Description

At a bustling eatery, experiences varied widely among guests. While some praised the friendly service and extensive menu, noting memorable dishes like the Sunday roast and steak and ale pie, others were disappointed by long wait times and inconsistently prepared meals. Complaints about the lack of heating and inadequate facilities for families with young children marred some visits. Despite the occasional setback, many diners appreciated the warm atmosphere and delicious food, encouraging return visits. Overall, the restaurant strikes a balance between charm and challenges, making it a mixed bag that leaves guests intrigued yet cautious about their next dining experience.

Reserved table at 1.30pm. Food took 45 mins to arrive. Told the pie was chicken. When it finally arrived it was steak. Bit burnt on top. Liver and bacon dish: liver was tough. Fried mushrooms were cold inside. Ordered three hot drinks. Waited ages. Only two arrived. Clearly short staffed especially in kitchen and/or took too many bookings. Pub was cold. No heating on, just a fire nowhere near our table which wasn't enough on a chilly day. Miserable experience.

Just happened to find this place by chance on the way to Chichester. Lovely friendly staff and great food. If I lived near I would definitely be going back for more

Great to be back at The Fox. Nice warm woodburners, tasty and delicious food which arrived in a reasonable time despite being massively busy. Pies were to die for as were the mushrooms yum yum

We have just had Christmas lunch and we were impressed by the food and the service. This is probably the 4th year we have been here at Christmas and intend to book again next year. Thanks to all at the Fox!

We came as a family group for Sunday lunch. Food was well done and roasts came out quickly. We were in at 12pm opening and it quickly filled up. One big point for us though was the lack of baby changing facilities. This meant that we had to cut our meal short to be able to take our 1 year old home to be able to change him. Ultimately, I wouldn’t recommend to families with young children and we will not be returning.
