The Fox Inn - Tamworth

I had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. The food was fresh and delicious, the service was excellent. Our server, Lucy, was very kind and friendly. The menu had a lot of great options and the cocktails were impressive. I would give it 5 stars and will definitely be coming back in the future.

My husband and I have been regular customers at the Fox for the past few years. We have always enjoyed the lunch menu, which offers great value and a good selection of food, including healthy options. Unfortunately, during my recent visit with my mother and two friends, we were disappointed by the significant changes made to the menu in terms of both price and choices available. My first choice, tortellini, was not available and I was surprised to find that there were no other pasta options such as lasagne. I ended up ordering a sandwich on focaccia bread, which was bland and underwhelming. Two of my companions ordered the Hunter's Chicken, which they found to be tough and inedible. The cost of these meals was removed from our bill and we were offered complimentary desserts. Despite the disappointing experience with the food, the staff, particularly our waitress Margaret, were attentive and friendly. We may choose to dine elsewhere in the future but hope that the Fox can return to its usual high standards soon.

Rang up this morning to book a table for 3pm, was told no bookings walk ins only til 5pm. Arrived at 3pm and was told bookings only, and is fully booked. Explained we tried to book a table earlier and spoke to a woman on the phone, the man we spoke to said she must have been mistaken. Bit of an attitude and no apology whatsoever. Won’t be coming back I’m afraid

I have dined at the Fox many times over the years but was very disappointed with recent meal and won’t be going again unless things change. I ordered a burger with chips. I asked not to have the bread roll. When the meal arrived, it was the tiniest meal, like a child’s portion. I spoke to the waitress about this. She may have been the manager, not sure, but she was extremely brisk in her attitude and told me about portion control and how they would go out of business if they had given me a few extra chips as I hadn’t had a bread roll. I told her I felt it was like a child’s portion and not at all worth the £15 charged. I asked for some more chips and was charged £3.50 for these. I never normally complain about meals and have never complained about the size of my meal, but on this occasion, the tiny meal and rudeness of staff just spoiled my evening,

Came here for Christmas lunch, and the staff were so lovely and attentive, the lady who served us, Sharon G, was absolutely wonderful and so understanding of my soya allergy, she brought the allergen guide for main and dessert separately which was lovely. The food and drinks were divine, really lovely afternoon.
