The Fox and Crown — Restaurant in Rushcliffe

This has been a long-term haunt of mine, from when it was the Laughing Cavalier in the late 90's, to it's short stint as the Oliver Cromwell, through the many years it was superbly run by the Bartsch family as the Horse and Plough, until now where it is owned by Castle Rock. It's always my first pub of choice when looking for a pint of something decent in Bingham. Cosy in the winter and nice to sit outside in the summer in their new(ish) beer garden.

I emailed them earlier in the day for a menu and they responded within 30 minutes. When we arrived they were so helpful and attentive, making the experience much nicer. They even checked their ingredients of the tartar sauce to ensure it was gluten free (it is). She has fish and chips with a gf batter. I'm told it was wonderful. I had the Arnie burger, which was immense! So we had a great evening with fantastic food for our separate needs along with some lovely ciders! Highly recommended and we...
