Inclusive Dining, Elevated Wine
Foxcroft Wine Co. stands out not only for its carefully curated wine list but also for its commitment to accommodating all types of diners, including those with dietary restrictions. The restaurant offers specialized menus for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and allergy-conscious guests, ensuring everyone can enjoy a memorable dining experience. This attention to detail and dedication to hospitality reflect the restaurant’s philosophy that great food and wine should be accessible to all.
Menus With Everyone in Mind
At the core of Foxcroft Wine Co.’s appeal is its diverse and thoughtfully crafted menu that showcases both comfort and creativity. The restaurant’s cheese and charcuterie boards have become local favorites, featuring artisanal meats and cheeses complemented by house-made jam, mustard, pickles, and other accompaniments. These shareable starters set the tone for a social dining experience, encouraging conversation and connection over exceptional food and wine pairings.
Beyond its small plates, Foxcroft enhances casual dining with house-made pastas that highlight seasonal ingredients and expert technique. Dishes like rigatoni with house-made pork sausage in tomato cream sauce and mushroom conchigliette with parmesan cream showcase the kitchen’s commitment to quality and flavor.
For those seeking heartier fare, premium entrees including a perfectly grilled organic half chicken, roasted salmon with seasonal vegetables, and a classic New York strip steak with house-cut fries provide sophisticated options while maintaining the restaurant’s approachable ethos.
Seasonal Dishes, House-Made Pastas
The driving force behind Foxcroft Wine Co.’s success in Greenville is General Manager Ivy Stokes, whose journey with the company began in 2016. Starting as a server, Stokes quickly demonstrated her exceptional industry knowledge and sense of hospitality, working her way up through the ranks to her current leadership position. When the opportunity arose to open a Greenville location, she eagerly embraced the new challenge, bringing her expertise and vision to the expanding brand.
Stokes’ commitment to creating an inviting atmosphere extends beyond her professional responsibilities. Known for her warm personality and genuine passion for hospitality, she embodies the spirit that defines Foxcroft Wine Co.
