What a lovely place to stay. Staff were all friendly and welcoming lead by Rachael. Food was lovely and great value for money. Stopped overnight and the breakfast was excellent. We had travelled nearly 150 miles to meet up with friends and felt fully refreshed after a great nights sleep. Would be more than happy to stop there again.

We visited before and after our flights from Bristol Airport, first time we hadn't booked a table but the staff we're able to find us one. On our return flight I booked a table but due to being delayed we were late by nearly a hour, but we were still able to eat. Our meals both time were great and the staff even better.

The wife and I had to pick some friends up from Bristol Airport so we booked a table in The Fox & Goose after a long drive up from Cornwall.The service there is excellent from booking the table to the service in the pub / restaurant. The food was excellent, overall I can't rate the Fox & Goose enough, nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend a visit.

Catching up with friends. Been here before and we like the area, staff and easy parking. The tables were cleaner than the last time we visited, which was good, please continue in this way. Food is generally good in terms of size and taste and well priced compared to other places. This time around 2 of us chose to have the Sharing Nachos for starters, however were told no Guacamole was available so were we happy to have more topping of the other items. When we received the plate the portion was smaller than anticipated, there were no extra toppings and we thought this was poor value for money in this instance and were left a little disappointed. The other starters were fine as were the main meals that the 4 of us had. We tried to use a 30% off promotion voucher and were told we had to have the entire email.......IT DOES NOT STATE THIS ON THE EMAIL.....just the code is required, therefore we were unable to use this. We did however use our 20% off blue light card. The trouble is that the code must be shown on the phone! How about people who are unable to use tech or lose battery power or are unable to use the phone in this manner, surely the card should suffice! We find this is really annoying especially as it does not state you need a phone to USE the BLC discounts. We know this is not your issue however perhaps USE other forms of ID if need be to verify cards, that way it is more inclusive for all. Your staff need to realise this and use a sensible approach....it is a suggestion not an order. Other than that, we always have a lovely time here. We will wait and see if things change on our next visit.

This isn't actually a review of the facilities as I haven't stayed at the Fox & Goose. This is a 'review' of the wonderful landlady who selflessly came to the aid of four complete strangers on Monday afternoon when the main road to the airport was blocked by a fallen electricity wire and we all thought we were going to miss our flights.She didn't want to take a penny from any of us, saying she just wanted to help. I think the others all caught their flights thanks to this incredibly generously spirited landlady. Unfortunately, I missed mine but I had check-in luggage and my flight was earlier than theirs.I'm now where I should have been on Monday and I find myself reflecting on those manic few hours. Imagine how much better the world would be if more people displayed such generosity and kindness to people she didn't even know - we weren't her customers. I barely got chance to thank her as I grabbed my suitcase and literally took flight, but I really cannot imagine a nicer host for an overnight stay.

Food was really nice, and staff were friendly and attentive. Good value for money, especially with the curry and drink option. Medium sixed car park, was fine on our visit. Not too far from Bristol airport too.

Restaurant was busy but a nice vibe. Staff very friendly and we had a table booked which was in a area that was a bit noisy. The lady behind the bar asked us if we wanted to move to a quieter area which was appreciated after a long drive. Also stayed in one of the family rooms. Great size for the 3 of us and comfortable.
