Golden Fox Family Restaurant

Behold the majesty

The Golden Fox is in the Beechwood neighborhood, about 0.8 miles southward of Donuts Delite (a.k.a the breakfast epicenter, a.a.k.a the breakficenter). According to the venerable RocWiki, Golden Fox “was founded in 1963 by 20-year-old George Kasandrinos, a recent immigrant from Greece. Today, the Kasandrinos family also owns and operates T’s Times Square Cafe, which sells food prepared at Golden Fox. They also once operated a small diner named Little Fox Cafe.”

Bo ordered blueberry pancakes and two scrambled eggs. He noted that, as per the menu, there were innumerable (actually, numerable, maybe like 12?) options for pancakes, including rainbow sprinkles. Dave recommended the rainbow sprinkles. Bo thought that the rainbow sprinkles would be too bold. So he got blueberry.

Dave ordered eggs and English muffin. He asked if they could do peppers and onions in the breakfast potatoes. They could. “When they can, I do,” he indicated. Greg ordered the veggie benedict. He also ordered a water, but it was waylaid by pirates.

The Veggie Benedict.
Behold the blueberries

Bo’s blueberry blueberries had some pancake attached to them, too. The contraband real maple syrup made them delicious.

The veggie benedict was very good. Greg didn’t care for the mushrooms, but they would’ve tasted good if you’re into that sort of thing. So he guesses it’s a “buyer beware” sort of situation. Hot sauce would have saucened the situation (the saucuation), but it’s his own fault for not asking for any. His English Muffin was well-constructed: crispy on the outside but nice and MOIST underneath the egg.

Though Bo not-so-silently judged Dave for getting the barebone choice of eggs, hash browns, and toast, Dave silently countered that he made the right decision. And he did. It was everything one needs in a breakfast, absent anything over the top. The English muffin had a considerably bigger diameter than normal, and the copious amount of butter was a nod to Wisconsin’s Butter Burger, sans burger. The potatoes were good as served, but Dave eventually caved in and added salt and pepper (which came out exceptionally fast from their respective shakers).

You pay at the counter on your way out, near the stuffed fox. There’s a pie case. Or a fruit case. Anyway, it’s a case with stuff in it. And a case next to the case holds Monster energy drinks, in case you’re that type of person.


Don’t Miss: If you’re a pancake person, try the cranberry pancakes. Or the rainbow jimmies pancakes. Or some other weird pancakes!

Pro Tip: Peppers and onions in the potatoes, oh my. (And ask for Red Hot, if you’re that kind of person).

Pro-Pro Tip: If you’re feeling Westernly, go to the bathroom for a saloon style escape.
