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.

    Excellent steaks as always, chicken dish was also really tasty. Sunday roast lunch was plentiful and the Yorkshire puddings are spectacular. Great service and our wee dog loved his doggy steak too. Would recommend as a chilled way to spend a Sunday afternoon listening to the live music and spending precious time with family.

    Booked a table for our friends birthday and managed to get a booth. We had a tv right next to us so we could watch the football and the rugby. Ordered some food and the pizzas were amazing. The tacos were rather small considering the price. Waiting staff were great and music was just the right level ⭐️
