DiPietro’s Pop-up Fundraiser

February 16, 2022February 17, 2022 | Posted in Events

The family that ran DiPietro’s on Cumberland Ave is holding a one-day pop-up event at the Gold Room on Warren Ave this coming Saturday, 1 – 7 pm. The event is raising funds for a heart and lung transplant operation that David Grondin, a family member, needs.

For sale will be the classic DiPietro’s large ham Italian ($7), Team David t-shirts, and raffle tickets.

The DiPietro family operated their sandwich shop and market at 171 Cumberland Ave for 69 years before closing in 2013. The building is now occupied by Banh Appetit.
