When The Fox Bar opened in East Nashville in 2017, it became an instant classic. It’s a space that feels like it’s been there longer — gleaming with Art Deco touches and with an extensive back bar fit for the most serious of spirit drinkers. But what’s happening on the menu is just as inspiring — the well illustrated (literally) menu is speckled with tropical riffs among more classic but still highly creative takes. It’s a place you can’t go wrong, whether with a pristine Manhattan or a Concord grape margarita, plus nostalgic bites including a Fizzy Glizzy and a mortadella sandwich.
