EP24 - Marty McPies - Marine, Train Mechanic, Pizza Artist

Hecho Corpus Christi

Welcome to Episode 24 of the HECHO Podcast, the podcast featuring the Coastal Bend’s creators, makers, doers, and builders. On this episode, we visit with Martin Flores and Jefte Flores from Marty McPies in Downtown Corpus Christi. Martin began serving pizzas out of a food truck and built up such a following, including your host, that he decided it was time to move into a full restaurant space. This episode was recorded before Marty McPies officially opened, and since it opened the restaurant in the summer of 2024, Marty McPies has been serving incredible pizzas and other creative items in downtown Corpus Christi in the building with the giant scuba mural along Shoreline Drive. If you haven’t had the joy of a Marty McPies pizza, you owe it to yourself to get one!

With all of its success, Marty McPies has had the opportunity to be featured in The Bend magazine a couple times since it opened the restaurant. Head over to thebendmag.com to check out those articles and to see Marty McPies pies on the front cover of the November 2024 issue. Also, be sure to check out Marty McPies on The Taco Chair on youtube hosted by Gerald Flores. Thank you, Martin and Jefte, for coming on the show. Thank you to our infrastructure partners, Clint Tucker Homes and Sawyer Audiology. And thank you for taking time to listen!
