The Fox in York
Set in the Holgate district of York lies The Fox, a pub whose history is inextricably linked to the golden age of rail.
In the spring of 2014, after years of neglect, the distinct Ossett style was applied, sympathetically restoring this magnificent gem. The pub boasts Yorkโs largest beer garden and has the distinction of being a blue plaque heritage inn, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking out the cityโs finest watering holes.

Collaboration Beer Tasting ๐ป
Thursday 1st February from 8pm
Meet the brewers and taste the new collaboration beer fresh from the pumps at The Fox ๐ฆ
Here's what to expect โคต๏ธ
What the Dickens ?!
A 6% heritage Victorian porter. Amber, brown and smoked malts combine to create a moderately full-bodied and warming beer with residual sweetness, a creamy mouthfeel and flavours of chocolate, toffee and smoke. Bitterness is low, but the addition of English Goldings hops results in a delicate herbal/earthy aroma.
MERRY CHRISTMAS ๐
We hope everyone has a joy-filled day full of laughter, love and of course beer ๐ป
