Rex Rattus left this review about The Fox Inn & Restaurant
London Pride and Doom Bar were the old faithfuls on handpump. I was in here on Friday afternoon for a wake, so it was inevitably very crowded. They do food at lunchtimes (I saw some decent looking burgers sailing past), but I didn’t see the menu or get any idea of prices.
This is clearly an old pub set in the centre of Keston (which is not big), on the corner of Heathfield Road and Fox lane. But there’s nothing faintly old inside. They’ve put a few sofas as you go in on the right, but the rest of the furnishings look fairly standard issue. A smallish conservatory has been added at the back, which leads out to a terrace, and which in turn looks down to a grassed garden area with some picnic benches. I would say that the outside seating areas are this pub’s major assets, when the weather is good enough to enjoy them. There’s a small car park on the left of the pub.
This is a nice enough pub, and even though the ale choice is hardly inspiring it does do a couple of drinkable ales. However, the country pub exterior does flatter to deceive somewhat. But, having said that, I would be happy to visit again in the unlikely event that I found myself in Keston again.
