Boomer's was a jazz club in Greenwich Village, New York City, during the 1970s. The club was a venue for bebop music.[1] Musicians including Barry Harris, Kenny Barron, Art Farmer, and Cedar Walton played the club, [2] and live albums including Walton's A Night at Boomers, Vol. 1 and A Night at Boomers, Vol. 2, and Art Farmer Quintet at Boomers were recorded at the club. After Boomer's closed, the space was the location of Manatus, a Greek diner, for three decades.[3]
