The Fox Bar And Cocktail Club

Nashville has developed a genuine cocktail bar culture over the last decade, which means the bars at the top of the category have to work harder to separate themselves. The Fox has managed it by combining a serious program with a space that has real character built into the walls.

The drinks are the priority and the execution shows it: seasonal cocktails built around quality spirits, interesting vermouths and bitters, a menu that rewards coming back because it changes with intention rather than just cycling through slots. The classics are made correctly, which is the baseline for any serious bar and not always met.

The space is the other half of the appeal — a vintage room with the kind of atmosphere you can't buy or design from scratch. The lighting, the details, the whole physical context makes the drinks taste better in the way that context always does.

The Fox is a bar worth making a destination of.

The Fox is one of Nashville's better cocktail destinations. Full review coming when we can give it the attention it deserves.
