Fox & Goose

About

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Parracombe on Devon’s Exmoor Coast, the Fox & Goose Inn is a charming Victorian landmark that effortlessly blends historic charm with contemporary style. Open from Tuesday to Sunday, the pub offers a relaxed, laid‑back atmosphere where guests can unwind over a pint of locally brewed ale, cider, or a fine wine from the extensive on‑tap and bottle lists. Its dining hours coincide with the local culinary calendar, serving hearty Sunday roasts, summer barbecues, and a rotating seasonal menu that showcases the best of Devon’s fresh fish, game, and locally sourced produce. Head Chef Gabri brings an international flair to the menu with occasional themed evenings such as Lebanese food nights, making each visit a culinary adventure. Food at the Fox & Goose isn’t just about great flavours—it’s about celebrating community. The pub’s lunch service runs Friday to Sunday, while dinner is available Tuesday through Saturday evenings, with dedicated times for supper (6:30p.m.‑9p.m.) and afternoon teas where appropriate. Vegetarian and vegan choices are plentiful, and a welcoming “home‑cooked” breakfast is served in the morning, complete with tea, coffee, and homemade biscuits. Special events, including Christmas dinners, seasonal festivals, and New Year’s celebrations, are offered throughout the holiday season, each booked by phone or via the dedicated reservations email. Beyond the kitchen, the Fox & Goose also offers cozy accommodation. Four well‑decorated rooms feature under‑floor heated bathrooms, large rain showers, and plush bedding, creating a comfortable retreat after a day of walking in the surrounding Exmoor National Park. Guests can indulge in hearty breakfasts before heading back out to explore nearby attractions such as Holwell Castle, the historic village church of St Petrock, and the charming twin villages of Lynton and Lynmouth, all within a short drive along the A39. The inn prides itself on excellent service, dog friendliness, free Wi‑Fi, and ample parking, making it a convenient base for walkers, beach goers and history enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick pint, a full meal, or a night’s stay, the Fox & Goose Inn offers the quintessential Devon experience in a warm, welcoming environment.
