What a fantastic little pub. Finding this place made our weekend trip away. Phil and Bev run an amazing pub. There are not many true, traditional pubs around but this one is fantastic. We were made very welcome from first stepping in. Fabulous atmosphere. Clean. Fantastic pub food at very good prices. Watched Wales v Scotland Rugby match there with very friendly people and felt so much at home. Wish they would come run a pub like this near us. Cannot recommend this pub highly enough. Will definitely visit again if we are in the area in the future. Thank you for a fantastic time.

Attended the evenings full of meat raffles and quiz nights, all staff are welcoming and the food is spot on. Always friendly services and the pub is always clean to a high standard. Since Bev & Phil have taken over its a true family pub. Its been welcoming and I can say its actually a drug free zone, the toilets are perfect and clean to.

We visited Gosport for the first time and thought what a lovely little town, we found a few lovely pubs some little hidden gems, or so we thought 😞 we went to the oldest pub in Gosport "The Fox" only to find it was so clicky that we as guests of Gosport didn't feel welcomed, we could clearly see that customer's were clearly going out of the garden to smoke cannabis to then return to the establishment, the owners and staff didn't seem to care much about this even though they smelled off weed, yet they claim to be a zero tolerance establishment 🤦🏼‍♀️ there was more people going to the toilet or walking off the premises to do drugs then returning with no comeback from management or staff, I guess it's a place where your face fits and they like you, you get away with everything as we seen more than we would like too. Would not recommend unless you want to expose your family to this.

A long time since I have been to the Fox. We made it our pub of choice back in 1980 when I was in Gosport with a class of trainee submariners. 6 Australians & 6 Canadians. The landlord at the time put on a farewell party for us. Great memories of the fox. Glad to hear it is still going. I will be over from Aus in May. Hope to visit for a pint

Came here today for lunch with my parents, mostly based on the name because I love foxes, and what a lovely pub it is! The landlord and landlady were so friendly and welcoming, the food was absolutely delicious with generous portions and excellent value for money! It has a really authentic pub feel, with a pool table, darts board and secluded outside dining/drinking area. Couldn't really ask for more and will definitely be back!

I had never been in this pub before so thought I'd try it. Only real ale was Jail Ale (why do pubs in Hampshire insist on having Cornish beer!) Beer was OK but not brilliant. Asked for a half pint for my wife in a straight glass rather than the dimple mug but they didn't have any straight glasses (unusual). This pub is a few hundred yards from the excellent Fallen Acorn brewery - pity they don't do their beers. Not a place I would return to. Didn't have any food but apparently their food is OK, but don't bother if you are a real ale fan.

New owners have levelled up here and put up a reasonably priced menu with great food! And it's very clean in here with a friendly welcome. At 285 years old, it's Gosport's oldest pub and with all the improvements definitely something Gosport should be proud of. Great job by all involved

Well I turned up half an hour before its advertised closing time to the evident annoyance of the staff. Tried ignoring me and when that didnt work reluctantly served me and forced me to listen to a rant about how they were just about to close. The finale to this performance was deliberately putting the cup of coffee as far away as possible on the counter. My tip if you want to close early shut the door and put up a closed sign. Absolute height of rudeness. The coffee was ok
