We chose a selection of tapas, two for each person : they were abundant and very good.... The shrimps, calamari and vegetable were tasty and cooked with originality

Really nice new menu, with lighter options such as sandwiches should you not want a large meal. The food we ordered was delicious and well priced & the setting is beautiful. Will definitely be back for a Sunday roast. Wishing the new owner the best of luck.

We are staying just up the road for a few days and decided to pop in for a drink and lunch on Saturday. We were greeted upon arrival by the news that they had problems with the electricity supply and that there was a limited food menu and limited drinks. However we ordered and were both very pleased with the homemade pizza and burger that came out of the kitchen. We felt for the staff at having to explain to every customer about the lack of lager and certain food items. They were very polite and apologetic to all. We are returning for Sunday lunch today and am sure the food will be equally delicious The pub itself is a lovely big old beamed pub with good outdoor areas with views across the countryside which would be very pleasant on a sunny day

After the unfortunate death of the previous landlord the Fox was shut from January 2024 to August 2024. The new landlord, Steve, has introduced a very interesting menu as well as daily specials, such as Piri Piri chicken or home made Gnocchi. We have now eaten there twice and both meals were excellent. My first main course was sea bass on a bed of samphire, the second Moules mariniere. I would recommend both. People reading these reviews should ignore any reviews made before 2024. We will return.

We are regulars at the Fox but we were disappointed that, having booked for dinner on a Wednesday before Christmas, and there being a large sign up .saying that wine was half price for dinner on Wednesdays, they reacted by taking the sign down and refusing to honour it. Note to management - not a good look if you want people to come back. The food was pretty good.

What a treat . We thoroughly enjoyed the Steak and Lobster night at the Fox. There was a great atmosphere for this very well supported event . The food was superb , cooked exactly as requested and the staff were very attentive . We are regulars at the Fox and the food is always excellent but it is a great initiative to put on these special events and we are definitely booking in for the next special which I believe is a ‘game ‘ night .

My partner and I are regular visitors to the wonderful pub!! We have never felt the need to leave a review, though after our lunchtime visit today, we both wanted to put down on record what a gem this is in the Oxfordshire countryside. Staff are always engaging, the chef is so very personal, always coming to your table to discuss menu choices. Today, we both started with the cheese and haddock soufflé, which were spectacular, followed by a beautifully cooked duck breast and ribeye steak, both were wonderful. This pub cannot be recommended high enough, when looking for an eatery I would say look no further than the Fox at Boars Hill!!

Me and my partner came here hoping for a nice dinner however it didn’t meet our expectations. Firstly, it was a lovely sunny evening so we thought would be nice to sit outside for dinner. To start, the terrace was dirty and unpleasant with cobwebs everywhere and unclean tables. Secondly we had a couple sat next to us chain smoking which shouldn’t be allowed in an eating area as there should be a designated smoking spot. We decided to move inside to get away from this which was nearly empty and wasn’t a good atmosphere! Food was decent however quite expensive for what it is. When coming to pay we were charged 12.5% service charge which we didn’t expect, they took a while to come over and take our payment to which we had to go up to the bar and pay. Overall our experience was unpleasant and we will not be returning.

Fantastic evening at the Fox. We’ve recently moved to the area and wanted to try out local places. It was one of the warmest, friendliest pubs we’ve been to for a long time. Staff and customers were so welcoming and accommodating of us, dog and baby and food and drinks were excellent. Couldn’t fault it. Thank you, it’s so important to have great places for locals to go like the fox, we’ll definitely be back!

We visited briefly in Feb after a dog walk and the amazing bread had stuck in our minds since then, so we thought we'd stop again for a spontaneous Saturday dinner. We hadn't booked but were immediately welcomed. Drinks were prompt. Dietary requirements were checked with the kitchen and amended for myself. Food was superb, drinks were great and the whole team were friendly and looked after us. We have already recommended to our family that they go. A really good quality pub feel with brilliant food. Thank you!

Nice old fashioned pub, menu ok but pricey which we expected due to the location and we have been here before. My mother who is 81 was taking my brother and me out for my birthday after looking at the care home very near to the pub. My brother and I ordered fish and chips at £17 each and my mum ordered a thin steak which was on the 2 course menu ., she asked it to be cooked medium rare. The meals arrived , my brother had a lovely large piece of fish cooked to a light golden brown, mine was smaller and overcooked. My mothers steak was raw. I told the waiters who took the plates away but was back within minutes to say the chef says the steak is medium rare and both pieces of fish were in for the same length of time so he wasn't doing anything about it as he was too busy. I couldn't believe it , asked the waiter to look at the meals but all I got was a shrug, I said we wont be paying for the 2 meals. So we had to just eat what we could, At my mothers age there is no way she should be eating raw meat so after a couple of mouthfuls she gave up and we wrapped it up for the dog. I ate the overcooked white fish and left all the overcooked batter on my plate. My mother wanted it to be a nice lunch for me but also as you can imagine it is quite upsetting looking at care homes so this lunch did nothing to cheer us up. We will not be encouraging people to come and we certainly wont be visiting again even if my mother becomes a local. Not sure whether there is a manager but the chef seems to be in charge which doesn't seem to be very professional.

We booked a table for a Sunday roast at 2pm. When we arrived we were told once we were seated that there were no roast dinners left. This was really inconvenient as we then couldn’t get in anywhere else as everywhere was now booked up. It is unbelievable to us that management are incapable of catering to the amount of bookings they have. 2pm isn’t even late in the day to run out of food! In future I would hope staff have the initiative to ring their customers and let them know, before they actually turn up. This is shocking service and we won’t be returning.

A very warm and welcoming greeting and excellent customer service from Ellen. Yesterday we rediscovered this pub/restaurant which we have avoided for several years as the service and food quality declined. It was great to rediscover it and find that not only were we made very welcome, but also the food was great. Two perfectly cooked steaks and one perfectly cooked fillet of sea bass. We are looking forward to once again becoming regular visitors. The menu was quite small but celarly the restaurant hasn't yet recovered the numbers that used to visit, so we hope that this will grow as the numbers increase. We only booked at the last minute after trying a couple of other local restaurants where we were too late to get a table, and nearly didn't bother because there is no website for the restaurant and it isn't listed on OpenTable. So glad we picked up the phone.

We had set off to do the Old Boar Hill loop walk, didn’t realise straight way but ended up going the wrong way. We were walking along a path and I noticed what looked like a pub garden above us to the left. We were standing outside deciding if we should sit out there when a lady invited us to look at more seating at the back. Glad she did as it was a lovely decked area with views over the field. We sat down and ordered soda waters and checked our map and that’s when we realised just how wrong we had gone. It was such a pleasant spot that we decided to stay, have lunch then just retrace our steps to the car. We were very glad we did, the staff were very friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble and they let us know the specials and checked if we needed anything. For starters we had the chicken liver pate and Thai fish cake. Both very tasty. I then had the duck breast salad which was perfect for a summer afternoon lunch, fresh and filling. My husband ordered the linguine which you could add salmon to, which he did. Couldn’t resist a dessert so ordered the New York vanilla baked cheesecake with berry compote. It was nice and firm but melt in the mouth. I am glad we went wrong, it was a lovely find and pleasant way to spend a sunny afternoon. I think we were lucky with our timing as the waitress said that it gets very busy when it’s really hot. I would definitely recommend it and think we will return, when we attempt the correct route again but will make the detour to enjoy a meal after we finish the walk.

The food was lovely in all honesty but, service leaves a lot to be desired! We arrived at around 1pm, myself, my husband, 11 year old son and our little lab, we asked if they had a table for us for food and drinks to which we were asked if we had booked, we hadn’t but there were many tables both inside and in their lovely garden. The guy behind the bar said he had a table but food would be a minimum of half an hour, to which we replied that was fine we didn’t mind waiting. He then proceeded to tell us the waiting time a further 3 times and made us feel like he didn’t want us to stay, this was further reiterated by the less than happy waitress who at no point during our stay managed to utter a Thank-you or a smile! Bearing in mind it was around 24 degrees we asked to move from our table to one of the other many empty tables with a parasol to which we received a resounding no, so we asked if we could borrow one from the many empty tables, again a no! We would have quite happily stayed for more drinks if we weren’t blistering in the sun despite the poor service but alas we were clearly an inconvenience from the start!

We've been using the Fox Inn's takeaway service since summer 2020 and have always had a good experience. Order by phone, and collect in the car via a hands-free collection service. Food is reliable pub grub, excellent value for money, and the crumble of the day is always excellent and usually big enough to serve two! Would highly recommend their takeaway option and I look forward to visiting in person this summer.

Booked online day before and hadn't had any confirmation before we left the house the morning of the meal. (email confirmation arrived 11.30am for 12.30 am booking)Turned up early to confirm we had a table booked and were welcomed in. Meal was lovely and substantial, and arrived in good time. Recommend mushroom starter. Both had steak and ale pie which was a proper pie. Timothy Taylor Ale was either start or end of barrel and quite cloudy. Only other observation was it was quite chilly but I think the Main fire had gone out. Overall we would visit again and do appreciate it must be difficult not knowing how busy it is going to be day by day.

Hemos visitado el Fox muchas veces a lo largo de los años, así que sabíamos que la comida y el servicio serían buenos. Esta vez se demostró que teníamos razón de nuevo. Se llevó a nuestro perro, que era uno de los muchos perros en el pub esa noche, así que este es un buen lugar para perros.Lo único que encontramos que faltaba eran las medidas que se estaban siguiendo para Covid. Como mi hija trabaja en este sector, somos conscientes de lo que se debe hacer (menús de un solo uso, mesas acordonadas para permitir el distanciamiento social, condimentos traídos a la mesa según sea necesario, etc.). Desafortunadamente, cuando llegamos, estaba claro que el pub estaba lleno y muy ocupado. Mientras comían, llevaron a otra pareja a una mesa, pero pidieron que la llevaran porque sentían que estaban demasiado cerca de otros comensales. No pudimos ver mesas cercadas por distanciamiento social. Los menús estaban en la mesa cuando llegamos, pero claramente se habían usado antes, con algunas manchas de comida presentes de comensales anteriores. Los menús también se recogieron una vez que pedimos y luego se presentaron con ellos nuevamente (dudo que sean los mismos) para pedir postre. Condimentos en bolsitas en el centro de la mesa. ¡No usamos ninguno de estos dado que pensamos en otros comensales revisando la selección que teníamos delante!Nos encontramos con otra familia que conocemos mientras estábamos allí y los vimos unos días después. También destacaron la falta de medidas y se sintieron sentados demasiado cerca de los demás.En general, la comida es deliciosa, una buena relación calidad-precio y un gran servicio, pero decepcionante con la falta de medidas Covid.

Después de 6 semanas de encierro y 3 semanas de síntomas de Covid y recuperación, lo que necesitábamos era un chili con carne y un pastel de bistec y cerveza. Porciones generosas, exactamente la cantidad justa de picante en el chile y una gran sonrisa amistosa cuando recogimos.

Visitamos para una comida familiar un miércoles por la noche durante el "período de comer fuera para ayudar" y estábamos celebrando un evento familiar. El personal estaba claramente ocupado pero manejó todo bien, incluso cuando teníamos una variedad de requisitos para que algunos platos se modificaran ligeramente debido a algunos requisitos dietéticos, ¡nuestra camarera no podría haber sido más amable y amigable! El bistec estaba delicioso, al igual que el pastel con puré y las hamburguesas. Buena selección de cervezas y vinos. El postre también fue muy bueno.

Visitamos el Fox Inn para el almuerzo del domingo y disfrutamos mucho de nuestra visita. ¡Tuve el rosbif que estaba absolutamente delicioso! El resto del grupo dio el mismo veredicto sobre sus platos. Además, nos sentimos muy cómodos en lo que respecta a la seguridad de Covid. ¡Definitivamente volveremos a visitarnos!

We've had the takeaway Sunday roast several times during lockdown and can highly recommend. Easy, no hassle and very accommodating order and collection service with delicious and plentiful food every time.As things start to return a bit more to norm, we're really pleased to hear that the takeaway service is set to continue and look forward to being able to enjoy more scrummy Sunday roasts. Thank you to everyone at The Fox

Inedible lockdown takeout. Got a takeout tonight - 4 different dishes and all of them were disgusting. I really want to support and encourage pubs in the current climate but it’s hard to after tonight. Chicken burger was very dry and yet the bread was wet. The battered halloumi was so greasy my daughter still feels sick 2 hours later. The Thai fishcake was worse than school dinners and the liver inedible. The salads were good. I really hope it was just a take out blip as pubs need our support.

After weeks of lockdown we decided to try pub food at home. I called The Fox and explained that we can't use the takeaway service. After a bit of a thought they offered to deliver to us and it was a real treat! We had great starter of whitebait, nice and crispy, one portion of lovely fish pie and another of the special mix grill and even a couple of desserts. All were really good and the portions were generous enough that we had left-overs.It was really a lovely pub meal at home.Highly recommended!When local businesses struggle to survive the lockdown they really go the extra mile!

At the point of writing this we are all on lockdown so The Fox Inn is now offering a preordered food collection service. We today had two fantastic roast dinners and they were faultless, well presented and very tasty, they even come with little pots of mint sauce for the lamb and horseradish for the beef. They have a good system for collecting and the meals are excellent value for moneye

I ordered roast dinners today to collect contact free and they were absolutely fantastic! Staff were really friendly and helpful and popped our food in my car boot for me to avoid contact. The quality of food is superb, great range of veggies and meat cooked perfectly. No scrimping on the gravy either! Will definitely be using their takeaway service again! I highly recommend the Fox Inn and am looking forward to going in for drinks once lockdown is over! Huge well done and thank you to everyone there for managing to keep going throughout this strange time!

Ordered and picked up a lovely fish & chips takeaway in this lockdown time. Did not come into contact with anyone when picking up. It was ready in quick time and was still very hot when we got it home. It tasted really good and we will be ordering again. Thank you

We ordered Sunday lunch to cheer us up during the current lockdown. Generous portions of delicious roast beef with all the accompaniments, delivered safely into the boot of the car, a really splendid meal and outstanding value for money. A real morale booster!

Ordered from there takeaway menu, had roast beef and chicken, collected at 5pm. Superb food tasted so fresh and good amount of food too. Parsnips and carrots perfection. Good value for money. Also felt for owners as recently taken this pub on and then to be put on lock down. Definetly recommend to anyone looking for a hearty hot meal in these uncertain timesWill be returning if not for takeaway will be taking the family there when we're all allowed out! Also mentioned delivery of you have any vulnerable family members and worried there not eating well.

This place has been in seemingly numerous hands over the last year or so, and at the start of March with another new landlord we were a bit nervous about eating there but it was really good.Standard pub fare, but very well done (particularly the mushroom tagliatelle which was excellent), and an eager to please host who made us feel welcome.\Worth a try.

Llamado por primera vez en mucho tiempo. Estaba muy tranquilo cuando entramos en el ambiente era horrible. Pedí un filete cortado y salió un cabello, lo devolvió mientras mi marido comía mientras yo me sentaba allí y esperaba a que me trajeran otro, cuando salió tuve que comer solo y estaba completamente cocido y muy grasoso. Pidieron nuestra factura y todavía nos cobraron por la comida y tomaron un trago para "disculparse" en general fue impactante. No volveremos

Visité este pub en febrero. El cantinero recomendó visitar tres pueblos cercanos y me dijo por qué me interesaba cada uno. ¡Gracias! Fui a dos de los tres y disfruté más de Burford. La comida en este pub es muy agradable, especialmente el asado inglés. Y, por supuesto, la cerveza de barril.

Not sure if it’s changed hands. But the menus have gone expensive and the food not that great. Used to be a good pub for the odd lunch. We have kids roast beef was ok. Fish n chips the fish was good not for the price. Perfect the Fox at denchworth cheer and better food. Or the White heart similar pricing and better food.

It’s not often you come across a cosy countryside pub who’s chef outdoes some of the best restaurants in the country. So whether you’re popping in for a drink and a chat with the wonderful bar staff, or sticking around for an exquisite meal from the fantastic chef, The Fox Inn will surpass any expectation! Could not recommend enough.

I'm sorry to report a bad review. I had booked a Christmas menu booking about 6 weeks prior, and downloaded the Christmas menu from the website, pre selected what food we required and emailed the pub. No response. Re-sent email this week, got a bounceback. Checked website and the email contact still the same. Facebook messaged them. no response. Called them the day before our meal to check booking. they explained they had changed hands (8 weeks ago!!) and that they have a fantastic chef, gave me a load of sales blurb, very positive. Said we could just choose off the menu when we arrived. I asked if there was still Turkey dinner available?? As in a Christmas dinner? I was told yes. So we ordered 3 ham hock terrine and 1 onion soup. Soup was very rich and creamy....terrine was nice, small portion though but had a very salty dressing on it. the bread accompaniment was nice if you are a bread person. So I requested extra seasonal veg with my turkey instead of potatoes. I asked the server if they had broccoli or cauliflower? she looked blank and told me they had fennel??? or peas??? I said no peas.The only veg on the turkey dinner was cabbage which for a Xmas dinner was poor anyway. So I assumed I would just get a double serving of cabbage. I also requested extra gravy. When the 3 turkey dinners come out they had MUSHY MINTED PEAS on all of them. YUK!! who serves turkey with minted peas, and never mind the fact I said no to peas (the one veg I cannot eat as the flavour makes me sick) and it was all over my dinner. I sent it back and said I couldnt eat it.It also all looked very dry. I went to the bar to speak to a manager and explained how could you serve turkey with minted peas (its not on the menu!!) and where are the sprouts, parsnips and pigs in blankets for the christmas dinners? He said he would speak to the chef. About 5 mins later the server brought out some mustard and still no gravy so I reminded her. the gravy arrived when the 2 other dinners were almost eaten. She told me the chef was plating up another dinner for me. I said I didnt want it. everybody else was nearly finished and I couldnt face a dinner I didnt want. She did offer me anything else but by this point I was on shut down and wasnt going to eat anything they had to offer. THEN the chef comes out, a bit on the defensive to start with. We explained we were expecting Christmas dinner and he said 'its an a la carte menu' and I explained we had booked here for a CHristmas menu and only got told the day before the menu had changed, and only becuase I had had to call to find this out. He offered us desserts on the house but nobody took up the offer. We had a cheeseboard on the house but the cheese was all goats cheese and stilton, and a smelly cheddar, with a poor choice of crackers so i went away having eaten a small slice of terrine for my Christmas lunch! All in all a bad experience. Firstly, the old websitee should have been shut down or re-directed when the pub was taken over, all emails should have got re-directed and the Facebook page taken down or taken over and queries answered. Bad customer service. the menu is very french and onion and garlic on a lot of things, on reflection, had we have had the new menu earlier, we would have cancelled and gone elsewhere.

Our hopes were low because the menu looked uninspiring, especially for vegetarians, but the food was actually incredible (even the veggie option!) - clearly they have a very talented and passionate chef! They have just taken over the pub and with the staff’s friendliness and enthusiasm I hope they will thrive!

We called in here as I’d never been and thought we’d try it out. We ordered two cheese scones with butter and two coffees and sat in the garden. Our very small scones arrived before the coffees, We thought as we buttered our not very cheesy cheese scones that the butter had a strange texture, the coffees were very small and not that hot. As we sat chattering I noticed on the butter wrapper, ‘use by 6/6/23’ The date of our visit being Monday 19th June!! My friend caught the attention of the waitress and told her we’d just eaten two weeks out of date butter, she just said ‘Oh sorry, I’ll tell the kitchen’ We sat for another 15 minutes half expecting maybe a further apology from the kitchen but nobody came near us, so we left having spent £12.30 on two small un-cheesy scones, stale butter and two small warm coffees. Obviously there won’t be a return visit.
