This is my second time eating at this restaurant with a 3 year gap and it was still as amazing as before! The sausage biscuit was fluffy and had a homemade "floury" feel to it. The Mortadella Sammy was sweet and salty, the combination of the fontina cheese and the blueberry jam worked well together. It was extremely busy, but our server was very attentive and made sure we had plenty of water. I will definitely be back when I visit Denver again! read more

In desperate need of a catch-up session, the girls and I made reservations at the trendy Fox and the Hen to do just that. It proved to be a great start to our day! SPACE: Located in the highlands, this place has become the new "it" spot when it comes to breakfast. It's easy to spot on the corner, has decent street parking options and cute as pie inside. Bright colors splash the walls, which are lined with booths and tables alike. Community seating is in the middle, which the girls and I were happy to dine at. The color scheme here is so fun and welcoming, creating a happy and fun vibe. SERVICE: We were greeted inside by a friendly host who explained they were on a small wait. MAKE A RESERVATION and you'll be able to skip the wait, like we did, as this place is popular and fills up fast! Our server, his name escapes me now, was SO fun. He had us laughing, excited about the various food and drink offerings and made us feel right at home. It was obvious he was outgoing and truly enjoyed his job, which made all the difference in service! SIPS: We all opted for various coffee and matcha drinks. I sipped on the iced cereal milk latte, while my sister sampled the fruity pebbles matcha and our cousin had the cortado. YUM! SUSTENANCE: Such fun and different food options - which had us craving both savory and sweet! We started with the sausage in a blanket and loaded hashbrown, which was so good! My sister opted for a benedict, cousin got the massive breakfast burrito, and I opted for the breakfast salad - which was perfectly seasoned, crunchy, salty with a runny egg on top. SERIOUSLY YUM! We also chose to try the buttermilk and blueberry pancakes, because why the heck not?! Everything came out in good time, was pretty in presentation and absolutely delicious! Portions are massive so come hungry! Here's to more breakfast dates at this new and fun spot!! read more

Came here for brunch with friends (3 of us) and was told we'd be seated in about 30-40 minutes and to grab a drink from the bar and/or some small bites. We opted for just a cold brew since it would only be 30-40min until we'd be seated no need for small bites. 45 minutes later we kept thinking our name would be called next. After a 1hr 45min wait I approached the hostess desk and then we were finally seated. Things to note. They do not give accurate wait time and they already add their 20% gratuity so they do not care about their service. The food was alright, the sausage and biscuit small bite is a breakfast sausage wrapped in a crescent roll. The Bloody Mary was good and the place is cute. read more

"Fox and the Hen" gets two stars. One for the servers, who were friendly, attentive, and genuinely trying their best, and another for the nice atmosphere and design... though the painfully loud music completely ruined the vibe. It's hard to enjoy your meal when you have to yell across the table like you're boarding an evacuation helicopter. This is brunch, not a Vegas pool party at 1 p.m. Calm down with the DJ energy. Then comes the real kicker: the automatic 20% "service charge." According to the restaurant, this fee helps compensate the entire team and is not a tip or gratuity, meaning customers are still expected to tip servers on top of that. So let me get this straight: customers pay for the food, subsidize kitchen wages, and tip separately because the restaurant doesn't want to build fair wages into its pricing model? Bold strategy. And if you leave the standard 20% tip on top of that service charge, you are basically paying 40% extra on top of menu prices, which is insane. The food was nowhere near good enough to justify that. Safe to say this was both our first and last visit. read more

So yummy!! It's my first time visiting and I tried the hash brown animal style which was delicious & super crunchy, we also had mortadella breakfast sandwich with crispy onions, scrambled eggs & blueberry jam I know it sounds weird but it was so good! The blueberry pancakes were also delish, TBH everything sounded great read more

One of the best spots we tried in Denver! Everything tasted amazing. I still think about those pancakes, sour dough slice & potatoes! We came here with a friend before we headed out to Pikes Peak and I am so glad we did. I ordered the two eggs, potatoes & sour dough bread. My husband ordered the chicken sandwich and our friend ordered the tacos con huevos. We were all happy with our food orders and raved at how good everything tasted! I wish we were able to come back here before we left. read more

I appreciate they have a waitlist option but it was very daunting to see that I was close to number 60 on the list around 11 am. It's prime time for brunch so be advised the wait can be quite long. We were very lucky and snagged two seats at the bar which are open seating - there are only 6! The brunch gods were smiling down at us. The menu has some unique and tasty options. We got the passion fruit lemonade (refreshing), an ice coffee with oat milk (they give you the oat milk to add in to your liking), a spritzer type cocktail, an unsmothered burrito, a side of pancakes, a tater tot, and a traditional breakfast. The pancakes were probably my favorite item as they were nice and sweet and fluffy. The staff was quite nice, lots of outdoor seating to enjoy on a great spring day, super busy on a Saturday and I expect the same on a Sunday. read more

Stopped by on a Monday afternoon for our brunch fix and stumbled upon this cute and fun spot. They took time to explain their service fee included concept and their hot sauce wall with so many options. We ended up getting the deconstructed Big Mac omelet with fries and a build your own omelet (only chose to get mushrooms and bacon inside) with a side of potatoes. The Big Mac omelet was flavorful if craving a burger but had to get used to having ground beef with the eggs. Otherwise, loved the concept! The BYO omelet was as a bit underwhelming but I wasn't expecting much from my basic order. I was hoping the potatoes would have more crisp texture on the outside and some more flavor though. read more

I can see why this place is popular! The vibes are so chill and I love the hot sauce wall they have where you can just pick out something to try. The coffee was really good and the portion sizes were great. The servers were all really helpful and nice. The peanut butter in the french toast was really gritty. I probably wouldn't get that again but maybe the Big Mac omelette read more

Everything from the atmosphere, service, and food was incredible! So flavorful with great options to choose from. Tried a variety and loved everything! Such a cute brunch/lunch place!

Throughly enjoyed brunch at Fox and the Hen! We waited about 20 minutes for a table around 10:00 on a Monday. 20% gratuity is added to your bill. Breakfast burrito: 4.5/5 (recommend getting the sauce on the side so it's easier to eat and doesn't get soggy) Biscuits: 5/5 Chicken sausage: 3.5/5 Fun bright restaurant! Outdoor patio as well. Love the seasonal menu items! Kind server! read more

We joined the waitlist at 10:00am before leaving the house and weren't seated until 1:30pm. It's worth noting, there's no estimated wait time. You are instead given a place in line and it ticks down. Other places must turn tables faster or have more seating. Had we known it would be 3 hours, we would have gone elsewhere. On the plus side, you can watch your place in line on the OpenTable app. It lets you walk around so we made the most of it. Walked the neighborhood, grabbed drinks at another bar, and even checked out an open house before coming back. Overall it was a fun morning for our group but we were tired and so hungry by the time we got seated. The food and service were good, but fairly average overall. It felt on par with places like Jelly or Snooze. I'm glad they're doing well but don't be afraid to go elsewhere if the line is crazy. You're not really missing out. read more

Best breakfast we had in Denver! Foxy burrito was delicious. Everyone loved their food. They make a great mimosa. Service was fast and friendly. I recommend putting you name on the waitlist as they get quite busy. Cute interior and a nice patio weather permitting. We would all definitely come back to this place. read more

Cute brunch spot in highlands with a 20% service charge included. I ordered a spring menu special - spicy chicken biscuit, but it was too Asian tasting sweet, and I sent it back. They graciously offered me a replacement, and I ordered the standard breakfast. They removed the charge for the other item. Hated being that guy but they made me feel better about. I also got an iced cereal matcha with lucky charms (Who couldn't like that), and a nice strong passion fruit adult bevvy on the spring menu. Overall, good. I'll be back. read more

We came at 8:30am on a Saturday and the place was packed! Even with a reservation, we ended up sitting at the community table with a larger party. They were friendly so it was great. The host did give us the option of waiting a little longer. They have a heated patio to extend the space a bit, but it was so cold it wasn't open today. The food was stellar. So impressed with everything- the chef really knows how to play with texture. We did the foxy burrito, which was perfectly spicy and had fried potatoes in it for a little crunch. We tried some of the hot sauces but it really didn't need it. The hot sauce wall with local hot sauces was a great touch though. We also had the pb&j French toast- it tasted more like a pb&j sandwich than French toast, which was good but not quite what I was expecting. I think next time I will try the pumpkin-less spice French toast, the huevos rancheros or the tacos. Other people at the table had them and I want to try them- not because our food was bad (it was excellent) but because there are so many good items on the menu that I want to come back and try them all. I was uber impressed with our coffee as well. We got the "not my gumdrop buttons" latte, which was a gingerbread latte with a little gingerbread cookie. First off, I'm a sucker for a good Shrek reference. Plus the latte was perfection- not too sweet, all the flavors were distinct. Plus it was served in the sweetest cup with a little fox that revealed himself as we drank it. Christine, our server, was upbeat and on it- fabulous service, even while running a 10 top at the same time. Highly highly recommend. Will absolutely be back read more

This place is so cute!!! There always seem to be a long wait, even on the weekdays, but my friends and I managed to get seats inside for brunch. I can't imagine how crazy it gets on the weekend. I ordered the French Toast with a side of bacon. Sooo unique-looking and tasty! Honestly it was a quick visit in the middle of the workday so I couldn't drink but would love to leisurely come here early one day again and try more things on their menu. read more

Such a cute brunch spot! Parking can be a little tricky since it's all street parking, but thankfully it's free. Totally worth it once you're inside, you honestly can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I'm a big fan of their simple breakfast, and I'm completely obsessed with their hot sauce bar. If you're a hot sauce lover, this place is a must! Service is friendly and efficient, but be prepared, it's almost always packed on weekends. They only take reservations for large parties, so I'd recommend going early to beat the rush. Cozy vibes, great food, and tons of flavor, definitely one of my favorite brunch finds! read more

Little hole in the wall that I thought was great. Amazing tasting food paired with great service. Everything was great however although they do let you know up front their will be a 20% automatic gratuity for BOH & FOH fees I thought that was a bit steep knowing at times not everyone is deserving of that. Side note I do give that on a normal basis but to just know it's automatically included when dinning in I thought that was interesting. Besides that everything was great and I for sure would comeback. read more

Finally got to try this place on a Thurs at 11am - we got seated right away. We had Oliver and he was great, he has a nice energy like he genuinely appreciates the place he works at. We started with Cappucinos and Mocha - they were great. Got the griddled muffin which was Zucchini Choc Chip, it was ok. Next I got the biscuit and gravy with sunny side up egg on top. It was really good. My guest got the Turkey Melt which looked good. There's so much that looks great- I can't wait till I can come back and try new stuff. I'm not near downtown Denver and weekends seem to be packed but hopefully I'll find myself with a day off again mid week and come back. read more

This place was hoppin! We got there a little after 9am joined the waitlist on the way. We were 8th in line then once we got there & checked in we were only 2nd in line. I had one of the best Bloody Mary's ever! The kind you don't have to tweak, it was perfect. As I'm sitting there enjoying my drink I see Carrie (the owner) walk by & I thought, where do I know her from? Top chef! She also helped me pick out a hot sauce from their wall of hot sauces. We started with the spicy egg salad on top of a toasted potato. I could've eaten a whole plate of those as my breakfast. Delish! We got the Flavo's rancheros & the French omelette w/ a hash brown side. Everything tasted great. However, I think everything could've been a little warmer. And sorry, I started eating again before thinking to take a pic. The inside is like a diner, with classic rock blaring & the Jetson's playing on the tv at the bar. I loved the atmosphere. Can't wait to go back, especially for weenie Wednesday! Carrie's dachshund is the cutest! read more

This was my last spot in Denver before heading to the airport and I'm so happy I left on a high note! I met a friend here to grab breakfast on the patio. It's well covered and has a variety of tables for different party sizes. We ordered two sausage rolls a split them. They were really good and a nice breakfasty way to kick off the meal. I ordered a latte and it was quite good as well. For my meal I got the ye old standard which is basic but everything was prepared nicely. I got eggs, bacon, and toast. We also obviously got a table pancake- nice and fluffy and a true positive addition to the meal. Our server was so kind and attentive, she had good vibes and was happy to be of help to us. I would for sure return here when I'm back in Denver! read more

I absolutely love this spot! One of my favorite breakfast/brunch spots in Denver. The atmosphere + food are unmatched. There's dining inside and outside (there is a tent in the winter), and bar seating inside. One of the things I love most about this place is the hot sauce wall! You can grab different hot sauces for your table at the wall - PLENTY to choose from! The servers are friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. I've had several items on the menu (every time I go, my table splits several dishes). A few of my favorites are: hash brown animal style, tacos con huevos, any of the toast options. They also have a delicious Bloody Mary (home made mix). Pricing is ~$20 per plate of food. Parking is all street parking. read more

Nut allergy friendly: No issues with anything I ordered. Order-to-Food: 8 minutes We got in line virtually at 10:10AM on a Sunday and we were number 46. We arrived at 11:10AM, told the hostess we were there, and were seated at 11:30AM. Parked in the neighborhood down the street. If you arrive early, you can order beverages from the counter. Unfortunately, they won't let you transfer a tab to the table, which doesn't help with using promotions (more on that below). We were seated in the corner outside, which was suitably comfortable with seat cushions on the bench. Service here is exceptionally fast! We got our food in less than 10 minutes from when we ordered. We were going for a $75 subtotal to get a $25 discount via inKind and ordered: Person #1: Pineapple Mimosa: A nice twist on the orange mimosa. Loved that they had some options for the juices. Best Bobby Flay-Vos: Pretty good green hatch Chile sauce. I thought the portions were a bit small, but I took a bite and they were quite good! Yogurt Parfait: I didn't try this but my friend enjoyed it. Cappuccino: Coffee isn't too intense here, a little burnt even. It passes, though, if you want something for the brunch. Person #2: Pineapple Mimosa: See Above Foxy Burrito (4.5/5): Holy smokes, this thing is huge. I ate it with a fork and a knife. Somehow, the potatoes inside remained crispy, which was really impressive! I enjoyed this and left stuffed. Sausage Roll and Spicy Maple (2.5/5): This is like a pig in a blanket, or for Southerners, a drier and less flavorful kolache. Being from the South, I vastly prefer our kolaches and this was too pricey for the small morsel that it was. Matcha Latte (4/5): Decently large and with a more earthy matcha taste. Nothing crazy, but I liked it more than the coffee I had. Overall, a really cozy brunch spot where a long wait is mitigatable with some planning. Great spot to use inKind credits or a referral. I paid via inKind and applied a discount with no problems! read more

A Must-Visit Denver Gem -- The Fox and The Hen Eating our way through Denver, we had high expectations walking into The Fox and The Hen -- and I'm thrilled to say it exceeded every one of them. For all foodies out there: this place is an absolute must-stop when visiting Denver! Located in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood surrounded by other great restaurants, The Fox and The Hen fits right in with its cozy, vibrant vibe. We're big fans of Top Chef, and my wife instantly recognized owner and chef Carrie Baird -- one of our favorite chefs from the show. To our delight, Carrie was in the restaurant that day! She came out to personally say hello and was incredibly warm, humble, and welcoming. My wife was starstruck -- it made our experience truly unforgettable. The atmosphere was alive with people enjoying great food and conversation. Our server, Natalie, was phenomenal. She knew the menu inside and out, gave excellent recommendations, and adjusted easily for personal preferences. She radiated authentic energy -- bright, kind, and attentive without ever seeming forced. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it made our dining experience all the more enjoyable. Now, let's talk about the food -- because wow: * French Toast -- Stuffed with cream cheese and absolutely to die for. * Salmon Omelet -- A must-try dish! * Tacos con Huevos -- My wife loved these flavorful tacos. * Beat Bobby Flay-vos -- Absolute fire, don't miss it. * Vitality Shot -- The perfect little pick-me-up. While American breakfast is one of our favorite meals, we love exploring all types of cuisine -- and this place delivered on every level. The flavors, presentation, and quality of ingredients were outstanding. Pro tip: The restaurant is very popular (for good reason), so expect a wait -- but it moves quickly. We were #22 on the list and were seated in about 25 minutes. The surrounding neighborhood is charming, so the wait is pleasant and well worth it. In short: The Fox and The Hen is a Denver must-visit for any foodie. I will absolutely return here on my next trip. Whether you're a local or a visitor -- put this at the top of your breakfast/brunch list! read more

Since arriving to Denver this was the best breakfast we have had! We ordered the Bobby Flavos and breakfast tacos, which were both delicious! This place is very kid friendly and had great options between booster seats and high chairs. It's such a cute location with fun decor and very friendly staff! The only downside to our visit was we did order a Fig and Apple Toast and a side of toast for our daughter and we never received it but when we received the bill at the end it wasn't included in the check but we do recall her writing it down when we ordered (it was a busy day) so maybe it was missed when submitting our order. We didn't say anything since we were full. On our way out we ordered 2 hot drinks to go and one was brought in a to go cup and the other was in a mug to drink there instead of a to go cup. So small miscommunications I think on the staff end but good experience. read more

10/10 no notes. The food was amazing. Had the breakfast sammie, burrito, chicken sausages, and hash brown animal style. The blueberry jam on the sammie secured 20 stars. Even if the food had been mid (it wasn't) I would still go back to see Ollie. He's great. Also. I LOVE when restaurants let you join the waitlist remotely. Helps you time your arrival when you can see how quickly people are being sat. Today we had 27 people ahead of us and we walked to grab coffee. Enjoyed the weather. Sat in under an hour. No pics. Camera ate last. read more

I can't say enough about this place. In town for work, was looking for a unique breakfast spot that wouldn't break the bank. Found this spot by asking Google for Black Owned Brunch places since is Black History Month. Fox and Hen came up on the list. The place is clearly not black owned but I'm happy I got diverted there. The PB&J French Toast was bomb dot com. Absolutely delicious and the service was top tier. The wait was about 30 mins because they were packed with a pretty lively wait list that moved faster than the 1hr or so wait they said I would have. I sat at the bar style seating since I was solo as usual. The bar staff made me an Irish coffee (I had 2) and it was delicious with the proper amounts of everything good including the coffee. Can't wait to visit this place again and try their Avocado toast. I had a side of bacon with my pb&j French toast. I highly recommend this trendy brunch spot. read more

I will definitely come back next time I am in Denver. read more
