Maureen and Brian Hayes opened their first pretzel cart on The PIER 43 years ago.

Today, they now have 2 eateries and 5 snack carts at PIER 39.

Maureen reflects, "The first time I walked down PIER 39, I fell in love." She shared that the flexibility of running her own business has allowed her and Brian to spend quality time with their daughter and ensure they would never have to miss a dance recital.
