5 Point Public House and Oyster Bar

We came here with a group of 8. Clarence was our server. He did a very good job. Lots of different beers on tap. Wine list needs some help, and the lemon drop martini was not even drinkable (sour, watered down, gross). Appetizers we tried: spring rolls (spicy! and delicious), Parmesan fries (excellent), oysters (excellent), house made chips (good), cheese curds (good). Everyone raved over their entrees (especially the steak pasta). Margherita flatbread was mediocre, and the shrimp pasta was a 2/5. Panko shrimp on top were good, but the ingredients in the pasta dish were haphazard and there was one overwhelming spice that was just gross (thyme? Don’t know, but multiple people tried it and thought dish was bad). The table had 3 different desserts (bread pudding, cheesecake, and peanut butter hand pies). The bread pudding was decent, but the cheesecake was FABULOUS. Literally one of the best, most creamy cheesecakes I have ever been delighted to try. I would definitely go back, if for the cheesecake alone. Service good, prices fair, atmosphere fun: would recommend.

We are frequent fliers at 5 Pts because we love the food and drinks. Service is usually great too, save for a couple of times when we had a bartender (we usually sit at the bar) who was pretty apathetic towards us. But this time we had an excellent bartender who was engaging and knew how to make drinks. The food was very good as usual, and we will certainly be back soon.

Good beer, good food!

Every time I visit the Birmingham area I make sure to stop at this restaurant for food and a few drinks. The oysters are top notch and cleaned nicely. I highly recommend the "Murder Point" oysters. So damn good.

Great place with fantastic food.

Had Oysters, fish and Chips, several different beer and cocktail options. The food was good but not great. The $12 signature drink was served in a lowball glass with approximately 5 Oz of liquid. Wine was $9 per glass for $7 per bottle wine. The drinks were okay. Service was great. Overall I don't think I will return due to the value/quality for the money.

Great oysters and good service although it was packed
