Small Town Living 3 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Living in Marrero is pretty typical small town living.

The great big Mississippi River is a short drive away as well, which makes living in such a slow city pretty okay. As someone who loves nature and spending an afternoon fishing on the boat, living near the river is a blessing.

The best areas in Marrero to eat are the typical fast food chains we are all familiar with; McDonald's, Popeye's, stuff like that. We do have a few unique restaurants though. I recommend Schnells. They have some of the best seafood that I've ever eaten, and the people who run the shop are incredibly nice and helpful as well. That's another small town thing; in general, the community is great.
