Fox and The Hen is inspired by a love of all things breakfast aka #MorningStuff. Here, we believe all the best things happen in the morning: sunrises, coffee drinks, small breakfast burritos tucked in large breakfast burritos and walks of shame. Born out of Carrie Baird and Michael Fox’s true love for classic American breakfast served with lighthearted twists and an equal passion of all things boozy-brunch-drinks, Fox & The Hen is your new LoHi all-day breakfast concept. Our focus is bringing friends and family together, incredibly delicious (and fun!) food, creative beverages and having everyone who leaves the Fox & the Hen feel their day is better than when they came in.We do not seat incomplete parties, sorry.

    Lovely! Our second visit. Service is perfect. Great ambiance. We had the special Valentines menu. The burrata was really creative in the garnish and presentation. Wish bread came with it as just forkfuls of cheese isn’t ideal. The squid ink pasta was very good. Alittle salty. Loved my short rib with polenta. Our desserts were outstanding and the decaf espresso was so good! Will certainly go back for the regular menu.

    The service and food were amazing. The staff at Linger were very kind, helpful, and courteous. The food was all around top quality. It was a specialty 4 course Valentine’s Day menu, by my girlfriend and I were very pleased with the choices and look forward to taking another night out at Linger to try the rest of the menu.

    Appreciated the two included plates of sandwiches, as we were still hungry after one. Atmosphere was lively and fun. You could tell the restaurant was running like a well oiled machine for Valentines Day but it honestly added to the ambiance for us, as the servers were polite but not obtrusive, and didn’t try to upsell us on anything we didn’t want. Dessert plate was a little too sweet for our palates but was still enjoyable, overall experience was great. Would do again next year.

    Wonderful neighborhood breakfast/brunch gem! We weren't sure what to expect as it was our 1st visit, but we were very pleased with the food & service. Not a fan of how the waitlist program works, but we were seated quickly.
