Jim Davenport's Pizza Palace is a family-owned pizzeria which opened at 2837 Cahaba Road in Mountain Brook Village in 1964. It is named for baseball player Jim Davenport. The restaurant feature's thin-crust pizzas with a tangy home-made sauce cut into small rectangles rather than large wedges. The main dining room is softly lit and decorated with wrought iron and classic movie-star photos. A second dining room is neon-lit and stocked with a small assortment of classic video arcade games. The kitchen is open to the lobby and is decorated with souvenir's of Davenport's baseball career.

For a while there was a second location on U. S. Highway 31 in Vestavia Hills, with a classic red delivery truck parked outside.

Davenport's has been honored for "best pizza" several times by the Birmingham News reader's choice awards.
