Our Story
The Fox is a family-run pub and restaurant, owned and lovingly run by husband and wife Paul & Gail Spencer, supported by a small team who share our passion for great food and warm hospitality.
Following the success of our first venture, Heathfield’s Café, we wanted to bring The Fox back to life and create somewhere that felt both special and genuinely local.
As Keston residents ourselves, being part of the community is at the heart of what we do.
We wanted to reimagine The Fox with the restaurant at its heart, but with all the relaxed, welcoming spirit & character of a traditional pub — somewhere to enjoy a great meal, a drink with friends, or a family visit, dogs very much welcome.
We hope The Fox feels like a place you can make your own: relaxed, welcoming and local, with food that’s worth coming back for.❤
Our Menu
We offer a wide variety of dishes to suit all tastes, including vegetarian and vegan options. Our gastropub menu changes seasonally to ensure we are always using the freshest ingredients available.
All of our dishes are freshly prepared in house, we even chip our own chips!
Where possible we try to support local suppliers and producers. We grow our own herbs in our beautiful garden which we use in our salads and dressings.
We also create weekly specials so that our menu is varied and ever changing.
