Classy and small town feel. Great bar. Menu is very creative. Service staff are excellent. Experience a local chef's originality.

Amazing farm to table food! Service is great! The atmosphere is really nice for girls night and date night!

Never a bad meal here. Service polite and accommodating. The overall feel is welcoming comfortable.

Great food, excellent choices and skilled professional staff. Only negative was the noise level however not loud enough to lessen a five star rating. Highly recommend! read more

I'm glad we stumbled across this restaurant while visiting Vermont. There was live music on a Thursday evening. Service was great. The pizza was our favorite. We also ordered pork belly tacos, cheese plate, mussels, fried chicken (more like chicken tenders) and steak. read more

A great locally-owned, farm-to-table gem. Great staff and a fresh, creative menu. Swanky bar. I've visited several times and always enjoyed the experience. read more

Great place. Love the decor and the waitstaff is super attentive and kind. The food.. oh boy!! Wow!!!!! Loved everything we had! Our waitress was Sam. She was the sweetest person. The bartender went out of her way to make sure we were happy with our mixed drink as well. I loved how they put up a big thick cloth barrier so you wouldn't feel the draft when you walk through the front door and into the dining area. If it wasn't so far away, I feel like we would be there way too much! I seriously can't wait to find a way to go back! Thank you, Copper Fox!! You will are ya again!! read more

I went to visit a couple friends who raved about how good this restaurant they checked out the night before was. We decided there was definitely no shame in returning a second night in a row for them and for me to try it. Not disappointed at all. Great drink, food and service read more

This place deserves more than 5 stars. I found The Copper Fox on Yelp and it looked great, as did the reviews. Those positive reviews were spot-on. I booked a reservation as they require. The interior is very well done, tasteful and eclectic without being crowded. I sat at the bar and the service was very good, attentive but not overly intrusive. Both the soup of the day and the chopped salad were phenomenal. You can truly taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients here. The kitchen isn't cutting corners. Don't pass up the lemon curd dessert that I was told I "needed". read more

Our first time going and it was amazing. The food was delicious and the folks who work there were very attentive and welcoming. It had a great vibe and by the time we left it was packed to the gills. We will definitely go back. read more

Great food. Pleasant pub atmosphere but also an excellent restaurant. Service was friendly and accommodating. We had a variety of items on the menu and they were all great. Especially the "dirty potatoes" and the fish tacos with swordfish. Also several great desserts from tiramisu to gelato, which we shared. Lots of fresh Vermont farm produce and meat. It's off the beaten path in downtown Springfield. read more

The Copper Fox - Fish tacos with swordfish. Local beer. - New American Near Me - Springfield, Vermont

Ordered takeout fish tacos, was told over the phone that they were Halibut tonight. Got home to discover that our Tacos had a small piece of Halibut smothered by left over dry reheated crunchy pork roast. I don't know what else to say other than - why? Pork does not belong on fish tacos. read more

Super cute restaurant in Springfield if you're passing through like I was and needed to stop and charge my car. The sweetest waitress and staff that could not have been more accommodating with a two year old in tow. As for the food, I got an avocado toast which was more like a salad on a piece of toast than an avocado toast. Still super yummy but not was I was expecting. The avocado is cut up on the toast vs being smashed and spread across. Potato wedges were hot and salty, no complaints there and my daughter loved her OJ. Definitely worth a stop. read more

A little gem in Springfield! Huge windows looking out onto the small-town Main Street. Classy mix of modern and rustic interior. Might get a little loud for dinner service with all the hard surfaces but just fine for lunch. I ordered the roast beef sandwich... perfect flavor balance, nice rare beef, and even the potatoes and salad hit the right notes. My aunts ordered a mushroom Reuben... which is not on the menu but the chef obliged and it was also delicious. The only thing off-putting but not enough to knock a star was the ketchup was made from onions and not tomatoes... tasted a little odd. They do have Heinz but you have to request it. Dessert was a chocolate pecan bar with coffee ice cream. The aunts got ice cream and tiramisu. The pecan bar was just right... soft and gooey but very flavorful. Worth a lunch stop if you are driving near! read more

Now the food was delicious I had the surf and turf and my wife had the salmon. Food was so good we went back again a week later and had another wonderful meal . lol forward to the next visit read more

We absolutely love this place! Small town, good people running a farm to table restaurant, sourcing from local farms. They have hit the nail on the head. Everything is made from scratch so be prepared to enjoy your time with friends and family. Located outside of the busy ski towns but a diamond in the rough! Don't miss this spot. read more

Last night for dinner we made a reservation. We were seated and greeted by a very friendly waiter. He was great, we took our orders and got the dirty potatoes to start. It's a local favorite so had to try them. Very good. For main entree I got the flank steak. Really delicious as well. They have a nice bar area and some murals on the walls. The place is a little pricey but the food is pretty good. If you're looking for a dinner spot, I'd recommend it. read more

Hubby and I went for our anniversary. Our waiter was very attentive, had great suggestions for us and was an overall delight. We had the charcuterie board, a few delicious cocktails and dinner. I had the fish tacos and he had their burger. Delicious! The evening we were there, they had a cellist playing and it was truly beautiful and matched the dim lighting. We plan on making this our anniversary spot going forward. read more

I had the most wonderful dining experience here. The service was fantastic. Great ambiance. This is the only place in town to get food like this. Absolutely recommend. read more

Beautiful place, good food, and very friendly service. Horribly long wait. My party of 2 arrived for a 7pm reservation and we weren't even seated at a table until an hour later at 8pm. It took another 45 minutes for our food to arrive: a burger and a salad. At this point people that were seated after us had already eaten and left. While we were waiting we looked over the lower star reviews and saw exactly what we were experiencing. If you are going to believe any review, please believe this one: eat before you come, you will be waiting. Most of the other guests were also discouraged. The place isn't that big, and there is more than enough wait staff. I genuinely have no clue how we ended up spending 3 hours there. I guess it is more the type of place people come to chill out for the night and have drinks with friends- which sucks because the food was good! Would be a great restaurant if the service wasn't so slow. read more

We've eaten here 4 times in the last 5 months. The food is consistently very good. Lovely cocktails. I would happily recommend the Copper Fox on food alone with a solid four stars for food. However: The service at our most recent visit was extraordinarily slow. Unacceptably slow. It was more than three hours from ordering cocktails to paying the bill at the end of the meal. I did appreciate the server acknowledging that some thing was amiss with the timing. Although he never said what it was- he just kept thanking us for being patient. Also - the restaurant has horrible acoustics. We struggled to hear each other at a four top and our ears were ringing when we left. A simple addition of acoustic tiles to the ceiling would solve this problem and make it a far more comfortable dining experience. This is a nice restaurant, almost great. They need to keep trying, and not rest on their laurels as the new (ish) cool spot... read more

I wish there were a few more options for food, but what they have is good. Service can be a bit slow, but they're all very friendly.

The Brisket was delicious. The gnocchi that came with it was perfect. Great Pinot noir from France paired well. This restaurant with its fantastic reviews did not disappoint. The four of us really enjoyed our meals. Go! Enjoy. Cheers. read more

Good food. Good ambience. Bar staff not attentive.

Truly the best restaurant in Springfield, I love the Copper Fox. The first time I went with my wife, we figured it would be good, but never imagined this! It's not even about the quality of the food, which is great. But when the waitress greeted us and started saying the specials, I said something like "oh we're vegan, so we'll get something else" because the special was a meat dish. I don't even think I said it to anyone in particular, but the waitress responded "oh you're vegan! We can do something special for you!" And I've never done this before in my life, but my wife and I said "ok, we'll have that!" without a clue what it was gonna be... and it was great! Again, it wasn't even about the food. I just felt at home there, and anytime we're going out for a date, the Copper Fox is going to be a top choice. Springfield has a lot of heart, it just needs a chance sometimes. Give it a shot! read more

I have been to many restaurants and this place is special. From the ambiance, the vibe, fun staff and HARDWORKING, they don't stop moving! The chefs and kitchen staff take very special care of every plate. The menu is constantly changing and we come back every time we're up in Vermont and when we move here we will be here weekly! Great food!!! Thanks Elise and Nick! read more

Great creative food, friendly staff, a good atmosphere for locals and visitors to Vermont. Thanks he bartender is a brilliant mixologist.

Service was great. Jamaican pork shoulder was super yummy. Would definitely go back here.

Our cousins just hosted a meal at The Copper Fox following the funeral service of their brother, our cousin. Apparently, The Copper Fox was one of his favorite haunts. For good reason. It is a warm, charming, comfortable, local haven. And the food was unexpectedly superb. Whoever is working the flavor magic in that kitchen is a master of their craft. We were served a rich, beautiful, complex salad of fresh greens, seasonal vegetables, torn cheese, and a light, flavorful dressing. I didn't have the meat, but the roasted, seed-crusted salmon was moist and well-seasoned. The sweet potato, carrot, root veg hash was very tasty, not overly sweet as one might expect from the ingredients. But--the true piece de resistance was the warm potato salad. I heard more than a few others declare it the best they'd ever had. I don't disagree. I couldn't figure the flavors, not mustard, not curry, not mayo, olive oil? Maybe a little of all. I couldn't grab it. Outstanding. I didn't even mention the local beer and wine selections, the kind, efficient waitstaff, the real paintings on the walls, the metal-covered tables, and the copper-covered bar. Nice place. Really nice place. Authentically honest. Please open a branch in our small town. read more

Fun, quirky little place with a creative menu and some personality. I stopped in with a few friends on my way north and had a nice lunch looking out at the charming downtown. Pleasant waitress, and the menu had just enough twists and turns to keep us on our toes. Why not skip the chain restaurants and seek out a minor adventure? We'd go back if in the area again. read more

We tried this out based on the reviews and what a nice surprise! We were greeted at the door with a smile and taken to our table at the reserved time. The specialty cocktail menu had some very unique selections that were delicious. The main menu was full of great choices including gluten free and vegan options. Portions were good size and cooked perfectly. Loved everything and will be back soon. read more

WOW!!! What a great dinner tonight at The Copper Fox. Jade our server was outstanding. Great recommendations and she made sure we had a great experience. Everything was great from the look of the room and the bar area to the cocktails and apps. Oh, yeah then there was the dinner. My wife had the cod, and I had the brisket. It was a 10 out of 10. We will be back really soon. A must stop if you are in the area or on the way to Okemo and coming through Springfield. read more

We dropped in on a Saturday evening. Our reservation was at 7:30 and our table, about the last to be filled, was ready, the band was playing and the place was rock in'! We ordered drinks from the well stocked bar and soon ordered appetizers ("dirty potatoes" that were just excellent!) and a burger to split. The food was top notch as were the drinks and entertainment. The service however, was slow. It took an hour for the appetizers to arrive. We took our burger to go 30 minutes later as our 2-year-old grandson was ready for bed. I suspect that, like a lot of small businesses these days, it's a struggle to hire competent employees and with unemployment at historic lows, help has been hard to find. The slow service though didn't seem to be a problem for others in the full house as the music and libations made for a fun time! read more

Super cool, down to earth atmosphere, super nice people, great food and drinks! What more could you ask for? The Dirty Potatoes are amazing and plentiful, enough for 3-4 people. Clam chowder with croutons and bacon was flavorful and amazing. Clean, well spaced and very Covid comfortable. read more

Very overpriced. Poor service, seriously watered down drinks poorly prepared food and a wait staff with an attitude. This restaurant is in the same location as 56 Main. That is all that it has in common with that restaurant. The very young chef formally worked at the Hartness House Inn. He and his wife are the owners however I suspect there may have been other investors. The food was marginal. No bread basket. Extremely high prices. Poorly made drinks. I highly recommend not wasting your afternoon or evening at this establishment. read more

Our little town while certainly full of its own charm in other categories doesn't typically rank high when it comes and new and interesting eats. Yet, nestled right here in the heart of downtown Springfield, Vermont is one rare and delightful little Copper Fox. Much like the animal namesake, you won't find pretentiousness or flamboyance abounding. Oh no, certainly not here. The restaurant's style while upscale remains inconspicuous with subtlety selected decor yet impeccable attention to detail. The bar area features a beautiful copper topped bar that seats at least a dozen and a glorious wine beer and handcrafted cocktail menu that will have us all coming back for one more. This small, cozy environment is best suited for small groups. Having three children of my own, my personal suggestion would be to little ones home and enjoy an intimate night out with a small group of your favorite foodies. (Picky eaters should probably stay home with the littles). Be prepared to spend more on average than you would at local spots, but be prepared to enjoy it immensely more. Experienced Chef Nick Matush has created quite an impressive menu with locally sourced ingredients that had us literally pulling at the doors prior to opening day. Among the favorites tried that night were, the cauliflower soup, P.E.I mussels, the grilled flank steak, and the swordfish. All incredible - and all will be repeat orders. I literally made another reservation while writing this recommendation. It's seriously that good. read more
