Reservations are for food bookings only – all drinks are first come, first served.

Not trying too hard, not overly complicated, and EXACTLY what you are looking for; our menu is the fox's knees. We have got a great selection of Scottish beers on tap, and have recently created an extensive cocktail menu for you to sip on while you catch up with friends. From the kitchen, you can expect feel good pub dishes with a twist made from fresh, seasonal ingredients – we think yer granny would even approve!

Foxes might not be great at sports (it’s hard when you can’t even wear shoes) but that doesn’t stop us from watching all the big games! We have all Sky Sports & BT channels so can show everything from the Scottish Premiership & International Football to the Grand National and Wimbledon. Swing by, pull up a pew and catch all of the action.

Great wee pub for a catch up, staff were brilliant, only gripe was the size of the portions, ordered the special, beef tacos, portions were tiny. No issue with the quality of the food or service but would suggest either consider increasing portion sizes or offering an increase in quantity.

First time visiting the Smokin Fox and will definitely be back. The food was outstanding and the service was first class, very friendly and very welcoming and the venue had a really nice vibe about it too. The Korean chicken and buttermilk chicken burgers are must try options on the menu. Thanks for a great afternoon!

Overall food was very good, and service was good. It was a quiet lunchtime and we just had main courses. Everyone cleaned their plates, (Except me, as i chose a plant/celeriac steak choice which i didn't like that much, but not because it wasn't cooked well). Value was so-so, but the cost of eating out has soared and expectations for quantities and qualities for the £12-£15 per main course still need to align! I'd go back though.

Sunday lunch. Football was on but did not disturb diners. Dining area was separate. Good atmosphere and staff were lovely. Two had Katsu Curry which we both enjoyed, one had Cod Loin which she said was delicious. Cocktails and wine reasonably priced, then Raspberry Ruffle dessert which was lovely - a bit solid but once thawed, delicious. Spacious bar with lovely staff centrally located for trains and bus routes.

Service was rather poor and slow. Felt unwelcome, having been before and it was great. We were rather disappointed this time. However, food was good but not the dining experience wasn’t worth a £18 service charge.
