Starting in April, you can watch the Arsenal game on a Saturday morning with a cold beer and thin, crispy pizza at Five Wits Brewing Co.
The company is bringing the pizza oven back in a new venture called Five Wits Pizza Joint. Barrelhouse Ballroom marketing and event manager Olivia Weaks said via phone that the hope was to utilize the venue during the day. In an effort to keep the energy flowing in the Barrelhouse Ballroom, the space will be open for the neighborhood to enjoy for meals outside of concert times.

“Pizza will be available for lunch and dinner seven days a week,” a press release said, “with dedicated seating for non-concertgoers. Ticket holders can enjoy early access and pre-show hangs featuring bar pies and beers.”
The Barrelhouse Ballroom space used to be Market South, a food hall. Taylor and Mike Monen (owners of Taco Mamacita, along with other local restaurants here and in Nashville) converted the space into a music venue in 2022.
