Micucci’s Grocery Co.

Inside Micucci’s Grocery Co.

Micucci’s Grocery Co. at 45 India St in Portland offers more than your typical grocery run. This is an Italian-style market where locals and visitors alike can find a wide selection of cured meats, cheeses, and pantry staples that reflect traditional Italian flavors. Beyond the shelves, there’s a bakery section producing fresh bread throughout the day, with dough that’s often praised for its light and airy texture—perfect for sandwiches or just enjoying on its own.

One of the main draws here is the pizza, baked fresh starting late morning. The style leans toward a Sicilian crust—thick but surprisingly fluffy on the inside and balanced with fresh tomato flavors and quality cheeses. People tend to come here for a casual slice that fills you up without feeling heavy, often paired with a friendly chat at the counter. The atmosphere inside evokes an old-world Italian market, with welcoming staff who know their products and enjoy sharing recommendations, making the experience feel personal rather than just transactional.

This spot works well for those stopping by midday to grab ready-to-heat meals or pick up ingredients for an Italian-style dinner at home. It’s a place that suits food enthusiasts who appreciate authentic, thoughtfully sourced ingredients—and those who want a taste of Italy without leaving Portland’s Waterfront district. Weekdays or weekends after 11 AM are ideal for pizza fans, while earlier visits might focus on cheeses, meats, or baked goods. The mix of locals and visitors passing through makes it a lively, approachable stop for anyone interested in exploring Portland’s diverse food scene through the lens of an Italian grocery and bakery.

Stopped in here while visiting Portland with a friend. Very cool Italian grocery store! Tons of meat and cheeses. Many fresh made ready to heat items as well. Fresh pizza after 11 AM. We weren’t there in time for pizza, but got some fresh bread made with their dough and it made a delicious sandwich!!

Been here years ago, pizza amazing then and now. Truly the best pizza in Maine so far and we tried so many other places. Variety of pasta and other products was great. Staff so friendly. Thank you.

What a find! A very generous slice of pizza. For being so thick, it is so airy and light. The dough is the star of the show here. The cheese and seasoning is great too. Will be back for more.

Probably my favorite place in Portland :) Such a hidden gem, amazing pizza tucked away in the back of the store. This is what I’m talking about when it comes to a more Sicilian style crust: except the dough is one of the airiest, lightest, fluffiest—and the tomato flavor one of the freshest—I’ve had in the East Coast. Get the pepperoni. 5 stars. Also they have some pretty spectacular local made gelato in the frozen section. And some super awesome snacks & Italian pantry items, wine, ‘nduja…the list goes on.

Entering this place takes you straight to Italy. Very friendly staff and authentic Italian goods. We got wine, sopressata, and pistachios biscotti. Everything was delicious.

Great variety of Italian delicacies. Good selection of hard to find Sicilian wines. The fresh breads, cut cheeses, and meats are all very good. They offer a terrific Sicilian pizza in the rear to either eat in or take away. Worth a visit when in Portland.

This grocery store specialize in Italian product. They also have fresh Italian pizza and also dessert. I am not a fan of their sfogliatella to be honest, it's my first sfogliatella ever so maybe that's why. I just don't think the light lemony ricotta filling goes well with the generous cinnamon powder on top. But next will try their canoli and I'll tell you how it goes.
