Miceli’s Market and Deli to Add Italian Foods in Lawrence
Jess Maceli plans to rename the business Miceli’s Market and Deli and expand offerings with Volpi Italian meats and Italian cheeses. The store will feature deli meats by the pound, made to order sandwiches, pasta specials, salads, cannoli desserts, and a focus on unique lunch options.
