Rooted in tradition

About

Our story

Kito’s Kave is Petersburg’s harbor public house: a bar and liquor store on Sing Lee Alley, rooted in tradition and open to everyone.

It’s where fishermen, cruise-ship visitors, and neighbors end up at the same bar, and where a thousand stories have started with “Remember that night at Kito’s…”

History

Kito’s has been part of Petersburg for generations. We’re confirming the founding year with the owners and will share the full history here soon.
