	In the late 1980's, after traveling to Italy Tony's grandson, Anthony returned with an idea to bring all of the color and culture of an authentic Italian Cafe back home, to what was now know as the S. 9th St. Italian Market. When Tony's son, Thomas, moved the fruit & produce to a larger wholesale facility, Anthony now had his opportunity to begin fulfilling his dreams on the market. On April 21, 1995 Anthony, transformed his grandfather's original store into Anthony's Italian Coffee House at 903 S. 9th St., nearly 60 years after Tony parked his push-cart. It was the market's first coffee house to open in nearly 50 years.

	The market and the customers have responded so well that Anthony's added a Chocolate House in 2003 to showcase house-made chocolates and artisan gelato.

Ecommerce, takeout & delivery became our primary business model and has sustained our family business.

Through shear will and determination, they survived the depression and grew their businesses and their family. By 1938, Tony parked his push-cart in front of 903 S. 9th St. and rented the store, directly next to the family fish market. Tony Anastasio would spend the rest of his life, living & working right here with his sweetheart, Anna, the eldest daughter of Vernando & Maria Pagano, poultry merchants on the market. Today, versions of both the family's seafood store and fruit & produce business are still in existence on the market and are owned & operated by members of the Anastasio Family.

His parents, Thomas (Chubby) & Anne encouraged and supported his vision to help enhance the market with new outdoor seating, extending store hours and inviting everyone in to share in the family traditions. Still today you will find mamma setting up the coffee house in the early hours of morning, greeting the day's first customers and sharing her thoughts of family and tradition, while sipping her morning latte on the deck, where her father-in-laws' push-cart was once parked.
