Steeped in as much history as the nearby city of York, our name The Fox and Roman reflects the building’s former use as The Fox Hotel and also to a Roman grave found on the site in 1833, we even have a few artefacts on display. The Fox Hotel used to stable racehorses and we still welcome friendly crowds of race goers on race days at the nearby York Racecourse.

Opposite the gates to York Racecourse, the Fox & Roman is a sure bet with guests. Handy for York, there are many Roman remains in the area and sites of historic interest to intrigue visitors.

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