Our 
Story

Get to Know Us

Welcome to Nunzio & Tony’s Café.

​

My name is Michael Piperni, and I’ve always had a deep passion for good food, family, and Italian culture. Growing up, I learned so much about Italian food and traditions from my two grandfathers, Nunzio and Tony. Their love of food, family, and bringing people together has stayed with me throughout my life.

Both of my parents were born in Italy—my father in Abruzzo and my mother in Genoa—so Italian food and traditions have always been a big part of my family. I’m very excited to share some of the different regional flavours and culinary traditions that have influenced our family and bring them to Port Dover. And this is just the beginning—there’s much more to come.

When I decided to open a café in Port Dover, I wanted to create a place that shared that same feeling—a warm, welcoming spot where people could enjoy great food, relax, and experience a little taste of Italian tradition.

I named the café Nunzio & Tony’s in honour of my two grandfathers and the influence they had on me.

Our goal is simple: good food, good people, and a place where everyone feels at home. We hope that when you visit Nunzio & Tony’s, you enjoy not only the food, but also the traditions, stories, and passion behind it.
