Shield's has been part of Metro Detroit's history since 1937 when Shield's Bar opened at the corner of Davison and Shields Street in Detroit. Shield's later started serving award-winning pizzas and salads and featured the ever-popular square, deep-dish pizza. Shield's speedily became a landmark and a favorite gathering spot for families, politicians, athletes and public figures alike. Shield's was purchased in early 1997 by brothers Paul and Peter Andoni.
