After five years in business, popular Milwaukee food truck Foxfire is closing up shop. R.I.P. that incredible chicken sandwich.

“This is our fifth, and we have decided, final season,” owners Bryan Phillips and Maggie Reid posted to social media on Sunday. The couple say they are selling their truck, which has most recently found a home at Zócalo Food Park in Walker’s Point.

Foxfire also operated a pop-up kitchen at Hawthorne Coffee Roasters.

Here’s the full goodbye message:

Every year near the end of November, we announce that the truck is going into “hibernation” as we deem our truck season over. This year is a little different…

This is our fifth, and we have decided, final season.

It seems a little bittersweet, but we have goals outside of the food industry in our horizon. For one, Mags is starting a graduate program in the School of Public Health at UWM in January! If this seems sudden, we are sorry!!

Owning and operating a food truck has been a wild ride for us, and while there’s probably a few things we may have changed looking back, there are countless others that we absolutely would not.

Lastly, thank you to so many out there who have been a part of this journey with us in one way or another!!! There are so many of you that it warrants a separate post!

Foxfire’s final day of business at Zócalo will be November 28. The food truck’s remaining schedule is as follows:

11/14: 11 a.m. – 3 p.m.

11/17-18: 11 a.m. – 2 p.m., 5-8 p.m.

11/19-20: 11 a.m. – 8 p.m.

11/21: 11 a.m. – 3 p.m.

11/26: 11 a.m. – 9 p.m.

11/27: 11 a.m. – 9 p.m.

11/28: “LAST DAY! 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. or we run out of food.”
