Book NowAbout The Foxtrot
Tucked behind Falcon Street, The Foxtrot delivers subterranean cocktail bar warmth alongside charred steaks and live weekend jazz. Settle into the multi-level layout—airy street-view nooks upstairs, moody basement corners below. Patrons praise owner James and his floor team for attentive, low-key hospitality that keeps glasses full. An open wood fireplace anchors the room against the chill, while bartenders pour smoked Old Fashioneds over hand-cut clear ice. Diners turn out for Wednesday steak night, pairing rare cuts with house focaccia and chilled reds.
- Working Indoor Fireplace: A working hearth provides rustic warmth in the lower lounge during cooler months.
- Split-Level Layout: A split-level setup offers an airy street-facing upper space and a moodier basement bar.
- Saturday Live Jazz: Live acoustic sets take over the venue on Saturday nights alongside the cocktail list.
