Lost Fox

I hate having to give bad reviews, but sometimes you just have to. We had been here for a trivia night it was really fun! But, we ordered drinks but we didn’t order food. This time we went for brunch. It was not what I was hoping for based on the ratings. It was both a service issue and a quality issue. Half of our party got their food and it was was warm but not hot and one of our (87 year-old grandma ordered eggs over medium (you know how picky old people can be) and they came hard, she asked for new eggs and the response was “well, we are really busy, you may have to wait a while.” Ok Lost Fox, hire more people, or take fewer reservations! The food for our other half didn’t arrive until 20 minutes later, (reviews in the pics) some of it was good, some of it was bad. When everyone was done with their meal, her eggs came. I get that mistakes happen. The Manager’s solution was to remove the price of one bad item, which she noticed wasn’t eaten, and offer some free cake, which was a nice gesture.

I live downtown and I wanted to try out new restaurants, so my friends and I gave Lost Fox a try. However, I left feeling completely disappointed. I am very understanding and empathetic when it comes down to businesses and hard working people, but I won’t be coming back. When my server Danny came around with waters, he was very patient as my friends took a while to come. He’d come ask me if I needed anything and I told him I’d wait for them to arrive first, so I appreciated that. But when I was drinking the glass of water, I noticed that something was on the left corner side of my mouth. I thought perhaps it was a piece of crumb or something — even though I haven’t ate anything yet and I didn’t eat anything upon arrival. I touched it slightly with my finger until I looked closer and saw… that it was a piece of glass. I couldn’t believe it. This is the first time I have ever experienced this. I could’ve swallowed it and would’ve had to go into the ER right away. So when Danny came around, I told him about this, and he quickly took the cups back and brought us new ones. I’m not someone who makes a big scene out of anything so I quickly got over it, and I was pretty nice about it too, because I assumed he would do a kind gesture like offering a discount. Plus, I know it’s not “his fault,” why would anyone do this on purpose, right? When he handed me the receipt, I didn’t see any discount, or an apology that could make me feel like I was cared and seen for. I want to feel valued as a customer so I could return again even if it almost could’ve been a terrible accident. It was as if this one piece of glass had just been forgotten about, like I just almost didn’t swallow it. I gave him $40 in cash and he asked if I needed any money back, and I just told him to keep the change. Regardless, I still tipped and I didn’t cause any scene or make it a big deal. With that being said, I don’t think Lost Fox is a terrible place, but the restaurant and the team there left a bad impression on me, so I won’t be coming back. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Lost Fox is a charming spot with a warm, welcoming vibe. The staff is genuinely friendly, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. They’ve got a great selection of quality products — from coffee to cocktails — all thoughtfully prepared. The atmosphere is relaxed and stylish, perfect for hanging out with friends, getting some work done, or just enjoying a quiet moment. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to again and again.

This was my first time to visit the Lost Fox. I ordered their signature burger. If you love pickles, you will love the burger more than I did. The pickles overwhelm the overall flavor of the burger. The fries are GREAT! I would go back just for the fries. The service is good and friendly. The atmosphere is fantastic with art lining the walls.

Food was decent, pricy burgers. Cafe coffee was good. Oh don’t try to use the bathroom without getting hassled. Coded key, asked a worker, gave me a bitchy attitude like what? Do I look like a bum? And I walked past her like so many times while dinning. I hustled wanted to wash my hands lady? Lol it was funny actually. It the old lady with tattoo. She probably owns who knows but the arrogance ugh that bugs me. Anyhoot cheers.

Lost Fox is a fantastic spot! The staff was incredibly flexible and accommodating for my keto diet. I had the bacon turkey pesto sandwich on lettuce, and it was delicious—the bacon was excellent and it was the perfect guilt-free meal. As a tea lover, I was also so impressed with their high-quality, loose-leaf Earl Grey. Highly recommend this gem!

Nice place to hangout on a Sunday afternoon. There was plenty of seating, lively but not super busy and the staff was very friendly. I had the basic breakfast for brunch and a Miel latte. Both were delicious! The bacon was nice and crispy. I got a large latte and had to get a to go cup because I didn't want to waste any of it. Definitely coming back

They have a great stack of board games to play. I had a delicious espresso martini but be warned that they add dairy unless you ask them not too. Very cool vibes.

Ambiance - outside: Simple sidewalk patio, partially shaded by a fence with vines/flowers. There is a set of double doors at the entrance. Ambiance - inside: High dark painted ceiling, and an open floor plan - consisting of the cafe (right) and restaurant (left). The two spaces were divided by wooden, rectangular inline planters. The first wall you see walking in - opposite door - is made of yellow/tan brick, with several contemporary art pieces hanging on it. This gave the space a sort-of hip and artsy feel. That wall is counterbalanced by the opposite wall, which is painted black (or dark blue) with random white stars on it. Food: I ordered broccoli cheddar soup and a "Beef-ziki burger". The soup was creamy, cheesy and somewhat zesty. There were a couple of sizeable (I'd prefer smaller) pieces of broccoli in it. The burger consisted of 2 beef patties, taziki sauce, feta cheese, cucumbers, onions, lettuce and tomatoes. It was VERY GOOD, and a unique burger offering (to me). The burger came with an ample serving of thin French fries. The fries were hot and generously salted. Service: Two thumbs up for server Danny L. He was prompt, professional, attentive and accurate. Overall a pleasant and satisfying experience.

My friend and I stopped here briefly after sending our friend to the Amtrak station across the way. Hence, this shop gets points for convenience. We were 3rd in line but getting nervous & wanting to rush back because we forgot to pay street parking. Thankfully both of us decided our orders while waiting & the process was quick. My friend was told they ran out of maple syrup so she said pumpkin spice was fine. I got the banana pudding matcha & spinach/artichoke roll. Both of these are my go-to's in other coffee shops, so I knew they wouldn't disappoint. The matcha was great, almost keeps up with Merit Coffee in Austin. I'm actually shocked at how fast this specific combo has taken over specialty coffee shops, I thought it was unique to Merit! The roll was flavorful too but could be better if warmed - I understand the line was getting longer behind us so staff was in crunch time (and so were we!)

Twin Cities grub - east side of the river - 2 of 2 At this point, on the east side of the river in downtown St. Paul, I took it upon myself to find the place to eat. I did this by just asking someone. It's no surprise that the person I asked was a foreigner working as a doorman and security guard. I bring this up because I find myself speaking to foreigners more so than my American contemporaries would. At any rate, the Lost Fox was suggested. The Lost Fox is right there in the center; however, it sits to one side of the platform at the Union Station Depot terminus of the Metro Green line. It doesn't jump out at you ... after all, the fox is "lost." Upon entering, you are inside a woodsy locale that has a good vibe. The front part is more of a coffeehouse, with books and laptops open while people have coffee or tea and something to eat on the sides of their tables as well. Moving a little inward, it becomes a restaurant and there is a bar slightly further in. We got to pick where we wanted to sit and were attended to promptly. My friend had a pulled pork sandwich. I had a Cubano sandwich. My friend accompanied the pulled pork with a pale ale beer. I had the usual refillable soft drink. My friend thought the pulled pork sandwich platter was good. I thought my Cubano sandwich was just okay. In looking at both platters, they seemingly used to same pulled pork to stuff the Cubano sandwich. Almost every Cubano sandwich I've had uses a pork loin that features larger more intact slices and seem to be pressed with the other ingredients. I prefer that presentation and, truthfully, other Cubano sandwiches I've had have tasted better. The service at the Lost Fox was very low key and helpful. There is an interesting mix of people in the restaurant and in the coffeehouse. While downtown St. Paul seemingly goes into a slumber after 5 p.m. and it's much smaller than Minneapolis's downtown, it is the state capital and people will want to eat or do the coffeehouse thing here later than the hours kept by public offices and local businesses. Given that, the Lost Fox is open late. They also have a reputable weekend brunch. While I didn't ask, I'm guessing my friend would give the Lost Fox 4 stars. It's my review, so I'm going to go with 3 stars, albeit a strong 3 stars. It's because the Cubano sandwich was just okay. However, while I didn't have the opportunity to return, this is the sort of woodsy coffeehouse I would enjoy patronizing and, additionally, they had some desserts that were priced fairly and looked tasty. That said, I would recommend the Lost Fox for its multifaceted possibilities as a restaurant, coffeehouse, and bar that you can easily reach by the Metro, parking your car nearby, and even on foot in this compact city center.

Party of three, two of which were first timers, came in for dinner. We were immediately seated and quickly ordered chicken wings as an appetizer. We placed our orders, which took quite awhile to arrive, with one party's order arriving well before the other two entrees. The chicken wings appetizer arrived after our entrees, which the server apologized for. We ordered a chicken rice bowl, hamburger, hotdog, fries and the ahi tuna salad. The rice bowl was plentiful, as were the fries. They were out of hotdogs, so they served two "halved" small hotdogs in a large bun. It tastes the same I guess, but it was a visual disappointment. The ahi tuna salad was a miss. The salad was dry, yet over saturated with dressing at the same time. The tuna was cut poorly (very uneven and fraying edges) and had a very obvious "previously frozen" texture. It was almost like it had severe freezer burn but without the freezer burn flavor. It was weird. And for $17, the portion was inadequate. Our server was a sweetheart. Upon leaving, I attempted to order a latte at the coffee bar. The server/barista literally made four drinks while standing less than five feet away from me, without acknowledging me whatsoever. When he was ready to take my order, he turned to the register and just stared at me. No "what can I get you" or anything. It made me super uncomfortable! I received my latte without a single word. Someone in my party had eaten there last night and had this man as his server in the restaurant area and received good service, so maybe he was having a bad night. We intend to eat at a neighboring restaurant, but ended up here due to the other place being closed. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again, but it wasn't bad enough to never return.

Ambiance, food, and service were amazing. This was an accidental find for us and as a bonus we discovered was right around the corner from a beautiful park and the St Paul farmer's market. Bonus number 2 is that there is a full coffee bar in the restaurant!

We came to Lost Fox for the first time for brunch; it's in a convenient location right off the light rail & across from Union Depot (which has a parking garage). I loved the look of their branding & logos! The decor is interesting; it feels like there was an existing space that the business moved into & added some decor (neither here nor there, but it wasn't necessarily a selling point). The restaurant has 2 halves, one side is seated with a server, the other is cafe style where you order at a counter. We sat on the served side & our service was great. I got a Vietnamese coffee, which was the Americanized version with espresso. It was pretty good but didn't pack as much of a punch as traditional Vietnamese coffee, at least in terms of flavor. I also had the eggs Benedict (with the prosciutto on the side) with their mixed green salad as the side. The mixed greens were not what I'd call a salad; it was literally lettuce with some red onion & I couldn't taste any sort of dressing. The eggs Benedict itself was tasty, a standard English muffin with really good hollandaise. The eggs, though, were definitely too overcooked to be considered poached, so that was a bummer. The prosciutto was crispy, almost like it'd been air fried, & my husband enjoyed that. He got the lox eggs Benedict with the breakfast potatoes & a side of mixed berries; the dish originally came out with the mixed greens, but the staff corrected it & brought out the potatoes & berries quickly. The potatoes were worth it; they were crisp on the outside & soft & potatoey on the inside, which was a highlight of the meal. All in all, I may come back to try the cafe side of things. Prices were very reasonable, so it wasn't a bad experience overall. The service was excellent so we can't complain too much :)

Ambiance is awesome, chill. Great art on the wall. Bar, food, coffee what can't you love!? A Ghostly Bargain - whoa!! Very citrusy, full of gin flavor. With an aftertaste of sasparilla which is very interesting I really love the decor and the people that work here are very beautiful!!

My friend and I came here for dinner and loved the vibes! The front half of the space is a coffee shop and the back half is a restaurant / bar. They had live music starting as we were leaving. I love live music so this was a positive in my books! The staff were friendly and attentive. We went around dinner time and were able to get a table right away. I ordered the Cubano Sammie and my friend ordered the Pulled Pork Sammie. Our sandwiches were ok, not the best we've had, but we'd both come back again for sure to try other items on the menu and enjoy the good vibes!

I love the location of lost fox! I'm usually not in downtown St. Paul but the area around this cafe is sooo beautiful!! I loved it! There is plenty of street parking but you do have to walk as lost fox is right in front of the green/blue line so there is no parking. However the walk was super cute as you can see the buildings and there is a nice park a block away. Lost fox itself is HUGE and I love the cozy ambiance they have!! It is great for a study session especially since they're one of the only shops that are open later, closing at 10pm and 1am on weekends. There's so much space and a side that is busier than the other, one for eating with a bar and tables, while the other side is more for studying with a coffee bar and plenty of outlets. The bathrooms are very clean too and require a code. The only downfall here was the actual service. I tried to order a coffee as I believe there is not heating there, however nobody was at the bar so I asked someone in the restaurant side and she said she would send someone over. 30 minutes in line and there were about four other sets of customers in line with me but nobody came over. This was on a Monday night and I just sat back down, I understand they could have just been busy but I would definitely still recommend this spot!

The food was great!! The service was great! The drinks were great! I was in town with my siblings for a wedding and looking for a local spot to catch a game. This place was perfect. 100% local beers. A "bar food' menu with lots of options. Chill bartender and server. Local vibe with a bunch of regulars. A bohemian scene that I love. If you're looking for a Michelin restaurant then keep looking. I'f you're looking for a local spot with a friendly staff and good vibes then you've got it right here.

Stopped and tried some lunch. Really great atmosphere, open and bright with lots of games. You could walk up to the counter and order or pick a seat and have a waiter come over. We ordered lunch and some drinks. Service was great. And we were able to get in and out quickly!

Excellent food and service. Great drinks. The Brussel sprouts were amazing. My husband had a great burger. Really cute place with a relaxed atmosphere!!

This was a really neat spot. I was in from out of town and needed to work during the day from my laptop, and had a great choice of food and coffee. The atmosphere was just the right mix of noisy and cosy to lock in without feeling like I was taking someone's spot, and the staff were all friendly and attentive.

Went here for silent book club on a Wednesday evening and oh my goodness! Such a cute spot! Coffee shop on one half and more restaurant on one side. Super chill vibes. Some people hanging out, other s with laptops. It was a very interesting mix. We LOVED the sweet curry wings and the fries were HUGE for $6. Will be back again!

Stopped in for some quick apps and drinks. The vibes of Lost Fox were a great first impression - very open, bright, and welcoming. A good selection of drinks, both N/A and alcoholic. I tried the queso fries and they were very good. I want to come back and try more options when I have more time.

They appear to be very judgmental. They have all a welcome sign on their window but it's untrue. The local certain way in order to be welcome there and went in there twice and all that seen you just number white people. So if you are a person of color do not trust them. Managers they're a rude and disrespectful.

Lost Fox was my only coffee shop experience in the Twin Cities during my two day stay. A very charming space across from the St. Paul Depot and light rail stop. A mix of cafe, restaurant and bar with multiple seating options including sidewalk seating. Plenty of things to look at, or purchase from artists / makers. My Iced Vietnamese coffee was not the best in class - a bit on the weak side, so I'd steer clear of that on a return visit, but I would return for a different beverage or food if I so happen to be in dt STP. 3 stars for my beverage, 5 stars for the vibe and options.

Yummy coffee! Girls at the counter were so nice and helped me decide, seating area was spacious and had a cozy corner to read or get some work done! Muffins also looked and tasted so amazing!!

The service and food are fantastic. Definitely get the wood fired wings. They're delicious and are moist on the inside. They also come with a house made dipping sauce that is to die for. Great charcuterie boards, the cauliflower soup is very yummy and their Caesar salad was great as well. Especially delicious was the sticky pudding cake, which tasted like it was drizzled with some kind of spirit, but that was really just a caramel drizzle. So delicious!

Came here for dinner with my boyfriend- The vibe of the restaurant was very nice and there was an LGBTQ exhibit on the wall behind us which I thought was a cool addition to the space. We sat down around 7:45 and it took at least 15 minutes for a server to even acknowledge that we were there. Once the server came he put in our orders relatively quickly and was friendly, but the food ended up taking another 30 minutes to get to my boyfriend. They ended up making the wrong item for me and it took at least another 10 minutes to remake the item and get it over to us. Despite the circumstances, food was very good- my boyfriend got a Lost Fox Burger and I got the Beef-ziki burger. Both items were delicious, but ultimately not worth the time it took. After we finished, it took another 30 minutes to get the check to our table and when it finally arrived we were greeted with a 3% technology fee for using a card and had spent over $40 just for two burgers. I understand that it can be overwhelming when a lot of people are at the restaurant at a time- It seemed like a busy night and they were clearly understaffed for the amount of people there, but 30 minutes just to get the check is still a little ridiculous. Overall a cool place and a nice spot to grab a sandwich Downtown- I would just avoid going here when it gets busy.

Cool little coffee shop! Very trendy/hipster vibe. Coffee was delicious! I ordered the Ultimate Breakfast Bagel Sandwich and I think it was a top bagel sandwich I've ever had. More of a breakfast/lunch combo. Husband had the BB Breakfast sandwich that was good as well!

I'll be so for real, I was quite intoxicated by the time I joined friends here for drinks so my recollection may be a bit shotty, however I did like the atmosphere in addition to all of the beer options. Nice little cocktail menu and of course they serve wine. They apparently also serve some pretty tasty looking food! It's a local hangout spot super close to where I live and I'd definitely come back.

Aesthetically pleasing, friendly service, clean, & well-behaved dogs allowed!!! This place was an excellent and surprising find on a Sunday morning!! My friend and I had a lox bagel and ham/egg sandwich with tea & an Americano. We loved sitting at a little table and enjoying the atmosphere! Great music playing over speakers too!

Stopped by after getting breakfast for a grab and go coffee. Got an iced latte like I usually do and I was satisfied. I did feel like there was a bit too much milk and I wanted to taste the coffee more but that might be personal preference. Either way, the coffee was still pretty decent.

I stopped in around 4pm on a Friday. The bartender was friendly and welcoming. Our waitress was horrible at best, there were 2 tables there when my party arrived, took awhile to get service, watched as 1 table chased down someone to pay for their meal, as the waitress made and had a drink, chatted with kitchen staff then joked with other people I. The adjoining coffee section. Ordered a burger with no cheese (intolerance and food allergies) of course burger came with cheese and the waitress argued with me, stating it is butter, but when she went to kitchen to request a redo, you could clearly hear the attitude in her voice, because I did not want the burger, and you clearly hear the cook say he made a mistake with the cheese. So if you have food allergies I would avoid this place. So I could not tell you about the food, but, the fries were hot.

The food and coffee were very good. I had the English muffin with bacon. I thought it was a really good deal at $6. It had a cool downtown vibe. I think I will stop by in the evening and have a beer.

I used to live down the block from this place. Great coffee shop in the morning and afternoon. A nice small cafe menu to choose breakfast from and have some good seasonal drinks. The restaurant side is great. The menu although small, has something for everyone. I would have dreams of their corn cakes drizzled with a southwest sauce. They are a side but for one they are a meal. Great service. Great bartenders who know the locals and are welcoming to newcomers. The owners (The Rose's) are a great family. They employ younger people to wait and serve because they want to teach the younger generation about the restaurant business and to get them good experience. The ambiance is industrial meets cozy. Well lit. Beautiful high ceilings and window seats to watch the train station. Go check them out before a Saint Paul Saints game!

The Lost Fox has a great atmosphere, and overall, the food and service were excellent. Our bartender was attentive and sociable, and most of the dishes we tried were well-executed. We ordered the Chicken Tinga fries, the BB Burger, and Chicken Wings. Everything was great with the exception of the wings. On their website, the picture makes them look really fantastic, but when ordered, that wasn't so at all. They were not broken down properly (they were served with the drumette, flat, and tip all intact), not crispy enough, and completely oversauced. All of these issues just ruined the dish . A little more attention to detail there would have made the experience perfect. That said, I'd still come back to try more of the menu, as everything else was really great.

The service is amazing accompanied by the food such as the wings, iced coffee, and French soda

One of my new favorite spots in Downtown St. Paul. The Fried Chicken Sando is excellent! I love that they have a full bar with 100% local beers. Looking forward to going back for a coffee before a trip to the Farmers Market.

Super cool caffe /coffee shop and a place to meet new people or old ,or just passing throw for some grub , the intricate new and old brought together in one place! Very spacious !! The staff were friendly and did not have food but I bet it's great here , I will be back to bring friends for sure cute cute quaint cafe!!

Stopped in for a Sunday Funday cocktail. We sat at the bar and enjoyed some great drinks. The bartender was pleasant, and I appreciated his willingness to make us any drink we wanted (on and off-menu). In addition to the French 75, the zesty Bloody Mary was fantastic! I can't wait to go back!

It's an improvement of whatever was here before. It's now a coffee, bar, and kitchen. They serve simple breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Good selection of coffee and tea. They do both iced and hot versions of tea. The sandwich was decent. I loved the ambiance here. There were several people here working quietly on their laptops. It also had art from a local artist on display.

Wanted a quick bite before baseball and found this little space. Walking in, the small patio is cute; they've done a good job of making a sidewalk in the city have a little charm. We decided to sit inside, since it was just a bit warm out. Got a few appetizers to share as our meal, and went with esquites corn fritters, jumbo wings, and pickled fried cauliflower. The corn fritters and cauliflower were excellent. The wings were ok. For my taste, I would have liked them a little crispy on the outside and a bit more sauce. Our server was very nice, but didn't check on us very often after our food came out. Food was also a little slow to come out, given the number of tables. They are also open for breakfast and lunch, do would love to come back to try some morning fare and some other things we saw on the menu.

I've been here both for coffee and food and I will say that the coffee shop has amazing vibes. Not the most earth-shattering coffee, but it is good. The restaurant side is good as well but the service is sub-par. Do not expect to be well attended to nor get anything quickly.

favorite spot in downtown St. Paul! good food, good drinks, and love thats it's a coffee shop, a restaurant and a bar all at once. great interior, a casual and welcoming atmosphere, and I love their elote chorizo corn cake entree.

If you don't know this place is here you would miss it But that part of its charm I suppose. It's nestled at the end of lowertown, Just blocks from the Saints stadium a few steps from the light rail. It's a cute, quaint if you will coffee shop/dive bar feel. I went in on a Sunday early evening had a tasty glass of wine, an amazingly delicious homemade triple-decker club sandwich and a surprisingly great cup of chicken chili soup (excellently and perfectly seasoned*definitely not Minnesota nice spiced IYKYK). The seating arrangement was plentiful for those busy nights but also perfectly cozy for a chilly Sunday for a little solitude in public. Last but not least the playlist was beyond perfect... A mix of late '80s early '90s rock/pop classics. All of that with a reasonable price-point and pleasant service. For being my first time here I was thoroughly impressed as it hit all of the marks that one would hope when they visit a new restaurant. I will definitely be back and would recommend. The only complaint is there is no parking and I sat myself and was basically ignored for at least 10inutes while the staff visited with a regular... however when she did come by she was very Sweet knowledgeable about the menu and paid close attention.

I went to Lost Fox for the first time last week before we went to Glow. It was nice walking distance to CHS field so it was a great option for that. Lost Fox was busy for a Friday night when we were there but our drinks took over 25 minutes to get to the table even for a beer/cider. This was not acceptable. Our food also took awhile to come out once we ordered. I ordered a gluten free lost Fox hamburger and it was good but I didn't eat the fries because they were from a shared fryer. I got the in vino veritas cocktail that was okay, I wouldn't get it again. At the end of the night we asked for 2 bills and they completely swapped all of our food and we were late for the event we were going to. The inside of the restaurant was well decorated although it was quite loud. Service was very slow. Parking is street or ramp parking nearby so plan accordingly.

Very disappointed with our dinner at Lost Fox. We went on a Friday night, it was fairly busy, and our service was terrible. Drinks took at least 20 minutes to come out, food took forever, and then some of our orders were wrong. I ordered the "I'll be your Huckleberry" drink which had great flavor and then the rice bowl with sweet soy glaze. My entree was okay, pretty bland though. When our waitress came to bring the bills, the receipts were jumbled and incorrect. I would not recommend Lost Fox especially if you have after dinner plans.

Ambience: it's a cool hidden gem in Saint Paul. The front is along the light rail, and you can access the back from the alleyway. When you walk in through the back, you notice a swankier feeling restarting area and bar. Up front is a coffee bar, with a water stand, and cafe style seating. Lots of people on their laptops when I went to catch up with friends on a Saturday. Food: I ordered the Little Piggie which comes with egg, tomato, ham and bacon (opted for extra bacon instead of ham), arugula, garlic Mayo, on your choice of white, wheat, or croissant. My only gripe is the the croissant wasn't warmed up. Otherwise, it was perfect. Drink: I got a salted caramel latte w oat milk. I was impressed by how many syrup flavors they have. They have a dark roast from Mpls and a light from St. Paul. Things you should know: - if you walk in through the back, check in at the front with the host - picky eaters can make modifications to meals - they close at 1 a.m.

Came in for a quick bite and cocktail before an event in the area. Lost Fox has a really cute ambiance and cozy vibe to it. They weren't really busy which was surprising on the weekend but I know they're also pretty knew and I'd heard about their coffee vs their dinner offerings. I had an old fashioned and house Lost Fox Burger with bacon added for my meal. The burger seemed a bit small but likely an appropriate serving size since I didn't feel overly full after consuming, but it was interesting that the bacon dominated. I got a bit of the garlic aioli that pulled through on what was otherwise a fine, but nothing surprising burger. I didn't get a ton of flavor that really stood out and based on the thickness of the patty relative the bun and bacon, it just seemed surprisingly lost. Nothing bad, just nothing to go tell anyone "you've got to try it". Fries were pretty standard as well. The old fashioned was made well and the server was super kind and attentive although it looked like she was covering the entire seating area. Maybe they recognized a slow night and sent the rest of the staff home? Overall a good experience, but sadly nothing memorable. Will come back to check out their am offerings though, since I've heard so much.

Just happened to stumble across Lost Fox! Did not disappoint at all! Will definitely be back.... SOON! Friends and I were looking for an espresso martini for an after dinner bev..... SO SO DELICIOUS (had 2)! We also tried the I'll be your huckleberry drink... don't skip on that either. The staff were very friendly and nice. Nice after dinner spot for some cocktails. Super cute place with great music playing and nice relaxing vibe.

Second round here. Pie and coffee even better than before. Be sure to stop if you go to the St P farmers market.

Very nice and cozy atmosphere to study reasonable prices but beware of multiple mice. We saw three mice while visiting. It's cute tho

Stopped in here before a saints game and it was a super cute place! I loved all the greenery and celestial vibes! The service here was fast and friendly. There was plenty of seating, even when google said it was "as busy as it gets" :) I like that you have the option of either getting waited on, or ordering from the cafe directly. The food was ok. I was excited for my sandwich based on the description on the menu, but it was slightly underwhelming. I think the dinner menu here looks better than brunch tho ‍

Im a breakfast sandwich guy and my wife is a pastry chef. I had a top 3 life time breakfast sandwich here in the B.B. bagel sandwich on asiago bagel. Outrageously good they have no right. And then on top of that the orange cranberry danish is a vision of wonder and deliciousness.

Low lighting ambiance, great tasting food and drinks to match. Great customer satisfaction and overall quality. It's why the lost fox is the best lost little place to be.

What a gem! I found the Lost Fox by chance, passing by the alley entrance from 5th street. I felt like it was a secret, until I realized the main entrance is just across the street from the Union Depot and Light Rail stop! Still, the service was friendly, the coffee was delicious and it is clearly a popular spot for the locals. Lots of folks working on laptops or having friendly chats. Some adorable pups were also making good company. I'm looking forward to having productive work days here again soon.

We tried Lost Fox this winter when we were looking for a place to get appetizers and drinks before dinner. The ambiance was generally good, and the food was okay but could have been better. FOOD: We tried the fried brussel sprouts, fall hummus & baba ganoush, and corn fritters. The brussel sprouts were definitely the highlight, and were perfectly crispy and tasty. The hummus and baba ganoush were a bit underseasoned for my taste, and the veggies/pretzels served along with it could have been more interesting. The corn fritters also could have been more seasoned, and arrived to our table a little cold. The happy hour beers were well-priced though! SERVICE: Our server was very nice and helpful; the service was a little slow but it was pretty busy and there seemed to only be one server at the time, so it was understandable. AMBIANCE: The interior was interesting and cozy, although there were purple lights that did not help the appearance of the food. PARKING: We found easy street parking nearby.
