Came here to say on a Thursday night and it wasn't too busy. Food was alright but the drinks were good and the bartender provided excellent service. Overall, it's a nice spot to enjoy a drink.

Paul Anka

Such a cute place ...like going back in time !! Andre was so personable and Johnny on the spot !!! He remembered our order exactly off the top of his head. We were there to see the Paul Anka concert across the street. Andre was able to jump around and help everyone!!! He was up the stairs , helping everyone in the bar and tables around the bar. Then he opened another door and there was another room ..like a hidden speakeasy from the 20s!! The food was delicious!!! It hit the spot. I had a cheddar burger and fries and house salad with blue cheese ! It was all literally to die for. We were in and out in one hour !!! Not to mention we had front row center seats to see Paul Anka and he was amazing and on point As always at the Gallo Center !!!!

a street scene at night - Nighttime scene featuring The Fox Pub, a bar with outdoor seating and illuminated signage, located on a street corner. The foreground displays a decorative crosswalk with white, curving lines and circular patterns. Several cars are visible on the street, and traffic lights are present at the intersection. The pub's interior is visible through windows, with patrons inside. The surrounding buildings are also illuminated, indicating an active nightlife area.

Came here on a Saturday night for a drink, after seeing a musical across the street at Gallo Center for the Arts. The decor reminded me of an old Irish bar-- shiny, lacquered wood, dark interior, older worn carpet. The staff was friendly, same for all the patrons. Inside it's a lively, loud place. We were lucky to find a seat at the bar, but additional tables are available up stairs. There's also seating out front. A special drink list sounded enticing, but we opted for the standby vodka/soda and a Redbull before getting back on the road to the Bay Area. We chose this for its proximity to the musical. It's also conveniently across the street from a paid parking lot I'd you can't find street parking.

The bald kitty is worth every sip! - A tall glass containing a red-colored cocktail with ice, garnished with a lime wedge and a straw, is positioned on a dark surface. The glass has a logo for Ballast Point Brewing Company. Next to the drink, a menu displays featured cocktails including Moscow Mule, Margarita, and others, indicating a bar or pub setting.

Don't let the outside scare you, this is a diamond in the ruff. I love the moody vibe and charming decor. This is a place you MUST come try. From the second my son and I walked in the door, the staff was friendly, kind and helpful. Although the upstairs is a little dated, it adds to the old world charm. The BLT is the best I have ever had. Bacon extra crispy (as it should be), fresh, crunchy lettuce and creamy avocado. My son had the house cheeseburger with bacon and onion strings and he said it was one of the best he's ever had. We both had the sweet potato fries, which were fantastic, crunchy on the outside and pillowie soft inside. Then there is the magic sauce. I can not even describe this golden goodness, except to say it's addictive. If you're unsure about what to order, as tour waitress. Ours was amazing and absolutely spot on with the cocktail. My son enjoyed it so much he even left her a sweet note.

I don't like my Moscow mule with a side of roach!

Was about to have what looked like a delicious Moscow mule. Instead of lime I got a roach garnish. Guess he wanted some to!

The Fox Club November 7th We got into town from LA on a Thursday afternoon and decided to check out The Fox Pub. It was late the afternoon, early evening time of the day so it wasn't too busy. We picked a spot at the bar. The bartender "Monica" was super cool. We ordered Fish and Chips, Artichoke Jalapeño Dip and the Chicken Club sandwich. Everything was delicious! Even the tortilla chips which came with the dip were crisp and tasty. We found out they are made regularly by Maria, Monica's mom. Talk about freshhhhh, crispy and authentic! We ordered a few Old Fashions to finish off our late lunch early dinner and they were spot on. Monica said they make them to perfection the in memory of one of their former mixologists "Josh" as it was one of his specialties and he was a master at his craft. Josh... You're name precedes you. Rest In Peace. This place was so good, we all returned again on Saturday night and met Collin and Mike who were super cool in making sure we all had a great time! My only wish is to have a Fox Club back home. Until then, we'll just keep stopping in every time we come back to Modesto to visit.

Fish and salad I already ate lol

Came here last night(8/6)with a friend and sat downstairs near the bar. For the life of me,I can't remember the bartenders name(brunette young man with a trimmed beard)but he was super amazing and helpful with food and business choices. We got here right at 6 ish when they opened. For a Friday it was nice and not packed,at least downstairs. But he said it would later. I had the fish and chips but with a salad. The fish was soo good. He said they lightly batter them then set them away and rebatter and fry when they are wanted. I think that's how he decstibed it. But it makes them soo good. My friend had the grill cheese and she liked it! I love the decor. Bathrooms were clean and big. Will stop in again!!

Great atmosphere and good food. Definitely a nice place to hangout with a group of friends for drinks and food.

Night out with the pham

Really awesome pub! Excellent staff! Really good bar style food! Our waitress was super friendly and knowledgeable about the rotating draft menu and didn't skip a beat when it came to our orders! The beer was fantastic! Especially the shadow puppet guava sour! All in all I enjoyed the experience, definitely will go back when in the area around dinner time on a Friday.

two bottles of corona beer - Two Corona Extra beer bottles with salted rims and lime wedges on top are positioned on a dark bar counter. The bottles are open, with condensation visible, and the salted rims are prominent. The background includes bar equipment, glasses, and a blurred bar environment, indicating a social or bar setting.

Love the Fox pub, always a good time with some of our favorite bartenders and waitresses. Mike, Joe, Lexi, Elias and the rest of the staff. Yummy bar food and drinks. Mike sure keeps those Coronas cold and best salt rim ever!! always have a chill time.

See all

Then I noticed the customers cars- all new nice vehicles (MBZ sedan, new Ford Bronco, Toyota 4-Runner, etc) The bar section was kind of crowded at 4:30pm, only a couple of seats open, so we sat in a funky raised booth with our backs to the window. Seemed like a lot of regulars as they all knew one another. Female bartender came out and took our beer orders and then brought menus. We ordered food (fish & chips, and a BLTA Club). Friend said they have great fish & chips and she was very pleased. i was surprised to find the BLTA far above my expectations for a pub. Fries were good too- perfectly cooked to a golden brown. I would go back for that sandwich when in that area of town. The food items were each just over $20-24, four beers $9 each. With tax and 20% tip it was just under $100 I'd go back 100%. Not a place I'd take a date, however.

The fish sandwich was ok, nothing to brag about. I have had much better and price was kinda high. Their churro desert with vanilla ice cream was amazing.

Stopped in about 1:30pm midweek for lunch. I had never been here, but found it online when…read moresearching for craft beer locations in the NE Modesto area. Inside room is ok, a bit cold feeling with concrete counters, floors, etc. There were several groups at the bar, 3-4 guys on one end, 2 guys at the other, so I sat in the middle. The first red flag was the female bartender, who was dressed in sweats and a ball cap, like she had just rolled out of bed. Very unprofessional, even for a beer/pub. She seemed disinterested in serving me and was more concerned about talking with the 4 guys. Then another guy & girl joined that group. They all knew one another, obviously regulars. The beer list was decent and well-balanced. 4 IPAs, a couple of Pils/Lager and Stout/Porters, Hazy IPAs, Cider/Selzer, and 4 grocery store beers: Coors Light, Modelo, Bud Light, and ? IPAs were from Henhouse, Drakes, Dust Bowl, and ? Large food menu for such a small place. From the bar, you can easily watch the cook on the flattop. After reading the list of sandwiches, I figured the turkey/ham/etc. was the Sysco-type, inexpensive kind, so I opted for a cheeseburger. Burger & fries arrived on a metal sheet pan. The burger looked good, and the fries looked a bit undercooked (not golden brown). Bun was toasted on the flattop and had a bit of mayo, no mustard, ketchup, etc. Fries came with a small 1oz thimble of ranch. As I suspected, the fries were undercooked. I cut the burger in half, and the center was undercooked. Then I noticed the burger patty was actually two thin patties pressed together. WTF? First bite was a warning- the meat had no seasoning and tasted like cardboard. Thankfully, I got a second beer and washed down the burger. Only ate half of the burger. I'm guessing they sell a lot of booze, because there is no way people are going for the food. I wouldn't be surprised if this place is closed by the end of 2026.

I would give it 5 stars for the friendly service! But I had to knock off 2 stars because what I ordered was not very good. I ordered the Thai tacos and they offered a low-carb version on a bed of lettuce instead of tortillas. The presentation was nice and I know they really tried, but it was pretty bad. The sauce tasted more like ketchup and did not taste like a Thai sauce at all. It was supposed to have chopped peanuts in it but it hardly had any. The chopped chicken pieces were drowned out by the ketchup tasting sauce. I thought there would be more avocado on it but there was only a tiny piece on each taco and they chose a bad avocado because the avocado was turning brown with stringy fiber in it. I couldn't eat it after a few bites. On the other hand hubby had fish and chips which he liked. The french fries were good. So my dish was a bomb while hubby's was decent and predictable. I would return if I'm in the area because the service is so friendly and nice, but I would not order that again. I would try something more mainstream that's hard to botch up like maybe a hamburger or a sandwich.

I am not mad not mad at that decision. The fish were what seemed like two whole filets with a beer batter that would knock your Sox off. Tender fish with a crispy batter. The batter on the onion rings was thick and crispy. SO GOOD!! The service was good super nice. You walk up to the counter and order. And I'm really not a fan of this for the fact, I tip small here. Thats just me. I want to give bigger but you didn't do anything yet. Give me some good customer service and I will give you a ble$$ing. Ambiance was ok.

The food was delicious but the service is very slow (probably because they make each meal as the order comes in). The dining space is very small but for a little hole in the wall restaurant it worked. I ordered a water and never received it. We also ordered coleslaw and didn't receive that either. I had to wait in line to ask for it. The staff were all very friendly. Maybe they just need to hire more help. I'm not sure we would make the trip out to Hughson again for their fish and chips but the food was really good.

Late lunch after tax appointment in Brentwood and going thru Livermore is always nice. If earlier we would have strolled thru town. We sat out front since such a nice day. Greeted and sat right away. Offered menus and my husband ordered a beer while I went restroom. This week's GC was Jalapeño Popper. So glad we split, with a side of onion rings. Perfectly grilled with all the cheese oozing out just enough. Husband enjoyed the Red Ale and I had the POG Spritzer from a local winery, very refreshing. After we walked in to check out the Beer Can Collection. Wow, amazing amount of cans. Tables and bar did look inviting so we may come back and sit inside next time. Servers were all kind!

Overall: 7/10 Food:…read more8/10 I got the grilled cheese of the week which was "The Ranchero". It consisted of sourdough fried with chorizo, tater tots, pickled jalepenos, American and pepper jack cheese with a choice of side. The side I got was onion rings. The crust of the grilled cheese came out crispy and there was plenty of meat on the inside. I did feel like it lacked a little bit of cheese to be called a grilled cheese. The pickled jalepenos offer a slight but very manageable spiciness. Onion rings were slightly bland and slightly soggy but did contain plenty of real onion on the inside. Environment: 9/10 A classic brick house sports bar with plenty of TVs. TVs could be a little bigger and the speaker system in the restaurant is a little weak. There are however plenty of seats and the sports bar filled up very quick. Service: 10/10 The waitress gave me the perfect amount of time to look over the menu before asking me what I wanted. She brought me an ice cold water immediately after I sat down and was constantly refilling my Coke Zero through the night
