Lovely people, warm welcome. Quite easily the best Sunday roast in the area. Proper family-run pub, young kids very welcome. Next-level pub quiz last Wednesday of the month. A proper local.

As always the Sunday roast was exceptional, the menu choice was extensive. The staff were polite, very accomodating and provided great service. We will definitely go again.

Nice pub. Was pretty lively on a Thursday night.

Delicious food, great service and friendly, attentive staff. Puddings were enormous. Really recommend!

Great community pub, with some excellent options on tap. Light and airy with a big beer garden out back.Kid-friendliness: Playground in the beer garden

Just a drinks only visit and they do a pretty good selection of keg beers including Paulaner lager.The garden is very nice too, although it can be overrun by kids at times.The staff are pretty friendly and inside the ecclesiastical furniture is quite quirky.I’ve heard good things about the food too, but haven’t indulged as yet.A nice quiet spot in a pleasant setting and worth popping by.

You know when you’re traveling and you find a restaurant that’s so relaxing and welcoming you just wished it was local to where you lived? Introducing The Limping Fox. Located on a residential street, the environment was overwhelmingly friendly- the staff so helpful and kind, even the patrons (and their dogs!) had a quick hello and a few words of good cheer! The food excellent and the environment relaxed and open. Welcome to all- children and dogs too! Definitely worth a visit. Grateful to have visited.

Those who follow these pubs from a local perspective will remember this as being "The New Inn" until around 2017. Heard mixed reviews from various people on the previous incarnation, I'm not one to drag on a pub for being bad, there is always an audience for a manky Stella and a comfortable view of the footy, but it's hard to imagine it was as good as the pub is now - albeit a subjective opinion.Taken over in 2017 by Luke & Heloise after a successful stint as landlords in Bristol at The Victoria Park, this family-owned, independent pub floats under the radar landing somewhere between those train stations you wake up at if you miss your stop at Surbiton although still not quite near anything. Walkable though, and an enjoyable one at that.The quaint backstreets of Long Ditton, various parks and a Cricket Green, give way to this inviting pub, that I've been drawn back to a handful of times, and another one where I wondered why I hadn't been there sooner.Met immediately with the bar, there's a healthy mix of accessible craft and it's fairly priced too. High Wire which I hadn't seen in ages was clocking in under £6, and it's the little touches like the matching glassware for Lervig, Tiny Rebel and Magic Rock that make the difference sometimes. Cask from locals such as Park Brewery too - you are spoiled for choice.Inside it's spacious, comfortable, and outside it's enclosed, quiet - a place for the kids to play and even space for the dog to run about. The staff are lovely and helpful, spoke to Luke for a bit too - always nice to meet the head honcho in these places.We came back for food again, there's loads to go at. From picky bits to pizzas and what was voted the best Roast Dinner in South England (2017) too. I'd imagine if people weren't desperate to go on their holidays, this place would usually be buzzing over the weekend.Shame it took me so long to find this pub, but it's one I'll be coming back to regularly. Just so happens to be at the end of one of the dogs favourite parks. Winner.
Generally, a not a bad pub, although a little expensive and decidedly unimpressive when it comes to food.The only downside is that it turns into a cross between oik central and a creche come the weekend.

This bar has a really nice selection of beers but unfortunately the current staff leave a lot to be desired.We arrived on a Friday evening and asked if the kitchen was still serving food. The girls behind the bar told us no as they don't have any kitchen staff. We did then ask if it would be ok if we ordered food from outside to be delivered to the pub and they said no. This was understandable, but we were then slightly disappointed when they ordered a pizza to be delivered to the pub and proceeded to eat it on the bar while laughing that we should have been better prepared and had dinner before coming to the pub. Not the most customer friendly attitude.

Avoid! Was aprehensive on arrival as for a Sunday lunchtime there were hardly any other diners, we were a table of 5 with a toddler and waited over 25mins after already seeing ourselves to menus due to slow and unresponsive bar staff, my partner then went to the bar to order drinks and food to be greeted by a relative of the bar staff who was unnecessarily rude and abusive and belittling for no apparent reason, so much so that we decided we could not stay. I will never be going back here, and would suggest if you are in the area to avoid unless you like slow and miserable service that you practically have to beg for!

Good atmosphere, beer and service. Too many burgers on the menu.
