Cincinnati’s oldest firehouse, which was blighted and had been vacant for 40 years, was stabilized and renovated to become Fireside Pizza, a unique neighborhood restaurant and bar in Walnut Hills.

The grand opening of Fireside Pizza is September 27 at 11 a.m. and will kick off the Cincinnati Street Food Festival.

Fireside Pizza has participated in every Cincinnati Street Food Festival. It was partially because of this event and the transformation of Five Points Alley that the operators of the food truck chose Walnut Hills for their bricks and mortar location.  Fireside Pizza is located at 773 E McMillan and is open from 11 a.m.-11 p.m. every day.
