The Victoria Park spot will close on Sunday, May 10, owner Elliot Wolf confirmed, following a stretch of rising costs and shifting dining patterns that made the space harder to sustain. Regulars have already begun plotting farewell visits to squeeze in one last oversized plate.<\/p>\n<p>Wolf shared the news on Instagram, writing, &#8220;After fifteen incredible years, I&#8217;ve made the difficult decision to close Foxy Brown,&#8221; according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.miaminewtimes.com\/food-drink\/beloved-fort-lauderdale-brunch-spot-to-close-after-15-years-40545417\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Miami New Times<\/a>. The outlet reports that the restaurant will close following Mother\u2019s Day dinner service on Sunday, May 10.<\/p>\n<p>Why Wolf Cited Rising Costs And Competition<\/p>\n<p>According to the Sun Sentinel, as relayed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.miaminewtimes.com\/food-drink\/beloved-fort-lauderdale-brunch-spot-to-close-after-15-years-40545417\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Miami New Times<\/a>, Wolf pointed to rising lease-renewal and insurance costs along with increased local competition as the primary reasons behind the decision. Those same pressures have forced a number of South Florida restaurants to reevaluate whether long-running neighborhood spots can stay put at current rents and insurance rates.<\/p>\n<p>Where Staff And The Brand Could Land<\/p>\n<p>Be Nice Restaurant Group, which owns Foxy Brown, also operates Coconuts, G&amp;B Oyster Bar, Top Hat Deli and Lunchroom. That lineup gives the company internal options for affected employees, and many staffers are expected to move to sister restaurants as the group reorganizes operations and absorbs team members into nearby kitchens.<\/p>\n<p>One Last Brunch<\/p>\n<p>The Foxy Brown\u2019s current address is 476 N. Federal Hwy in Victoria Park, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxybrownftl.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Foxy Brown\u2019s website<\/a> lists hours and contact details for guests planning final visits.
