We had our Christmas lunch here in 2022 and the food was excellent. However, we went today and had the Christmas menu, and the food was poor. The roast turkey dinner had no pigs in blankets, parsnips or stuffing! And the Christmas pudding was inedible - too nutty. The staff were polite but the service was extremely slow.

This amazing pub, restaurant and B&B was a bit of an accidental find. We were looking for somewhere to stay close to my extended family in Singleton. Turns out The Fox was a pub my father use to drink in in the 1930s. So what about this amazing establishment. A lovely well presented building full of unadulterated charm. From the bar to the restaurant and rooms its very hard to be critical. Food was awesome well done chef. Staff polite, helpful and great service. It will be a regular place we will be staying going forward. Well done team Fox.

Excellent menu with good variety and well-cooked, tasty food. Barnsley chop was tender and nicely tinged pink. Vegetables had a really pleasing fresh crunch to them. The highlight was the lengths they went to to accommodate my wife's dietary needs. Cooking her one of the best meals she's eaten in a pub for a long time! Ales were good too.

We were so looking forward to a fabulous Sunday lunch. We’ve not been here before. The pub is extremely cosy and the staff were lovely and helpful and fitted us in as we hadn’t booked. I decided on the roast beef and my husband had the roast pork belly. Unfortunately, we were both disappointed. My husband’s roast pork belly was pulled pork, very wet and mushy and my roast beef was quite fatty. Everything was so piled up on top of each other and drowned with a ‘casserole’ like gravy, you couldn’t taste the other aspects of the dish, eg cauliflower cheese, honey roasted carrot/ parsnip. The Yorkshire pudding ( my favourite item usually) I left half. It just tasted bland and soggy, the whole meal, apart from the potato’s which were too firm in the middle. The portions were extremely generous but I’d rather have less and be able to taste the different flavours and textures of each item , the honey, the cheese, the crunch of a crispy fluffy potato and Yorkshire pud. Maybe the gravy could be offered in a gravy boat so then each individual can choose how much and where they want it? Sorry to leave a disappointing review I was just expecting more flavour for our bucks!

We hadn't been to the Fox since we moved away 22 years ago. But it was as if nothing has changed. The atmosphere was buzzing, the staff were very friendly, the beer was good and the food was great. The Guinea Fowl with chanterelle mushrooms was my wife's best meal of the holiday I had a ginormous pork chop which was very good. Well recommended but you need to book.

I have limited time in England unfortunately, but I looked at a few websites to see about the best options for a decent pub lunch in or near W Sussex. The FgF was recommended by many. The setting is quiet but there were plenty of people dining so parking requires flexibility. The local brew The Fox, was a good pint and not high alc 3:8%. This was a Saturday for lunch. The menu was varied and had lots of options for the usual pub fare as well as more adventurous stuff. I had a lovely soup of wild mushrooms followed by Guinea Fowl with mushrooms and, I think, dauphinoise potatoes. Both courses were excellent. Home made pistachio ice cream was probably unnecessary on my part, but you only live once. Ren was serving me at my table and was very pleasant and attentive. The wine list was also quite varied - perhaps on the expensive side. I would definitely visit again..

A treat for my birthday. Ashamed to say the last time I was here was for my 30th birthday. I’m 59 today. We had the gammon wrap and a burger. Obviously sitting in the garden the views are great but the service and food far outweighed the view. We sat on table 401 so could hear the staff talking ensuring not only the customers were happy but so were the staff. Won’t leave it so long next time. Planning on Sunday lunch soon.

Great venue and fantastic staff. Food was let down by the chips which are hard and not pleasant. They need to either be cut thicker or cooked less. The crushed minted peas are not crushed but served swimming in water which is odd. The rest of the food was good and the experience overall was okay but could be so much better

Met up with family for Sunday lunch, opted for the beetroot & mushroom wellington roast. Appalled with the meal, the wellington was just whole beetroot wrapped in over cooked pastry , hard like cardboard, not a sign of any mushrooms. Hardly any vegetables, half a carrot mixed with tough cabbage. You don’t get served what it says on menu. Won’t be returning, it’s such a shame as it used to be a great food pub.

Came here for a birthday lunch with a friend. Beautiful pub, gorgeous surroundings, delicious food! I had the fish and chips which I can say were the best I’ve eaten for many years, thin crispy batter, flaky fish and perfectly cooked chips. As it was Goodwood week, it was very busy but the staff were very organised and so pleasant, we got our drinks quickly and didn’t have to wait too long for the food which was piping hot. Will be returning very soon!

We were travelling from Poole to East Grinstead and needed lunch somewhere, so we booked The Fox. We had no idea what to expect, so it was a surprise to find a pub that does really good food- much, much better than your average pub. I had herb crusted cod with polenta and my wife had Brie and garlic risotto with a glass of French Chardonnay; all delicious. I would highly recommend this pub to one and all.

We visited the Fox Goes Free as we’ve always had fantastic meals here in the past. Staff were attentive and helpful as they have been previously. Starters were nice, so far so good. However the main courses were a different matter. We had a burger, steak and fish and chips, they were a huge let down. The burger was burnt, the bun soggy and the chips were cold and chewy. Fish and chips were bland and tasteless and the chips again cold and chewy. The steak was very fatty and the chips cold. We didn’t complain as I’m not good with confrontation and the food was just about edible although unpleasantly so. The pub was very empty for a Saturday night which surprised me as it always used to be packed. I don’t know what’s happened, if they’ve changed hands or got a new chef but whatever it is please go back to before. If the pub is half empty and they can’t manage to cook tasty, un burnt, hot food it is unlikely it’ll improve. Doubt we’ll return or recommend it to friends and family again. Such a disappointment. Such a shame.

The Fox Goes Free has always been our failsafe meal out as a family or with friends. It has always been my favourite pub. However, the meal I had with my family this evening was very disappointing. We had to wait an hour for our main course which was mediocre. My son’s burger was burnt and his chips were soggy. I had to ask the waitress 3 times for a glass of wine but she was too busy flirting with her colleague to remember it. Service was terrible, food average. No more chocolates with the bill either! No one apologised for the delay in the food.. nothing. I always recommended this pub to friends and family and colleagues but I no longer can. So sad, so disappointing.

What a fab pub for a casual, but utterly delicious meal out! My partner and I needed somewhere to eat after a day of travel for a potential business meeting, and The Fox Goes Free were so accommodating last minute. We ended up having a spontaneous 3 course meal because the menu looked amazing, and it did not disappoint! Friendly service and a warm atmosphere - would highly recommend and would definitely go back if we venture this way again. Thank you for a brilliant pause in a busy end of half term weekend. :)

Terrible. There are no other words to describe this place. The food was disgusting and it is astonishing that the management allow it to be served to paying customers. There are no excuses for rubbish to be given to people paying (in this case) way over the top prices. I felt cheated but because I was with others at the time it would have been embarrassing to have said as much. I strongly advise against visiting this establishment. It was at sometime in the past a good place but not anymore.

Upon arrival I felt the staff, apart from our lovely waiter and a young gent who appeared not to be on duty at the time, were hostile and unwelcoming. Announcing we were here for our meal (in about an hour) we were told that we...

Our first time in this beautiful area , our meals at the pub were delicious we had lunch and dinner here, very relaxing and just what we thought an English pub would be. Great selection of food and good service. Thoroughly recommend this pub.

Living in Hampshire, we are always on the lookout for good pub restaurants that are no too fat away. The Fox Goes Free was recommended to us by friends and family, so we decided to take the 35 minute drive on a beautiful sunny day...

Wanted somewhere for a meal after driving all day at Goodwood. Chose The Fox Goes Free as opposed to The Partridge, Singleton or The White House, Chilgrove because we liked the look of the menu. We both chose rib eye steak but sadly both steaks...

My husband and I enjoyed a Christmas lunch here and it was excellent - the service was great, the restaurant was decorated very festively and the food was good for a pub Christmas lunch. Definitely recommend

What a fantastic place! Location, food, friendly atmosphere. Couldn’t ask for more. The food was delicious. There was a wedding party and the pub garden was full but the service was swift and organised. Will definitely be returning. Dog friendly too! A lovely evening.

What a wonderful pub! Stayed here because we were going to a wedding nearby. The staff were so friendly and the garden is lovely with amazing views. If I lived nearby I would make it my local.

We went to the Potager restaurant last night. It was Locals Night. The menu was imaginative and the food delicious and well presented. The atmosphere and service was dood too. The Locals Night is excellent value and we would highly recommend

Chef Ravi rose magnificently to the curry challenge! I managed to down about half my venison and prawn curries, served with rice and condiments, but luckily my companion finished his grilled skewer and demolished the rest. Terrific to have authentic Indian food available in Graffham (on special request). Bravo to the the White Horse for extending its excellent range.

My wife’s aunt and cousin enthused about this pub so we decided to have lunch with them on a Thursday in November. The pub is signposted from the main road and is down a narrow lane to Chidham with passing places at intervals. The car park at the back is not so large so many visitors seem to park in the village. Virtually every table was taken which is always a good sign for mid week dining. The four of us had a variety off of dishes and my seafood tagliatelle was delicious. We were very impressed with the speed of service from the two lovely ladies and lively atmosphere of the pub. The portions are quite large so if you have a smaller appetite we would recommend their small portion menu. My wife’s cousin recommended the mussels which were not on the menu the day we visited so we must return to try them. A very enjoyable lunch catching up with old friends too.

Visited here for afternoon tea. Welcome was ok, but then we waited for a while to see if there was a free table. Bizarrely no one else was in the cafe and the upstairs service where we were seated was almost unfriendly and you felt you were in the way. When we asked for a spoon for our tea we were greeted with a huff and puff… Gets good reviews elsewhere, but sadly not from us..

So disappointed by this place . First visit and won’t be returning! Ordered Avo on sourdough with poached eggs . Asked for the eggs to be well done . It wasn’t sourdough but cheap white bread . Eggs were runny so asked them to redo . 2nd attempt the eggs were still runny so my partner ate it . Large coffees ordered and just a normal sized cheap mug and not very hot . £17 totally wasted . We also ordered a croissant which was the only thing acceptable. Customer service - zero! Young staff who don’t care , smile or make u feel welcome . They need training asap or replacing . Us customers pay their wages - at least earn if . Doesn’t cost anything to be helpful or to smile . Will NOT be returning .
