Fairfield Says Goodbye to Urban Smoke Bar & Grill as Closure Approaches

Farewell to Urban Smoke Bar & Grill in Fairfield

Fairfield is bidding a bittersweet farewell to one of its beloved dining spots, Urban Smoke Bar & Grill, which will close its doors this Sunday, September 29th. The establishment, known for its vibrant atmosphere and tantalizing flavors, has become a cherished eatery and sports hangout since it opened in 2019.

A Journey from Food Truck to Restaurant

Owner Draper Mason began his culinary journey with a food truck that quickly captured the attention of local food lovers. Mason transitioned from the food truck scene to open Urban Smoke, providing residents with a variety of exciting dishes, including mouthwatering wings, Philly cheese steaks, and catfish combos. The restaurant was located in the heart of Bellview Plaza, making it a convenient stop for many Fairfield patrons.

Urban Smoke wasn’t just a restaurant; it served as a community hub where friends gathered to watch sporting events and enjoy dynamic flavors in a lively environment. The venue also offered a casual bar setting perfect for kicking back with friends.

Plans for the Future

While the closure of Urban Smoke’s location in Fairfield is a significant loss, Mason is not stepping away from the culinary scene. He is actively searching for a new space to reopen the restaurant, ensuring that the community can continue to enjoy his exciting menu. According to reports, plans to announce the new location are forthcoming, which should give the community something to look forward to.

Community Sentiment

The impact of this closure is palpable in the Fairfield community. Mayor Eddie Penny expressed his feelings about the restaurant’s closing, stating, “The City of Fairfield will miss the Urban Smoke restaurant. I appreciate the five-year investment Mr. Mason made to the city and I wish him well in his future endeavor. We are certainly saddened by your closure and wish you much success for your next endeavor.”

As the last day approaches, many locals are making plans to indulge in their favorite dishes one last time. It will be a fitting send-off for a restaurant that has undoubtedly left its mark on the community.

What’s on the Menu?

For those wondering what delectable options await them this weekend, the menu features a tantalizing array of items that have made Urban Smoke a local favorite. From crispy wings to juicy cheese steaks, diners have plenty of choices to satisfy their cravings before the restaurant closes its doors.

Urban Smoke Food Truck Continues

While Urban Smoke Bar & Grill’s brick-and-mortar location may be closing, fans can still enjoy Mason’s culinary delights via the Urban Smoke food truck, which will continue to travel across Birmingham. This offers a glimmer of hope for those who are eager to keep the flavors alive and enjoy the unique dishes that Urban Smoke has to offer.
