We're looking for a few good people to join us at The Fox.
There are roles going across the board at the moment — front of house and in the kitchen. We're a small team and a genuinely good one to be part of: proper rates of pay, a meal on duty when you're on a longer shift, and a business that's growing, so there's real room to grow with it.
If you care about doing things well and you like being around people, you'll fit in here.
All the roles are listed on the new careers page at www.foxatwalton.com/careers. You can email us at [email protected], ring us on 01937 842192, or just pop in and have a chat — we'd rather meet you than read a CV. 🦊

Every role comes with staff meals on shift, a share of tips and a team that pulls in the same direction. Apply below — or just come in and say hello.

Christmas Day tables are down to the last few, and December is filling up fast.
There's something about this place in winter — fire going, glasses filled, and a proper long lunch with the people you like most. Christmas Day is a relaxed, unhurried few hours with food we're genuinely proud of, and we're nearly out of tables for it.
The rest of December is shaping up much the same. Whether it's the work do, a get-together with friends, or just an excuse to sit down properly before the madness starts — we'd love to have you. Midweek is where the best tables are hiding, so if a Wednesday or Thursday suits, come and take your time over it. 🎄
Book with us on 01937 842192 or at www.foxatwalton.com

Freshly Made Pie speaks for itself 🥧

There’s nothing quite like a proper homemade pie.

Our pies are made from scratch in our kitchen, with delicious, comforting fillings, a golden pastry crust and plenty of care in every one.

Perfect for a cosy lunch or dinner, served with buttery mash, honey & thyme roasted carrots and proper gravy.

Come and enjoy a slice of homemade goodness at The Fox at Walton. 🦊

You can book a table online at foxatwalton.com or call us on 01937842192

Right then, a riddle for you…
What's golden, wobbly, and had to go back in the oven because once just wasn't enough?
Answers below — no peeking at the menu 👀

If you guessed our new twice baked Lincolnshire Poacher soufflé, you've earned yourself a table. Light as anything, proper rich with that gorgeous nutty cheese, and baked twice because some things are worth the extra effort.
It's landed on the menu now, and honestly, a quiet Wednesday or Thursday evening is the perfect time to come and try it while it's still the new arrival everyone's talking about.
Book a table on 01937 842192 or at www.foxatwalton.com — or just pop in and say hello.

Yes, it's 30 degrees. Yes, we're about to say the C word. Sorry. 🎄
While you've been making the most of Costa del Walton, we've been tucked away planning Christmas — and the menus are nearly here. Festive parties, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve... all of it, done the way we do things. Proper food, no shortcuts.
Whether it's the works do, the annual friends' get-together, or a quieter midweek meal with all the festive trimmings, there'll be a menu to suit.
We'll be sharing them here and on the website over the coming weeks — but as ever, the popular dates fill up fast. Never too early to start planning (that's our excuse, anyway).
