Great pub just needs more people to come to improve the atmosphere as is a large pub and people get lost in it. Fine if you want to bar hang. Beer selections are good and staff are great.

What a wonderful little pub. Cracking Mexican food and a bewilderingly good selection of both cask and keg beers. Had a taster of the carrot cake ale (surreal) and the Pride-friendly 'bubblegum rainbow unicorn sparkle' that was blue and evoked childhood raspberry Slush puppies 🤷🏻‍♂️🤔 Bar staff super friendly, particularly when we ordered Tuaca (being out-of-towner Brightonians, it's a regular tipple). Would highly recommend and will head back the next time I'm up in Newark.

It's been a well overdue visit to Holy Moly@ The Fox and Crown. Had a nice pint of IPA and a cider to help the fantastic pizza go down. Loved the base, and the pepperoni was quantity. We had a side dish of Jalapeños poppers which rounded the meal off. The next visit is to try the burritos 🌯.

Called in for a cheeky pint while out shopping yesterday. Great selection of real ales, I had the Elsie Mo - obviously well kept beer, tasted great. Also tried half a pint of strong cask stout called "Snowball" which was excellent. My wife isn't as refined as I am so she wanted a prosecco, which they also stock - bonus. Got peckish while I was there and decided to try some of the Mexican street food. Really glad I did! I had the Chicken Pastor Tacos, which I ordered as "Spicy". Order arrived - 3 good size tacos with the chicken filling and a garnish of guacamole and salsa. Absolutely delicious , glad I didn't have the extra spicy as they were more than hot enough for my taste, (and I do like spicy food), so take on the extra spicy at your own risk. Overall: Friendly, knowledgeable service in a nice old fashioned traditional pub. Very well kept ales and an excellent selection. Food was top notch, could have been a tad warmer (temperature wise), but soooo tasty I just kept on eating. It's worth going just for the beers if you're a real ale fan, (and they have prosecco to keep everyone happy ). But the great mexican food is the icing on the cake, highly recommend you give it a try - we will definitely be back.

Mexican food was well nice and very reasonable, beer was excellent and the service and staff were very good. Atmosphere wasn't great but it was 5pm on a Monday so can't blame them for that! This was the last of three work visits to Newark and I'm very annoyed that we went to other pubs/restaurants for food on the first two, this place was way better. Would definitely recommend. Will be back if I'm ever in Newark again

I recently visited this place to celebrate a birthday. Initially, I felt like it was very stuffy and there was no air to breathe, but I got used to it with time. Air-conditioning is missing tho. They have a great selection of beers, which is beneficial. Very clean toilets, however very cold. Felt like in the fridge. I would lower the music, otherwise, everyone has to shout to hear. Very friendly staff. Generally, I enjoyed my time out

Staying in the area for a week and always like to try the local village pub. This one has to be one of the best, especially for food. Had lunch on Saturday absolutely amazing pork belly tapas with fries plus mac n cheese and went back the same evening for specialty burger plus a grilled garlic chicken all things worthy of a 10 out of 10 some of the best food ever tasted. Add to that very reasonable prices lovely staff friendly locals and impeccably clean toilets. Wish this pub was in our home town

Booked a Saturday night slot, car park very busy, managed the last space! Pleasant lounge bar area before the meal. Bar food served as well, looked decent fayre. Our table in the restaurant was ready on time and a bonus, we were in the “parlour,” best area if you like quiet. Quick service, excellent new Autumn menu, cod croquettes great starter, the salmon fillet excellent, partner enjoyed the chicken breast. Overall pleasant experience, will be returning soon.

Stayed here overnight after going to the nearby Race course Really nice place with its history and clocks! Friendly staff and a very efficient waitress at breakfast. Bed wasn’t the most comfortable but only stayed for one night, otherwise would have requested another room. To be fair we were given that option upon our arrival. One other downside was that the neighbouring room complained about the noise of our TV, which wasn’t actually that loud. The adjoining walls are clearly paper thin. All in all we would use the place again if needed.

A first class meal, without blaring music, you could really relax and enjoy the conversation . We both chose the steak and it was as good as any I have ever eaten.
