Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions
Great for creative cocktails

After years of working Downtown Indianapolis, Executive Chef/Owner Jake Burgess decided to come home and open an establishment that delivered the style of service and quality of food he had become accustomed to. FoxGardin is tucked away on quaint Main Street in Fortville.

Minutes to Geist, Fishers, Klipsch Music Center, and I-69, and only 25-30 from downtown Indy, FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a perfect spot to sneak away, while still being close to everything!

***FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a 21+ establishment. ***

Another great experience at FoxGardin! We had excellent food and service! We went there for our anniversary and my husband called ahead asking for a special set up and they did an amazing job! Our server had not been there very long, but he was excellent and we hope he sticks around! We have been here countless times and will keep coming back as we have never had a bad experience!

My husband and I both ordered a special that included wall-eye pike over a bed of arugula, shaved beets, squash and other delicious ingredients. It was AMAZING! Specials are always a treat at FG, but this dish was exceptional. Add to this the great food, atmosphere and service (Thank you, Sarah!) and you have an evening to remember!

My wife said let’s go somewhere with good food so we went to Fox Garden, of course! We had the walleye special and roast beef manhattan. The walleye was delicious, light and flaky. The Manhattan was also very tasty and the portion was Huge. Presentation was well done as well.

My husband and I both had the tenderloin. We both had some gristle in our sandwich. The fries were good! That was our first visit, and we drove from an hour away just to eat there. I would go back if I was in the area, but I probably won't make a special trip.
