The Fox is a traditional English-style pub sitting beside Westfield Mall in the heart of Riccarton, Christchurch — the self-styled home of live sport, delicious pub fare and proper pints. It manages a rare double act: a homely, welcoming feel for a quiet lunch or a catch-up over coffee, and a vibrant, buzzing atmosphere when the big game is on. As a Christchurch staple, the team here values every customer who walks through the door and is eager to keep building on a tradition of good service, good value and good times.
Sport is central to life at The Fox. Twelve big TV screens show live sport year-round, with big games creating a cracking atmosphere that rivals being at the real thing. The All Blacks, Crusaders and the Warriors are regular features, alongside cricket, football and basketball — and other sports are available on request.
The bar proudly pours the best New Zealand brands, including Cassels and Monteith's, alongside international names such as Heineken, with fresh juices and coffee for those not drinking. The kitchen offers a wide selection of delicious meals and dependable pub classics. Open every day from 11am until late, dog friendly, and welcoming to supervised under-18s, The Fox also takes bookings for tables and functions.
