In 1924, Louis and Mary Boyar moved to Ocean City from Woodbine and started a fruit stand on the street outside their new apartment on 13th Street. This humble beginning marked the start of Boyar’s Market, a family business that has become an Ocean City institution.
In the 1930s, the family purchased the old A&P store on Asbury Avenue and expanded their business. Boyar’s Market continued to grow and evolve as the town itself did. In 2004, the new Boyar’s Food Market was built in the spot of the old one on Asbury Avenue. In 2015, Boyar’s opened its 55th Street location.
Today, Boyar’s Market has two locations in Ocean City. Both locations close for a time during the winter months, but reopen in the spring ready to continue their century-long tradition of providing exceptional food and service. Boyar’s offers a full-service butcher shop, fresh meats, cold cuts, prepared dishes, produce, and party trays.
Over the decades, Boyar’s Market has developed a reputation for quality and freshness. The market is committed to providing its customers with the best possible food and service. Boyar’s Market is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Boyar family. The market has overcome many challenges over the years, but it has always remained a fixture in the Ocean City community.
As Boyar’s Market celebrates its 100th anniversary, we congratulate the Boyar family on their remarkable achievement. We wish them continued success for many years to come.
