The Fox. A former pub, now cafe and B&B. I believe you can still get a drink in the bar if you are a resident once the cafe is shut. What a great way to keep on old pub running. I have not been to the Fox for at least 5 years or more, and had starved myself that morning for The Big Fox Breakfast! Apart from a bit of a wait which they apologised for (and gave me an extra egg and sausage as a decent gesture) the breakfast was as great as I remember it. Great quality ingredients, freshly cooked to perfection, and just what I needed. The place was busy with workers who are part of the big property developments that are springing up in and around temple meads. Some of the guys were staying above the Fox and love it! There is also a garden out the back with seating if you want to go Al Fresco in your high viz!

Popped in today for a breakfast it was really lovely. This place is hidden out the way a bit and right in the middle of loads of building work, but we are glad we went to try it. Also please tell us the bread/ toast secret. It was so nice!! Lovely staff also 😀

A very cozy and welcoming pub. I came here to have some coffee while waiting for the garage to fix my car and i was so glad i did it. The staff was very kind and the coffee was delicious. Also the temperature was perfect, which i am grateful for as it was freezing outside. Thank you!

It's as if you stepped back in time. A corner house Pub, with a cosy atmosphere, quiet pub,enjoyable food, and a Tate & Lyle Tea house environment in one Place. A part of history to be preserved. Highly recommended to drop in for food, drink, stays in rooms above. And in Bristol. Its a quiet lovely location. When exploring Bristol. To stumble across the place is fantastic.

One of the bar staff was clearly up to his eyeballs on coke, rude as hell. The others were only rude. Nothing on tap, and charging 7 pound for a bottle of Moretti.

Quite a good option for the price. The location is quite industrial, but just a few minutes walk from the Temple Meads. The owners are extremely welcoming and helpful. The last but not the least, one of the best full english I ever had. Highly recommended.

Summary: Food great, staff and service great, price great. I've visited this café with a friend a few times over the past six months but forgot to leave a review until now. This place has a classic old skool 'greasy spoon' vibe, which I mean in all the best possible Kenny Everett taste. The food isn’t greasy though, it’s a proper English breakfast done right, with just the right amount of indulgence, and very filling portions. The staff are straightforward and unpretentious, yet kind and polite. The food is very reasonably priced, and if memory serves, I think comes with a gratuitous mug of tea or coffee included in the price of the breakfast (don’t quote me, as I might be wrong). A word of caution – use it or lose it - with a growing number of student accommodation places being built in the area, this café will likely soon vanish as fast as pubs off the high street. Hopefully people will make it their ‘go-to’ breakfast & other food destination (I’m not the owner / a member of staff).

Had a brilliant vegetarian breakfast today...very tasty! My husband had the meaty one. Lovely pot of hot tea. Nice atmosphere, everyone was very friendly. Cute dog - as they are dog friendly, so next time we go, we will take our greyhound Jilly. We were very impressed.

Booked last minute for a gig at the Marble Factory about a minute's walk away - what a hidden gem! Very friendy staff, excellent location and relaxing vibe. No brekkie at weekends but only a 10 min walk from Temple Meads & lots of cafes. Excellent value.

Absolutely terrible, got kicked out 2 hours earlier than agreed with no prior warning, from what I’ve heard that 5 months planning down the drain for nothing. Operating in bad faith and admitted they were in the wrong but decided to kick us out anyway. Never coming back.

5 STARS FOR THE FOX What an unreal gaff this is. The best breakfasts in all of Bristol at a proper fair price. Rich, Sol and Liam are top lads always making the place feel welcoming, and the weekend day parties are perfect to have a boogie and a cold cider in the sunshine. No place like the fox! X

What an amazing place, rooms are immaculate, food is to die for (especially the breakfasts). Has a lovely garden area they use for events which has a really nice relaxed jungle vibe. Drinks are reasonable for the area £5 a pint can’t go wrong! Love it

DO NOT go to this venue! I was spiked with valiums and there are a lot of drugs being sold there and being took inside the cafe. People were doing ketamine on the bar and they don’t even have beer on tap. Just cans of thatchers for £8. What an absolute rip off. I will never be here again. Rude people. Rip offs. Scammers

We were accused of one of our friends tolieting around the bathroom even through there were alot of old people staying there who could have toilet problems. Offered to clean everything the next day to help but they sent in their mussle to kick us out. There is zero proof it was us, then accused my girlfriend of doing it, sounds like they wanted to scam us out of money. Thew us out to sleep in the car. Disgusting and ripped us off £80.

Nice coffee, but I have been working my way around Bristol's coffee shops and I have had better. Still 100x better than a Nero/Starbucks/Costa though! Toasted banana bread was nice. Good atmosphere, and a great place to sit to work or watch the world go by.

Fui a almorzar con la familia. Se reservó una mesa a través de OpenTable. Llamamos al restaurante y preguntamos si podíamos venir antes. Fueron muy serviciales. Camarera sonriente y sensible. Probamos el rabo de buey, combo de croft, lubina y filete. Todos los alimentos fueron cocinados muy bien, especiados y condimentados a la perfección. Generosas porciones. Mi única queja sería que los precios que aparecen en el menú no incluyen IVA -tal vez esto debería mencionarse en alguna parte-, por lo que la factura total fue más de lo esperado. De todos modos disfrutamos de nuestra comida y su sabrosa comida merece 5 estrellas.
