The Cross Foxes in Flintshire

Took the family for a meal last weekend and we were all impressed. The log fire in the inglenook fireplace was very welcoming. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Two of our party had whitebait for starters and said they were the best they've ever tasted. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Well done to you all at the Cross Foxes.

A very pretty pub not spoilt in any way. Recommend the delicious Roast beef . Beautifully presented and lovely fresh vegetables. Staff always friendly and polite. Keep doing what your doing!

We visited this pub in August 2024, this is our first visit since the change in management (January I believe). We were pleasantly surprised. We received a warm welcome, the decor has been updated and is lovely for couples, friends, and families. Dogs are welcome too. Here is the summary:- Friendly and professional service. Excellent selection of beers, wines and spirits. Good quality food with large portion sizes. The bar area is lovely, with an open fire, and a large, attractive dining room.

Delicious Sunday Roast with all the trimmings. A really lovely welcome and great atmosphere! Enthusiastic staff with great service.

This is a lovely local pub serving fabulous food. Enjoyed a great Sunday lunch today with locally sourced meat from Mold butcher. Good beer & wine selection too. Barmaid ‘Jam’ & waitress (Jams daughter) looked after us really well today. New pub owners Bex and Antony have made a really great start to their new business & have created a lovely vibe to the place- continuing the Cross Foxes popularity for both locals & visitors to the village.

A friendly local pub with a varied menu. Standard of service was excellent and the quality of food and price bears comparison with much higher priced restaurants in the area. Would visit again.

Perhaps we were just unlucky, from the reviews we expected a better standard of meal than we got. The chicken pie was a slice, rather than an individual pie and did not taste fresh. The rest of the food was nice, but nothing special. We will not return.

Went for Sunday 5lunch .old fashion pub that has had some re furbishments completed by the new managers, to create,a,new ,light and airy dinning room,yet still keeping the original old pub side.

Good friendly welcome atmosphere, fantastic food, great price and fantastic deserts. Well done to the new management.

Really great Sunday lunch, busy vibe, friendly team, good music, great wine… lovely cauliflower cheese :) Very reasonably priced. Thank you so much!

Good local pub, recently changed hands. Sunday dinner; Meat, gravy, yorkshire and swede were really good, greens were OK, stuffing and roasties a bit hard. Honestly, service was too slow. Plenty of opportunities to clear our plates were overlooked and staff stood around a bit. Not a criticism, just an observation from one waiter to another. Great price, great choice, great portion size and lovely starter and dessert. Best of luck 👍

Lovely Sunday lunch, great service, really enjoyed it BUT….neeeed cauliflower cheesexxx🤣😂🤣😂🤣, not a Sunday lunch without it!!!x

First visit to this beautiful country pub but won't be the last. Lovely warm welcome, generous home cooked Sunday lunch. Very reasonable. Hosts very friendly and attentive. Thank you would seriously recommend 👌 😊

5 of us went for Sunday lunch.Having read the 5*ratings .The pub itself and staff very nice ,very out in country ,infact could do with more signs ,and sign to say you can use the carpark at pub,as people parked on road . The Sunday roast was not upto the standard, of the reviews given .. Beef very tough, mash was sloppy,and roast potatoes were not as usual roasties,hard ,more like boiled new pots covered in fat and herbs and slightly roasted. ,also one small dish of peas and carrots for 5 .was inadequate. Desert of sticky toffee pudding was very nice but to much sauce on 2 and hardly any on the other one. Plus could offer nothing for non dairy person who they new when booking was non dairy.All of us said it was not good and expensive for what we had.

This is our second visit to X Foxes as we love the journey from our home on the North Wales coast a short distance away, the atmosphere here is lovely & relaxed & the Sunday lunch is superb. All home sourced & home made. Pleasantly served. We will be back & soon. Thank you.

First visit to this village pub . Just off the main mold Denbigh road . We got a warm and helpful welcome good food and ale and a very reasonable bill at the end Will definitely visit again

We were staying locally in a cottage and had done some review searching and this pub was top of the list to visit. We visited every day for a cheeky pint/glass of wine and we weer always greeted with a friendly welcome and a smile. We ate here twice as the food was amazing. This is NO pub grub, the food was 100% handmade and just simply delicious. The chicken burger and chips was Hot, and very tasty with a lovely garnish. The pie and pint was exceptional value for money (Thursday) I don't like pie, however on our second night Friday, they offered the pie without the pastry for me, WOW!! the filling was plentiful with huge chunks of chicken, ham and leek. Hubbie opted for the lamb dish and again stunning food. another great thing about this place is that it is dog friendly! We would 100% go back here if we were in the area and would highly recommend!

Curiosity pulled us here, what a fabulous quaint pub. Extremely friendly landlord, great beer, and the end of sunday food service roast potatoes put out for free. Based on the spuds we will definitely be back to try the full Sunday dinner.

The Cross Foxes is a well run pub in the lovely village of Nannerch. The lunch was superb as was the service so welcoming & friendly. We journeyed to get there, it was well worth it & we will return. Thank you.

They fitted us in at the last minute for a excellent Sunday lunch the apple crumble with custard was sooo good too. Good beer and a very warm and welcoming atmosphere would highly recommend.

Friendly and welcoming couple run pub. Open fire. Delicious Sunday roast with choice of 3 meats or vegetarian option. Fabulous dessert selection available. Recommend to book in advance.

We visited twice in a week - first and last nights of our holidays. Food was very tasty - the steak pie and the Tuscan beef being particularly well loved! The local/craft beers were apparently good snd the desserts were absolutely lush!!! Our three year old grandson was also well catered for and staff made us all feel very welcome.

Our first visit today but definitely not our last. The food was really excellent and the staff were great.

Great little traditional pub with good selection of beer and food, welcoming and helpful staff. Highly recommend it!

We Hlhad homemade steak and ale pie with shortcrust pastry (hubby in heaven) biggest chunks of meat imaginable plus I had scampi with no fat dribbling out when cut! The home made hand cut chips are to die for. The Lemon Meringue Roulade was very nice as was the Sticky Toffeep Pudding. Shame we were only in the area on holiday as I would love this to be my local.

As a group of seven we turned up on Sunday afternoon on the way back to our cottage. We received a warm welcome and our drinks order taken quickly. Once sat at our table we were supplied with warm roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings left from Sunday lunch. Fabulous, and just what the doctor ordered. Definitely encouraged to return.

We've been twice now for Sunday lunch and initially thought £9.95 was good value for one course, although we don't like not having table service; i.e. having to order at the bar like a chain pub. It's not so relaxing or a treat as Sunday lunch out 'should' be, especially having to get up during a meal and come out of the restaurant to queue at the bar again to order coffee or pudding when you just want to chill with the kids and enjoy a break. In addition, although the Yorkshires,roast potatoes, veg and gravy were all good, we left feeling hungry still and a bit fed up. This was because the meat (beef in my case) although tasty, was sliced wafer thin and there was only two slices. This meant you finished the meat way before the rest of the food, then didn't enjoy the rest as potatoes etc are a bit boring without the main act to accompany them. We are used locally, to Sunday roasts being two thick slices at least of meat, (slightly pink roast beef is our heaven) so the plate is balanced well between the meat and veg. We think it's a real pity about the meat as otherwise would've have rated it much higher, as we like the pub and I'm writing this in the hopes they might review the portions and adjust. We'd much rather pay a bit more and leave with our appetites satisfied and give our order at the table like you can at most of the other pubs in the area.

Fantastic pub with a great atmosphere. Tim and Janet are great hosts and the Sunday lunch is superb. Well worth a visit

Visited Sunday the 26th with friends for Sunday lunch, very impressed, very friendly staff and very good cask ale. We had the Sunday lunch, fantastic, very generous portions and we were even offered extra Yorkshire puddings! Well, well recommended and excellent value!

Charming pub with a landlord who keeps good beer and produces excellent quality food. The village location alone makes it worth a visit but note that food is not served on all nights. Check out their website for full details. Can't speak of it highly enough

Good beer,not tried the food but hear its very good! Nice village, nice village centre pub .... CAMRA listed, Try it!

We visited the Cross Foxes last night for our Christmas party and took over the restaurant. Food was great - excellent home cooked roast dinner, piping hot, for 32 of us. No mean feat when the 32 meals included veggie, vegan and gluten free variations (really tasty turkey, beef, nut roast, stuffed mushrooms, and very generous portions.) We were so well looked after - staff all lovely and cheerfully coping with us, despite us being in fancy dress and singing and dancing. Lovely, lovely evening - thank you Janet and everyone. I’d definitely recommend the pub and Im looking forward to eating there again.

Massive portions of well cooked comfort food. Nice country pub in a lovely village location. Parking a bit tricky but the village road is ok to park on

This was the second time we've been for a Sunday roast and again we weren't disappointed!!! We had booked but due to unforeseen circumstances, we arrived an hour early. No problem, Tim was brilliant and fitted us in on what was a very busy service! Fab food and fab staff!!!

We often pop in here on the way back from days out, especially during the winter as they have a wonderfully welcoming coal fire roaring away. The staff are lovely and as soon as you walk in, it's like receiving a hug from friends. Even the locals are happy to greet you on arrival. The pub serves good food, especially the Sunday lunch which is absolutely faultless. Good portions and well presented. Puddings are a must! They always have a couple of local ales on tap which I'm always excited to try. The pub itself is oldworldly, just how they should be. I love this place, it's just one of those places you can visit and know you will enjoy every minute.

I was a regular visitor when howard was mine host, but the new management is a perfect replacement runs a lovely clean warm inn, food is excellent

Lovely Sunday lunch with friends, good food, great ambiance. Nice friendly atmosphere and nothing too much trouble for the host.

Delicious homemade Pizza on Tuesday nights, with great choice of toppings. Would highly recommend their homemade chips too, if you feel indulgent! Great local ale to wash it down.

Lovely little pub in a picturesque village. Good honest pub food, very pleasant staff and locals... it’s hard to find nicer people. We’ve been made feel very welcome. Thank you and we will be back!

i was here almost every sunday for my lunch when howard ran it, the meals are excellent and couldnt fault them, now its under new management but the sunday lunch we have again was faultless and well worth another visit

A real,old fashioned pub tucked away in a pretty village. Lovely for a drink or a pub meal. Not fine dinning but good food.

Nice food, friendly host and great setting. This is what pubs should be like. We went on pizza night and they didn't disappoint. Real ale is excellent too.

We arrived at 6pm on a saturday when they just reopened for the afternoon. Friendly atmosphere, great food for all 4 of us. Traditional pub menu, with litlle selection. Came up on Tripadvisor as family friendly, but with the young kids I would probably go somewhere else next time. It is more of a local place.

Lovely friendly country pub. Good food. Helpful staff who work hard. Nice range of drinks/alchol. Dog friendly in the bar

Lovely village pub that offers lovely food and a great friendly drinking environment . Always enjoyed my meals here with very friendly service

Called in today, driving back to Conwy and had the most delicious Sunday lunch. We hadn't booked, the dining room was full but the landlord laid a table in the bar by a log fire, couldn't have been better. Pub staff and food were excellent.

Fantastic pub. Fabulous Sunday lunch. Great couple running it. Great for families or couples. And when you leave a voice mail they call you back. Highly recommended

We had never heard of this 'little' pub in deepest North Wales,but it being a lovely day, and the other good places we'd visited being fully booked for Sunday lunch, we took to the road anyway, and chose a scenic route.

I took my parents out for lunch today to the Cross Foxes. The welcome and the food were absolutely perfect. We all enjoyed a wonderful lunch. Thanks. We will return.

This was our first visit to The Cross Foxes and the moment we stepped foot inside the door we were given a warm welcome.

We were on our way back from Mold and we're looking for somewhere to eat. We saw a signpost off the main road and ended up at The Cross Foxes. We were late eating, but the landlord was very accommodating and we both had a Sunday roast. (Mine without meat) If you go here, be warned; the portions are huge!

Lovely food, lovely staff and lovely environment. If you want to go out one evening for a cheap tasty meal, this is the place. It is full the locals but there is alot people from the outside area coming to this pub now.

We are staying in Cilcain so wanted a nice meal out for the last day of our holiday. Really lovely welcome and food was delicious too. All home cooked and tasty.

I have visited many times for food and drinks and can't recommend The Cross Foxes enough. The staff are friendly and as hospitable as you can get, the food is great value and deliciously home cooked and the pub itself is the picture of British-ness.

Called in Easter Sunday without booking, service was first class, prompt and friendly. Sunday roast was absolutely top drawer, definitely be returning!

only been once. we work locally and wanted a sunday roast with the hassle of cooking it. was recommended to us. we booked in advance and thank goodness we did. fantastic quaint locally run pub. home made sunday roast. and the very best sticky toffe pud i have ever had

Amazing historic pub in a beautiful little village. Don't be surprised if locals rock up in their tractor! All the meals are lovingly prepared by local, Janet - excellent service and delicious food. Pop in if you get a chance.

This isn't the first time we have eaten here and it certainly won't be the last.

As a family of 9, we dined here yesterday for Sunday roast. Food was delicious and service was excellent!

Called in without booking today. Great welcome, the food was lovely and the place was warm and cosy. Will definitely be back. Thanks all.

found them very helpful and obliging and at short notice provided a very goog meal. will go there again.

Delicious food and lovely service. We were looking for a restaurant/pub that accepted dogs and found The Cross Foxes. So glad we did. The main (Sunday roast) and the desert (Belgian waffle) were absolutely gorgeous. We will definitely be returning.

Visited on a couple of occasions for the pie and a pint night, all homemade and delicious. Very welcoming, landlord and staff very friendly and service is very good. The pub is lovely, traditional decor and very cosy - a true village pub.

had a few lovely meals here whilst staying at old mill. Great atmosphere and home cooked food, incredible value - would definitely go back !

we decided on the cross foxes as we were visiting same day close by, only do lunches eg roasts on sunday but not a problem, we both had beef and deserts , the owner was very pleasant as was the young lady who served.. our meal was piping hot, would have rated 5 but for the beef was a bit chewy. didn't stop us from eating tho .. its a very nice inn very clean and a typical country inn

First visit but defiantly won't be our last .Excellent food and staff really pleasant.Pub lovely clean .Looking forward to our next visit and would defiantly recommend

First time here, found it whilst driving in the area. Its a very nice well presented pub serving a good range of beer and very good value tasty food. We found the staff very friendly too..

Well cooked and presented roasts. Beef and pork on the day of our visit. Pleasant setting with real fires. Prompt service. Good selection of vegetables and the cauliflower cheese was out of this world.

Went for an evening meal Tuesday 27th Oct. 2015. It is an old village pub with lovely open fire in the bar, a snug, lounge and dining room. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere and they keep a good selection of well kept cask beers and good well priced food. They offer theme nights and Tuesdays are Pie and Chips night (the best chips in North Wales, possibly Wales, probably the UK ).

My husband and I called at the Cross Foxes after an afternoons walking. Our impressions were of a lovely small cosy pub supported well by the local community. The manager and the staff were both friendly and efficient. I would say the menu was no frills but the food was extremely well priced and very tasty. In addition my husband, a CAMRA member was praising of the beer. When in the area we will definitely visit again.

Lovely Sunday lunch today - everyone was full to the brim but still managed a waffle or two! Great to see a good Sunday lunch being served again!

Great atmosphere, good value food , super friendly bar staff and clean warm environment with fab pool room!

Have been to a Cross Foxes a couple times and found it to be ideal for a rainy afternoon escape as well as a fun night out with friends. The landlord and landlady are extremely nice people who will strive to make your visit there enjoyable and accomadating. The pub has a nice friendly vibe and I am sure me and my husband will go back again.

Friendly local pub CASH ONLY. A good venue for a small party, with dance floor and in house catering.
