I am likely in the minority here but I just never liked Fireside Pies. I am not sure why, I love pizza but just never could get into that place. My wife loved it.
Honestly, I could understand not making it in (former) Crockett Row... if they couldn't make it work here, then maybe it was just them.
They had a corner spot and everything.
I don't think they moved because they couldn't make it work in Crocket Row because when it was there it always had a good crowd on most days of the week. I believe they moved for other reasons... According to Bud Kennedy from a Star Telegram article in Feb of 2022, "Fireside Pies closed due to the “changing traffic,” along with industry challenges, a spokeswoman said in a written statement. And other restaurants who left the area said “The money is made from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. down here. .... They want something different than what we have,”
