We are seriously passionate about patties and are based in Bourton-On-The-water, also known as ‘Venice of the Cotswolds’. Our restaurant sits circa 30 guests making it a small, exclusive place to come and eat. Since opening, we have made it our mission to get our hands on the best possible ingredients. We also use dry aged beef with a great fat content supplied by Aubrey Allen, which marries up with our strong, unique flavour combinations giving you the ultimate bite! We cant forget about or delightful buns, which are handmade daily by a wonderful local baker. All the flour used for our buns is made up of Cotswold flour sourced from local farmers. We also pride ourselves on having a vibrant cocktail scene. All of our cocktails are bespoke to us and our syrups and flavourings are made in house!

We had a wonderful family meal at The Fox. Great table and the food and service was excellent. The choice on the menu was just right and even the alternatives were good for parts of the menu which had been changed. We had a lovely meal and evening and would highly recommend!

Exceptional service & food. They even allowed my extremely allergic son to bring his own food so there would be no cross contamination. Every bite of the braised lamb was heavenly, the duck liver was perfect & dessert was the icing on the cake!
