I returned to The Fox at Penllyn over the weekend for a birthday celebration, and I'm glad to say this gem continues to exceed expectations. The menu strikes that perfect balance between creative flair and comforting classics, with every dish delivering impressive flavour at prices that are good value for money. The cheese & bacon burger remains an absolute showstopper. Meanwhile, the braised pork cheek was rich, full of flavour, and showcased real culinary skill. The team strike that ideal balance of being attentive without hovering, friendly without being overfamiliar, and genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. They clearly take pride in what they do, and it shows. Whether you're celebrating something special or simply looking for a tasty meal, The Fox at Penllyn deserves a spot on your must-visit list. I'll certainly be back for a third visit soon! Price per person: £30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
