People have been telling me for years to come here. I am glad I have finally done so. Don't get me wrong, the location is great. A rustic inn with a lovely garden to the rear and views of the rolling downs. There is a nice ale selection, and the staff are friendly Everyone says the food is amazing. I... More

Ridiculously expensive for what you get. Serving VERY small portions. Supposedly fillet fish with more bones in it than a graveyard. Probably the smallest piece of fish , followed by the tiniest sample of dessert which I've had the disappointment to be served in a long time. A sorry would have been nice when the young man with the blonde... More

Visited this pub several times now and consider it to be by far the best pub in the area, its well run, with good beers, a great variety of wine and the food is excellent. Have read other reviews on here which say the food is over priced, but what they fail to mention is that everything is homemade and... More

We have visited "The Fox Goes Free" about 6/8 times a year for the last five years. The 17th Century pub is in a beautiful location in a small village near the South Downs close to Goodwood.It is full of character and the large garden has one of the best views of the rolling hills of the South Downs I...

Having been born and raised in the area, I was looking forward to heading to The Fox goes Free for a nice evening out with lovely food and great ambience - just like I used to remember. The ambience was fantastic with a log fire and a real local pub feel. The food however has really gone downhill. All our... More

We live nearby in Bosham and we're already spoilt for choice with the pubs close to us. However we were going to the Weald and Downland museum and thought the Fox Goes Free would be ideal for lunch afterwards. We had not been for a couple of years and we were really looking forward to our Sunday roast. The surroundings... More

We were recommended the Fox Goes Free by our friends who live in Bognor Regis. Our friends advised that the food & service were very good on previous visits they... More
