| I cant believe what my eyes are reading on here!!! rbaily... why didnt you read the signs? Maybe you did and tried your look...are you old enough for a child?! Anyway... this pub has recently been flooded and has been refurb'd in areas were needed... Its a lovely modern pub without kids running around... Which makes a change for some pubs up the road... you cant walk without a child knocking you and spilling your drink.. The Fox is tranquil with a lovely resting area in the rear garden with plenty of space.... Fab service from all bar staff! All age groups go here all very friendly , people with kids under 14, enjoy the rear garden to eat meals, drink and enjoy there day.. They do have many locals, many people returning week after week! The foz isnt always tranquil, they have Themed nights for the adventurious people and quizet's!!! What do you people want?? Theres other pubs around Tamworth if you want kids running...hehe... P.s i live in polesworth and i travel the sometimes 20mins drive to come to the fox every week, i love the place!! e_gray - 7 Jul 2007 15:33 |
| I agree with the comments of RBAILY. One of the most family un-friendly pubs in town. Given the location of this pub,i.e not town centre, the owners perhaps should consider altering their policy in certain areas of the place.... rob69 - 6 Jun 2007 19:28 |
| Strange roundabout pub. Its full sofas that swallow you up - one of which was home to around 20 warrior-class thunderflies. The beer is fine, although the staff appeared to be at least one man down. londinieres - 22 May 2007 14:44 |
| Don't go, Some Ember Inns are OK but this is not one of them, poorly laid out, poor staff. Cross the river to the Tame Otter or better still the Red Lion at Hopwas a couple of 100 yards or so away. pubtalk - 12 Aug 2006 17:48 |
| The service I received 11 September 2005, 12:30pm: I asked if I could order food and drinks. The lady serving me replied asking where I was sitting, to which I pointed to my girlfriend bottle feeding our five month old son. She then said Yes I see. She went ahead and took the order, before bringing along cutlery and serviettes to our table. To which my girlfriend feeding our son on her lap was openly visible. After approximately another five minutes a lady came across and told us we had to leave, as children under 14 were not allowed in the pub. We said that they my girlfriend and son had been seen first when the food was ordered, and next when the serviettes and cutlery was placed on our table. All we got in response was that the lady could not have seen us, our son must have still been in his car seat, we said no he was on my girlfriend's lap. We also said how could she have not seen him when she allocated the serviettes and cutlery. To which she repeated the early comment about she must not have seen him. I felt this lady tone was quite rude and dismissive of us. Notably she did not think to consult with the lady that served us, who ironically was nowhere to be seen at this point. After receiving my refund for the food and drink purchased we had to take our son out to the car park and finish feeding him in the car. My girlfriend was quite upset at this especially given that it was quite obvious that we had a young son with us from the outset. If this is correct, and that they do not allow under fourteens' in their public houses, then why is there no appropriate signage ? In addition why it is not pointed out immediately ?
