Black History Month — a time to acknowledge, understand and celebrate the contributions African Americans have made throughout history — also provides an opportunity to appreciate the work of local Black entrepreneurs in our own communities.
In celebration of Black History Month, we’re highlighting a few of the minority-owned businesses here in Montgomery County and Bucks County to support this month and all year long:
The Burgerly, New Hope
Owners: Chef Mark McLean and Zach Glover
Chef Mark McClean and Zach Glover opened The Burgerly in 2021 with the hopes of taking the classic burger joint to the next level, offering flavorful and eye-catching handhelds inside a cool and casual restaurant that fits the feel of New Hope’s thriving downtown.
“It’s more of an experience we try to deliver,” said McLean, who also owns Fres Café and Remarkable Cuisines, both in New Jersey. “The look and the feel, it just really combines some really simplistic techniques to make something complex and delicious.”
