After 50 years of bringing authentic Italian groceries to Germantown, Doylestown, and Warminster, the owners of Altomonte’s Italian Market are expanding their operations once again with a new cafe and bakery, writes Michele Haddon for Bucks County Courier Times.  

Franca and Michael Grispino moved from Italy to Philadelphia where they opened Mike’s Meats in 1971. After relocating to Bucks County, the couple expanded their business to Warminster in 1980. Mike’s Meats became Altomonte’s Italian Market, appropriately named after their hometown in Italy. The Doylestown location opened in 2006 and now in 2024— Warminster is welcoming Alto Bakery & Caffè.
