A welcoming community in Fox Park
Situated just 3 miles from downtown Saint Louis is the charming residential enclave called Fox Park. “Fox Park is one of the older neighborhoods in Saint Louis with large, three-story brick homes. Throughout the early 1900s, it was where most wealthy residents lived. Although it’s in South City, it has grown in popularity over the past 20 years due to its eclectic architecture and popular restaurants,” says Beth Dunlap, a long-term resident of the community. Thanks to its historic homes, upscale restaurants, friendly neighborhood association and community gardens, “Fox Park has become one of the most desired neighborhoods in town for those looking to settle down,” Dunlap says.
The Fox Park neighborhood is a vibrant place to live.

Dinner dates at Little Fox
Neighbors may find themselves driving for quick grocery trips to nearby Barnett’s Market for essential items or Save-A-Lot for larger hauls. However, even the most avid home chef needs a night off, and on those days, locals should take advantage of the delicious restaurants just around the corner. The most notable restaurant in the neighborhood is Little Fox, a trendy spot with a seasonal menu and craft cocktails. “Little Fox is by far one of the most popular restaurants around town,” Dunlap says. Lona’s Lil Eats is a vegan-friendly Asian-fusion restaurant that draws crowds from all over the city. Coffeestamp is the go-to spot for a morning cold brew and bagel, while Keypers Piano Bar is full of patrons enjoying live music every Thursday.
