   We had dear friends visiting, knew it would be a beautiful sunny day for a walk in the country, and the Fox was nearby to provide them with a delicious lunch. It exceeded our already high expectations. They have an ala carte which was incredibly good value too. Delicious food! Excellent service. Thank you.

   Booked The Fox in the hope of something elevated in terms of a local Sunday Roast but was badly disappointed. One measly slice of pork loin, three roast potatoes, some cabbage and a couple of carrots with some gravy was it. There was so much white space on my plate. The potatoes tasted like they’d been sitting under a heat lamp for an hour. The wine we ordered took an age to arrive. Very poor show. The cheeseboard and desserts were better, hence the two stars but the main event was an embarrassment to the establishment.

   The beef was perfectly cooked, and the Yorkshire pudding was the best I’ve ever had here, ie not overdone, just right! Service was excellent too, and my espresso martini was expertly made!

   Saturday night and we’re seated in the restaurant. Menu looks different to that advertised on the website but we go with it - until we see others being served burgers. Turns out there is a bar menu but unless you ask for it you’re only offered the (more expensive and quite restricted) a la carte. We mixed from both menus. Whipped Stilton starter was bland and didn’t taste of Stilton. Carpaccio was reported to be good. Bream main was bland but the pub choices of burgers and fish pie went down well, as did the pork loin. Service was good and we enjoyed the pre-dinner beers in the bar. All in all, would go back for the bar ambience and food, but probably not the restaurant experience.

   I received an email from the Fox informing me Pie night was 1st and 3rd Thursday each month. I booked a table for 4. When we arrived, there were no pies. It was beaujolais night. So we had fish pie. But please sort out your communications!

   Restaurant is lovely and food was good no issues there at all. Only problem I had was with the wait times between ordering, we was asked if we want deserts so we got the menus then was sat there 30 minutes with no one coming back over, especially with this being my partners birthday meal we felt let down as we did want a desert, but after that amount of time waiting we didn’t have time as we needed to be elsewhere. We were in the restaurant over 1 and a half hours and all we had was a main meal. Again the food is very good can’t complain, just won’t be back in a hurry and wouldn’t be going if I’m on a tight schedule.

    Ordered from the bar menu as the restaurant menu didn't inspire us. Enjoyed a very tasty gammon steak and the Fox Burger. The yoghurt parfait dessert was disappointing as it was semi frozen and had some lumps of gelatin. My friend's ice cream was delicious though. Service was attentive but not obtrusive. An enjoyable evening.
