The Fox Den in South Gloucestershire

Had a wonderful evening, Ella was really welcoming. Definitely coming back!

Really nice pub, great selection of food on the menu. The waitress Ella was lovely and welcoming

Myself & my husband visited the fox den pub yesterday, and will be returning. We was served Tracey, who was super friendly and welcoming. The pub it self has not lost its touch ( visited a few years ago) see you soon.

I order online from UberEats. The foot is always great but the gravy almost always spills during travel (other places prevent this with better packaging). Nobody likes a dry roast!

Good value for money and our server Dillan was wonderful!

Had amazing meal the ambiance was lovely. Nice open fires food was excellent. Service was brilliant. Ollly was a brilliant waiter and so thoughtful

Had a lovely time and was looked after by Owen and he was fantastic. We were here on business and interviewed a sales person and got to engage with the staff and have some fun with it

Very disappointing experience at this pub. When I asked for a table for two, the waitress was incredibly blunt and rude, which made us feel unwelcome from the start. The pub wasn’t even half full since it was a weekday, yet we were turned away. Later, we found out that it was possible to book a table online for the same timeslot. The staff’s attitude was terrible, and overall, it was a frustrating experience. I would give zero stars if I could. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place. DO NOT GO TO THIS PUB

Friday 1st November. My wife & I were staying in the Holiday Inn Express next door for two nights. The hotel is a few miles from central Bristol with limited restaurant choices nearby. Therefore this seemed a good choice for an early dinner on arrival and probably for a repeat visit the next evening after a day in Bristol. We booked for 6.30 pm and arrived a few minutes early. We were quickly shown to our table and our drinks order was taken and served promptly. We ordered our first and main courses and the first course was quickly served and was fine. After waiting for over an hour for our main courses we decided to pay for what we had received and leave. While waiting at the bar to pay the waitress passed by with our main courses. She offered to box them up to take away but as it was nearly 8pm we decided to sit down again and eat them. My wife's fish was cold, gey, dry and inedible. The breadcrumbs on the bottom of my chicken schnitzel were burnt and the chicken dried out. In both cases the fries were cold and inedible. It was obvious that the meals had been plated-up, left to stand on a hot plate and forgotten, probably for the full hour we were waiting. The waitress offered, without me asking, to deduct the price of the main courses from our bill. It was not particularly busy but the staff seemed unable to cope as the couple on the table next to us were also become agitated at the slow service. The following night we went to the Beefeater next to the Premier Inn.

Came to visit this place for the third time, but first time after a few years. Last couple of time we had a great time, but the last visit was quite disappointing. When we came they told us we’ll need to wait for the food for 30 minutes and we said alright. But in reality it took over an hour for the food to come. Everyone liked their food, besides me. I had the pizza there a few years ago and it was one of the best I ever had. But this last visit, the pizza was horrible. Very thin and very dry. Extremely disappointed. The service was awful too. When we complain about the long service, the waiting claimed they he warned us. But he told us 30 minutes and it took over 60. The only good part was the manager that did give us a partial refund and apologised for he very long wait. At least that’s something.

Fantastic service and lovely warm, cosy pub but food was over priced and not as stated on the menu. I ordered the signature burger which should have come with beef brisket and onion rings and it had neither. It cost £19.50 for a burger and fries which was fine, but not as described and certainly not worth £19, will think twice about returning.

Eva and Dylan were amazing! Delicious food

Food was fab, service was quick and friendly from both Dylan and Eva Great little lunch spot and would definitely return

Such a lovey pub, Dylan was so friendly!

The best server is Nathan by miles. Smiley and always happy to help 😀 Will definitely be back to visit again

Really good food and great service. Very friendly and helpful staff. The Ribeye steak was perfect 👌🏻

Had a lovely meal in the Fox den. Food was excellent and service by Nathan was excellent!

Our family visited the Fox Den on Thursday 24th October 2024 for a Birthday celebration. On a very busy evening at the Fox Den , we were warmly greeted by Owen. Owen commented it was lovely to see us again and wished our daughter a Happy Birthday. Owen took our order. He was warm and friendly but very professional and is clearly a skilled and valuable member of the Fox Den team. We had a thoroughly enjoyable family evening being served very efficiently by Owen despite a very busy service due to a Conference gathering. The entire family can’t praise Owen enough who made sure everything went well. We have been served by Owen on previous occasions with the exact same level of Service. We look very much forward to returning to the Fox Den in the very near future.

Had a lovely family at the fox den. Was served by a charming young Irish man called Nathan. Food was above par, and was served in excellent time. Cannot wait to return.

excellent service from nathan. he is always lovely and attentive, happy to help with my allergy. very bubbly young man definitely an asset to the team. food was good aswell, very delicious. would come back again just for the pint ! ! ! !

We decided to go to the Fox Den on a Saturday evening for something to eat and drink. We were not disappointed. We eat out a lot and our food was beautiful. We both had three courses. We agreed the food was the best we had in a very long time. We even went back for Sunday roast the following day which again was outstanding. We received a warm welcome on arrival and didn't have to wait long for our food both days. Would definitely recommend the Fox Den to everyone

We arrived at 5.30 on Sunday wanting food quickly. They gave us a table and we ordered 2 carverys. The food arrived quickly and it was mostly very tasty. We had the pork and it was delicious, as were all the fresh vegetables (cabbage, greens and broccoli) and the gluten free gravy was excellent. The only thing that wasn't so good was the roasted potatoes. For a start they were advertised as being garlicky (no one wants garlic on their roasties) but the main problem was that they were stale, like they had been cooked and left keeping warm for 2 hours. Other than the poor potatoes everything was great.

Food really nice. Bit of a wait for it to arrive

came today for a meal we sent the food back it was cold my wife then chose the soup which was tasteless unfortunately we've booked for Christmas day but no longer

I said it then and there and I say it now: Food and beer is delicious and service is top!

Very good Customer service and great beer

Went for a roast dinner for the first time here and it was perfect, I can’t fault it. We were served by a lovely, friendly guy called Owen who made the visit extremely pleasant. Will definitely be eating there again!

Located 2 minutes walk away from the Holiday Inn Express in Filton, Bristol. I had the prawn cocktail starter and 10oz Ribeye steak.

Nice pub with excellent service. Food was really nice

Food not bad but we will never eat here again not due to food but after leaving a tip of £20 as there were 8 of us. When I got home I saw the restaurant had also added a £27.99 service charge so they were happy to take £47.99 for thr tip disgusting that they do this so will never go there again. Make sure you check your bill properly

Bar staff very good. Had booked a table. Nice environment. Ordered mushrooms and Brie bites for starters, mushrooms amazing but Brie bites were all hollow. No-one checked on us and when lady cleared plates, I explained the Brie bites were hollow with no cheese inside. She said sorry you didn't enjoy it ( I left to show them) shared a pizza which was just ok, not much pepperoni, lot of crust and dry. Side salad was poor, gritty and mostly lettuce stalks. Triple cooked chips dry ( More like oven chips) we had to ask for plates , not a very good experience overall and expensive. Probably won't return.

When it's busy, service can be a bit slow, though pleasingly friendly. The building is in traditional style, though built in relatively recent years. Comfortable and the food is good quality and good value. Not all items on the menu were available, though those that were, were good. If you are new to this restaurant, and its exact location is not on your satnav, you could miss the entrance. I missed it myself and had to go round again. This is because if you are approaching, with the entrance road on your left, there is no visible signage until you are level with it. There is a completely faded-out sign on your right that may have once been an indication. But overall a very good experience.

Ordered two steaks for my wife and I, and a kids meal for my son and the food was fantastic. Would recommend.

Lovely pub, lovely food and great pricing. Stopped for lunch on a Saturday and was perfect. Very child friendly and service was top notch!

Had a great lasagne at the fox den. Jaz gave fantastic service. As a large table they served us really well. Would definitely come again!

Came for a group meal with my friends, tasty food and great atmosphere. Ben was very welcoming!

Been at fox and Den twice over the last couple of months ,food is very good,but expensive. Each time have been told to leave at 10pm hurried out of pub as they want to lock up.This is not right as pay good money to to go this pub.

For a new place its absolutely brilliant, the atmosphere takes me back to the best pubs across the UK and the building just feels homey. The food is top notch, I had the lasagne with a side of chips instead of salad and it went down a treat not a crumb left after I was finished with it. We were served promptly, and our food came out in a timely manner even with a bit of a wait time. Overall 5 out of 5 for everything.

Really hard working staff on visibly busy days, shout out to Jaz, the assistant manager.

Great waiter. Sorry do not know his name 😔. Great service and good interaction. Friendly service and engagement. Well done.

The food was great the staff very helpful. The place was clean and tidy with a relaxed atmosphere. Would recommend The fox Den to family and friends.

Food was okay, service was good! We went for a roast, the potatoes were a little undercooked and under seasoned, but the meat was delicious. Yorkshire pudding tasted like it had freezer burn. But the waiter was friendly and talkative which we liked! Overall a good experience. Signed, The Roast Raters

This place has a really good selections of drinks and the bar area is great if you are looking to just come for a drink. There is a separate restaurant area available if you want to have food.

Really welcoming and friendly staff. Food was lovely. Great pub!

Lovely food and service. We were served by Owen who was lovely, super friendly and always in hand if we needed anything. The fox den has a lovely atmosphere, we will be visiting again.

Great food and atmosphere. Owen took care of us all night, nothing was a problem and he seemed genuinely happy to help and talk to us.

Starter was lukewarm, and service was terribly slow, quality of main was average, eggs hugely overcooked

Avoid. Chain pub that is no better than a Wetherspoons. Exact same lacklustre menu as other Vintage Inns pubs I’ve mistakenly been to. Ordered cauliflower soup which I expected to be creamy and flavourful but was presented with what can only be described as the water some cauliflower had been boiled in. Couldn’t have more than a spoonful and despite complaining to our waitress it remained on our bill.

Owen totally made our dinner a total hit. Friendly, thoughtful and a very good sense of humour. Was speedy with the drinks, double checked with the kitchen so we could all have what we wanted. Food was okay, Owen was better.

Lovely pub. Food a little expensive but good portions. Friendly staff.

Hadn't been to The Fox Den for a few years but made an impromptu visit last Friday evening and we weren't disappointed! We were greeted by Ben, who was friendly and very welcoming. He showed us to our table and took our drinks order immediately; he was attentive and engaging! The waiter who brought our drinks over was very humorous and kept the atmosphere friendly with a great attitude! Ben took our food order and we had enough time to catch up on our chat before our food arrived. Presentation was great and the taste was fresh, hot and delicious! I had the Hunters chicken schnitzel which was great. We also had the Lasagne, which had a lovely side salad and garlic ciabatta to accompany it. The prawns and chorizo starter was plenty, as a light bite! Overall, everything about our visit was fantastic and we'll definitely be back! Ben and the whole team did a great job to ensure we'd happily spread the news that The Fox Den is a place to visit!

Excellent Sunday roast Owen was very kind and helpful the crumble is soooo good

Exceedingly lovely staff. Huge shout out, couldn’t do enough despite being absolutely slammed - 3 front of house staff for that amount of customers is criminal! And it was nice and clean despite being understaffed. Food is as you would expect from this chain.

A group of seven of us had a meal here last night. The food and service were excellent and the atmosphere was great! Thanks for making it such a wonderful night out!

Lovely restaurant!! Great food and the lunch deal is great value for money. Lovely staff too.

Service deserves 10 stars. Food impeccable. You should come here.

Nice, tasty food. Veg slightly hard.

Owen was fantastic, he is a ball of energy and is so lovely whenever we come in. Food is fantastic and we go almost every Sunday for a roast. You get so much food.

We came for a family birthday dinner. The food was nice. There was a good atmosphere. I would like to come again .

Always friendly staff and excellent atmosphere. Gill looked after our whole family including our 4 legged friend on numerous occasions. Highly recommended.

Gang of us stopped for a drink Ended up with a full night pub food was good and staff was helpful and friendly Will be back for a full scale night out again

Super friendly atmosphere, nice beer, quality food, would highly recommend. 👍

Lovely pub, always happy to see us and treats our dog like royalty. Especially good service from Jill and Laura who have been very welcoming.

Great experience from start to finish. All staff friendly and fantastic food. Best pub visit for a long time.

Nice place. Good outside seating. Good food.

Owen was a superb waiter went above and beyond made us feel very welcome

Took my mum and partner our for Sunday lunch , my mum has arthritis and he made sure she ok he was so friendly and my mum wanted to keep him home 100% the best waiter we have come accross

Owen gave friendly excellent service

We had a wonderful day spent at the fox den. We had a group of 5adults and a child, and it was very well catered for our group. The overall service was great. Owen looked after us so well, he was very attentive, had a fantastic knowledge of the allergen menu which really put my mind at rest as myself and 1 other are gluten free and was so welcoming. Tasty food and a calm comfy environment.

The meal was delicious, and the general mood of the place was welcoming and calm. But the highlight of the evening was the waiter Owen - who was humerous and attentive, made the experience all the more better. Thank you for a great time 👍

Great service by Owen. Will return.

Under new management & the food has been the best its ever been!

Foxden stoke gifford gone down in our opinion, meal was nice enough but no roast carrots as stated on menu, told waitress but they never appeared, no one asked if meal was ok or came round to ask if we wanted more drinks or a dessert and they weren't busy, customer service sadly lacking and it used to be excellent such ashame

Ordered a Duck and Hoisin Pizza and I got a plate full of cheese, very little duck and absolutely tasteless. I was asked whilst paying the bill if everything was ok, I explained that I wasn't happy and told them the problem. They said they would feed back to the kitchen.

Shocking customer service, dirty plates on tables. Wouldn’t bother again!

We had a very tasty Sunday roast at The Fox Den. The turkey was excellent and the vegetable sides very generous. Owen served us and was excellent. He was attentive, friendly and helpful throughout, checking to make sure that we were enjoying our meal and had everything we needed. He is a real asset to your brand.

A great meal with excellent service from Owen. He was attentive, personable and good humoured. 10/10 for service . A wonderful Sunday roast, really not worth cooking at home wen you can eat out this well.

Fabulous dinner. Good dinner. Clean restaurant, great sausages and ice lollies… this is the review by our four year old. First time visiting and we would return. The food is superb but the show stopper is the attention to detail from our server Owen! He is super and a real treasure to the restaurant. We visited as a family with two young children and he made our experience! Owen goes above and beyond with all the customers. He paid attention to our baby and helped us when juggling two young kids. Definitely senior/management material!!

Sunday lunch was spot on good choice of meats very tasty, service was good and efficient served by Owen who was very helpful . Good dessert menu as well

Nice homely pub reasurant, well priced and friendly staff. Only bad point portions quite small.

Lovely setting, and as always great food. Owen, looked after us, a table of 10. He was friendly, professional, approachable and bought out two candles with the deserts for my Aunty and Uncle’s birthday, which was a nice and thoughtful touch. Would definitely recommend for Lunch or an evening meal. We all really enjoyed ourselves. So a big thank you.

Not Coeliac friendly in the slightest, %99 of the food is breaded or bread related.

Despite being short notice The Fox Den was able to cater for our party of 10. The staff were very friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The food was great, cooked to perfection and we were able to take our time, which was a pleasant change from some places. We will definitely be returning for more and recommending The Fox Den to our friends.

Popped in for lunch after being turned away by another pub, these guys saved the day. Great service and even under pressure they clearly loved their jobs. Owen is a legend

Owen was fantastic. Very friendly did a great job recommending food and drinks. The fish and chips was the best I have ever had

Lovely pub, with great drinks and food. However a lil slow on the service, possibly cause they were understaffed. They told us we could not order food. However we saw others having their meals and when I placed a snack order thru my phone it went thru and they brought it. So they basically lied 🤣🤣

Nice pub with good selection of drinks,and pleasant garden plus parking. Only here for drinks as staying in the Holiday Inn express next door.

Food and environment were great! Owen was an absolutely amazing waiter and made our experience even better (he also had some great drink recommendations). For having a table of 6, food and drinks were brought out fairly quickly!

Very pleasant dinner in the dining room area. Served by Owen who was excellent - friendly, helpful and efficient. The curry was very tasty and the mini creme brulee and coffee made a nice light dessert. Will definitely be back.

The food was well cooked and served quickly, the desert Eaton mess was expensive for what it was but was refreshing.

Nice atmosphere and local pub feel. However, it's not very good value for money - the prices are pretty high for the quality of food, and waiter kept trying to upsell too.

Owen was brilliant, so attentive and friendly. He is incredibly funny and an asset to the restaurant

Served by Owen. Makes amazing cocktails and great laugh. Would deffo come back.

Great pub food! Our server Owen was brilliant - entertaining and attentive!

We just had a lovely meal at the Fox Den. The food was great but the service was exceptional. Our waiter, Owen, was brilliant. He was good humoured, attentive and really added so much to the experience.

Amazing service with our waiter Owen really funny and friendly ! Food was so good!

Once all again our waitress Owen was a great and friendly server. Makes us feel at home. Great food and atmosphere

Owen was such a great server. Friendly and made good suggestion. Took really good care of us.

Great food; big portion sizes at good prices.

We were welcomed quickly and courteously upon our arrival, shown to our table and provided with menus. The waiting staff were friendly and efficient in taking our orders for drink and food. The food was amazing!! Wonderful flavours, beautifully cooked and plenty of it. The atmosphere was very cosy and comfortable. We felt relaxed and were in no rush to leave. The toilets were clean, tidy and well-stocked. We would definitely return and absolutely recommend you to all.
