“ Good food made with top quality ingredients. My wife loves the beer selection. I love the cider and meads. ”
“ Review Visit: February 13th, 2018 What does the Fox say? Arrroooooooo (in a British Accent)! What does that translate to? It's a bit long-winded, so bear with me. *In a British accent* "Hello, savvy reader. If you love some good British food and are in the central Illinois region, The Fox is right up your alley." "Their entire menu is British-themed and so is the pub. While the pub itself isn't overloaded with British things, you can tell it's got a British vibe while not being too gauche." "The food is delectable. Exquisite." "Mmmm, yes." Wow, the fox had a lot to say! Do I agree with the Fox? Yes. My friends and I came here and loved every bit of it. The service was fantastic and the place felt welcoming and friendly. I ordered the Chipotle Beefeater Brisket and it was phenomenal. We sampled my friends Hummus and while I am not big on hummus, we all agreed it was great. Everyone gushed over how great their food was. Another perfect example that bar/pub food is the best food. I sadly didn't get a ton of photos as I was focused on hanging out with my friends. I will snap a few more the next time I go. Be aware that if you do visit that they have Trivia on Thursdays nights. We tried to come here on one of those nights and it was packed and they suggested we come back another time due to it being too busy. So if you need your Bangers and Mash or Fish and Chips fix and are in the Peoria area, this is the perfect place for you. ”
“ My bf used to come here a lot while living in Peoria so he was excited to bring me. We had a few drinks and the curry fries. Bartending staff were great; friendly, made good suggestions, engaging etc. I knocked a star off because the hostess was actually very abrasive and kind of rude to us. I'm glad we sat at the bar. ”
“ Ate at the bar with a friend mid week. This place never disappoints. They have a seasonal addition to their regular menu and it's outstanding. I had the tikka masala with shrimp. You can get it with chicken as well. The sauce was perfection. Their regular menu curry and their fish & chips are also excellent. Beer tap selection is maybe the best in town. The bar is clean (no tap fly action here). Staff and service are all around friendly (but not overbearing) and knowledgeable about the menu. Fox Pub is a great place to take guests from out of town or catch up with long time friends. So glad it's here!!! ”
“ We have been here a couple of times. Once for Saturday morning soccer, and another for a trivia night. The food is okay, portions are small, and I feel like most dishes are overpriced. The fries are skinny, some are hard and crunchy, and get cold quickly. The curry sauce is pretty good. Fish n chips had a nice big piece of fish that was really good and crispy. Service to s good and attentive, decor is Typical for a pub with fun Union Jack decorations to play up the British vibe. Great place to watch English Premier League footy. ”
“ We went to Fox for Trivia Night. Lots of fun! While there I tried the Rueben sandwich with fries. The Rueben was tasty, though the bottom bread was a bit soggy. I loved the fries but wish they were cut a bit bigger. They were so small they were hard to dip in ketchup or ranch. My friend had the cottage pie. It was good, but I think she'll order something else the next time. The sticky toffee pudding was excellent. I've had the real thing several times in England - and like their version better. Jennifer did a great job taking care of us throughout the evening. Attentive and fun. ”
“ Located in a strip mall in Peoria; definitely better than what I thought it was going to be. Lots of beers on tap - and they pour a proper Guinness! Whiskey neats are also poured well, which was much appreciated. Large enough space with plenty of seating options; high tops, bar rail and tables. Menu seemed sufficient. I enjoyed the Fish and Chips and my husband had the Tower of London Burger. Fries were good, but gosh they were tiny! Not the portion but the size. Hard to grab really, you know, with adult sized fingers. But that kept me from eating all of them, so I guess that's a plus. I would for sure come here again; super chill place, decent service and again, great pours on the beer and whiskey. ”
