Contrary to popular belief, The Fox House was named after Mr Fox of Callow Farm in Highlow, not the small animal. Dating back to 1773, the building was extended by The Duke of Rutland, the landlord in the 1840’s. With years of heritage, The Fox House was a favoured resting place for livestock drivers and the passengers of stagecoaches.

Originally part of the Longshaw Estate, a beautiful area for ramblers, the 18th Century Fox House is well known. The large bottom room was known as The Duke’s Room because the Duke of Rutland sometimes slept there.

The Sunday roast dinner is a Great British pub-food tradition The Fox House wholeheartedly honour – and as a country pub, it’s our duty to offer the fine folk of Longshaw a fitting feast every weekend.

Tuck into Sundays, Vintage style

Sundays at your favourite Vintage are the perfect occasion to gather together your loved ones. We serve a minimum of two of the following hand-carved meats plus a vegetarian option, as always with crispy roast potatoes, fresh vegetables and lashings of gravy…

• Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding
• Roast turkey with stuffing
• Herb crusted loin of sweet-cured pork (sourced from one of the only specialist bacon and gammon curers in the UK still using traditional methods)
• Carrot and nut roast

To wash it all down, we recommend one of our fine wines or seasonal ask ales. Roast beef and real ale – now there’s a rare Sunday pairing.

Make your own traditions

Eating out at your local pub on Sunday isn’t just about the traditional roast. For example, we’ve got braised pork belly and lamb shank for those who prefer a twist on a classic.

At The Fox House, our freshly roasted Sunday dinners are very popular and whilst we try to serve them until 5pm, once they are gone that’s it until next Sunday! Book a table now to enjoy your Sunday roast with family and friends.
