Citing sales that were too low to keep it open, Piccadilly Cafeteria officials confirmed Monday that they are closing their Temple location today. Rick Fuchs, executive vice president/real estate director with Piccadilly Cafeterias Inc., headquartered in Baton Rouge, La., confirmed the reason for closing the location.

Colonial Properties Trust purchased Temple Mall from Temple Mall Co. in 2000. Parker said the closure is difficult for customers.
