Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the service, with one server praised again and again as helpful, efficient and enthusiastic, and others described as polite, welcoming and friendly. The sirloin is the dish named most, called delicious by two diners, while one also praised a kebab pizza and another a fish dish. Reviewers add that dough ball advice from a server was very good, and several call the food lovely, quick to arrive and good value even without a voucher. A family-friendly side comes through in the outdoor seating, the play area for young children and the treats given to a dog. One group with a deaf member valued a staff member who could sign a little. The main complaint is one diner's sirloin that was not very hot, served on a cold plate, and the same reviewer waited about 40 minutes for food and wished waiting times had been mentioned when ordering drinks. Several celebrating birthdays and an anniversary note a complimentary Prosecco for two guests.

“You’ll get a warm welcome, a good pint, and great value for money pub food at The Fox near Bristol. We’re a bright and modern family-friendly pub with homely touches: like traditional fireplaces piled high with logs.

Pub classics, burgers, grills, and sharers are always on the menu, and we do killer desserts that will make you give in to temptation without a moment’s hesitation. Grab a spot on the terrace or relax in the beer garden over a drink or two while the kids burn off some energy in the children’s play area. There’s a big range of drinks at the bar.
