The following year, a lunch wagon was opened, and in 1934, the diner relocated when Route 1 was re-routed. Moody\u2019s continues to be a family tradition, as it is currently operated by the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of its original founders. It boasts about its consistency and the unique relationships between the staff and the customers, but it is hard to think about Moody\u2019s without thinking about their renowned pies. Although they\u2019re searching for the next generation to take the reigns, there is no doubt that Moody\u2019s Diner will continue to be a home for their many patrons, and that their success will continue to prevail.<\/p>\n<p>Film by Ernie Arguilar-Arizmendi and Marissa Pitter<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-6609\" data-postid=\"6609\"
