We went for our anniversary. It was our first time, we thought we’d give it a try as we’re both steak lovers. It was great! The food was amazing and our server Mia was really nice, lovely smile, great service. We said we’d go back and recommend others to visit. Thank you!

Sunday lunch - first off, the beef and the yorkies/gravy were excellent.
The panache of veg was odd - some brown parsnips, under seasoned cabbage, bland cauliflower cheese, a load of red onions (just weird) and one carrot chopped into six bits. Almost as if they’d run out of veg and were scrambling about in the walk in to see what they could bulk it out with.
The roast potatoes were as bad as the beef was good. Al dente would be an understatement.
Service was friendly, efficient and smiley.
Would be back if the veg and roasties were sorted out but don’t trust it enough to return, which is a shame as we are only a five mins drive away.

Great pub, tasty food, the best thing is the friendly service. We were served by Fran and Mia, they were so helpful with the menu and absolutely charming.
The seabass was delicious!

Stopped off at the Fox on our way home from a day out. The restaurant has a good choice of food both on the starters and main courses as well as a specials menu. The food was very good and well presented. In addition the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Enjoyable experience

Friendly & attentive staff and a lovely atmosphere. My husband’s rump steak was slightly over cooked but was a very clean cut with no gristle. Proper chips would have been a bonus. My skate wing was a huge disappointment. . . too much butter making it very greasy and only half a wing so not a very big portion size. Waitress explained at the end that they buy in big skate wings and portion them up, but as I didn’t get what I thought I was getting, the manager took the price of the skate off the bill. Had deserts which were homemade but probably wouldn’t bother with them in the future as they were not that special.

Dropped in to The Fox at Bulmer as I needed somewhere quiet to work. The team were really welcoming and went out of their way to find me a corner to use my laptop. I stayed for glass of wine pf the week with dinner. Wow the food is excellent, very well presented, hot and delicious. I had the Chicken Stitzel, cooked perfectly.
Loved the anchovies on the Caesar salad.
All the members of the team were attentive and welcoming. Thanks for having me, I will be back.

Lovely food and really great service! Staff were extremely supportive with my gluten free allergy and provided me with a separate and varied menu to choose from. Highly recommended.

Absolutely beautiful restaurant. Clean and modern inside. Great service and food was outstanding.
Meal for two plus small dog. I had the lamb burger which was really nice. My partner had the pigeon wellington - a pigeon virgin - and he loved it. Both were from the spring menu.
They also provided a water bowl for the dog 🐕❤️

We’ve had some very average Sunday lunches over the years but very pleased to say that our lunch at The Fox today was absolutely delicious. Hot, tasty and plentiful food served with good humour and just enough ‘service’. We will be back.

We found this place by accident two years ago. Haven't been back since as we are not local. Decided to have a couple of days away in Sudbury. Gave us the opportunity to revisit the Fox. We were not disappointed. Visited two nights running. The food was excellent, the staff equal to it. Fran and Gary are too good to be referred to as mere servers. Would recommend the beetroot trout as a starter. For mains try the pigeon wellington, you'll not be disappointed. We both agree that should we live nearer the Fox would be a regular place to go to. It's a great place to take your friends.
