We popped in today for lunch I had liver and onions you could tell it was home made and tasted fantastic apart from a few bits witch had been overdone in the microwave but as size was more than adequate the dog had a extra treat my daughter had cheese and broccoli in cheese sauce be warned loads of garlic in it and very watery so she was not impressed but as usual would not let me complain I will have to show them how to make a proper sauce like my mum did top tip feta turns to liquid when heated still love the pub and wouldn't put me of going again staff very friendly and helpful even bought me a stake knife so I could cut into my liver

I recently visited The Fox in Oswestry and had a truly lovely experience. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is old yet cozy, making it the perfect spot to unwind. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring that every guest felt special. I particularly enjoyed the IPA, which was perfectly balanced and refreshing. We both had a roast lamb dinner my wife had the small portion and I had a large portion and OMG it was absolutely beautiful. The music added to the ambiance without being overpowering, allowing for easy conversation. Whether you're looking for a place to catch up with friends or enjoy a quiet evening alone, The Fox is the perfect choice. Overall The Fox exceeded my expectations. I can't wait to return and try more of their unique offerings. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lovely bar experience with a fantastic chef becausethey are good! Thank-you All at The Fox

Sorry but the food and drink were terrible. Far too fatty. I had fish and chips large (2 big pieces of battered fish) but drowning in fat!! The Ale tasted off or something not right with it. It’s a shame because the staff were lovely and accommodating.

What an excellent atmospheric traditional pub. Really friendly and helpful staff and customers. We decided to have traditional pub food. I had lovely liver onions and bacon with mash and mixed vevetables. My friend had jacket potato tuna and salad. Both ample portions for hungry people. We were made so welcome must go again in the future!

Nipped in for a quick drink, then decided To go back for another drink and food, damn good choice. Love Joules beer and pubs and The Fox does not disappoint. It is a proper old style pub with gags of charm and character. Staff were more than friendly and the food was some of the best pub grub we have had in ages. There was a lot of food for what you pay for, the cook did tell me that they don't do small portions. Only downside was that the food was piping hot and had to wait to eat it 😆🙄. Well worth waiting, that is no bad thing. Great atmosphere and music and listening to some of the regulars talking. Brilliant pub🍻👍

The very nice landlord graciously allowed us to take our very wet dog inside where we were welcomed to hot tea and hot chocolate. The chef was on holiday but he even offered that we could buy the food from Gregs and bring it back to his pub to eat it. Very nice gesture and kept us out of the rain today. Thankyou for your hospitality

Very small but extremely characteristic pub. It is in a building dating back to the end of the 15th - beginning of the 16th century where you can really breathe the air of an English pub. Inside, customers "armed" with guitars take turns playing and singing...obviously "submerged" by rivers of beer

Called in for a late lunch and we definitely chose the best pub. Very friendly bar staff helpful and happy always a bonus. Great choice of beers from the Joules brewery plus others. Food menu offers a roast dinner every day Wednesday to Sunday if I remember correctly. We had a scampi and a double cheeseburger both with fabulous home made perfectly cooked chips, veg and salad too. Easily the best cheeseburger I've had in a pub for a long time. Scampi was a generous portion and very nice too. Unbelievable prices burger £7 scampi around the same. Everything on the menu was good value and from what we saw all looked delicious. After eating we sat in the lovely covered patio area which is clearly equipped for live entertainment. We're definitely going to return to check that out. Great to find a real pub with a great atmosphere.

Brilliant pub. We found ourselves in Oswestry, hungry and outside the Fox and decided to go in. Great decision. Such a friendly pub, great service and exceptional value home made food. One of us is in a wheelchair and the customers were quick to help us in and get settled. If you're looking for a designer pub with lots of books on shelves it's the wrong pub. If you want a pub with a great atmosphere, character, friendly staff, excellent beer and food then your in the right place. We'll certainly be back.

If you want a pint during lock down then you can do here as they are still serving alcohol even though you are not allowed to. Just knock on the door and they will let you in. I have witnessed this countless times walking past. I am sick of selfish people who are willing to put people's lives at risk because they are selfish. I will be ringing the police if I see you do this one more time. You have been warned. I hope you see the error of your ways. If not be prepared for a visit from the police. Selfish tw*ts.

Great landlord and landlady, friendly staff and a roaring fire on a cold day was just perfect, thanks to you all at The Fox Inn! Definitely has become our local now and what a wonderful listed building it is, full of character especially on the inside and the outside is pretty special too. A lovely beer garden outside will be a great place to relax and enjoy a fantastic drink in spring or summer!
