MASON CITY – Local eatery Pies & More is closing their doors, but not right away, an employee there confirmed today.
The restaurant, located in Willowbrook Mall and in operation for years, will stay open until September 1st of this year.
The employee we spoke with said they were closing because “Mercy Hospital had bought half the mall.”
This rumor is not true, as Mercy Hospital marketing department spokesperson Jodi Ball confirmed today that Mercy is only possibly interested in leasing “some space” at the mall and nothing more.
Willowbrook Mall manager Kent Hall returned a phone call this afternoon and said he is not happy about the rumors going around about Willowbrook. He stated that “At this time we are investigating our options with the longevity of the property.”
More on this developing story to come.
