Great food. The pork chop was enormous and the sirloin steak was cooked perfectly.

Can't wait until we go back again.

I’m delighted to have found The Fox for a Sunday lunch - simply the best I’ve had in ages.
Opted for the beef, which was delivered on a warmed plate beautifully pink and not swimming in gravy. Roast potato’s that were fluffy and crispy, clearly not having been sat around all day.
Lastly a selection of fresh vegetables - the cauliflower cheese was to die for !
The restaurant is very spacious and people are only dining so it’s a peaceful environment in which to enjoy a superb Sunday lunch.

Excellent fish and chips for a weekday lunch. Lovely stylishly decorated dining room, pleasant atmosphere, very friendly staff and well designed and interesting menu. Will definitely be coming back to try some of the other really nice dishes I saw on the menu. Just sorry my mum paid and messed up tipping on the machine and then we didn’t have enough change for a proper tip sorry!

Popped into The Fox for lunch half-way round a Sudbury circular walk. So impressed. The food was excellent. Plenty of choice on the menu and specials. Thoughtfully presented and generous portions. Carafes of wine available and Brewshed beers. The pub itself is well laid out and the staff friendly and attentive. I cannot recommend it enough.

The vegan menu was disappointing. There were two choices as a main dish - Cauliflower steak or Gnocchi. These have been the only choices on the menu for over six months. As I don't like Gnocchi, I did try it, as a change from the cauliflower steak, but ended up only eating the peas, I am fed up of only having one choice each time I visit this restaurant while the non-vegans have at least six choices, so can have a different meal. This is really disappointing and means that I am reluctant to return even though the food is well cooked and tasty, and will be looking for other places to eat where the vegan menu is not an after thought.

A lovely restaurant with smashing food. Great service with very pleasant smiley staff. All local beers brewed in nearby Sudbury. Will certainly go again. Super.

Relaxed vibe, great choices on the menu, delicious wines.
We went with another couple and even though it was pouring we sat outside in one of their covered booths while we waited for our table and enjoyed a bottle...Nice to be outside!
As I said the food is really good. Two courses was plenty for us. I had fish, the others had various meats. There was a veggie option (which I nearly went for).
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

A super restaurant- well worth noting down.
Good food. Subtle flavours. Well thought out.
Of particular note was the duck meat scotch egg with red cabbage. Superb. Cool interior on a hot day - aircon. Great seating outside too.
Will keep coming back.

My friend & I had a fabulous 3 courses here last night. It's been a while since I lasted visited, but the interior has had a lovely refurbishment and feels spacious but cosy at the same time.
My friend is gluten-free, but there was a great choice for her on the menu. For starters she had goats cheese fritters & I had cauliflower fritters both with onion chutney, which were fresh & delicious. We both had the same for mains ( which is very unusual!) - Mushroom Gnocchi, which was very moreish and was gone in minutes! ( no photo if that as it was gone so quickly!!) As we still had room for pudding, we had Lemon Curd rice pudding & Creme Brulee which were the perfect finish to our meal. The service both waitresses was attentive, friendly and relaxed. ( name check to Fiona!) I definitely won't leave it so long before I visit again! Thank you.

First time visit.
Lunch menu had plenty of choice.
Fish finger baguette, mac n cheese both lovely.
Steak burger, fries and slaw was epic!
Nice ale too.
Service a tad slow but was made aware of this on arrival.

Will definitely visit again.

The design makes it look like a plain/basic restaurant but the food was sooo good, with proper innovative creations bringing a combination of unique tastes together. Like the Merkel in Salsa Verde sauce and the Sea Bream with mashed cauliflower - Yum! Highly recommended
