🎄 THE ULTIMATE EXCLUSIVE SANTA EXPERIENCE AT THE FOX, ASPENDEN 🎄

Monday, December 21st — Picture this: the schools have broken up, Christmas is just around the corner, and the excitement is reaching its peak. What better way to kick off the final week leading up to the big day than with a magical visit to see Santa Claus himself?

The Fox is normally closed on Mondays, but this Monday is going to be completely different! We are opening our doors for a one-day-only private Christmas takeover, fully transforming the pub into a cozy winter wonderland with twinkling lights, a gorgeous Christmas tree, and a roaring open fire.

✨ What’s Included ...
Gingerbread Houses: Build and decorate your own family gingerbread house right at your table with the help of our cheerful elves.

Live Crepe & Hot Chocolate Station: Children can go up and watch their very own crepes being made right in front of them, choosing their favorite toppings like marshmallows, Nutella, candy canes, chocolate drops, and more!

Letter-to-Santa Station: Write your special letter right at the table, ready to be posted directly into Santa's official mailbox.

Private Grotto Visit: Our dining room will be completely transformed into Father Christmas's Grotto! During your two-hour slot, our friendly elves will come right over to your table to let you know when it’s your turn to be guided in for unhurried, magical quality time with Santa—whether that’s at the beginning, middle, or end of your session.

The Christmas Stocking: Santa presents every child with their very own stocking filled with a special main gift, a sweetie treat, a magical bell, a magical key, reindeer dust, and a magic carrot for Christmas Eve!

🥂 (Grown-ups enjoy FREE entry, a fully stocked bar for festive tipples, and delicious festive baguettes and sandwiches available to order right from your table!)

Join us for some lovely family autumn fun on October 29th or 30th from 12:00 PM onwards! Our pumpkin patch is held out in the garden and is fully undercover.

🎃 Dress up in their favorite spooky or lovely outfits (with cozy layers underneath!).
🎃 Choose their very own pumpkin.
🎃 Sit down and carve it right there with everything they need provided.
🏡 Take their wonderful creation home with them!

Hungry or thirsty? Our food hut will be serving up jacket potatoes, hot dogs, toasted sandwiches, hot chocolate, warm soup, and fresh coffee. For the grown-ups, the pub will be open as usual, so you can pop in and enjoy all your normal pub drinks while the kids get creative! 🍻🍷

⚠️ Booking is essential and is by time slot starting from 12:00 PM. Please call or message us directly to book your slot.

We look forward to seeing you there! 🧡🍂

Chimney sweep is booked for next Tuesday morning! 🧹🔥

We are getting our beloved open log fire ready, and honestly, we just can’t wait to get her back lit. She is the absolute heart and soul of The Fox Pub.

There is nothing quite like that smell and the way everyone naturally gathers round her. Last year, we lit her for the first time right here in September and didn’t turn her off until March—burning wood every single day without a miss.

Watch the video below to see her in action. We are counting down the days until we can have her roaring again! 👇

What an incredible day and night at the Fox Pub celebrating Ali Fest for her 60th! With stunning festival decor, everyone dressed to impress, the vintage van Spritz bar out front, the glitter station, and the DJ keeping everyone dancing, it was an unforgettable celebration (and thankfully the rain stayed away!).
The video is quite long—just like the day was—so enjoy watching it and seeing just how much fun was had! 🎉🥂✨

Just a quick heads-up to everyone—we’ve had quite a few messages and calls today asking about Christmas Day availability at The Fox Pub.
While we love the enthusiasm, we have actually been fully booked for the last two months, having snapped up all our Christmas Day tables super early!
To anyone we unfortunately couldn’t squeeze in for the big day itself, we are so sorry. However, the festive celebrations don't stop there! Keep an eye on our page because we’ll be serving up lots of lovely Christmas roasts all throughout the month of December.
Drop us a message to book your festive meal with us earlier in the month—we can't wait to celebrate with you! 🎄✨
