The Running Fox

About The Running Fox

Right in the middle of the village, this is the kind of stop that works when everyone's hungry at once — buggy-friendly inside, plus a garden area out front where a pram can sit and children can wriggle without bothering anyone. The team here are quick and genuinely kind, the sort who notice when a table needs something before you ask. Portions are big enough to share: sausage rolls, proper pies, and a cake counter that will keep a small person occupied for the length of a coffee. The eggs benedict on cheese scones is a local favourite. Two honest snags — it books up, so ring ahead at weekends, and parking nearby can be tight, though there's free parking to be had. Kids' menu, high chairs and vegan options all covered, and dogs are welcome inside too.
