Pete's Bagels debuts co-working space in Gulfport
/Steven Peterman, owner behind the beloved St. Pete bagel shop Pete's Bagels, is launching a new venture—a co-working space in Gulfport.
Monday Morning Club will be designed to resemble a vintage diner, bringing a taste of fun nostalgia to 1401 49th Street South.
Members will enjoy free WiFi, complimentary coffee from St. Pete-based Look Alive Coffee, free bagels from Pete’s every Friday, and discounts on events and space rentals.
“I have always wanted to open a diner,” Peterman said to St. Pete Rising. “But this space isn’t really set up for a restaurant.”

A new family-owned restaurant serving pizzas, burgers, empanadas, and other Argentinian dishes is preparing to open in Pinellas Park.
Pizzardis will open at 7820 49th Street North, near England Brothers Park and the Pinellas Park Performing Arts Center. The building was previously home to Pinellas Park's Fresh Produce.
Owner Victoria Fecarotta said she and her husband expect to welcome their first customers during the last week of September.
For Fecarotta, the restaurant is rooted in memories of food bringing people together in Argentina, from long Sunday lunches to Friday nights spent sharing pizza with family.
She moved to the United States in 2001 and, after years in the restaurant business and previously owning a restaurant with her husband in Chicago, is ready to open a place of her own in Pinellas County.
