Fox & Chance opened in 2021 in the heart of Birmingham and has piqued the interest of cocktail lovers alike from the city and beyond.
The website says ‘A trip to Fox & Chance will always provide a warm welcome and top-notch service. We aspire to create an atmosphere as welcoming as your local pub, the ideal place to enjoy great music whilst tasting your way through our menu. We pride ourselves on our ability to create the perfect guest experience for all who come through our doors.’
To honour the launch of their new menu they’ve shared their More Than Venice recipe.
Birmingham’s canals have been central to the city for hundreds of years. For many years they were one of the main ways to bring in goods from across the country and world. The drinks brings together two ingredients we found listed on an old shipping manifest. One from afar, one from a lot closer. Coffee and Cherry.
The name is an ode the popular Brummie phrase/weird brag of the city having more canals than Venice.
