Shopping at a big box store is worlds apart from going to our local, family-owned shops. Whether in business for a few years or more than a century, those small, charming mom-and-pop shops offer a personalized experience. We’re often greeted warmly, take our time browsing, and feel right at home. This darling Italian market in Pennsylvania has been a popular family-owned spot for more than a century. Visit once, and you’re sure to become a regular.

Nestled in enchanting Historic Downtown Bellefonte, Bonfatto’s has been a neighborhood staple since 1919.

Currently run by the third generation of Bonfatto family members, the shop has seen its fair share of change over the years - moving locations several times, before settling down in its current downtown location.

Bonfatto’s is also known for its famous Bonanza Sub Sandwich, a favorite since John Bonfatto invented it in 1958.

People come from all over for the subs. If you’ve never had one, you have to taste it for yourself.

Take a peek at the rest of the menu, too, which is brimming with such classics as salads, pasta, and subs. You probably don’t want to pass up a piece of tiramisu or a cannoli, either.
