Fox and John's Restaurant + Bar Review

We went here on April 20th,2025.

Fox & John’s has taken over the old Craft Brasserie spot after a solid 10-year run, and honestly, the transition feels right.

The space has been reimagined into a modern pub with slick black-and-red branding, a sea of TVs for game days, and a whole separate section carved out for live music and dining, so you can choose your vibe depending on your mood, or live music opportunity.

Our server, Andrea, was friendly, helpful, and easygoing. The kind of service that adds to the experience without hovering or trying too hard.

We stopped by for a late lunch and were pleasantly surprised. The dry-rubbed ribs were meaty and tasty— not fall-off-the-bone soft, but good enough to make you reach for the next one.

The Cajun dry-rubbed wings were crispy with no no gimmicky sauce needed. The fries? Again crispy and soft in the middle (finally, someone’s paying attention), and the side salad was fresh with a nice mix of crunchy veg, not just a sad bowl of lettuce pretending to be a salad.

Drinks didn’t disappoint either. The Old Fashioned was proper; not too sweet, balanced, and clearly made by someone who knows what they’re doing behind the bar. The espresso martini (not pictured because it didn’t last long enough) was equally well done.

Overall, this place feels like it’s made for Liberty Village. Trendy, functional, and just elevated enough without trying too hard. If you’re after a game-day hangout or a casual meal with solid cocktails, Fox & John’s in Liberty Village is a strong yes.
