Your Pie of Perimeter, Georgia Celebrates One-Year Anniversary by Giving Back

As Morgan and Lisa Maclellan’s Your Pie location in Perimeter, a neighborhood in metro Atlanta, Georgia, approaches its one year anniversary, the husband and wife duo are preparing to celebrate this milestone with a bang—by giving back to the community that supported them along the way.

For one day only, on February 6, the Maclellans will offer customers $3.14 off all pizzas, paninis and salads—a deal that’s best paired with discounted beers from Eventide, a popular local brewery regularly featured on tap. The event, which runs from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. (EST), will also feature live music and swag giveaways.

The Maclellans, both in their late 20s, are graduates from the University of Georgia. With previous experience working for other big brands, the husband and wife team were intrigued by Drew French, the founder of Your Pie, and his story—not to mention his unique take on a classic Italian-American staple.

“As I was exploring opening my own business, I immediately thought about Your Pie. The brand has been a favorite of mine since college because of the delicious pizza and craft beer. I've been on the 'pizza diet' this past year, and honestly I haven’t had a pizza, panini or salad that I didn’t like,” said Morgan. “We strive to create a fun, laid back atmosphere where it's nice to hang out with friends or family.”

As home brewers, the business owners were also drawn to Your Pie because of their appreciation for craft beer.

“We both have a passion for entertaining and love to see how food and craft beer bring people together. It really produces a sense of community, and that’s what we’re all about here at Your Pie,. ” Lisa added.

In the year they’ve been open, Your Pie of Perimeter has kept their community at the heart of their business. When the New Gyro Pie was introduced in January 2016, a Greek-inspired pizza based with a zesty homemade tzatziki sauce, the Maclellans decided that for every one of these Craft Pie series creations purchased, they would donate another pizza to help feed local families in need through their partnership with the Community Assistance Center—a nonprofit organization founded to provide short-term assistance to people facing an unexpected financial crisis. The goal is to donate 365 pizzas in a single day in honor of their one-year anniversary.

“Without the support of our local community, we wouldn’t be able to celebrate this incredible milestone. This is our way of saying thanks to everyone who has helped us along the way, while simultaneously giving back—it’s about doing good while eating deliciously,” said Lisa. “We’re excited hit our one-year anniversary on such a celebratory note, and we’re even more excited to continue being a part of the community in the years to come.”
