Visited during the afternoon when it wasn't wildly busy but quite a few people there. Friendly barlady asked if I was a CAMRA member because I would get a discount [note to self : I must look dodgy!], Having got the discount, beers were superb, will definitely re-visit.

The bar staff (especially the plump girl with long blonde hair) are rude and slow and appear to be grudgingly serving customers whilst chatting on their mobiles then short-changing. However, the catering staff are just the opposite and served us wonderfully presented and tasty Thai food with lovely smiles. Also Dave who runs the adjoining Alcazar Brewery was great giving our group a tour.

Popped in for the first time yesterday and found the staff very friendly and the beers superb. Selection of seven real ales (five light, one mild, one dark). Pub was clean and tidy, and we were made to feel welcome.

sadly going down hill. Managment and staff have a strange view on customer relations. The customer is never right. Beers still good, though and the thai food excellent.

very good range of beers, Thai food decent, the best pub in Bulwell/Basford by a country mile.
|
I have heard so much about this pub that I had to catch a tram on a recent crawl round Nottingham. The area was a bit quiet but the pub was busy and the ales were good. Plenty of choice and worth the visit.

Been a regular there for a few years now. Good beers and food, so far. New management in place the last few months, juke box and quiz machine recently installed, much to the disgust of the regulars. 7/10 (for the beers!)
|
Great pub, used to be a student at the halls round the corner and was in here all the time. I take it Dave and Tammie are still running the place?
Alcazar ales are great and the food was first class. A must visit boozer

Just been to their beer festival - they had a very impressive selection from new breweries all in excellent condition. The Alacazar Brewery is attached to the pub, the 8% stout, previously only available in bottled form, is now available on draught and is absolutely delicious. Haven't tried the thai food, though their pizzas are delicious

Lovely pub, excellent beer (I'm a big fan of the 'Brush Bitter') and first class Thai food. Introduced friends from across Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire to the place and all have enjoyed their visit.

beers and food were both good on my visit. Beers mostly from the local Alcazar brewery. Nice beer garden out the back.
|
Complacency has set in at the Fox and Crown.The beers used to be good but now all have a common peculiar flavour a bit like straw in fact.Not just a one off unfortunately. Prices are creeping up aswell.

|
Awesome pub, friendly staff, and Terry with a fiendish quiz. If it didn't shut we'd never go home.

Great variety of lagers as well as Real Ales, and 5 mins off the tram route - highly recommended (and the Thai food is something else!)

Try the new thai menu - it's cooked to perfection !
Definately worth a trip. The Prawn Crackers are Fab.

Brilliant for real ale fanatics. As well as a variety of their own brews, regular guests are available and also dozens of bottled beers from the continent.
