| Great gastropub in pleasant surroundings. Pork belly was fantastic. Harveys Best and Doom Bar available but kept way too cold. JonW999 - 24 Oct 2011 21:19 |
| We've eaten at the Ginger Fox several times in the last year or so - sometimes for lunch and sometimes for dinner. The food, without exception, has been excellent and the service equally so. It's not cheap - Brighton prices - but the menu is good and the cooking very good. If there have been off days, we haven't seen them yet. Will_Fly - 1 Oct 2011 18:02 |
| I have been to this place 3 times in the last couple of years. Its more of a restaurant than a pub. Its not nearly as good as the original Gingerman in Hove which is part of the same group. Like many similar establishments in West Sussex, it is expensive and in my opinion considerably overpriced but the food is quite good. brucelambert - 17 Mar 2011 11:48 |
| We visited the Ginger Fox for the first - and probably the last - time in early September 2010. We had pre-lunch drinks sitting in the sunshine in the very agreeable garden. Then we moved inside for the meal. The front-of-house staff were courteous and efficient but their performance was not matched by their colleagues in the kitchen. The food was mediocre at best. Two of us had beef lasagne which resembled no lasagne we had ever tasted before. The beef mince was coagulated into unpleasant lumps, the lasagne pasta was meagre and tasteless, there was no bechamel sauce and the whole dish was swimming in excess liquid. In fact, we had to ask for spoons to cope with this travesty of a beef lasagne. The meals eaten by the other members of our party were not as bad as the lasagne but the portions were very small and the overall standard was disappointing for an establishment which describes itself as a "foodie pub." To sum up, we all concluded that this lunch represented very poor value for money. felbridge - 2 Sep 2010 18:24 |
| This is now the Ginger Fox, part of the Gingerman Group. My partner took me there for a birthday treat last April and we were both really looking forward to it. What we found was disappointment. The d�cor was cold an unattractive and the drinks were expensive. My main course was basically �steak and chips,� no roll and butter, no side dish, no salad, and no garnishes � all for �16.50 (side dishes were an extra at �2.50 each). My partner�s duck portion was smaller than his chocolate dessert and our coffee was so strong it was barely drinkable. We came away very disappointed, drove home and had a sandwich. brightonboy3449 - 22 Jan 2009 09:32 |
