Things To Do
Vulcan Park and Museum
Go to the top of Vulcan for one of the best views of the city! And the museum is a great stop for lots of Birmingham history.
The Market at Pepper Place | Saturday Farmers Market
The summer market at Pepper Place is a great way to spend a Saturday morning! Driving in? Pick up some fresh treats to take home with you! Flying? You just may find some unique Birmingham treasures to take home from local artists.
Birmingham Botanical Gardens
Free to visit, and the Japanese Gardens are well worth the walk! (One of our engagement shoot locations!)
The Pizitz Food Hall
A great all-in-one lunch stop -- get a taste of several great Birmingham restaurants! A few of our favorites: Eli's Jerusalem Grill, Ono Poke, Unos Tacos, and Piper & Leaf Tea Co..
Birmingham Zoo
You gotta visit the elephants! Roll Tide!
2nd Avenue North
There are many bites and sips to be found right around here! Our recommendations? Bamboo on 2nd, El Barrio, Cafe Dupont, EastWest, Carrigan's Public House, The Collins Bar, The Atomic Lounge, and The Wine Loft. (Believe it or not, there's still so much more this area has to offer!)
Birmingham Museum of Art
Another free to visit location! Joe's favorite: the Bierstadt (take a right after entering, past all European art rooms) Kate's pick: the sculpture garden
The Battery
Home of Wasabi Juan's & Gus's World Famous Chicken -- both regular favorites of ours! Also home to Birmingham District Brewing Co.
Birmingham Civil Rights Institute
An educational and cultural center, exploring our common past and working to build a better future.
Avondale
Home to many of our favorites: Post Office Pies, Big Spoon Creamery, Avondale Brewing Co., and Saturn. (Also Saw's Soul Kitchen...but trust us and skip that just this one time.)
Regions Field
If the Barons have a Friday night game, we highly recommend it! Also nearby: Good People Brewing Co. and Monday Night Brewing Social Club.
Five Points South
Home to 5 Points Public House and Oyster Bar, the site of our first date! Also home to Chez Fon Fon with the best burger in Birmingham. Try the Original Pancake House for breakfast!
