Bubbakoo’s Burritos, a trending Mexican-fusion concept based out of New Jersey, opened its newest location in Oxford on March 18. 

The Oxford restaurant marks Bubbakoo’s Burritos fourth location to open in Connecticut in just a few years, a testament to the brand’s growing popularity in new markets. Located at 71 Oxford Rd – Unit B, the new restaurant is locally owned and operated by Hiren Patel. 

“I’m excited to bring such a unique and innovative concept to Oxford,” said Patel. “Bubbakoo’s truly stands out from the crowd with menu items that are unlike anything else out there – that’s what hooked me. Providing a completely new style of food to my community is something I’ve always dreamed of, and I’m excited to add to the growing Bubbakoo’s presence in the area.”

Bubbakoo’s Burritos has become a fan-favorite over the past 16 years for its unique menu, superb customer service and welcoming dining environment. The new Bubbakoo’s Burritos offers the classic menu items the brand is known for, such as the recently renamed Papi Hibachi (hibachi style steak and shrimp) burrito, Nashville burrito, Burritodilla, customizable entrees and more. Each menu item is made with fresh, tasty ingredients that will please any palette. 

“We’re thrilled that our concept continues to flourish in newer markets like Connecticut,” says Paul Altero, co-founder of Bubbakoo’s Burritos. “Given our New Jersey roots, we know that capturing brand recognition in other states is crucial to our sustained nationwide expansion. Operators like Hiren are exactly what allows us to continue growing on such a large scale. We’re excited to continue to support him as he embarks on this next stage of business ownership with Bubbakoo’s.”
