Iron City Pizza established a distinctive place in Birmingham's culinary scene by being well-known for its daringly inventive pizzas and artisan cocktails as well as for its friendly atmosphere and sense of community. The restaurant evolved from a place to eat to a local hangout, a neighborhood icon, and a piece of home, hosting everything from Saturday family trips and quiet Sunday dinners to post-work happy hours.

In addition to shared appetizers and beverages that enhanced any informal night out, the menu featured creative twists on classics, such as crispy, bubbling pizzas with carefully chosen toppings. Iron City Pizza has something to offer everyone, whether they enjoyed their trademark house pie, smoky pepperoni, or simply their expertly blended old fashioneds.

The restaurant is currently open throughout its usual hours:
