John's City Diner

$30 and under
Comfort Food
By blending a bit of the old with the new, owner and self-taught chef Shannon Gober has transformed this Downtown Birmingham landmark into John's City Diner. While the restaurant still maintains much of the charm from the past, the decor and menu have undergone a complete face-lift. The menu at John's City Diner features a wide range of flavors from modern Southern comfort food to European Gastro Pub inspired dishes. We use only locally grown or Organic produce. Every meat that we use is hormone, GMO and antibiotic free such as Beeler's Pure Pork, Springer Mountain Farms Chicken and Creekstone All Natural Beef. Our bar features local craft beers on draft, many wines by the glass and hand crafted cocktails using our Barrel Select Spirits and the most honest ingredients available. As we like to say at The JCD: #GetSome
