About us

For the last 100 years 629 6th St. SW in Mason City, IA has been occupied selling foods.  From it's humble beginnings as a local meat market and grocery store building to the 1970's to a local eatery and then in 1986 becoming Pete's Kitchen.  For nearly 40 years Pete and Arlene made their home cooking a staple of Mason City.  If you wanted fresh and homemade, they had it.  In 2023 Pete and Arlene retired.  The tradition continues with two not so local boys one with German heritage and an upbringing in carnival food. The other is Irish Catholic with some French and Italian training.  We're doing our best to make it homemade and keep the local tradition alive.
