A well earned stamp on the pilgrims passport, with a pint for good measure!

It was a pleasure to host the Oundle Pilgrimage group on their Walk Through History today.

Our lovely walkers have been braving the heat on a 15 mile route through Thorpe Waterville, Barnwell and Polebrooke all to raise money for Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall.

If you’d like to join us in donating to this brilliant cause, here’s the fundraising link to get involved

🌿 Support Local. Celebrate Local. 🍺

There’s something special about a country pub. A place where neighbours become friends, walkers stop for a well-earned pint, families gather around the table, and everyone is made to feel at home.

As an independent village pub, we’re proud to play our part in supporting local businesses. That’s why we serve a selection of locally brewed ales, bringing the very best of our region straight to your glass. Every pint tells a story of local craftsmanship, tradition, and passion.

When you choose to spend an afternoon or evening with us, you’re doing more than enjoying good food, great beer, and warm hospitality. You’re helping to support independent breweries, local suppliers, and a rural pub that sits at the heart of its community.

So, whether you’re calling in after a countryside walk, catching up with friends, or simply enjoying a quiet pint in the garden, thank you for supporting local.

Here’s to great beer, good company, and keeping the tradition of the country pub alive for generations to come. 🍻

AVAILABLE:

• Bishop’s Farewell - Golden Ale 4.8% (Oakham Ales, Oakham)

• JHB - Bitter 3.8% (Oakham Ales, Oakham)

•Barnwell Bitter 4% (Barnwell)

Join us with our new lovely specials here at The Fox Inn, available all week:

Spanish Tortilla with Chorizo & Red Pepper
A rustic Spanish classic packed with flavour — layers of tender potato, smoky chorizo and sweet roasted red pepper, gently set with golden eggs and served alongside our homemade honey-glazed ham. Finished with a silky garlic aioli for a rich, creamy finish that brings every bite together.

Pan-Fried Pork Fillet
Tender pan-fried pork fillet served on a bed of slow-cooked red cabbage with creamy mashed potato, finished with a rich pink peppercorn and Port reduction. A beautifully balanced dish combining warmth, sweetness and depth of flavour.

A decadent twist on a classic indulgence — delicate Disaronno Amaretto and cola jelly paired with juicy strawberries soaked in rich flavours, silky vanilla cream, meringue pieces and a luxurious chocolate wafer curl. Finished with fresh seasonal fruit for a refreshing burst of sweetness, this is a beautifully balanced dessert with layers of texture and indulgence in every spoonful.
