I went to The Fox for lunch today and from start to finish it was a great experience!
Food - I went for a lamb roast and everything was great, the meat was moist, the veg just had a bite, the yorkie was crispy and the cauliflower cheese was good and cheesy. The roast potatoes were a little light for my taste but each to their own. They offer a range of foods beyond a roast, I've had their steaks before and they were brilliant.
Service - The staff are great! I booked a table in advance but when I got there it was in the raised seating area (bright and full of larger tables) I asked if it was possible to move to a quieter table and they moved things around. They were super nice about it despite it being busy. Food came out in well under 10 minutes which, given the quality of the food, I found very impressive.
Atmosphere - The Fox is a pub of two halves, the lower section of the pub which wraps around the bar is warm, cozy and inviting, there are two fire places, one lite (book well in advance for a table) and one as photoed. The seating in this section is comfortable and embracing, perfect for a date or lunch/dinner with a small group. The other section is a raised seating area which is lighter and airier. It's a lot less cozy but is well suited for larger groups or louder gatherings (sounds carry a lot up there but muffles quickly as you move from the area)
It's a lovely pub and well...

Went for a lovely meal here with my girlfriend a few weeks back.
We got a whole rack of ribs as one main and the beef shorts ribs as a second and split them down the middle.
Wow. Some of the best ribs I’ve ever eaten. The meat was tender and fell off the bone, the fries were sensational, the coleslaw was the nicest I’ve ever tasted and the corn was cooked to perfection.
We also had a side of onion rings , which were delicious , super crispy batter and the bbq sauce which came with them paired nicely with the beef short rib as well.
Very reasonably priced for the quality and the amount of food you get. Neither of us managed to finish our food so dinner for the evening was sorted.
Great selection of pints on tap. Staff were lovely and service was great and the location itself is perfect for an afternoon in the sun.
Only suggestion I would offer would be table service, whether that be having a QR code you could scan to order drinks to your table or someone coming around the beer garden. Saying that, the few times I went up to get a beer did help give me a little breather in between trying to get through the mountain of ribs provided!
Highly recommend and would happily...

A fantastic atmosphere here at the Fox.
The waiting staff were friendly.
Now down to the food!
We went for a Pizza with pulled pork, which was deliciously crispy and soft. The flavours were great!and I highly recommend a pizza!
Now for the main event, the BBQ smoking board!
The chicken thighs were great, a nice smokiness to them, with the BBQ sweetness expected!
The Beef ribs were well seasoned, and absolutely tender! One of the beef ribs was slightly over cooked but the taste was fantastic.
The pork ribs had a great flavour, and we're extremely tender! I wonder if these were cooked in a slow cooker rather than a smoker?
The chilli was a standard tasty chilli, as for the coleslaw.
The corn was a disaster, my assumption was that it was boiled within an inch of its life, and then slapped on a grill to have some grill marks on them. This is especially a shame as something as simple as corn could let a meal down!
You have excellent meats cooked well this would be a 10/10 if there is an adjustment for some of the basic areas!
In all a fantastic meal, at a fantastic location thank you and we will return to try...
