Visited the Fox at Bulmer for Sunday lunch . It was very crowded and we waited a long time to be served. I ordered skate goujons for a starter . When I started to eat it it reeked of ammonia and was inedible . I sent it back and they agreed it was awful and offered me another starter and a drink . I refused another starter ,I’m worried now about how old that fish was in the starter.Not impressed

Had a delicious meal here with some friends during a visit in September. They were quite excited to go, as the place had gone through some changes just prior. The staff was very friendly, although they were a little slow sometimes. Our food was very tasty, and they made some modifications for my fish to make it gluten free.

Our first visit to The Fox since reopening. We loved the food especially the big chips, the portions were generous. The staff are well trained and professional. If in Suffolk, do try the Crown at Hartest and One Bull, St Edmunds. You won’t be disappointed.

First time I have been since re-opening, I have to say thefood was well cooked, the staff friendly and polite, dinning area light and airy and appeared to be plenty of room around each of the dinning tables, I would suggest you give it a try, the menu clearly will change with the seasons for me an all round pleasant eating experience.

I came for dinner with a group of friends for a catch up and had a wonderful evening. I am vegan and there were a few enticing options and both the adapted starter and cauliflower steak main were delicious! Service was impeccable, really friendly and patient staff with any questions, checking back and splitting the bill. Love the interior - feels spacious yet cosy and great coffee and a cool bar!

The food is ok but the service was very slow, although the staff were friendly. This was at lunchtime and the place did fill up so perhaps they were busier than usual.

I visited the pub for lunch & choose from the specials menu. 2 courses for £14. The portion sizes were just right, I didn't feel bloated. There was a few choices for pescatarians which was nice. The food was hot, tasty & arrived quickly. Nice atmosphere & the staff were very friendly.

Had dinner here for the first time under the new ownership. The staff were friendly and very helpful, made us feel very welcome and like valued customers, a rarity these days
The food was delicious. I could not fault it. I had ham hock to start with. It was a large portion for a stArter but a couple of us shared them so we could enjoy the rest of the meal. I the. Had the pork rib, I would highly recommend this dish, the accompanying red cabbage was full of flavour and a great winter vegetable. I did not have dessert but those who did had no complaintsWill definitely be going back. Intend to visit fir Sunday lunch too

The food was fine but the service was very poor. Rather overpriced for the overall experience.

I visited recently and the food was very nice, I went with my family and had a two course meal. Our waitress Izzy was outstanding, very attentive and pretty.

First visit since having new owners. We were a party of 7 for a light lunch and dietary needs. The staff offered a vegan alternative with no trouble, they were very attentive, enthusiastic and professional. The fat chips were delicious and I enjoyed my smoked mackerel with sourdough. Missed the bread with olive oil and balsamic but had sourdough and butter instead. I for one will be returning.

First time we have been since the Fox reopened, liked the new decor. We all enjoyed our meals with friendly service and thought the set lunch menu was very good value. My only niggles would be it was very noisy, the service was rather slow (both maybe due to a large party seated nearby) and the hanging lights over the table started flickering slightly. We'll certainly come again and give the Fox another whirl

We turned up on Friday evening without a booking. Lots of cars in the car pRk but still plenty of room. The restaurant was quite busy but they quickly found us a table. The staff were numerous and we didn’t have to wait long for attention. Mixed menu, not full of old favourites but very enticing. Lots of new things to try or familiar dishes with a twist. Excellent food served promptly. Can’t stress enough how good the staff were, they made sure it was an enjoyable evening. A good evening out.

We met friends there last month and enjoyed our meal.
However, as time moved on the noise was quite deafening, every group or table seemed to be competing to hear each other.What a disappointing outcome, we will meet the same friends somewhere else next time. How places change, not always for the better.

Went with the family for Sunday lunch. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. The last thing I did before leaving was to book a table for my daughters birthday in December.
