About First & Broad

Who We Are

We are a fun and funky pizza joint located in downtown Cairo, right beside the train tracks. We are kind of like a mullet haircut, business in the front and party in the back.

The walls in our front dining room are full of Cairo’s Famous and our bar walls are full of motocross jerseys and memorabilia.

We are proud supporters of our local community, the motocross community, and sports.

How It Started

What began as Home Slice in Cairo grew into something bigger with the same local heart.

When the opportunity came to move into the old downtown train depot, the vision expanded along with it. In 2022, the Holders made the move into the larger space and First & Broad was born, named after its location at the corner of First Street and Broad Street.

Today, First and Broad continues to build on that foundation by bringing together food, community, events, and local culture in one place.

The Cairo Community

  • Local Love

    From downtown supporters and local sports fans to families, friends, and everyday regulars, First and Broad is built for the people of Cairo.

  • Motocross Madness

    Cairo is the Motocross capital of the world. First & Broad is proud to embrace the Motocross culture that has made Cairo World Famous.

  • Emergency Responders

    We are proud to support the emergency responders who serve Cairo and the surrounding area. Their work, sacrifice, and daily presence in this community deserve recognition, and we are grateful to be a place where they can gather, eat, and feel appreciated.

  • Breast Cancer Awareness

    Karen Holder, the owner of First & Broad Pizza, is a breast cancer survivor. Every October to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month, First & Broad “flocks” to local businesses to raise money for uninsured, high-risk women to get mammograms.
