In times past the phrase "mom and pop store" usually referred to a single business run by a husband and wife. One often handed down from the previous generation. Today, San Clementeans Mike and Sue McGeary, owners of the Pier Market and Beach Garden Café, are happily redefining that phrase. Although their philosophy and practices typify the "mom and pop" mentality, they are working hard to apply its principles not just to one, but to two businesses, situated side-by side in the Pier Bowl area - while "mom" minds one store, "pop" runs the other.
