Reservations are for food bookings only – all drinks are first come, first served.

Not trying too hard, not overly complicated, and EXACTLY what you are looking for; our menu is the fox's knees. We have got a great selection of Scottish beers on tap, and have recently created an extensive cocktail menu for you to sip on while you catch up with friends. From the kitchen, you can expect feel good pub dishes with a twist made from fresh, seasonal ingredients – we think yer granny would even approve!

Foxes might not be great at sports (it’s hard when you can’t even wear shoes) but that doesn’t stop us from watching all the big games! We have all Sky Sports & BT channels so can show everything from the Scottish Premiership & International Football to the Grand National and Wimbledon. Swing by, pull up a pew and catch all of the action.

    4 people had lunch, the food was plentiful and great quality, we all thoroughly enjoyed everything we had. Lovely and cosy in the upper section seated in a booth, very comfortable. Extremely friendly and efficient staff, lovely girl served us, gave recommendations which we went with. Overall a tip top experience thank you X

    Excellent food and service. We didn't realise the Calcutta Cup was on and although it was lovely to see everyone enjoying themselves it was very busy and noisy. Difficult to chat and have a relaxing meal. I'd definitely go back ,just not on a Saturday night, my mistake.
    The Smokin FoxResponded on 26 February 2025
    Thank you for fantastic feedback on food and service. We always strive for the best! Yes, you are absolutely right, Saturday night was ecstatic, thanks to Rugby games. We can't wait to welcome you back on a non sport day for chilled and relaxing atmosphere, keep an eye on our social media as we are about to launch Sunday Roast. Have a nice day, Team Fox :)

    It was very busy which is good. However we could not hear each other speak. Service was ok. Dealt with reasonably. Starters. Haggis bons bons lovely. Chicken wings. Lovely. Philly cheesesteak not so lovely. Dried out slices of meat on a slab of cheese not Philly. Tasteless macaroni on the side was lovely. Would I go back. Not quickly.

    Thanks for great feedback on our dishes Iain, indeed a very busy day for Six Nations and great atmosphere but we understand noisy Saturday is not everyone's cup of tea, make sure you visit us during the week for more relaxed vibes. I am sorry to hear couple of the dishes did not meet your expectations, please let us know next time as we would be more than happy to replace them. We are launching new menu next month and will review your feedback with chefs. Have a great day, Team Fox :)

    This was our 2nd visit to the Smokin' Fox & we were not disappointed. We had booked in especially for the chicken wings which are outstanding. Great range of beers ect to pair up with the wings. Staff on both visits have been very friendly with a good sense of humour and the service is quick.
    The Smokin FoxResponded on 18 February 2025
    Hi Keith, Delighted to hear you have joined us a few times at the Fox and enjoy your visits. Chicken wings of all types are a staff favorite and very popular down in bar area for snacks! Staff work hard but will be delighted to hear they work hard and have good sense of humour. See you again soon folks. Team Fox

    Was clearly a very busy night. Crowded inside, but they still managed to maintain such a great ambiance. We were greeted by very friendly and courteous staff and promptly seated. Our orders were brought out fairly quickly and the food was delicious! Enjoyed my time. Will definitely visit again
