Pompei
was established by Luigi Davino back in 1909. He called it
Pompei
because it was located near Our Lady of Pompeii Church. Luigi married Carmella
and they had four sons and a daughter. The family lived above the bakery and
worked many long hours making only bread and cheese pizza.
After returning home from World War II in 1944, Luigi's sons helped run the
business. His eldest son, Alphonso, ran the bakery for 30 years with the help
of his brothers Ralph, Solly and "Uncle Rogie." When Alphonso retired, his
nephew Ralph continued the family business.
Since
then, our menu has expanded to what it is today. Using only the freshest and
finest ingredients, we will continue to carry the family tradition that Luigi
instilled in 1909. We're proud to say that we've been serving families for
three generations.
