Gran Caffe L’Aquila was once a landmark cafe located on Piazza Duomo in the capital city of the Abruzzo region, winning "cafe of the year" for all of Italy in 2007. Then, tragically, it was damaged in the devastating earthquake of 2009 that destroyed the city.
In 2012 the original owners Stefano Biasini (Gelato Champion of Italy) and Michele Morelli (Award winning Italian Coffee Roaster) met local restaurateur Riccardo Longo (Award winning regional Italian food and wine director) which led to the rebirth of one of Italy’s most beloved cafes in Philadelphia.
The entire authentic restaurant was designed and built in Italy and then shipped to Philadelphia for installation, opening in the city in December of 2014. Its first floor is an authentic Italian bar and the second floor features the restaurant, wine bar, cultural and language school, as well as coffee and gelato labs.
