The story
On Einestraat in Oudenaarde, The FOX keeps things straightforward: good vibes, sharing plates, and a drinks list built around funky natural wines, cocktails, and craft beers. The energy is casual and social, with counter dining that puts you close to the action. Walk in on Tuesday through Friday evenings (18:00–23:00) for a la carte sharing, or gather a group of six or more to book a fixed menu at €59 per person.
The kitchen works with the seasons, turning out dishes meant to be passed around the table. That seasonal approach – fresh, uncomplicated, ingredient-led – is what earned The FOX its Michelin Bib Gourmand for 2026, a nod to good quality cooking at a fair price. The sharing format keeps things relaxed, letting you explore a few plates over a glass of something unfiltered or a well-shaken cocktail.
Saturdays are reserved for private events (from 20 guests), giving the space a flexible, community-focused feel. Whether you drop in solo for a drink at the counter or bring a crowd for the fixed menu, The FOX delivers a genuinely warm, unfussy dining experience that stays true to its love of funky wines and seasonal food.
