As more people continue to discover Bayonet, we wanted to share some of the stories behind the restaurant—stories that began long before opening day.

From our bayonet plant logo, our parlor, the raw bar, and even the plates beneath each dish, every detail was intentional.

We knew we wanted our seafood to be served in a way that felt distinctly Bayonet—bold, yet understated enough to let the food remain the star. That search led us just down 2nd Avenue North to Katherine Tucker of Civil Stoneware, whose work immediately felt like it belonged at Bayonet. Together, we tested colors, sizes, and finishes until they felt just right.

One of the things we love most about Birmingham is the incredible talent that surrounds us. From restaurants and coffee shops to artists, makers, and small businesses, this city is filled with people who inspire us. They’re more than vendors—they’re neighbors, collaborators, and friends.

We’re grateful to share Civil Stoneware’s beautiful work with every guest who joins us at Bayonet.

For us, hospitality has always been about people—and this is one of those stories.

Over the past week, we have been reminded just how special this community is.

To everyone who reached out with kind words, prayers, flowers, meals, hugs, and support for our Bayonet family—thank you. Your generosity, compassion, and love have meant more than we can express.

Today, we reopen our doors, carrying Mona’s spirit of hospitality with us. We look forward to welcoming our guests back and honoring her legacy by caring for people around the table.

Join us today as we reopen Thursday, July 9, with Happy Hour beginning at 3:00 PM.
