LaSalle Market, once known as Keney Market, operated as a small traditional grocery setting, serving breakfast and deli sandwiches, donuts, and candy and providing a variety of local newspapers. The name changed when a family member from LaSalle Market of LaSalle Road in West Hartford purchased the business and changed the name to LaSalle Market.
The name LaSalle remained when it was later purchased by John Rainey, who refined the business into more of a restaurant setting. Over time, the menu expanded, and there were additions to the business, such as music and catering. After nine years of service, John sold the business to Scott Kaminski and Eileen O'Connor-Kaminski.
Scott and Eileen ran the business with the support of their family. They worked to maintain the traditions of LaSalle Market & Deli.
In December 2023, RW Solutions, Inc. (a CW Group entity) purchased LaSalle Market and Deli. With a few minor updates, including online ordering, RW held a grand opening on March 12, 2024. RW has maintained the menu, charm, and traditions of LaSalle Market with a slight update. In May, the lower level of LaSalle will feature a new store, LaSalle Only Sweeter. An ice cream, candy, and coffee shop. All net proceeds will go back to support the mission of RW Solutions.
RW Solutions, Inc. is a proud provider of the Meals on Wheels programs in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York.
All net proceeds from LaSalle Market and Deli are used to support Meals on Wheels and our Elderly Nutrition Program.
