SINCE 1951
What kind of restaurant concept would have seven decades of operating experience, plus a team of dedicated servers and managers — many of whom have been employed there for thirty years? We’d say it would have to be a very special place.
Kelly’s Roast Beef has the nostalgic charm of an era gone by, yet it fits perfectly into the hustling schedules of modern consumers.
Back in 1951, two business partners, Frank V. McCarthy and Raymond Carey, came together to start a fun new foodservice concept. They named it after their best friend, and opened their doors to hungry customers. The rest, as they say, is history.
Today, we’ve expanded our brand across the Boston area, where we serve a wide array of meals made to order using only the freshest ingredients. Our late-night drive-thru has been a crowd favorite for more than 60 years!
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO SAY IT: WE’RE SPECIAL
