The Big Picture

Mixed Picture

D'Amico Coffee has run the same Court Street storefront since 1948, in one family and with no outside investors. A former worker's federal wage suit ended in 2023 when the worker accepted the company's offer of a court judgment, which was paid. Its owner, Francis D'Amico, died that August, and the company hasn't said publicly who owns it now.
