"Avondale spot Parkside on Fifth has one of the most distinct atmospheres and best patio spaces in Birmingham’s entire bar scene. Formerly home to a home and garden shop and Parkside Cafe, which closed in 2021, Parkside offers craft and draft cocktails, beer, and food from longtime patio resident, the Airstream food truck Hotbox. Consider it an elevated version of its predecessor. Be sure to pay your respects to Tab, the bar cat who recently passed away." - Sarra Sedghi
