The Fox at Lyng in Breckland

80th birthday meal out .. 11 of us .. meals chosen in advance.. we took out well behaved Fox Red Lab … lovely food .. thanks !

The Fox is such a special, charming pub in a lovely location. The staff are very attentive, friendly, and kind. I have visited numerous times. The menu features pub classics, burgers, on the day specials and desserts. Excellent value for money. I love the roasts! Hands down, some of the best food I’ve had recently! They use the freshest local ingredients and make sure each dish is done the right way. Amazing from start to finish! 🍽🙌

Great Sunday roast. Lovely pub with friendly staff. Would recommend and looking forward to next visit.

Been for the first time today on a works Christmas dinner, had a fantastic time. The food was amazing, brought out in good time and perfectly cooked. The drinks were first class. Thoroughly recommend and will be returning again.

Great place, great food,what's not to like?

What a beautiful pub, fantastic staff and food. We really enjoyed our Mother’s Day meal, and will definitely be returning 👍🏽👍🏽

Booked a table for my husband and I for a valentines treat and we were not disappointed. Each table was decorated with candles and hearts and table service was friendly and very efficient, and the food was lovely. Thank you. 🙏

Lovely staff very helpful! Food was amazing!

Very nice food, served by very nice people, highly recommended. There was quite a wait for it but they may have been understaffed. This did not detract from the quality of the food or pleasant manner of the staff. I would definitely go again.

Everything about this place is amazing. The warm welcome, excellent food, and wonderful service have made The Fox a firm favourite for us! You can tell there are a lot of customers who are regular visitors, which gives a great first impression. We will definitely be back!

I entered the front door to see a dog sitting up at table eating dinner .It really is taking English love of dogs to far .Dogs lick their bits enough said .Then barlady tried to pass off a bourbon as a whiskey. Probaly alright if it's only pub in village but get rid of the dog from the table .i have edited my review upwards as the reply re the whiskey/ bourbon question could have been a cultural mistake on my part and I should have asked for Scotch specifically instead of the generic whiskey I requested . I stand by the dog sitting up at the table eating dinner with the guests as immediately off putting . The people looked like locals and I wonder if it’s common practice .

My wife and I called in this evening for a meal and it was amazingly good absolutely delicious one of the best meals out we have had in a long time , highly recommended

We had a lovely Sunday roast dinner with our friends, service was great, beer was excellent 👍🏻

Great place. Service from Rachel was great.

An amazing where nothing was too much trouble

This is a great country pud, food is great, we'll worth a visit.

Had a family meal here today. The roast was excellent. The kids menu were good also. Excellent ice cream.

Super friendly, relaxed atmosphere and amazing food.

I love the Fox, definitely 1 of my fave local pubs/restaurants!! Had my 40th family meal here plus a big family & friends meal for my mums 60th & both were amazing!! Highly recommend The Fox ❤️

We booked in advance. This was my 50th birthday surprise. No space in the car park. We arrived the pub was bustling. Table service we didn't get any!! Ordered at the bar. Drinks were quick. Had to wait a while for starter. Which I had garlic mushrooms. Ciabatta was very soggy & doughy. When waitress came I asked is it always this busy she said online system failed meant to stagger people but booked them all in at once. It was LOUD VERY LOUD. Main was cold if you are not a big eater. Half a carrot half a parsnip 2 roast potatoes tiny I mean TINY cauliflower cheese. Pudding was lush

Had a Saturday night dinner and a Sunday roast, the staff were great, prices good, and the food was excellent……will certainly be going again next time we are in the area

Just popped in for a quick drink at this popular Village Pub, obviously well supported by local community.

Went here for Sunday carvery. Quite busy but friendly atmosphere and service. Food was good, although couple of thoughts. The pork was OK but not the best quality id ever had, and also having pickled red cabbage on the plate was just weird - to be enjoying a nice roast potato and then get a big hit of vinegar is just wrong im afraid. But was really nice and would go again.

Lovely place to dine, great friendly staff. Food amazing, all plates left empty. Amazing atmosphere. Can’t wait to return.

The nicest food we've had and the staff were so accommodating for our sons. Especially as its difficult to eat out as our eldest has an eating disorder. It was really nice to be able to relax and know that he was happy too. Nothing was too much and I'd love to visit again.

Good food Good service only remember there is large car park at the rear of the pub .

I had their biggest burger. Was okay. As a personal opinion the chilli didn't work, way too many kidney beans and had no chilli spice taste to it. Bacon had way to much fat. 7 out of 10 I think

Desserts could do with being a little more family friendly x

Honestly you can’t go wrong with the food here, the team are lovely too!

Very friendly service and dog friendly, freshly Prepared food and good selection. We visited on a Thursday evening and it was not packed but was fairly busy. Did not have to wait too long for the food and the local beers were very nice.

What an amazing place to eat, The food was excellent, The staff were polite, helpful, and friendly, and I would definitely recommend eating here.

Was slightly worried before visiting by the recent negative press on Tripadvisor but I really shouldn’t have worried! Infact I seriously cannot understand the negative reviews at all! I had the pleasure of eating at The Fox back in August and from the moment I saw the food I knew I’d chosen the right pub. Portions were pretty ginormous which is an instant win for me. Love lots of food! The menu here is also so large and there was numerous things I could’ve chosen. I had the Oozy Fox Burger. The burger was delicious and definitely oozing; the fries that accompanied were also scrumptious. The onion rings we had as a side were super tasty, hand battered and crispy. The dessert was coffee creme brûlée and was also good, maybe a little bit thick in texture for a brûlée, but nevertheless it was yummy. The service was impeccable from start to finish, the man who sat us down and served us most of the time was super friendly and chill. Very accommodating! The atmosphere was also lovely (we chose to sit in the old area of the pub as this has a cute and cosy feel). Not the cheapest of pubs and restaurants but it’s definitely worth every penny and I’d recommend to anyone who’s staying nearby as it was an all round fantastic place. Would definitely come again if I’m in the area!

Had our wedding reception here, fantastic food and great staff

Had lunch at the Fox. The pub is very nice and friendly service. The appetisers were good and my partners food was ok. But I’ve got to say i had the chicken burger. It was the worse burger & chips I’ve ever had.

Just to say thanks to Victoria and her team for going the extra mile on our wedding day . All the staff were fantastic and the day flowed from one event to the next seamlessly . The place looked fantastic and tables was a wow . The food came out and all I heard all evening apart from congratulations ,was the food was fantastic and could not be faulted . As it was a warm day we was asked if we would like the disco outside so we did again people danced all night as the hot buffet food was handed out by the team and the drinks flowed . Many thanks for all your hard work and dedication in running the fox , the village has a pub to be proud of.

Really tasty food and very friendly staff 😊😊

We went to The Fox on a recommendation that they have good vegan options, however there were only two vegan mains on the menu. I opted for the vegan jambalaya which was under-seasoned and had a sloppy texture. We had the caramelised olives as a starter as they seemed like a novelty but they tasted horrible, like someone had just poured sugar into a jar of olives. They were served with hard cubes of butter and some very small pieces of bread (we asked for more bread). The waitress spilled two of the drinks all over the menu and table and said she’d return with some blue roll to clean it up but never came back, so we had to use our napkins, which weren’t replaced. The halloumi starter was served with pomegranate seeds and lots of mayonnaise, which was too much. When the starters were served the waitress unceremoniously dumped extra cutlery in the middle of the table. The lasagna main was watery. By the end of the meal the table was absolutely crawling with flies.

Friendly staff good choice of food on menu. Food was very tasty well presented and all homemade which goes along way these days. Reasonable prices would recommend this place but advise to book as can get busy. Almost certainly will visit again

Steak pie was reasonable however Korean chicken burger was virtually inedible. Not great food overall.👎

Friendly people great place good live music

A lovely village pub with a very welcoming atmosphere and the food was fantastic

Nice place, good food local ale's

Food fantastic, great flavour, well cooked, different not your plan run of the mill vegetables,

Very poor service on a very quiet lunchtime - had to wait ages for food to come - not many people there - also very poor beer

Fantastic pub friendly staff we are staying in lyng all week so will be visiting most nights and hopefully eating here too.

Lovely street food, friendly staff, great pub!! Amazing vibe, especially for a Monday, staff attentive, lovely management and great Hawaiian shirt by the bartender

We came for lunch today and ordered roast beef. The staff were all friendly, welcoming and the order was taken promptly and drinks served When our plates came they weren’t heated therefore the food theron was luke warm and disappointing as the vegetables were nicely cooked just not up to temperature. I guessed by the fact no cloths were needed to bring the food from kitchen to protect hands. The beef was hard to cut and took a while to cut pieces off the slices as it was very tough. One of us had to leave most of their meat due to this. Such a shame as the presentation and vegetables were all looking good. When we spoke to nearby diners they said they found theirs was tough and only warm. The ambience in the far room was very nice and the decorations tasteful just a shame about the food

Great food great staff and customer services . Highly recommend.

Delicious roast Sunday dinner, decent portion and tasty food. The veg was delicious and NOT swimming in water, the beef was melt in the mouth delicious and all reasonably priced. We had dessert which was scrummy. We're only here for a week but I'm sure we'll go back again.

Came here for dinner and drinks with the in laws. Was shown and sat down by what we thought may be the manager, sat us down and never came back! Then along came Rachel, our server for the evening, had chosen what we all wanted to eat, 2 of those things were not available, disappointing, the man that sat us down should of Informed us as to what was missing off the menu but didn't, hence why we were disappointed as we didn't know, HOWEVER, Rachel apologised profusely, (she really didn't have to, as it wasn't her fault!) We then proceeded to order other stuff, food was amazing! Service (all thanks to Rachel) was fabulous! Would of left a tip but she finished her shift before we got a chance to. Would 100% go back just to see Rachel. Fab lady, she deserves ALL THE TIPS! ❤️❤️❤️

I did push 5 stars. But nice to see you reply thanks for making Me aware of this!

Lovely meal with family and friends. Good service and excellent food and choice of food

Went for a meal with friends as one of us was retiring, the food was excellent and all staff very friendly, even though the Moto cross was on and they were very busy, we still got first class service

Lovely people very help and fair. Pity first dish ordered was not nice but they put it right and replaced. So full stars for that

Excellent meal at a reasonable price. Friendly and efficient service.

We visit often and have never been disappointed. Really good food and drinks. Great garden for the summer too!

Probably the best Sunday roast i have ever had. Absolute thought has gone into how the food is served. Even the complimentary horse radish was damn amazing. The setting, the crockery and service was probably the best I've experienced. Whoever owns or runs this pub should be proud.

Great, friendly pub. We had dinner there. Portions were generous. Food was very good. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Would recommend.

Great place, very friendly. Seemed a great local, visited on two evenings and lots of locals enjoying meeting up

Probably best to start by saying that there is nothing wrong with The Fox, it’s just that it wasn't quite for us. We had driven past The Fox a few times and thought (from the outside) that it would be a good place to have...

Fantastic food. Staff very pleasant - nothing too much trouble. Such a varied menu. Good prices. Highly recommend.

The Houmus was the colour of strong tea and tasted vile The Sticky Pork and rice was also quite vile The Key Lime pie looked like I have never seen before,

Friendly staff who saw to us efficiently. Cheesy garlic bread to start, was tasty - lots of cheese, perhaps a bit too garlicky and the French baguette could have been toasted a little longer. My wife had the roast beef for mains - nicely done,...

We were recommended The Fox by our Airbnb owner and it didn’t disappoint. I booked over the telephone to ensure that it was a dog friendly restaurant for our pup. The lady on the phone was so friendly and assured me they we dog friendly;...

The pub's in a nice setting and has a large garden. For a big pub it doesn't seem to have a massive range of beers on offer, and the inside area is a bit bland. Food was good rather than outstanding and the portions were...

Avoid . Food awful , not as ordered and a big mix up. When it did finally arrive after 40 minute it was Luke warm and not up to standard for the price . Very rude and arrogant owner . Will not be returning.
