The Cook’s Nook: Created to Celebrate Family and Food!
In 1988, Priscilla Smith opened the doors to The Cook's Nook in Downtown McPherson, KS, when realized that young women in the McPherson community lacked a place to create a bridal registry. She wanted to help those who were preparing to begin a new and exciting phase of life create a wishlist of items they would have in their kitchen + home for many years to come.
Home starts here.
From top of the line cookware, bakeware, dishes, cutlery, gadgets, kitchen essentials, gourmet food, home decor, and SO much more, The Cook's Nook has continued to grow since opening the doors in 1988.
Led by Priscilla's daughter, Jonna, and granddaughter, Cassidy, The Cook's Nook is always on the cutting edge of the housewares industry. We pride ourselves on being the final stop for that one special item you need to put the finishing touches on your meal or kitchen.
Our experienced staff knows everything there is to know about our products, and we're always happy to help you find what you're looking for. Plus, it's a family thing around here - you might even catch the whole fam working when you stop by!
At The Cook's Nook, we're committed to helping you cook delicious food and create that feeling of "home" with your friends + family. When you come inside, we’ll have someone there to greet you with a warm hello and to give you all the help our experienced staff can provide. Come see us soon!
