The Fox Inn is open!
Serving food at lunchtime and evenings (closed on Monday and Tuesday evenings) in our safe and well spaced restaurant and bar.
Hearty plates of homemade pub classics are available to enjoy from our main menu, while those wanting to sit in the bar for a few drinks can enjoy smaller, but still substantial, meals from our new bar menu.
Tables in the restaurant and bar will be strictly table service so booking ahead is recommended. Walk-ins will be accepted if there is a table available but may be subject to a wait. Please use the booking form opposite (below if you’re viewing our page on a mobile device) to make a reservation.
All members of your party must be from the same household, in line with current government restrictions.
We have a large undercover outdoor area for groups of up to 6 people from mixed households. Wrap up and bring your blankets, and with a plate of our piping hot food, and a warming coffee or mulled wine, we’re sure you’ll enjoy the tranquility our little corner of Essex has to offer this winter!
Menus are subject to change without prior notice. If you have any queries about our food or would like to discuss dietary requirements, please contact us.
