The Lombardi family brought their catering and culinary expertise to the food retail industry with the opening of Lombardi’s Market in 2003. The initial plans for the market, which was to be a pork store, evolved into a mega-market offering shoppers an easy, one-stop venue for the best in gourmet fare. Conveniently located by the Long Island Expressway in Holbrook, the market has become a staple for fine foods and catering for all occasions as well as a haven for epicureans and those who simply crave exceptional food.

Ingredients used in the dishes prepared by executive chef and co-owner Guy Lombardi at Villa Lombardi’s, Mamma Lombardi’s and Lombardi’s on the Sound can be found on the shelves at Lombardi’s Market. The gourmet shop features an extensive array of items including cakes, cookies and pastries; coffee, espresso and teas; homemade pastas and sauces; international and domestic cheeses; oils and vinegars; and specialty meats. The market also features a sushi bar, brick oven pizzas, wine bar, omelette station, and bistro dining.

Custom-made gift baskets are made with the highest quality gourmet products and may be ordered to complement a variety of themes such as trimmings for an Italian feast or for the person who has everything. An extensive selection of hot and cold menu items for off-premise catering includes a multitude of packages that may accommodate a casual office brunch or a formal cocktail party. In addition to the retail line, the market has become a preferred stop for those who simply appreciate good food on the go.
