Have you ever gone off the main road and discovered a hidden gem? Or maybe you took a long, scenic drive along a country road and found the most adorable mom-and-pop restaurant? Sometimes gems are so hidden that we only uncover them through pure chance or through word-of-mouth. That’s pretty much how most people stumble upon this unassuming spot that serves some of the best handmade kielbasa in Missouri.
Peter May’s House of Kielbasa in Kansas City is so well-hidden that you’d likely not notice it if you drove past. The interior matches the exterior: unassuming.

The kielbasa here is so fresh and so delicious, at least if you ask previous guests, that the word-of-mouth spreads quickly - making this a must-visit spot for Missourians.

While you’re here, grab a seat and have a bite to eat. The only thing that rivals the kielbasa, at least according to those in the know, is the burger.

The Reuben, turkey club, and BLT are a few more sandwich choices. Pair them with fries, onion rings, or tater tots for the oh-so-perfect meal.

All sandwiches are made to order. Cheese sticks, coleslaw, and potato salad also add that extra oomph to any meal.
