After years of working Downtown Indianapolis, Executive Chef/Owner Jake Burgess decided to come home and open an establishment that delivered the style of service and quality of food he had become accustomed to. FoxGardin is tucked away on quaint Main Street in Fortville.

Minutes to Geist, Fishers, Klipsch Music Center, and I-69, and only 25-30 from downtown Indy, FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a perfect spot to sneak away, while still being close to everything!

***FoxGardin Kitchen & Ale is a 21+ establishment. ***

This was my first time visiting FoxGardin and the food was delicious. I went for for dinner with work colleagues, and everyone at our table was raving about how much they enjoyed the food. Service was excellent - our server was friendly and very helpful; everything he recommended was delicious. One of my colleagues commented that this was the best meal he had had during the whole work trip. I know I look forward to returning the next time I am in the area.

This is one of my favorite spots right now. They had live music, Sass, so it was busier and louder than usual but we went specifically to see her. On normal days, the service is always amazing, but it was packed so I don’t blame them at all. Food is a bit expensive, but they always have great specials and even better drinks!
