In the interest of full disclosure I do have to let everyone know that I might be a biased source for this review since I might be known to briefly socialize on occasion with the owners, Mike & Chuck. Mike is a staple of the bar scene and Chuck is a staple of the food scene. They came together last year to open this sick ass bar,
The Red Fox. They both work harder than any other bar owners or managers I have ever come across and it shows. In any case, if I hated the place I would tell them that and more importantly, I would tell you. The situation (that word will never be the same after Jersey Shore) is that this place is totally fucking rock star. Let's check it out:
The Red Fox is real small, tucked in the back corner of a produce store, and about 50 feet from the sidewalk. Excellent for bringing in new business. When you are driving down Albina just look for this mural here and it is in that building. That is the best way to actually find this place. The good thing is that few people know about it so it is filled with neighborhood regulars and service industry people. Where do you think the kids at the
Florida Room drink?
This bar only has three taps but who gives a fuck (One is
DM Hop Lava)? This place is about neighborhood, urbane discussion (i.e. fart jokes), and some pretty damn good food. The sonoran dog is the bomb. If you don't know what it is you better ask somebody. The gumbo is also amazing. They also use a lot of local produce from the produce store in the same building, sustainable meats, and all that bullshit. I love this place and you should too. Patronize it.

Did Zeus throw down a mighty lightning bolt and with his electric force and power create such a bar called The Red Fox?
PS. That place looks pretty pimp
You hit it on the nose.
It is super pimp. I think that huge mirror thing you see came from the basement of owner Mike's grandfather's basement bar.
