Visited yesterday for Sunday dinner. Service was so slow we started to wonder if we were supposed to order at the bar. This was the worst Sunday dinner I have ever had. Roast potatoes were dry. Roast parsnips were not roasted, seemed part-boiled only. Meat was chewy and cold. Would not recommend. If you are looking for Sunday dinner in the area I would recommend going to The Tame Otter just down the road. Wouldn't waste money visiting this establishment. Probably ok for pub grub but definitely not a Sunday dinner.

Never again....waited (as 'instructed') at the front door to be seated....After several minutes of waiting and no one arriving, we entered the pub/restaurant to look for a vacant table. We were immediately approached and told to go back and wait by the door and the manager would come to us....After waiting for several more minutes and no manager arriving, we promptly left and went to another local pub/restaurant (we do have several local choices) where we were immediately approached... This was not on a busy Friday night, but around 4pm on Friday 23rd. This is not the first time that the service here has been a tad rude...but it will certainly be the last

Scampi and chips were delicious and my dog quickly scoffed his chicken sausages from the dog menu. Dogs are welcomed warmly in the bar but not the restaurant. One of the grumpy locals informed me as I entered the pub as a visiting lone female. The beers are well kept and tasty plus a bonus on a Monday visit were they’re discounted! Highly recommended on the edge of Tamworth towards Lichfield. 😊🍻

Whilst ideally located for our family meet-up and providing good facilities in the bar, restaurant and garden, sadly the service could have been better with appropriate staff training. We were shown to a table for Sunday lunch but not advised how we should go about ordering and after 20 minutes of nothing happening had to summon a member of staff to pace an order for drinks / food. The food was distinctly average, with soggy, overdone roast potatoes which we had to request replacements for. Another delay in being able to order and receive desserts followed. All this ate into the 1.5 hours allocated for use of our table. At the end of this we wre 'reprimanded' by a member of staff who wanted our table for the next booking. However, unbeknown to her, we were still sat waiting for our bill which had been requested from another member of staff and still hadn't arrived. Management needs to step up on this. Staff need much better training and direction in regard to what is expected of them. Staff are polite and probably think they are doing their best, but they lack the direction and expectation of management.

Edit: So first time visiting after 4 years when someone nearly died! I must say this place has changed a lot! The food was incredible, drinks didn't have flies in it and the atmosphere was great! Sharon G was very friendly and helpful! I'll return and see if it lives up to this review but overall great experience this time! Used to love this place, I went couple days ago and basically somebody nearly died and staff didn't seem to want to help, im a first aider and was told to move and leave for the staff to deal with, then to top it off I had a fly in my drink and asked for a new one that took 10minutes to get. They also said I could have it on the house but made me pay for it?

Having had an excellent meal 2 weeks ago, we decided to return for another meal. It was the same party of 5 adults and a baby. 1st time absolutely no problems however on the 2nd visit we told we could not bring the pram into the restaurant. We said we would use the car seat but again that was refused so we decided to use the pappous so that we could move the baby away from the table whilst food was being served, but again this was not acceptable so we had to leave. It was just as busy on both occasions so l fail to see the problem. Very disappointed, and will not return.

Three of us had lunch at The Fox on Wednesday 1st November 2023 and it was excellent. The cleanliness, food and atmosphere was lovely but what really made our experience special was our server- the fantastic Margaret. Margaret assisted us with dietary requirements that were not straightforward or on the menu, and she ensured that we were accommodated with excellent food that was swiftly delivered. We cannot fault our lunchtime visit in any way especially in terms of value for money, but Margaret provided the special touches that will keep us coming back

Poor woman looked like she was serving on her own but she was still so polite to everyone dining. She's a credit to the company!

Tried to have a nice anniversary meal with some friends on the 27 sept booked a so called time slot between 6 and 715 only to be told when arriving at 640 that as we had not arrived at 6, they had given our table away. They could have suggested we wait in the bar area until a table became vacant but curtly said they had no table for us and wouldn’t even try to solve the issue we offered to eat in the bar and yet again the very condescending restaurant manager said sorry mate can’t help you it beggars belief that the sorry state of the pub industry can turn down a £150 plus bill in these hard times especially when you have booked a table!!! We had been to this pub on many occasions previous and had no issues with the same booking system but unhelpful staff adds insult to injury which is obviously a training problem Like to finish on with a warning to future customers just because you book a table don’t bank on having one !!!!!!!!
