The local pie haven is home to some of the best pies you will ever have – especially the key lime pie. Marie Callender’s was started by none other than Marie Callender herself. She came up with the idea and got it going while living in a trailer park. Originally, Marie began baking pies to support her family, but the restaurant became a massive success. Unfortunately, in 2009, the family went through a hard time which resulted to problems with the restaurant. Marie’s husband passed away and since then, the restaurant had been struggling. It filed for bankruptcy and shut down many of its branches.
