Your Pie location coming to Liberty Park

A new pizza restaurant is set to be open for business in Liberty Park by fall 2016.

Your Pie is a fast casual restaurant chain based out of Georgia offering $8 pizzas with customizable toppings. Lloyd Peeples, the Birmingham-area franchisee, said the Liberty Park Your Pie will be the second of three in the area.

Peeples said the pizza chain will occupy 2,500 square feet inside a new building to be built near 8000 Liberty Parkway. He will take possession of his space by July 1, 2016, and anticipates opening for business in late summer or early fall. 

Part of the appeal of Liberty Park, Peeples said, is that there aren't other pizza restaurants in the Liberty Park area. He thinks Your Pie will also be popular with youth teams playing at the nearby Liberty Park and Sicard Hollow athletic complexes.

"There seems to be a void for pizza," Peeples said.

He is currently getting ready to open a store in Homewood in December, and is looking for a downtown spot to open in 2016 as well. Since he lives nearby, Peeples said a Liberty Park store makes a lot of sense, but he will divide his time equally between the three locations.

"I obviously like the food and like the concept, so I want one close to me," Peeples said.
