It took me a minute to find the place—GPS led me behind all the stores. Don’t do that! Once I figured it out, I realized it had been hiding in plain sight. The whole area actually looked like it had gotten a refresh since the last time I’d been around. There’s a massive shared parking lot, and finding a spot was no problem. Once we parked, we followed the signs, walked through a courtyard, and found the entrance. Inside, a sign pointed us to the left, where we walked up to the counter and were greeted with a warm welcome. We grabbed a menu and quickly reviewed it. They don’t offer flights, so we each ordered a couple of half pours. I went with a hazy and an IPA, while Wifey chose a watermelon pilsner and a lager. We placed our food order at the same counter—Wifey went with lemon pepper wings and mac and cheese. I ordered six spicy wings and a side of coleslaw. They provided an order number stand, we grabbed our beers and headed outside to a high-top table made from a barrel. The food came out surprisingly fast—they brought our trays right to the table. Everything looked great, and once we started digging in, the flavors backed it up. My wings had just the right amount of heat, and the coleslaw was a solid pairing. Wifey really enjoyed her wings too, though she said the mac and cheese could’ve used a little more flavor. Before leaving, we grabbed a couple more half pours. Wifey liked the watermelon pilsner so much, we ended up taking home a six-pack. It’s pretty much a self-serve setup once your food arrives—you bus your own table, grab your own wet wipes and water, that kind of thing. It’s a casual setup, so no big deal there. Out in the courtyard patio area, families and kids were everywhere—enjoying the “green” space, playing games and hanging out. I definitely noticed a diverse crowd—younger, older, from all backgrounds—everyone just enjoying the day. It truly felt like a space where all are welcome. Overall, it was a great first experience at this Fox Bros./Wild Heaven combo. We’ll definitely be back. 4.5 Rating
