| Really sorry if i come across like a grumpy old git here but im gonna have abit of a moan about which was once my favourite pub. In my opinion,its just not what it used to be. Been my local boozer for years, but recently sold off by ember inns. the current owners (sorry i forget who) are really aiming at younger clients e.g offers on shots and pitchers of carling etc and playing dance music in the background. in the last 3 or 4 times iv visited there have been big groups of roudy 18-30s making noise and mess. also allowing kids for the first time, which doesnt bother me usually but there are loads of them!beer is very average as is the food, but you pay higher than average prices. The pub itself is a good size but needs decorating, the fox got flooded out twice many years ago and doesnt seem to have seen a lick of paint since.i recommend you go up the road to the tame otter. Better in every way in my opinion, but always alot busier than the fox...says alot though i think Johnsmith33 - 18 Aug 2011 15:46 |
| Had a family day out for my mothersday, had a wonderfull time at Fox with some free truffles. Kids were kept occupied with outdoor findafox game whch was great. Meals were of very good standard an at reasonable price. Staff were attentive and great with kids. Will be visiting again soon with family. lemo1976 - 7 Apr 2011 20:53 |
| A small Ember Inn. Always running out of items on the menu. Big garden area. Go to another Ember Inn, and the food is always better. ajengland - 14 Oct 2009 12:40 |
| No review for 2 years, or so, so i thought i would pop in for the first time in a few years. Its a large, multi-building, white rendered, Ember Inns pub, with beer garden and patio. The interior is open plan, with plain red and peach walls, with some white wood panel, with arty pictures and stacks of chopped wood! snazzy carpet goes with sofas and stool to create a real soulless interior. There was a quiz going. Service was fine, the clientele younger to mixed, but it was popular. I didnt try the food. Beer; tap stuff, with Banks's Bitter, Pedigree and Adnams Explorer on handpull. No U14s were allowed - i did see the sign, but it could be missed to be fair. However, why on Earth would you want to bring them here? Pop up to the Otter or Red Lion in Hopwas, far better Archivist - 24 Aug 2009 12:14 |
| 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 |
