FACILITY

Built for food businesses.

Kitchen Council operates from the Hoff Family Arts & Culture Center in Council Bluffs, Iowa, in partnership with Pottawattamie Arts, Culture & Entertainment (PACE).

Our fully equipped commercial kitchen gives food entrepreneurs access to professional production space, commercial equipment, storage, and the infrastructure needed to build and grow a food business—without the significant investment of opening a facility of their own.

Located in the heart of the Hoff, Kitchen Council is part of a dynamic campus dedicated to creativity, entrepreneurship, and community. The facility is also home to PACE, American Midwest Ballet, Chanticleer Theater, and other regional arts and cultural organizations.

It’s more than a place to cook. It’s a professional home base where food businesses can produce, grow, and prepare for what comes next.

A spacious state of the art kitchen.

Kitchen Council’s home is a historic and newly renovated 3,000+ square foot facility and offers a variety of commercial grade equipment, production space and storage options.

At home with the arts.

The vibrant atmosphere is an exciting place to be and a perfect home for the culinary arts of Kitchen Council. Our Members can tap into endless opportunities from community events to weekend pop-ups to teaching classes.
