Given the "Coal-fired Pizza" restaurant chain that is opening around here, it seems that yes, yes there is.

In what way is pizza cooked over coal supposed to be appetizing?

New York style pizza was developed in coal fired ovens. So, if you're going for that particular style, then coal fired is a nice, salable gimmick.
 
I don’t think they put the coal in the oven with the pizza, there is a firebox below it to radiate the heat up. There is a great pizza place in New Haven (Pepe’s) the does that and their pizza is phenomenal.

Yeahbut, if there's a separate firebox and the smoke never gets to the pizza, why not use clean burning propane gas?!

I'm obviously easily confused by marketing...
