The Fox is an award winning pub & fine dining restaurant with rooms located in picturesque Willian near Letchworth, North Hertfordshire. It has a great locals bar serving a wide selection of real ales and lagers, dog friendly.

Went with our 3 teens for my husbands birthday. Delicious food and great service. The ambiance was extra special as they were singing carols in the bar. Very pretty pub!

The Fox is an a la carte restaurant in the evenings. We didn’t realise and there wasn’t too much for my friend to eat. The waiting staff asked the manager if we could order off of the lunchtime menu, which she did. The food was delicious, especially the Hispi cabbage and the chocolate mousse dessert! It was busy but well staffed so service was adequate. The ambience was also lovely. Would thoroughly recommend

Table was ready and we arrived early. It was our first visit and we loved everything about it. The service was very good and nothing was too much for Charlie. And then we all had great tasty food

We had our Christmas work gathering at The Fox at Willian yesterday. The whole experience was great, and the food was exceptional. The waitress who looked after us was so friendly and accommodating and always had a smile on her face. We will definitely be returning. Thank you

Very good food and ambience on a visit for a Christmas meal, albeit quite pricey. Attentive service from staff.

Food was delicious as always! Sadly though, my niece had to make a makeshift veggie meal out of roast potatoes and veg as there were no vegetarian options on the kids menu. Service was ok, we ordered a side of cauliflower cheese that didn’t arrive but we weren’t too sad about that as the main was quite big. But we were brought 2 wrong puddings and had to wait a little bit for the correct order, which when it arrived was delicious!! Still a lovely pub and will be back of course!
