Marie Callender’s Restaurant & Bakery

I went to Marie Callender’s over the weekend they charged me three times for one chicken pot pie when I want to talk to the manager he was very rude about it and when I asked there was something I could do to reimburse me they offered me two muffins they were very rude and don’t waste your time or money in this place

Slow it has been 40 minutes and still waiting for food. Had to beg for bread. The coffee was nasty. Praying food is good. Wow

Very Disappointed right now. Ordered the Whole Turkey & Spiral Ham Feast. looked fine in the Box. When i got home ready to pre-​pare the food i turned over the Ham only to find 7 greenish White Mold all over the Ham. They are 40mins away Round Trip. Now i have to Drive back to return it! Wasted almost 2 hours on my xmas eve.

Absolutely HORRIBLE service. My boyfriend has been on queue for a $ 150 refund since November and has came back to them several times now asking what happened to his refund. One of the managers is responsible for it and she has yet to call him back or address him. According to another manager, she should have gotten back to him by now, but she still hasn’t. This is by no means fair and I don’t know why she hasn’t gotten fired yet. Is this any way of running a restaurant? I think not.

So we pre-​order our meal for Thanksgiving along with a bunch of other people and they run out of whole turkeys so we get 2 turkey breast instead. OK so that’s the good part.
How do you, as a company, do this EVERY year and are still this disorganized? You had turkeys missing, pies everywhere, can’t find the peach pie. You have ONE person taking your name and physically highlighting the hard copy and repeating your name to the «grabber» who runs to the truck, gets the box, runs and gets the pies, forgets the extra sides (because he’s only one person and the highlighter girl doesn’t do anything but highlight). They forgot my whip cream too. lame.
If I were running this gig, it would be SO efficient, I would use modern equipment — ya know, like an ipad, walkie talkies, pre-​packed boxes, name tags, separate lines, more people. Really, it’s not that hard.
Everything is pre-​ordered, how can you get it wrong? It’s predictable.
Food is good though, the process needs work.

I made an order week ago for today (thanksgiving)
And had to pick it up at 11
When we got there was a long line, which I don’t get it why they arranged the time to pick up time ?! And after ¼ of line got their order they said no more whole turkey, just have turkey breast, which this line just was waiting for whole turkey either us, so I am so disappointed, they really didn’t care about it just said sorry but we finished all whole turkey, why they get orders weeks ago? Why they don’t count for order anyway they ruined our thanksgiving. This was our first time and last time with Marie Calendar. I give them no star if I could but as I have to score minimum I reluctantly will give them one star. Their service and quality of food was absolutely terrible. Never again with these folks. We are not happy for what they did,

Thanksgiving pies at MC… this place is packed and they are so organized and cheery (they must be running on pie because it’s 9:12 at night
Came for the brunch feast for staff at the LV DOG HOTEL
HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Their coconut cream pie and lemon cream cheese pie is life changing. So good. The service is subpar as usual and I always order for pick-​up.
Note: You can’t order a whole pie and dine-​in there because the whole pie is $ 13 but a slice is $ 5.

Went to this location for lunch today. We were seated right away as they were not busy at the time we arrived. Our server came over and took our drink order, brought us our drinks and then disappeared for several minutes, without bringing the cream for coffee. When he finally reappeared, we had to again ask for cream. We finally ordered our food and it came out fairly quickly. The food tasted ok. Our problem wasn’t with the food, it was the service. All fairness to our server, it seems as if they were understaffed. He never refilled drinks, didn’t check on us until after we had finished eating. Left dirty dishes on the table, no one ever came to clear our table. I would think a manager should of stepped up and did drink refills, table bussing, customer service, etc., if they were short on help.

Today was the first time we did not enjoy our pot pie & Caesar salad. Our waitress was fine but the salad was not crisp & the pot pie was full of large pieces of carrots & celery. Not the usual flavorful dishes. Too bad because we eat here often.

No Sunday brunch at this location. What? That’s what Marie Calendar’s is all about. I was craving their Sunday brunch and that’s the whole reason we went in. The food we had was ok. Not bad not great. But I was too disappointed missing out on brunch to enjoy it much. All locations should offer brunch.

Usually a good standby choice with meals a cut above some of the other national chains, while their menu doesn’t have the selections of some of the others they do have a good variety. Haven’t had a bad meal but sometimes the service can be hit or miss but that can happen at any restaurant. Their Hashers are good sized portions and the French Toast combo is a good value, in my opinion their one weak link is their pancakes, if that is what you have a taste for then perhaps one of chains with pancakes in their might be a better fit. Pies are good but a bit pricey unless they have a special and the muffins and very good when they are fresh, if your in the area and undecided it is worth a stop.

Marie Callendars has been my go to place for a decent hot meal lately when I don’t feel like cooking. I always get the lemon crusted salmon with veggies. The salmon is always so warm and moist! I love the avocado shrimp stack appetizer too! Yummy :) I always place a Togo order and I’ve never received bad customer service.

I don’t like to complain, but this time, The service was so poor, I ordered Togo tonight, the cashier’s never say hello, thanks, please… Seems like she doesn’t want to service me .i will never come back.

Stopped by to pick up some muffins this morning. They have a great deal. Buy 4 large muffins you get 4 free. Or simply you purchase 8 muffins for under $ 12. The muffins are huge and moist! Way better than anything you would buy at some grocery store.
I’ve eaten at this location many times in the past. The food is great and so is the quality! Good size portions and always something new on their specials menu.
The staff is friendly and efficient!

Nothing beats their pie sale. October and February, I believe. My fave is the lemon cream cheese. I had a refusal for my fave, because it was sold out, so, I went with a stellar replacement, Chocolate Satin. My son called it chocolate Satan… oh my. There’s truth in them words.

Ordered their trio of sides for Thanksgiving this year– did their complete feast last year with positive results, and with less of us celebrating I wanted to take a short cut again.
Pickup was a bit of a mess, and ultimately I received my order, but no one really checked or confirmed it– I gave my name, a list was checked, I wasn’t on it, but I was given my sides. Offered my ID to check, brought the card I purchased with, but both were waved away without checking. I appreciate that it wasn’t a hassle but feel there should have been a lot more organization.
Potatoes, stuffing, and gravy or 6 – 8 people was $ 25– not bad at all. Preorder with minimum 48 hours notice, up to a couple of weeks in advance.
Lunch special of pot pie, salad, and a slice is a good deal at $ 10– choices for chicken pot pie, tuscan shrimp, or the beef, plus a slice of one of their standard dessert pies, and you can upgrade to a featured/​seasonal pie for a fee.

Very slow this morning, thought coming early we’d miss the church crowd however with only two tables still had to wait five minutes to be sitted, the one sever for the place and he wants to be social and talk family with one of the other tables.
They gave us the special menu Monday through Saturday for breakfast with special prices, so when my husband wanted to order, they informed him it would be two dollars price difference. He decided to order a full stack pancakes and side of sauage, what he got was a short stack (two pancakes) and his sauage. He’s still hungry!
I ordered the BTA which was the bacon omelete, hash browns and toast, mine was good!
Service was poor waited on refills never came, asked for check took forever and check out we took it up ourselves! Their pies are good!

Blueberry cream pie yummy my all time favorite and it reminds me of my mom, since she use to buy it for us for the holiday’s. Go when they have their special’s, I believe that they have their pie sale twice a year. Happy Unilocaling

Years ago, I did eat at a Marie Callender’s somewhere in California. From what I remember, the food was good. But then again, that was a pretty long time ago.
We got invited to Thanksgiving dinner at a friend’s house and I thought it would be a good idea to bring over some pies. Not the cheap grocery store kind. I wanted ones that were reputable and delicious. I called the restaurant in the beginning of November and asked how their ordering process works. The employee told me that because they sell so many pies during Thanksgiving, they don’t do pre-​orders. However, they would have a tent set up in the parking lot with a lot of their pies available to purchase, so all I would have to do is come on down.
Luckily, the day before Thanksgiving, I got out from work early, so I drove straight here. The parking lot was packed and the line was pretty long! But, it wasn’t as bad as it looked. The employees did a good job at keeping the line moving. I think because they only had 2 registers and had to either fix or replace the register tape often, that was the reason why the lines didn’t move any faster. Plus there were some customers who were like «What? These are THAT expensive? On second thought, I’ll just buy one.» Ummm hello… read the signs people! You had all that time waiting in line to look at their prices and to decide! I picked up Pumpkin and Chocolate Satin (this one is made with a Oreo crust.
Listening to other people’s conversations, pre-​orders can be done online. They had a separate tent for pre-​orders of pies and feasts, with a short line. Good to know for next year! The pies were tasty. The Chocolate Satin pie was kind of rich, but everyone enjoyed both. I may come back and to buy more pies for Christmas this year!
