The stop for lunch while hiking the Overton Circular. Lovely pub with great food. We all had clean plates at the end of our meal. Everyone had the roast which they raved about while I had the risotto which was absolutely delicious.

Family get together following a cremation. Excellent food provided and really good service at the bar. A little out of the way but with a lovely beer garden. Would be lovely on a hot summer day.

Google should do something to ensure proprietors are not unfairly penalised. When reviews are left up for a length of time.

Six of us tried their Sunday lunch time menu yesterday. Only one of us had a traditional roast and everyone else enjoyed their menu choices. The steak and venison pie was worth the 60-mile trek alone but when followed by the sticky toffee pudding and Exmoor Ale I was not fit for much else afterwards. The vegetarian option was also well received as was the mixed fruit meringue. Too many choices!The staff were friendly, the Scottish gent who took our order was quite a character and the whole experience was most enjoyable. Well done at a reasonable price.Just one word of caution for tall people, be prepared to duck! There are low beams.

Friendly, efficient service with a smile and nothing was too much bother though we were a party of 14 at Easter. Excellent food and really friendly people. We will definitely be back for a quieter pint and food when there are less of us over the summer.

A great find off the beaten track. I chose the steak and venison in Guinness pie, wow, possibly the best pie ever, generous individual pie in short crust pastry.Guinness wasn't bad either.All of our party of 7 commented how they enjoyed the food

The Fox is as friendly a place to go to, for either just a drink or eating snacks or a full meal. And despite changes in staff, they have managed to maintain the friendly ambiance. Always a pleasure to go to, with the same level of service no matter what you're there for.Location, service and quality, all 5 Star.
