Italian Deli

It was a staple in the Goose Hill neighborhood of Schenectady for thirty-four years and then last summer it closed. Many thought it was for good, but a family member stepped up and she has reopened the beloved Italian deli.

La Gioia Italian Deli was a staple in Schenectady's Goose Hill neighborhood for thirty-three years. They may have closed but a close family member has decided to resurrect the italian deli and hopes to re-open this fall.

It is the end of an era for a popular Italian deli in Schenectady. La Gioia has been a staple in the Goose Hill neighborhood for over three decades and it will close its doors this weekend. As this specialty store closes a new Italian deli will be opening soon just two miles away.

Schenectady is about to get a bit more Italian. There is a new Italian deli and specialty store moving in soon. It will be replacing an Indian restaurant and a cafe in the Clinton building.
