We have lived in Wilbarston for 14 years and seen a variety of publicans come and go, some missed more than others. Really pleased to welcome the new tenants who put on a terrific open day with live music and a lovely atmosphere. We had fish and chips lunch recently which was gorgeous, despite being as far from the sea as you could be in England! Nice choice of drinks and we intend to be regular customers, hope quiz nights may restart? Hope our village values and supports the new tenants

Just got home from the Fox inn Wilbarston. New management has made an incredible difference. Food was nothing less than amazing, I definitely have a new favorite eating place. Good fun, friendly pub with a warm welcoming feel.
You really must try this one.

The new landlady has transformed this place, so ignore previous reviews which refer to prior management! This is now warm, cosy and atmospheric, somewhere you want to spend time! Excellent service and hospitality!

A Warm Welcome Back to The Fox Inn, Wilbarston!
Revisiting a pub under new management can be a gamble—will it still have that old pub charm, or will it feel completely different? Well, I’m happy to report that The Fox Inn at Wilbarston is in very good hands!
From the moment we stepped through the door, the new landlady made us feel completely at home. She’s got that perfect mix of warmth and efficiency, making sure everyone feels welcome without being overbearing. The staff, too, were all smiles—friendly, chatty, and clearly happy to be there. It makes such a difference when the team genuinely seems to enjoy what they do!
Now, onto the food. We popped in for lunch, and honestly, the value was fantastic. Generous portions, well-cooked, and none of that ‘style over substance’ nonsense—you get proper, hearty food that tastes great and doesn’t break the bank. Exactly what you want from a good pub lunch!
The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, with a mix of locals and visitors creating a nice buzz without it feeling too crowded. You can tell this place is fast becoming a hub of the village again, which is always a great sign.
Overall, it’s safe to say The Fox Inn is definitely worth a visit (or a revisit!). If you’re after good food, a friendly welcome, and a proper community pub feel, this is the spot. Looking forward to going back soon!
