A truly classic pub which has so much history, we even feature in the Dickens novel "Great expectations". This pub is a true gem - on a sunny day, enjoy the outside area near the sea; in winter, settle down by our real fireplace in the warm and cosy pub. Enjoy a drink in the "Drifters Bar" upstairs or a delicious meal in our downstairs restaurant area.

    This pub is fast becoming a firm favourite - every time we go , they are so friendly and accommodating ! We have been this afternoon - Christmas Eve and just for drinks - and they were happy for us to do that, even though some pubs would insist on meals . The decoration is fabulous and we had a great time !

    An amazing experience! The food was gorgeous and the decor was insane! What a fabulous way to begin the festive celebrations. The Sugar Plum Fairy would have approved! Best food was the Stilton and Cranberry muffin followed by the Raspberry Ripple mousse. No way we were going to have room for it all but the carry home box was exquisite in itself. Thank you for a truly unforgettable afternoon. We will be back for the Regency in January!

    This is the second year running that my friend and I have been to the Fancy Fox for our Christmas afternoon tea. The venue is beautiful and is especially magical at Christmas. The food is absolutely fantastic and they were brilliant at catering for vegetarians/food allergies. The service can't be faulted and I would say that overall it is great value for money. Infact, there was so much food that we both had to take home leftovers.

    Came for the quiz, and it was a wonderful atmosphere and experience. The two waitresses were excellent and couldn’t have asked for a better evening.
