The Fox Hotel | Pub Collingwood — Restaurant in Melbourne

October 2023. This is a bloody good pub. The service is always friendly and welcoming.

They have a good range of tap beers and bottled beers.

Now the food is fantastic. I've eaten there a few times now, and I wish I lived closer, lol.

On my last visit in October 2023, I had a Sunday roast beef 2 course special. This was so good. Everything was cooked to perfection. It was like an English roast.

My partner had a vegetarian cottage pie w salad, n chips, and this was really good too, but I think my meal was a winner, haha.

I was so full, but we had a dessert to share. Ice cream and waffle. How retro.

This was absolutely delicious, a great homemade waffle, a not too sweet caramel sauce, and a creamy vanilla ice cream! A heavenly dessert. I eventually rolled out of there, so full, but for a $30 two course meal, this place is definitely worth travelling for!!

I'll be back 😊

This is a great pub. The food is excellent and the service is good. They sell over 100 beers, so if you like beer ... it amber heaven lol.

My hot doggie was delicious w a cransky. The hot chips were fresh and crunchy.

The Beef n Guiness pie was absolutely amazing!! Served w onion rings n mash n gravy. W chunky pieces of meat n a great flavour, this was a winner. It's definitelyy...

Rang The Fox Hotel to let the manager know that I believe the tomato sauce was off last night when I had dined as it tasted so so bitter. I thought maybe I was being paranoid so continued eating it, but I wasn't and ended up vomiting for around 3 hours with bad cramps and had to take half the day off work. She explained they do everyday checks of the sauce to make sure they are ok but this bottle was nearly completely empty and wasn't fine. She offered me a free drink when I next came, saying she would give me something when I came in. Considering the extent of how sick I was didn't really feel very fair at all. I explained I also live quite far away from the hotel, I would have thought the least they could do was offer to refund me but unfortunately not. I also was charged $29 total for the barramundi which is $22 and a soft drink (which shouldn't be $7 but I let it go at the time thinking it didn't sound right rather than going back over a few bucks) but the experience is disappointing. I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt and contact them firstly about the issue rather than posting negative feedback but this was a real let down. As a manager myself, if I encountered a situation like this I would definitely not be just offering the customer a drink, it was...

The Fox Hotel is a great place to catch up with mates. Upon arrival, you'll find a friendly bar complete with a billiard table and space to mingle. Proceeding through the bar doors you enter the dancefloor - with the stage to your left, rear access to the bar on your right. If you head across the dancefloor you'll find some cosy dining/lounge areas. Past that, is the vibrant courtyard, plus table tennis room. Up the stairs awaits a roomy patio with tables and chairs to take a load off. And to top it off, there's a quiet upstairs room, to chill, drink and eat. Fox Hotel has this lovely ambiance throughout. And it's not too hard to strike up conversation with others attending this warm, charming establishment. Located a short distance past the Eastern Freeway, it's conveniently located if driving in. Otherwise, there's the Smith St or Brunswick St...
