In February 2024, Post Office Pies closed the doors of its Avondale location after ten years. Luckily, the restaurant’s Mountain Brook location—which opened in 2020—is still around.

Located at 209 41st St S, the former Post Office Pies space was in a prime spot next to several of Avondale’s most popular establishments, including:

  • Avondale Brewing Company
  • Saturn
  • SAW’s Soul Kitchen
  • Dzire Bar and Lounge
  • Ampersandwich
  • Cinderella Story
  • 41st Street Pub and Aircraft Sales
  • Black Market Grill (coming soon!)

In March, Bham Now reported that a new restaurant would be filling the pizza-joint-shaped-hole in Avondale. Dubbed Miracle Pizza Co., the restaurant is affiliated with the neighboring Avondale Brewing Co.

“When our good friends from Post Office Pies decided to consolidate over to Mountain Brook, we saw an opportunity to add to our block and integrate this space into Avondale’s concert series.

With the help of Ben McPherson, our chef who moved from Houston, we’ve been able to add to the concert experience by offering slices both pre- and post-show.”
