You know when you’re traveling and you find a restaurant that’s so relaxing and welcoming you just wished it was local to where you lived? Introducing The Limping Fox. Located on a residential street, the environment was overwhelmingly friendly- the staff so helpful and kind, even the patrons (and their dogs!) had a quick hello and a few words of good cheer! The food excellent and the environment relaxed and open. Welcome to all- children and dogs too! Definitely worth a visit. Grateful to have visited.

Those who follow these pubs from a local perspective will remember this as being "The New Inn" until around 2017. Heard mixed reviews from various people on the previous incarnation, I'm not one to drag on a pub for being bad, there is always an audience for a manky Stella and a comfortable view of the footy, but it's hard to imagine it was as good as the pub is now - albeit a subjective opinion.
Taken over in 2017 by Luke & Heloise after a successful stint as landlords in Bristol at The Victoria Park, this family-owned, independent pub floats under the radar landing somewhere between those train stations you wake up at if you miss your stop at Surbiton although still not quite near anything. Walkable though, and an enjoyable one at that.
The quaint backstreets of Long Ditton, various parks and a Cricket Green, give way to this inviting pub, that I've been drawn back to a handful of times, and another one where I wondered why I hadn't been there sooner.
Met immediately with the bar, there's a healthy mix of accessible craft and it's fairly priced too. High Wire which I hadn't seen in ages was clocking in under £6, and it's the little touches like the matching glassware for Lervig, Tiny Rebel and Magic Rock that make the difference sometimes. Cask from locals such as Park Brewery too - you are spoiled for choice.
Inside it's spacious, comfortable, and outside it's enclosed, quiet - a place for the kids to play and even space for the dog to run about. The staff are lovely and helpful, spoke to Luke for a bit too - always nice to meet the head honcho in these places.
We came back for food again, there's loads to go at. From picky bits to pizzas and what was voted the best Roast Dinner in South England (2017) too. I'd imagine if people weren't desperate to go on their holidays, this place would usually be buzzing over the weekend.
Shame it took me so long to find this pub, but it's one I'll be coming back to regularly. Just so happens to be at the end of one of the dogs favourite parks. Winner.
Delicious food, great service and friendly, attentive staff. Puddings were enormous. Really recommend!
Just a drinks only visit and they do a pretty good selection of keg beers including Paulaner lager.
The garden is very nice too, although it can be overrun by kids at times.
The staff are pretty friendly and inside the ecclesiastical furniture is quite quirky.
I’ve heard good things about the food too, but haven’t indulged as yet.
A nice quiet spot in a pleasant setting and worth popping by.
Superb Friday evening meal and drinks. Great atmosphere, nicely busy, lovely staff and yummy food and drinks selections... what more is there to say! THANK YOU!
Great community pub, with some excellent options on tap. Light and airy with a big beer garden out back.
What a find! We stopped in for an impromptu supper, fish and chips, a couple of burgers and the toad in the hole. We all agreed our food was excellent. The service was great too, really friendly staff who were genuinely interested that we were satisfied. Well worth a visit, but be warned, you won't be the only ones there.
Nice family run pub with garden. All local cast beers from across Surrey. Food is excellent & a great choice. It is slightly more expensive but in this case you get what you pay for.
Well renovated pub with delicious food and a great beer selection hidden away from the centre. The staff are very friendly.
Great Sunday Roast. Also a nice play area at the back with a slide. Would recommend and food is great
I really like this place. The pub is clean, staff friendly and the food is good quality. Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the music is often too loud or inappropriate for the clientele / type of evening - think electronic dance music or hard alternative during typical dinner hours with all clientele above the age of 40 😂
Had a lovely Sunday afternoon here with some friends. The roast was great, the staff were super friendly and the pub is nice and light inside and nicely furnished. Would recommend!
Nice pub. Was pretty lively on a Thursday night.
Great selection of international beers. Excellent food. Large heated outdoor area. Beer garden and kids play area. Local favourite.
The roasts here are top notch. Seriously worth it. I had the roast chicken and without exaggeration, it was the best I've had (sorry Mum). Nice interior too and friendly staff.
Nice food and good selection of beer. Nice garden to sit in too.
