The Fox Goes Free - Chichester

Visited for lunch with group of 10 golfers for Christmas lunch. The Fox is a great venue and the food and service was excellent. It was very a very busy time but the staff managed it all with skill and patience.

Terrible. There are no other words to describe this place. The food was disgusting and it is astonishing that the management allow it to be served to paying customers. There are no excuses for rubbish to be given to people paying (in this case) way over the top prices. I felt cheated but because I was with others at the time it would have been embarrassing to have said as much. I strongly advise against visiting this establishment. It was at sometime in the past a good place but not anymore.

We had a fantastic meal here celebrating Grandma’s 80th birthday. Lovely environment, great food and a very genial host. Thank you all!

My friend and I chose this pub on recommendation but were horrified when we both selected “dairy-free” meal options only to be unknowingly served the options that weren’t diary free. Potentially we both could have been very unwell but thankfully one of the waitresses picked up on the error before we started eating, but only because my friend asked her to double-check. This was extremely poor service and terrible oversight.

After dining at this restaurant before, we were let down by our Christmas lunch experience. While we appreciated the festive decor, the staff's helpfulness, and the high quality wine, the scallop starter was unappetizing and the turkey main dish was subpar. To top it off, my husband found the profiteroles dessert to be stale with inedible cream.
