About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups
  • Great for brunch
Reservations are for food bookings only – all drinks are first come, first served.

Not trying too hard, not overly complicated, and EXACTLY what you are looking for; our menu is the fox's knees. We have got a great selection of Scottish beers on tap, and have recently created an extensive cocktail menu for you to sip on while you catch up with friends. From the kitchen, you can expect feel good pub dishes with a twist made from fresh, seasonal ingredients – we think yer granny would even approve!

Foxes might not be great at sports (it’s hard when you can’t even wear shoes) but that doesn’t stop us from watching all the big games! We have all Sky Sports & BT channels so can show everything from the Scottish Premiership & International Football to the Grand National and Wimbledon. Swing by, pull up a pew and catch all of the action.

    I had the roast chicken and my mum had the roast beef and both were equally as delicious! The roast potatoes were incredible and the fact I finished all the mash is saying something for just how good it was. The free spritzer my mum received for Mother’s Day was really refreshing and appreciated and I really loved the twister cocktail. Service was prompt and friendly and we couldn’t have asked for much more! Booked a meal for a couple of weeks time as there is stuff on the menu I’m desperate to try!

    It was an enjoyable evening. I think we just picked the wrong meal. The gnocchi was a bit peppery and bland. The side order of dirty fries was excellent.
