A FAMILY LEGACY
"We grew up in the food industry, from catering to working in our parents' restaurants."
Little Boomers’ Burrito Bar is owned and operated by siblings Andrew and Nicole Cleary.
The Clearys are third generation restauranteurs. Their grandfather Charles “Pudgie” Cleary opened the original (and many additional) Pudgie’s Pizza restaurants. Mom and Dad, Karen and Francis Cleary, owned Boomer’s, Boomer’s Bistro, and Boomer’s Catering.
Seeking to do something fresh and different, the idea for Little Boomers’ Burrito Bar was born. Opening in 2014, Little Boomers’ offers fresh, fast, real food served in a variety of “vessels”, customized to every individual’s preference. True to their original dream, Little Boomers’ only serves real food, from the best ingredients, made daily on premises. Everything from shredding locally sourced cheese to every marinade and salsa, everything is made in house, from the best ingredients. We pride ourselves in choosing the “hard” way. You won’t find a freezer or microwave on-site!
Andrew handles the operational side of the house while Nicole serves as Business Manager. In true family business form, mom, Karen, helps out when needed and can usually be found at large events. Dad, the late Francis “Boomer” Cleary, remains a constant presence. His likeness is painted, Dia de los Muertos style, at the center of the colorful wall mural in the dining room, keeping an eye on all the comings and goings.
Some say fast food is not supposed to be good for you, and good food is supposed to take a long time. At Little Boomers’, we turned both of those standards upside down.
