The newest shop around the corner in Novato is Fox Pizza, opening at 529 Alameda del Prado, according to a liquor license. The new restaurant owners, Anna and Jeff Fox, are building out the space, aiming for a mid-2026 opening.
Fox Pizza started as a pop-up and catering business, serving sourdough pizza around the Bay Area. As a pop-up, Fox Pizza serves rotating seasonal pies, such as its rosemary potato pizza or mushrooms and miso cream. Its menu also offers salads and appetizers. Cups of signature ranch dressing are always available for purchase.
The restaurant concept will feature the same pies, salads and appetizers, with the addition of wines, local ciders and some non-alcoholic options.
The space Fox Pizza is building out formerly housed longtime tenant Dragon Cafe. According to a Facebook post from Dragon Cafe, the owners retired at the end of 2025. “We’re retiring tonight! Place your last orders while you can,” the post reads.
In an Instagram post from Fox Pizza, the couple writes, “The owners of Dragon Cafe have been there for 30 years, since they were our age. We feel so fortunate to have found a spot with such good energy and a history of family and community.”
Although they’re about to move into a brick-and-mortar space, Fox Pizza is still doing pop-up appearances in the months leading up to its opening, already scheduled to show up in HenHouse Brewing Company on a few Fridays from January to March, so pizza aficionados can get a taste ahead of their official opening.
