Fox & Crown in Ashfield

What a flaming grill best in the area. all the staff are lovely Ashley is amazing gave us free pool tokens BOGOF burgers on Thursday. The two for £7 is one of the best deals going

Drinks after work- lots of choice of beverages, plenty of room and a good atmosphere. Food smelled delish, good service and plenty of parking.

Called in on way back from shopping. Never been before but was a lovely pub. Just putting Dec's up for Halloween. Staff were friendly, service was good and food was lovely wasn't too many in but was still early for a Saturday.

Great food will definitely be returning!!

Came for Sunday dinners yesterday was great value. Hot & tasty reasonable portion size for the price

Rack of ribs was lush & great staff always friendly and helpful as always

myself and the wife had the gammon and it was fantastic. Would recommend it to anyone

My daughter in law and myself hasflat bread, it was disgusting no dressing or salad, sent them back only to have a tiny portion of tomato sprinkled on them, my husband's scampi was no bigger than a starter, we spent just under £100 last night and it wasn't worth it, we've spent hundreds of pounds over the years, recommend to everyone how good it is, I shall not be doing it again.

I've eaten there good food and value for money

Nice, reliable, cheap and cheerful food

Good staff ,lovely food.called in for food twice in 2 days

Space, cleanliness, great staff, great food

Nice staff polite and welcoming food average

Had hunters chicken skillet, mmm Was lovely can highly recommend it.

Really nice place Fox and Crown, Me and my daughter popped in for a quick drink in the summer and it was a cosy Atmosphere.

Came here for tea tonight, staff are pleasant enough and coped with the amount of customers, which is a huge improvement to my last visit. Sadly the food was naff, my boneless chicken was dry as anything. Partner ordered a mix grill, came with no onion rings, steak was ordered rare and was probably closer to well done, meaning he didn’t actually eat it. No check back done and when we did find a waitress and tell her all she did was apologise and didn’t do anything to rectify it. I work in hospitality so I know that this is bad service! Photo attached of my partners “rare” steak 👎

We go to the quiz night on a Tuesday, it's always entertaining,the food is excellent,I had gammon it was cooked to perfection definitely recommend a visit any time

Amazing place, gave us £1.50 for a pool game, amazing management. Great food, great atmosphere.

Food was amazing like always, atmosphere was astonishing, and the service was amazing too. 100% recommend coming here for quality time!

Large venue with plenty of seating inside and out. We opted for the burgers, which didn't disappoint. Great quality burger cooked to perfection. It's definitely worth a visit.

Great service, Great staff & Great food for value!!

Nice meal, reasonably priced and came quickly using the app.

great food and great staff. would recommend to friends and family

amazing pub with a great team. keep up the good work

Great food, cheap drinks and lovely staff, quiz is awesome fun to do with friends, lovely setting, woukd definitely reccomend

Great quiz, great food, all round cracking pub

This is a great place for food, amazing staff and amazing atmosphere. Would 100% recommend. Place is so clean and have relaxing music

Had a breakfast it was dry no taste toast must have been 2 days old very hard

Absolutely class pub , would highly recommend

We popped in to the fox on Friday for lunch and was greeted by the friendly waiting staff. The menu is varied to satisfy even the pickiest of appetites, we were also recommended side dishes to go with our meals when ordering at the bar. Food was served promptly and enjoyed by all.

Place has gone downhill it seemed grubby and dirty

Food portions were small for the price and some of the food was very dry

Nearly everything we tried to order they didn't have. We had a 3 Yr old with us who we ordered of the kids menu for her. They brought our starter but not hers by the time they made her starter, the tricky business of a couple of carrot and cucumber sticks 🙄we had finished our starters.

Amazing pub with some amazing staff. Can’t fault them at all

I came in with my family for food. We were greeted very nicely and the food was on time and very fresh! I come here often and it is my favourite place to come, both with my family and mates.

Food looked nothing like picture on menu... Steer clear of the flatbreads. When I asked the server if that was I'm fact what I ordered they simply said yes. Not bothered at all!! No-one asked if we needed anything else and never came back to check everything was OK. They never even cleared the table

Lovely place, good food, great prices , superb deals

Good selection of beers and other drinks. Meal typical pub choice, steak was cooked as requested, nice chips 😀

The food and beers where excellent

Amazing pub. Run by the amazing Ashley and his team. Visit every week for my lunch and a few Newcastle browns.

We came on the 28th of June for my husbands birthday in total we ordered 11 meals..all were lovely piping hot and service was great probably the nicest it's been in a while..thank you

The Fox and Crown is the best place to eat, the staff are friendly and the food is totally amazing.

Only stopped for a drink but staff were very friendly, it was sunny and outside very popular

Very good beer. Food is awesome. Service is good but theres never enough staff on the bar. Cant fault the staff though. They do their best

Came in tonight for a birthday meal with friends and family today, the young blonde lady who served us was brilliant , think her name was hetty, service was fantastic and the food was brilliant too, ill definitely be coming again and be recommending

Great friendly service & BBQ meat platter was incredible 🍗 sticky toffee pudding cheesecake 😋

Great meal great atmosphere friendly staff

I have not been to the Fox & Crown for a fair few years now but decided to nip in today for lunch. The food was great, and the service was fab. I had the XL mixes grill, and it came out sizzlung on a hotplate, and all the meat was cooked to perfection. Sides were chips, onion rings, and peas. My wife had the chicken combo meal and opted for the grilled chicken skewer, southern fried skewer with tata tots, colslaw, and chilli dip. This was all washed down with a couple of Peroni's. Decor is a little tired and could probably do with a bit of a refresh but still clean. Will be back soon .

Dropped in for an early dinner on Friday food was lovely and didn't have to wait long before our food arrived. A lovely, friendly pub very spacious with plenty of natural light. Staff were very patient and understanding as I struggle with communication. Highly recommended will definitely be returning in the near future.

Great pub smashing meals and menus will Defoe go there again . Fab prices too. Empty plate tells it all .

The fox and crown is a great pub and the atmosphere is always good however , I went with my son and we both had steak and to be honest it was dreadful. The steaks didn't taste of anything, I think it was a cheap meat and the brownies I had for afters we're freezing like they just come out of the fridge. If you're going for a drink then this is a pub to go to put the food is not up to scratch.

A pleasant pub. What you see is what you get. Only complaint is a couple of the bar staff can be a tad slack. Aside from that, food was spot on, food was hot and reasonable.

Food ok run of the mill. The whole pub needs a good makeover a bit scruffy looking

Went for my grandsons 16th birthday could not fault it

Took my daughter & son in law here on Saturday night to celebrate their wedding anniversary, my son in law & I ordered the sirloin steak & it was awful the steak was very tough to cut & very chewy, I was so disappointed because up until then we had always enjoyed the steaks there, don't know if they've changed their meat suppliers or what but it was bad, everything else was lovely, so disappointed !!!!!

4 adults we have spent well over £200 tonight! Starting with positive point, very fast serving! Very disappointed we were unable to order any deserts at 21.30. we have been told by the staff that the kitchen closes at 21.00 on a Saturday night?!? Very, very odd.... I am shocked... we were not even able to finish our meals and drinks by 21.00... when i expressed my disappointment, the staff just shrugged their shoulders like they didn't care, like is not their problem... Staff looked tired and had no engagement with the guests Food quality overall is on a decline Definitely going to spend money at a different place next Saturday

Fairly empty when we were there but didn't mind that. Staff very friendly. Because we had a dog with us we had to sit in the bar area. Fair enough we thought, but this turned out to be a couple of picnic- style tables near the pool table. The covers on the benches at the tables were quite tatty and could do with re- covering. However, we really enjoyed the food and would go back again for that reason alone.

This has been the place that myself and my family have been to for lunch and dinner numerous of times over a few years now. However, we have found it very disappointing today when we went out for food. The food quality has got worse and the prices have risen, to say the least the food that we had ordered wasn’t worth the money. Ordered side of onion rings which was bland and compared to previous times ordered they tasted frozen and not delicious at all. The portions size have also been reduced which don’t match the price or description did not fill us up unfortunately. We also ordered a new item which was the rib rack and that was an utter disappointment definitely not worth £17, the ribs were just bones with little meat on it and the presentation wasn’t great either, chips were undercooked overall we was left disappointed with our dining experience. The staff were however lovely and provided great service. But unfortunately being a diner here for past few years the menu has gone downhill and so has the food and its quality. Hoping for improvement in the future but for meantime left unsatisfied and not eager to return in the future.

Firstly I'd like to say the bar staff were lovely . On to the food , the wings in a mess tin ..just scrappy looking tbh..and also a side plate would have been nice , not something that should need requesting . The mixed grill my partner ordered medium rare ..was well done , not a bit of pink to be seen . The onion rings were below par too . My millionaire burger was tasty but the way the food is presented leaves a lot to be desired. There was all I can describe as the runt remains of the edge of a raw red onion on the side of my plate . Not actually sure why it was there. As for the messy tables , that statement speaks for itself . Not cleared off from previous diners even after our starters were delivered . Not the worst food by any means but a rating includes the surroundings and service too which were below average.

Great service, lovely atmosphere, amazing food.

Steak was terrible couldn’t even cut thru it was just fat. I had chicken strips instead girl was helpful that served she could see it was just fat

Went in for lunch today. First impression- cutlery wasn’t clean. Had to clean them before we used them. I ordered the fancy looking pie on the menu. My partner ordered eight chicken wings and chose the sweet chilli sauce to go with them. I’ll start with the Steak and Ale Pie. Whilst it was a large pie and the portion size was very good, I actually struggled to find any meat that wasn’t also accompanied by gristle. Chicken wings were delivered in what I can only describe as an Aluminium Tin, that somehow had managed to avoid being melted down during WW2 to make Spitfires. The wings were soggy and soaked in the Sweet Chilli Sauce, which made the nigh on impossible to eat. The sauce should have been served on the side. Quiet honestly it looked a mess. The lady waiting was lovely and very polite, however, there seemed to be plenty of other staff members just dossing around which could have been cleaning cutlery. Not memorable at all.

Fantastic pub. Excellent facilities. Free parking and free WiFi. Food is delicious and always hot. Drinks are top quality. Staff are friendly.

Myself and partner come in here all the time. Always feel welcome, ask for football, always put on and always go above and beyond to go the extra mile to suit needs (cucumber in Hendricks😉) - ask for Ashely if you ever need anything! Always the one to go to

Had dinner at the fox & Crown fantastic pub beautiful food and great staff it's the first time I've been out for Sunday lunch and really enjoyed it everything was cooked to perfection and for once it was a home made Yorkshire pudding witch is a first wev been a few times now and because the foods so nice wev already booked for next week.compliments to the chef and staff for running a pub you really want to go back to time and time again..

Absolutely awful had chicken share platter all of it was cold .tje chiken so hard was like rocks and inedible.the chef must have know it was well over cooked but served anyway .by reading a lot of reviews on here they have no standards and just send anything out .definitely won’t go againn

i just have to say that my visit the other day was beyond perfect the young lady who seated and served me was wonderful!!! i asked her for her name i believe it was hetty she was amazing her customer service skill were brill, best believe i will be coming back just for that young ladys service and the food which was delightful , 5 stars all around!

Nice food but needs a good clean everywhere and staff could do with a bit of cheering up

Ashley was most helpful, pointing me in direction of the knives and forks, was definitely happy to help. Was the nicest burger and chips I’ve had for a long time. Thank you

Nice pub, not much more to say 😁

Had a cheeseburger which was good. My dog had a dog sausage which he inhaled so must have been good as well. Gave 1 star for the atmosphere because they put people with dogs in a small area with a pool table in the middle which is not ideal.

I had the chicken nuggets and chips in two day's in a row and 5oo star's from Evalynn fox age 10

Went there on Friday had one of their special burgers was fine , went for Sunday lunch and the food was disgusting, my partner had beef which was probably from day before potatoes over cooked and veg cold. I had mixed grill which was the worst I’ve had won’t be in a hurry to go there again

Been out to the fox and Crown twice with work a group of 8 the first time and 7 of us the second, both occasions the food has been fantastic. We take some time to sort out bills as each pay individually and it was no trouble to the staff at all, they are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The meals are really good value and great pub grub!! Everything is totally accessible with car park access straight into the pub on the same level and a descrete disabled access toilet . Overall a lovely trip out and will be taking the family out in the near future.

Always a cracking atmosphere when attending the Fox and Crown with extremely friendly and helpful staff! The food is also great! Couldn’t recommend a better place to visit :)

Had a pleasant Sunday afternoon in the fox easy to get served. Abbotts on draught. All ways a bonus. Friendly helpful staff. Good atmosphere. Had a light snack. reasonably priced Will be back again next Sunday.

Lovely food not many staff on though but was weekday

Had a steak. It was gristly. Nicely cooked though.

Was better today and food was nice but the pints are far from pints, so not somewhere I'd suggest if wanting value in drinks. OK but not great venue, smelly toilets etc.

Not bad at all, was waiting a while to be served. But food was good although mine was a smallish portion. Would definitely come here again.

10 customers in the pub at this time of the day. We have been waiting 1 hour and 7 minutes for a simple nachos meal which takes 15 mins to prepare. Poor service.

Only called for a pint, not too busy at the time we called, 5ish. Looked at the menu and looks good for meat eaters, need more V options, its not hard to do. Service for drinks where ok.

Steak was near enough inedible. Plates left on our table, nobody came to take them away for an hrs afterwards. Nobody came to see if we had any issues. Will not be coming again. AVOID

Visited last night and the service was incredibly slow. The food is not even worth a rating in my opinion. I had the signature burger and the burger was greesy tasting and asthough it was cooked hours ago but kept warm, wayyy too much mayo on the bun to the point it was soggy. The chips were hard and over cooked and cold. Out of the 4 of us eating there was only one of us that even enjoyed the food. I will not be eating here again and it is a shame as we have been coming here for years and live local. The only credit to this is pub is the bar staff on last night were friendly enough.

We really enjoy the lovely food, and not expensive.

Ben & Harriet Top Staff, always super friendly, never had a bad meal there yet !!!

Disgusting expensive inedible food. Not fit for dogs. Just paid 18 pounds for a beef flat bread and chicken wings. Total rip-off! The wings were simply vile,undercooked and swimming in stale old cooking oil. The flat bread had 5 slices of steak on the plate, the bread was hard and stale on the edge and plastered with oil in the middle. Both meals were not consumed and I have been relieved of nearly 20 hard earned pounds for the pleasure. I won't be going back....not even for a drink!

We had a large party for a 40th birthday. Nothing was too much trouble. Food, staff and service first class 👌

Amazing and friendly staff, served quickly. Food was cooked to perfection and lovely atmosphere will definitely be returning soon.

Food was good as was service, I had the mixed grill sizzler with sundae as desert, cooked well, hot n tasty and the sweet was ample, very reasonable price

Great experience booking the Beer Pong and reserved tables. Food was great, staff were fab and we had a fantastic night! Thank you all!

Food cooked to perfection, the order wasn't a small one but everything came out correct and hot and all together was a very relaxed atmosphere, 100% recommended 100% will be back.

Experienced waitress... me and my partner when to fox ans grown in Mansfield waited over 1 hour for food .... had a drink each and finished them before the food even came out and the staff are rude and not very organised either ... we had no knife or forks on table and the table was messy but yet you get told not to sit at dirty tables ... what about serving cold food to customers . Personally don't recommend going back

Waited over 1 hour for food .... it came and it was cold the burger was cold and the chips ... the chicken dinner was all cold ... the drinks we had went before the food .. and the price for the food I wouldn't even pay it their was no knife or forks on table and table was dirty and wasn't clean the staff are rude and ignored us

Starter took a long time to arrive and when it did is wasn't all there. We complained and were given the missing items after a further wait. We waited over and hour for the mains, some food was burnt and the quality was fairly poor. Lots of young lads in there swearing so not very family friendly. I wouldn't recommend

Nice place always friendly and welcoming

Can't fault it, quick service, nice pub grub, no screaming kids

Party of 25 visited tue 9th Jan 24 fantastic service and the food was great all order correct and prompt Food was warm well presented and went down a treat

Really enjoyed our food. Great quality, tasty food, fairly priced Will definitely be back.

Very large pub with plenty of parking, food reasonably priced and fish and chips where good for money paid, my friend had the pie and enjoyed
