy it with a friend post shopping in their lounge area. I love the plant shelf in the front (it’s the design details for me ;P).
Address: 217 W Kennewick Ave, Kennewick, WA 99336
Yet Lovely
Yet Lovely used to be located in the Public Market, but recently moved in to their own location in Richland. The owner, Audra, has an amazing eye for mixing new and vintage home decor items together. I picked out so many cute vintage pieces with a boho feel for our bedroom from this boutique. You are bound to find something amazing here for your home or a thoughtful gift for a loved one. She also offers interior design services!

Earth Spirit
Another cute local shop in Downtown Kennewick, Earth Spirit with handcrafted jewelry, earrings, and natural apothecary items. The owner, Erin, hand makes her jewelry with semiprecious stones and crystals as well as candles and skincare products that you can also shop online! She also carries handmade products like home decor, ceramics and more from other local businesses in store. Her candles smell absolutely amazing and I love the themes for the lines. My favorites were in her music themed line! I would definitely stop by this boutique to shop gifts for yourself or friends and family!
Address: 113 W Kennewick Ave Suite A, Kennewick, WA 99336
Slate & Aloe
If you love plants as much as I do, then you have to check out Slate & Aloe in downtown Kennewick. They have such an amazing range of plant varieties, some I’ve never even seen before! They also offer a great selection of books for young adults, adults, and a kid’s section as well. If you are a fan of tea, you can grab a cup while browsing their plants or cozying up with a book on one of their armchairs. The owner is super sweet, very plant savvy, and I was thrilled when she offered to pot the plant babies I picked out to take home with me!

XOXO
Your info is pretty outdated. Yet lovely has her own amazing shop but is no longer in the public market. She has been gone for 3 months now. There is much more to the public market and it is to bad you missed the mark on highlighting some of them. This next week is one year. Maybe go back and see what it is like now.
I am aware of that and I shot photos of the new location which I will be updating the blog post with when I get the chance. I am adding new shops each month which you may have missed in the introduction to this blog post, it’s ongoing as I am very busy juggling many projects and work on it whenever I can get around to it. But thank you for your input!
