The Fox in West Berkshire

We had a lovely lunch for my sister’s birthday. The staff were very friendly and the meal was tasty. The pub is off the beaten track but it’s worth the trip. Whilst we were there there was a sizeable herd of wild deer in the field opposite. A great country pub!

Eleven of us for a post New Year get together Quiet area allocated food was very good and catered for 10 to 75 years of age. I would recommend

Amazing food, great people, great company. All food is cooked with passion love and a little sprinkle of the Official secrets Act.. Using time adjustment technology , and even open portals , staging abductions. They really serve their country wonderful place , its sad about Semi- Retirement hours My wife and sister absolutely love it here.. Beautiful view, just try to come when they use time adjustment technology... This has been rated 10th best pub by NSA Mi6 USAF .. check the 2024 newsletter for details . Julie , Margret , Andrew ,Marion, Keith, Darcey, Lizzie and Bartholomew . Phil and Lauren we love you Can't wait for 2025 !!!

We love the Fox at Peasemore and used to come here (and to Lauren and Phil's previous pub) quite a bit when Mum was in a care home in Newbury. It was wonderful to find the food and welcome is still as fantastic as always. I had the seabass fillet, served on a sunstantial fishcake in a tasty chive sauce, while H had one of their delicious chicken pies. Both home cooked, with chips and veg done to perfection - proper country pub food and very reasonably priced. Booking ahead is always advisable, especially now as Lauren and Phil are entering a semi-retirement phase in 2025 and reducing their restaurant's serving hours quite a bit so they are sure to be busier than ever! We'll definitely be back even though it is quite a trek from Cardiff to Peasemore 😀

We had a beautiful meal at The Fox at Peasmore, food is lovely, great choices and for kids. Lovely atmosphere and super lovely staff. Would highly recommend.

We had lunch with friends and The Fox was the perfect venue for a catch up. It was our first visit and the food was the best we had eaten in a long time. I had one of their handmade pies and my wife had the sea bass, both were delicious.

We chose this a central location for a group of 6 of us to meet up for a long, lazy, late lunch and were not disappointed. The food and service were excellent. Friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Comfy seats meant we had a lovely chilled catch up together and we stayed for the afternoon.

Lovely food and beer, attentive and engaging staff, all together a wonderful experience. Fully recommend. Go there !!!

Absolutely amazing Beautiful place Lovely food Great atmosphere Perfect Service We’ve been to the Fox many times it’s always great on the staff always very welcoming When we call up at the last minute and they’re extremely busy, they work hard to find somewhere to sit

We had a lovely meal - recommend the duck and venison! The atmosphere was buzzy and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. We don’t live in the area but if we are ever back near Newbury we will definitely visit again.

Lovely pub with excellent food and great staff. Would recommend booking and will definitely go back. Everything perfect!

Super food, friendly staff, tasty pies to take home. Just a wonderful, relaxed Sunday lunch in a lovely atmosphere. The whole family enjoyed their food including the roasts, pies and the sea bass, and the desserts were phenomenal!! Exactly what a great pub should be. We will be back soon!!

Always a great atmosphere and such very informative and friendly staff. The service is always super and the food well to say exceptional would be an understatement. You do need to book early for their special events but they are great value and if you are a loyalty reward club member then you get a £10 reward voucher. Very highly recommended

Really excellent Sunday lunch with an extensive menu and good range of vegetarian options, all in a very comfortable location. Clearly popular which is great to see from a village pub. Service superb.

Good food and service as per usual. Use regularly for a quick relaxing dinner( pies are great flavour and value) and drink at the end of the week

Food and service was outstanding! A great evening out and value for money, many thanks. The Chateaubriand was cooked to perfection with a nice glass of red!

Fabulous meal in a very friendly atmosphere. You can always rely on The Fox for a great visit with excellent food and drink at a good price. The staff are first rate and make your visit very enjoyable. The owners Lauren and Phil really know how to ensure you have a great visit. Thanks!

We stopped by a short while back as We had been told about their amazing selection of hand made pies with locally sourced ingredients. We enjoyed it so much that we went again for Dizzy's birthday meal. Again great food, lovely staff and a very welcoming atmosphere. We will most definitely be returning soon.

We came here recently for dinner and were greeted warmly by Lauren. We ordered the fishcake, Stilton pate and smoked salmon salad. All were delicious. We then had the pie and lamb which were all tasty and wonderfully rich. We had some great red wines and local ales. The bill was very reasonable and we definitely recommend.

This is a lovely pub - well Worth the drive through twisty turny country lanes to get there. It was busy - lots of locals which is always a good sign. Really welcoming and friendly. Great menu choices - the chicken Kiev was fab… a far cry from boring breadcrumbed chicken fillets you often get!! All fresh and really tasty. Great drinks menu too and all reasonably priced. We’ve already booked our next visit!!

Another lovely lunch at The Fox and always a very friendly welcome and relaxed atmosphere. We love the Sunday roasts and also the home made pies, we even took two more home, delicious. Thank you all at The Fox

Excellent food and could not fault the service, I just wish I could have used the voucher they sent me for my birthday, on a Sunday!

My mum has limited mobility and the staff , Meg in particular, couldn’t have been more accommodating in helping me with parking and ramps . The Roast was well cooked and ample portions We all had a super visit and will come again .

Last Saturday, and with very little notice we needed to find a lovely pub in the countryside with great views and food to treat my mother in law. We rang The Fox early and left a message asking for a table for three and were quickly rang back by a delightful lady. She explained that although the pub was full, they would be able to fit is in if we didn’t mind a table in the shop area. We of course said yes and arrived early a couple of hours later, where we were treated to a warm welcome and invited to have a drink outside and admire the gorgeous views while our table was prepared. We were led into a delightful little nook which was cosy and quiet. The meals were delicious (home made pies all round!) and the staff courteous and very friendly. Overall, a fantastic experience that delivered everything we had been looking for!

A lovely country pub, we got a warm welcome from the minute we walked through the door. The menu was amazing and being gluten free I could not believe how many choices there were for me. The food did not disappoint it was presented beautifully and tasted delicious. The mini desserts were a definite hit! Great value for money and we will be back soon.

Called last minute for a Sunday lunch, they were able to seat us at the 2nd sitting which was great! Food was delicious, cauliflower cheese was top notch. Only request would actually be a bit more vegetables and it would have been perfect ☺️ thanks a bunch.

Drove out to this lovely pub today as had seen good reviews. Well it didn’t disappoint. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed by a lovely lady who asked if we had booked , we said no but that wasn’t a problem. It’s an old pub but very well presented , lots of tables but not too close . Chose a lovely table in a corner with a quirky shop selling cards , prints notebooks local honey etc. menu had a good choice of food, average prices and when it arrived it was lovely and hot , well presented and tasted lovely . Will definitely be back

Beautiful setting, window seat looking out onto fields , great service and tasty food, definitely a great venue for our lunch

Great location, well out of the way so nice and quiet. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Food was unbelievably good. Can't wait to go again.

A really great place to dine for a super meal and service. Recommended by a friend and I will recommend it to all of mine. Here's to the next visit.

Lovely country pub with friendly staff and fast efficient service. Plenty of choice on the menu and we enjoyed a roast dinner finished with creme brûlée which was delicious

Really lovely atmosphere and amazing food. Stumbled upon this pub and tried it out with my family. The food was excellently cooked and beautifully presented. The staff were very friendly and super attentive. Very welcome pub and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Everything was perfect. The food was absolutely delicious. The staff were attentive without being intrusive. Very friendly. We’ll definitely go back. Lovely setting and plenty of on-site parking.

Fabulous food. Fabulous staff. It could not have been better. The pub was really busy but our food was not delayed in any way.

Lovely restaurant - catered very well to a large family Sunday lunch. Everyone’s food was brilliant. Service was great! And we were very well looked after!

I highly recommend the Fox the atmosphere, food and service all perfect. Looking forward to my next visit which hopefully will be soon

What a fantastic place, absolutely loved the Sunday roast that our whole party enjoyed. Puddings were amazing too. The choices were perfect, prices just right for the amazing quality and portions just right. Will definitely visit again. Nice atmosphere in lovely location. Thank you and keep up the excellent work.

As a party of seven ladies we stop at the fox for a Sunday roast on our way home from the Cotswold, and we could not have chosen a better place… the friendly atmosphere and staff and food was excellent and we all said that...

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch here this afternoon. Good beer, lovely staff and great food. Highly recommended. Five stars.

The food is always excellent and very reasonably priced . All the staff are friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend it !

Very popular pub but quiet on the day so suited our young pup. Lovely beer, superb pies with excellent chunky chips. Always a welcoming smile from staff so very enjoyable.

The Fox is a great place to eat, lunch or dinner. Our Anniversary lunch was very pleasant, with friendly staff, which made our experience special. Lovely atmosphere

We arranged a family lunch at The Fox. Unfortunately some of our party arrived late but the staff were very understanding and the chef agreed to serve us a little bit later than the 3.15pm cut off. The lunch, roast lamb and beef was cooked...

The whole experience was wonderful, the staff were so friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious, couldn’t fault a thing. Will definitely be returning.

Excellent food, great atmosphere in beautiful setting, friendly attentive service and reasonable prices, what more could you want.

My husband and I came for Easter Sunday lunch, both the service and food was excellent as always, we always go there for birthdays and anniversaries.

We had a fabulous family lunch, great food and the speciality pies were to die for. Staff were all lovely, Professional and went out their way to make sure our day went to plan

Very nice welcoming pub in a lovely area! Fabulous Sunday lunch! - difficult to decide on a pudding, such a nice choice - will definitely be going again soon!

Lovely country pub in peaceful location. Great menu, spoilt for choice especially with the range of home pies. Between the four of us we sampled three different pies. All delicious! Highly recommended.

A delicious dinner. Homemade pies are worth a visit - I’m working my way through them. The homemade shortbread with coffee is a lovely touch. Outstanding service. Lauren is an amazing host.

Really lovely Sunday lunch, good beer and amazing, attentive staff and landlady. A proper treat. Just remember to book!

Fabulous food and great service , lovely friendly atmosphere, we hadn’t visited for a while , not sure why we left it so long , an amazing place , we will definitely be back more frequently this year!

sunday lunch was perfect, staff were exceptional, very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble, went out of their way. food was very very good with an extensive choice. GF member of party was bowled over by the choice. almost as if every standard item could be adjusted to be GF, very rare but a true reflection of this pub. perfect

Great food at a reasonable price, served by friendly and efficient staff, in a very pleasant ambiance. Looking forward to our next visit..

We came in for Mother’s Day and all had a lovely meal. I especially loved the chicken pie. The pastry was light and had a lot of filling in with a lot of flavour. Every course was delicious and good prices. Staff were very lovely, friendly and attentive.

We recently visited the Fox and could not fault the service we received. The staff were very attentive from start to finish. My husband enjoyed fish and chips with mushy peas and I the steak and ale pie, which was to die for! Full of meat, flavour and cased in beautiful pastry. The children had the kids pasta with a side of chunky chips followed by an ice cream which was included in the price. Great location for a family lunch, we will be back soon when the weather improves to also take advantage of the beautiful surroundings and children’s park close by.

A wonderfully comfortable public dining house with a warm open fire! We were welcomed for dinner: my Wife, son (4) and I. The staff were friendly and engaging. The food was excellent. We were tempted by hearty pie dishes and we were not disappointed! My son had fish goujons and is usually quite fussy but he wolfed the lot! Desserts were ample in size and full of flavour. Cost of meal was on point. Very happy and will definitely be going back soon.

Friendly staff however poor over all experience. Food quality poor, especially the burger - literally just a patty and one slice of tomato between two cheap white baps. Dry and tasteless. Highly recommend you add lettuce, cheese, mushroom and gherkin. Pies were tasteless and stodgy. Unfortunately still normal pub prices too despite poor quality. Decoration, cutlery and crockery very dated.

Enjoyed a warm welcome and delicious food. The choice of pies is excellent. Definitely a highlight. Full on a Thursday evening pays testament to the staff and the service they offer. Well worth a visit.

The best roast beef I've had out. Cooked perfectly rare - thank you! Outstanding service, comfortable chairs and setting. Well worth a visit but you will need to book!

Good food, good atmosphere and a lovely country pub to visit and eat in. Renegade beer on tap was a great addition to our meal

Excellent steaks beautifully cooked, a very nice wine in an enjoyable environment. What more could you ask for! Give it a try

We chose The Fox at Peasemore because of its central location for a family get together with 16 adults and 2 small children, all travelling from different directions. We couldn’t have made a better choice! We were given a warm welcome, with very friendly and...

We had a wonderful roast Sunday lunch at The Fox on Sunday. Delicious food and very friendly service. We also loved the desserts: beautifully presented and good portions. Thank you so much. We will be back!

Great food, very good value and a friendly relaxed atmosphere. My husband and I went along to the valentines night. £70 per couple for three courses - brilliant value

Very welcoming and warm environment with excellent quality food and service at a reasonable cost. A guaranteed good time for all.

This pub is worth travelling out too. All the staff are really friendly and make you feel very welcome. The food is always brilliant.

We popped in one Saturday lunchtime on the off chance they had space. They were fully booked but happy went out of their way and made space for us. The food was glorious and the service was even better! Cannot complain at all. The price...

A very memorable place to visit for all of the right reasons: lovely location, great food and friendly accommodating staff. We highly recommend this pub for lovely memorable experience!

Visited for the first time to celebrate a family birthday. Everything was great and the service was excellent with very welcoming and friendly staff.

It is a very traditional pub. Could not ask for better service. Staff is always friendly. The atmosphere is great and the food is always great.

We haven't visited the Fox for 6 years but found it to be good honest food in conviviable surroundings much as it was all those years ago. Our waitress was excellent.

What a lovely, traditional pub! Very nice food and efficient service! A great atmosphere. Reasonably priced too. Will definitely be back 😀

Lovely lunch as usual. Great service, great food and hot plates! Always a good choice and such pleasant staff who actually look pleased to serve you

What a lovely pub! The smell of wood smoke, the comfy seats and fab views made this a great place to meet friends. We had a delicious lunch and will be back.

2nd visit with friends and once again not disappointed. A pleasant welcome and attentive service. The menu was standard + for a pub but delivered swiftly and well cooked with good portion size. Already speaking to friends about a return visit. Many thanks

A very tasty lunch, beautifully cooked. A great choice and a warm welcome. Would definitely go again and highly recommend a vidit

Excellent food, comfortable with pleasant ambience and friendly efficient service. Good menu, just wish they served biscuits with the coffee!

Lovely location, great atmosphere, very friendly helpful staff and the food was superb and importantly in this day and age the prices are very reasonable - definitely worth a return visit in the spring/ summer.

Good food,nice people,great pub and good beer,old pub with open log fire,very friendly staff,food not to expensive with a good range

Lovely village pub with home cooked meals and local beers. 10 people eating at our table and all food came out quickly and hot

Fox at Peasemore should be Fox at Piesmore. Absolutely delicious pies both savoury (Steak and Game) and sweet (apple). We had an anniversary lunch in December and lived the pies and chips. I assume Phil is making the pies, a master pie maker indeed.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Piping hot, well presented. Staff attentive. Dog friendly. Drinks reasonably priced. We'll worth a visit

Perfect country pub for a cosy lunch, we were so well looked after & the food was great. It was my first visit & I will definitely return in the New Year

Another lovely meal at The Fox at Peasemore. A warm welcome, great service and delicious food. Starters, main courses and desserts were all excellent, with the beef wellington being the star of the show this time, closely followed by the confit duck leg.
