Sur La Table, a Seattle-based premier retailer of cooking products, is coming to The Bravern in Bellevue this fall.

It is expected to employ about 20 full- and part-time individuals.

Sur La Table opened its first store in Seattle in 1972. It now has 74 locations, one of them in Kirkland.

“It’s about time we opened a store in Bellevue!” said Chief Executive Officer, Jack Schwefel. “The Bravern is one of the most exciting developments we’ve seen in a long time and has a great mix of restaurants and retailers.”

The company also will open a store this fall in Costa Mesa, Calif.

Sur La Table has a reputation for providing superior customer service and an amazing assortment of high quality tools, many which cannot be found anywhere else.
