My husband had a lovely meal in September with our sons and their families and raved about it (sadly I was poorly). on a visit to Dunwich heath and beach we then called and booked a table for 4.30pm. The greeting was lovely what a fab menu I chose Fish pie and my husband had belly pork, both dishes were amazingly good portions and delicious… we both had pud of cheesecake and crumble which again were a good size and delicious, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough and can’t wait to eat there again when we are in the area. Brilliant service

A great local pub with a very pleasant staff. We ate here whilst staying nearby and had a very nice meal at a reasonable price. The staff were very welcoming and efficient even though the pub was packed as it was a quiz night. Their fish pie was amazing.

We received a warm welcome on arrival at this cosy village pub. We liked the sound of the menu, and as we were eating a bit later, the extended food serving hours worked well for us. Portions were generous and good value. We had fish pie (delicious, real conforting food, roast carrots were really good).and chicken burger (very good with added bacon, nice fries, and coleslaw which was overall ok, although it was heavy on the raw onion, not to everyones taste!) . The pudding menu looked good, but we just couldn't squeeze in. Some nice local beers to accompany. We will definitely return!

What a delicious meal we both enjoyed in this charming pub/restaurant today The staff were charming, offering to bring a water bowl for my dog, plus two biscuits so he was happy I ordered the crispy noodles with crispy pork belly, it was sublime , hubby had a burger which he stated was very good, we shared a sticky toffee pudding with custard Great value, memorable meal Definitely give it a visit if you’re looking for a place to eat when you’re in the area

We were greeted on our arrival and shown to our table . The staff were welcoming and polite. They were able to provide guidance on an intolerance and provide an alternative to an item , this was done without any fuss at all. The meals were very tasty and good portions. Would be very happy to return.

We were a group of 4 staying locally. We had cycled in to Southwold and popped in to the Fox Inn on the way back hoping to get an evening meal. We hadn’t booked as we didn’t know what time we would arrive back. The pub was completely full so we ordered a drink and had to sit outside even though it was raining. We had resigned ourselves to cheese and biscuits when we got back to our accommodation but the bar staff had remembered us and came out to let us know they now had a table for us. There was also a group of six who were waiting to see if they could have a table too. The staff were so friendly and thoughtful- nothing was too much trouble. The food was fabulous too. Thank you for looking after us so well - would definitely recommend this pub/restaurant to anyone!!

We decided to try the Fox Inn while staying nearby. It was easy to find and clearly a popular pub (we went on a Wednesday evening) as parking was a little tricky. Walking in we were met by a very pleasant lady who explained that all the inside tables were reserved but we were welcome to sit outside. The staff were generally attentive and helpful, and our dog was made welcome too. We started with a simple, but tasty and well-presented olives and bread sharing plate. Our mains were sea bass, which was excellent, and the day’s special. This was a spiced chicken fillet burger which was also excellent. We would happily go back if we were in the area again.

We had had a day at the beach for my partners birthday- as tradition we went to a pub in Walberswick hoping to have dinner but were pretty horrified with the lack of service. On our way home we noticed a sign for the Fox Inn and decided to swing in! We could not have been more pleased- the service was second to none, the food was amazing, and nice ales on offer. A hidden gem, we shall be returning!

Lovely spot in the Suffolk countryside. Very popular with locals and visitors on holiday. The staff were very lovely and found us a table inside at short notice.

The Fox Inn is a very cosy, welcoming Inn. We had the most tastiest roast here today. The food was piping hot when it arrived. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. There’s seating inside & out. Shame the sun wasn’t out but that’s the only negative. We all will be returning very soon and looking forward to it too.

Happened upon a sign on the A12 boasting great homemade food served all day. As we’d been let down by other pubs in the area we thought we’d give them a go. Welcoming and friendly staff and a menu offering starters, nibbles and mains awaited and we weren’t disappointed. Generous portions at reasonable prices. The Fox has kitted itself out well for COVID precautions and have extended their outside seating and dining area to reflect this with both covered and open spaces. Enjoyed a grilled chicken and avocado burger with chunky chips and a homemade slaw; honey mustard sausages; halloumi fries; squid and a ploughman’s too. Highly recommend.

There were quite a few people eating outside even in the recent actic conditions we have been experiencing.Excellent staff and Management. Very friendly establishment. Well kept beers Wines and Spirits.My only criticism is the price of the drinks on offer are very expensive compared to other establishment in the area, but worth paying if you are there for a meal as this is probably the best food led pub in the area.

We have had takeaways during Lockdown and have never been disappointed so thought we would try a visit. Rang to book very friendly and helpful, apologising for not being able to accommodate us in the covered area but said if that changed they would slot us in. Arrived and shown to a table with a huge umbrella so could easily shelter from any rain. The weather was on our side though. Amazing food, friendly helpful knowledgeable staff. The lady who served our table was so lovely with our fidgety 6 year old taking time to talk to her which helped us feel relaxed. Enjoyed our first evening out in as long as we could remember and will definitely be back.

We collected 4 amazing Mothers Day roasts from here yesterday. It was so nice for a local pub to be offering a set menu for mothers day.We all had roast beef and it was cooked lovely. The honeycomb cheesecake was mouth watering!!Having a meal from a local pub made Mothers Day feel special, which could of been hard to achieve when in a lockdown.We will be returning as we have been recommended to try their burgers. They certainly look good!Thank you for offering a food service whilst in a lockdown, we all definitely appreciated it :)

We booked for a family of 4 in half term. We turned up an hour early (on the off-chance) as it was on our way back - whilst our table wasn't ready, the staff found somewhere for us to grab a drink, and managed to get us seated early.The food was decent - couple of blemishes - mash not great, and burger buns burnt, but the leek and potato soup was excellent, as was the fish and chips - overall the food was decent quality and good value, and the service was welcoming and friendly. Would definitely visit again.

Lovley place and food really good staff and owners very welcomeing although Manager can be a little cold at times.This place has become very popular due to its food and warm welcome, well from most anyway. Obviously Pubs these Days as we all could never survive these Days on Wet Sales and this must be appreciated. However when you go in to a pub especially early doors and enjoying a very well kept point and have to move two or three times to accommodate dinners, you do feel uncomfortable and that perhaps you should not be there. Unfortunately with the winter being here you don't have the option to sit outside and with the limited space inside this establishment and the well deserved reputation for thier food, things can only get worse for the customer that just wants a quite beer without being moved from table to table evey few minuets, worth a visit for the odd beer, but be warned!!

Had the fish and chips. A whopper of a haddock is placed in front of me. To die for. Must have been caught a minute before, so fresh, flakey, moist. I thought... “how can this get better” ... then I had a chip. The chip would’ve brought a tear to Heston Blumenthal’s eye. Triple cooked chips, more like quadruple cooked chips... and to perfection too. Then I had a bit of chip, a bit of fish, a bit of mushy pea and a bit of tartare sauce on one fork. GAME CHANGER.

My earlier review of this pub seems to have dissappeared so here goes again. We had booked a table for 8pm on a very wet evening. Firstly, my beer was "off". This was exchanged but then the food arrived. My wife had the house special, a rump steak (£20) and I had fish and chips. The steak had to returned to the kitchen as it wasn't cooked to our liking and the fish and chips were very greasyand looked like they had been reheated , certainly not freshly cooked. We should have left then but it was getting late and pouring with rain and we were hungry. We ate what we could and was offered one free desert as compensation. We can't understand how this pub had so many good reviews and even more surprised to find our review was not published.

On our 2nd and final night in Suffolk, we had so many pubs to choose from for a meal, and as it happens, we only ended up visiting here because it was the first one to answer the phone from the shortlisted restaurants we came up with. Luck was on our side for sure. The pub itself is a lovely quaint building with really nice decor. The staff were all polite and attentive (mainly the young chap), and the food came out in good time. The menu felt a bit different to other places somehow with perhaps a little less choice than other place too, BUT there was still enough to keep us happy and pick something. Without detailing all of the dishes we had, the food was delicious the portions were spot on -neither too big or too small. I had the beef burger and it was sublime. Really well constructed. Was lovely to see it so busy and it really added to the atmosphere. Thanks so much for a great evening!!

Fantastic pub, New owners took over in June, although you wouldn't notice. I don't know if the Current Management have been in this line of business before, but they certainly know what they are doing.Even during these very uncertain times they have managed to turn this lovely village Establishment around. No Mean Feat during these times.All running very smoothly although behind the scene's the team probably would not agree, but as professionals they are certainly not letting that show!! I was in the licensing trade for 18 years, now retired. I have also lived in this area for for the same number of years. I have seen good licensees come and go and many close down, i hope this will not happen to the Fox and its New Team.If you want to see how a good Village Pub is successfully run and operated, you need look no further. Food excellent, Beer top very good and well kept, CAMRAMEMBERS please note!The Fox has very quickly become my first choice when it comes to spending my money on beer etc and having had my first meal there with my wife it will no doubt be our regular place to eat. Service and the whole team, cant do enough for the customer.I am currently writing a book about the industry on how it has changed over the years the effect of Big Breweries on the small individual operation.

This is not an a la carte menu - this is very simple pub grub, mostly executed really well. The thing that makes the Fox such a great place to visit is the staff. From a wonderful initial welcome through to the check back and general friendliness and obvious cleaning procedures in the wake of COVID19, this little free house is working flat out to deliver the best experience they can right now. Very enjoyable, look forward to returning and definitely one to put on your ‘must visit’ list for a chilled out burger and a couple of beers. Thanks, Fox!

Dropped by as we saw the signpost off the A12. We ordered fish and chips and the chicken / bacon brioche. My partner queried the price when he paid due to the current drop in vat but was told there isn't any price reduction. No vat receipt was offered. Food arrived and the landlady came to check all ok, I queried the vat issue and she said (quite rudely) that he was under no obligation to pass the savings on to customers. We're on a day out so I don't really want a debate in the pub garden. They don't HAVE to pass on the savings but isn't it a pity to take that attitude when we are all trying to support the local businesses AND get people back out as customers. My brioche bun was burnt, as was the bacon and our triple cooked chips had seen way more than 3 rounds in the fryer I think. Perhaps they were just having a bad day but we wouldn't recommend or return.

Caravanning at Priory Farm Darsham and as we drove to site on Saturday morning noticed that the local pub was open and busy, what a great sight. Still a little apprehensive of getting ‘out and about again’ we decided to walk up to The Fox Inn for lunch today. It was a lovely surprise, a warm welcome with all the relevant precautions in place. Got our drinks and ordered our lunch, fish finger brioche bun and salad. Wow! Best fish fingers ever, sorry Capt Birdseye, with a lovely salad.If you are in the area then we can thoroughly recommend a visit. Well done The Fox Inn.

We were staying at Mill Hill Campsite this weekend. The Fox is the closest pub and there is a lovely safe walking circuit through the countryside which took us about 15 minutes. There is a lot of outside seating and the staff are very friendly. The food was excellent and the Covid measures they have in place are easy to follow and it feels like a safe place to be.We had a couple of great visits on our weekend away and would highly recommend. We couldn’t find a menu online but phoned before hand and the menu was told to us over the phone.

Just reopened tonight and with new a new pub landlord. Even with some c-19 restriction, the service was great, friendly and organised. I ate a bowl of chips only, but the food looked very good. A friend ate the burger and another fish and chips and said it was v good.

Visited the Fox 🦊 inn for an evening meal. This inn is an old traditional pub. Very old and characteristic roaring fire and quirky. Great home made food on daily blackboard. Would advise to book. Will go back again when in area.

Very pleased with an evening meal, having booked a few hours earlier from a nearby B&B.Small, cosy very traditional pub, landlady running the bar, and we believe husband is the chef? Our meal was excellent value, good quaily food, and presented with care, which showed. Could have been home cooked (by someone who can cook, not reheat!)The menu was quite varied for a small pub, again showing some thought, and the biggest problem was choosing which of the several temptations to go for! We look forward to a return visit.

Had a nice walk to the pub from the campsite. Found out it doesn’t open Monday’s. Walked back. Think we’ve got some sausages in the ‘van :)

What a great pub. We were staying on a nearby campsite and walked to the nearest pub , which is this fantastic Fox Inn. Really friendly staff and patrons . Decided to have dinner here. Good choice on the menu. My husband had prawn cocktail followed by fish and chips. I had salt and pepper squid followed by steak and kidney pudding. Really speedy service , food was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The meal couldn’t be faulted and we would have tried their desserts but just too full ! It’s rare to find a proper pub serving such good ‘home cooked ‘ food. Well done to the team at the Fox Inn . You should be very proud.

We stayed in nearby Darsham Old Hall in May this year and had dinner at the Fox Inn on two occasions. We have also dined there in the past when on holiday in Suffolk. We really like this pub. It may be small and unpretentious but is all the better for it. It really does feel like a genuine local pub used by local people as well as holidaymakers. We have thoroughly enjoyed all our meals here. Everything we have eaten has been cooked to perfection using high quality ingredients and we have always been made to feel that our custom is genuinely appreciated. Hopefully this welcoming little pub continues to thrive for many years to come.

Great home cooked food, in a lovely atmosphere and warm welcome. Clearly a favourite with the locals. Value for money and car park available.

A small pub with a big heart. A very warm welcome from Nell and the blazing log fire on a cold night with a lazy wind. There may only be about 8 tables here but there is plenty of dining space and the food is excellent. I had my favourite steak and kidney pudding with a great selection of lively fresh vegetables and new potatoes. The white bait to start was very tasty and fresh. The ale (Adnan’s best) was beautifully kept and a great compliment to the meal. To finish I had a nice bowl of rum and raisin ice cream and passion fruit sorbet. My only observation would be that the coffee was a little strong. A tasty meal and a lovely evening. We will be back.

Went for lunch with a party of seven. The food was delicious as always and the service first rate. The chicken tikka curry is simply out of this world a delight on the palate. A very nice warm cosy welcoming place to eat and or drink

Passing the pretty pub and decided to pop in for food as we were travelling home after visiting family-we ended up staying the night! The triple roast dinner was excellent and the hotel rooms were clean and tidy too. We had our dog with us and he was also made very welcome! Would definitely stay again in the future.

Been to the pub a couple of times but it was closed as not open on Mon or Tues. We decided to go tonight and it was worth the wait food was beautiful, friendly landlords and loved the dog.

Went for an evening meal one night and ended going back for a second time as the food was cooked and served as it should be, would recommend this as a small friendly pub.

This little pub is not part of a big chain where everything is done within company rules and decor. This is a traditional pub in a small village, no gaming machines, big screen sports or rowdy customers

This is a super little pub for good, honest home cooking! Clearly a favourite with the locals, it has a simple decor , but is dog-friendly and serves generous portions of great food. We had local pork steak in cider and steak, ale and mushroom pudding that was one of the most delicious I have ever had in a pub. It reminded me of the ones my grandmother used to make! And do find room to try the Baileys and cream cheese cake for dessert. Heaven on a plate!

Splendid Sunday roast beef lunch followed by rhubarb and blueberry crumble with cream! Quality and quantity! Good ale and friendly accommodating staff in a busy but well run restaurant pub! Will be back, hopefully!

It's a dog friendly pub/restaurant which was good for us as we had our pooch with us that day. There were quite a few choices on a blackboard menu and the restaurant was quite busy which appeared to be a good sign but we were disappointed with the main meal of sirloin steaks. The steaks were certainly not hung for a decent amount of time which would account for them being quite tough and grisly. Very poor as were the greasy onion rings. A good steak meal should be delicious with a thick steak, some interesting vegetables instead of just peas, mushrooms of a reasonable size and not tiny little things with no flavour. Sorry to have to be negative but it was so disappointing. I would rather pay more and get a decent steak. Service was very good and the young man who served us was very pleasant.

Lovely meal, friendly staff. Old style pub with lovely food. Stayed in the Garden Room and was ideal for us to have a pub next door that serves perfect food.

No atmosphere, felt like had to sit in silence with staff staring, food was average, our children wanted to leave ASAP. Staff really unwelcoming and made everyone feel uncomfortable.

Lovely pub with lovely staff and lovely food! What more can I say. The two of us, plus our 2 dogs, were welcomed to the pub, where we enjoyed good locals beers and excellent home cooked food. Wish we lived nearer. Well done , a proper pub!

Sorry to say it was the worst breakfast I've had in the cafe. But if I pay £15.10 for coffee and full English I expect the highest standards. Bacan was so bad I couldn't even eat it. The picture says it all. Who would serve a customer food that looks like that. Lovely staff but all they did was apologised for the drop in standards.

We always come for a walk to the dip when visiting family , a great spot to sit and have coffee and cake and look out to sea , today I had one of the homemade cheese scones it was one of the best I have ever eaten , whatever the weather always a great establishment for a warm welcome and delicious fair, great ice creams in the summer and hot chocolate in the winter .
