Very good food. John is the owner chef who has made Fox & Barrel a signature statement. He is a skilled chef, uses quality ingredients, and a Marylander makes an effort to go local. In short, he is a foodie's chef 👨🍳 that has made a warm and welcoming spot.
His corn and crab chowder is to die for. It has layers of flavor, is well balanced, just right use of seasoning (not salty at all). His hush puppies were perfect and his homemade aioli dipping sauce has a warm flavor that compliments the hush puppy.
Fox & Barrel is an up and coming popular spot, so it can be busy however he does do take out.

Wow! We were looking for a breakfast place. Saw this on google. When I looked at the menu, thought it was typical farm/diner fare. Boy was I wrong. Chef John was wonderful, explaining the size of the meals and some of his specials. He made the sauce for my wife's salmon fresh, no re-warmed sauce for us. My sweet potato skillet was AMAZING. This was the start of a beautiful breakfast relationship for us.

Very cozy and quaint roadside cafe. The atmosphere is very laid back and country feeling while the food portions are quite large and tasty. Would highly recommend for those looking for a down home stop for breakfast or dinner. Will be back.

Sweet Potato Hash with Fried Egg
Amazing country roadside café in an unfortunately fast developing area. First clue that this was not going to be a greasy spoon type experience was the type of clientele already sitted. Then the menu mentions Avocado fries and other trendy fares.
The food was a little slow coming out (like in a real restaurant) but was excellent.
The "retired" mother/culinary graduate son team offers an unpretentious, family atmosphere with great food.
