The Fox On The Hill

Was a guest here for a going away party and had a wonderful time. We only drank the tap ciders but they were delicious. Staff was fun and attentive. The locals swear this is the cheapest pub in London and they’d like it to stay a secret. Oops.
Denmark Hill is a very nice part of town. Take the London Overground and get off at Denmark Hill and walk up the hill — the Fox on the Hill is just 2 minutes.

Reasonably priced huge Wetherspoons pub with outdoor seating. Food comes out of the kitchen extremely quickly. The bar prefers cash payments. Assertive queueing is required to get served. Can’t say that I would frequent this location regularly but I have friends who are fans of this chain so pop into here from time to time.

Alright let’s star out with the basics.
We seated ourselves and you need to order up at the bar. REMEMBER YOUR TABLE NUMBER. You’re going to need to give it to the bartender who takes your orders. So when you’re ready to order make your way up to the bar and place your order as well as your drinks. Your drinks will come out immediately and you can bring them to your table.
NOW WAIT. It took about 8 minutes to get 3 dishes out. Fish and chips, steak, and a vegetable burger. All were fantastic by the way. The food is very affordable so it’s a great time with friends.
Now when you’re done you can just leave when you’re ready because you already paid at the counter!
I’m not sure why this has low reviews. The place is very affordable and the food is pretty good for your money. I recommend going here with some friends to have a drink, food, and a good time!

This place is off the grid for most Londoners, because it does require travel on either a bus or an overground to get there. However, it’s actually on a hill, has EXTREMELY well-​priced and great selection of pints (especially for London), and boasts a lovely area to hang around, if you’re looking to relax. Also, it’s across the street from a gorgeous garden, and has awesome pot roast. I highly recommend this place, especially if you’re already in the area and are looking for somewhere to go and something to do. It’s good on all days, and has happy hour specials. Good pub to bring family to, too, and they also showed all the World Cup games, which was a big plus!

Came here for cheap drinks and cheap food. Fun place to be, but as long as you expect what you get from a Wetherspoons!

The Fox on the Hill seems to be that type of place which locals go to and keep going to either because it is local or because of the company they get there.
Branded as a family pub, well, you find families there! Not the place to go to if you do not want to have kids around you when you are out. There is a restaurant area serving pub grub so don’t go there if it is a culinary delight you are after. However, food is fitting if you are going their for a drink with friends and family and you want a bite to eat at the same time. Prices are great if you are used to the city/​west end prices on your liquor! Felt that I could have bought a round of drinks for the whole pub and still get change out of what I would spend on a round of drinks for 4 friends up town!
You create your atmosphere as there is no loud music drowning out conversation (so make sure you go with people you want to talk to!). There is an outside area which is nice to sit in when the sun manages to shine.
All in all, an easy place to meet up with friends an family and have a cheap get together.

This pub is great! I went there for a drink on Christmas Eve and I liked it… Yes it’s a Wheterspoon Pub but I think it’s one of the nicer ones for sure. I can only imagine how great it’s gonna be in the summer!
Me and my friends had a booth and it was a fun night. Sadly they didn’t serve food when we came in but having a drink or two is always a great option too: D

food is great i eat there alot and the prices are good. i have never been there after 9pm as i have a young child and children are not allowed there after 9pm so i can only comment on how it is before 9pm and its great.

I must agree with the first two reviewers, this pub is ok if you stay away, the inside has seen better days, as like all wetherspoons their glasses are never clean, you should always wipe your shoes on leaving the pub. Didn’t even attempt to eat

This pub is fine for those rare summer days when you want to have a drink in a nice outside setting. Unfortunately, the British weather rarely permits this and the inside of the pub is so neglected that for most of my time there I was sticking to the carpet. I stayed only long enough to finish my drink.

An alright place for a cheap drink or, cheap date even (only if you want to go home alone).
Some staff are rather rude depending on who you go to.
Nice area out back for smokers, but sadly the garden closes at 11pm.

I have a vast shortage of local pubs which is probably the only reason that I have been to the Fox on the Hill.
When the weather is decent enough to sit outside you can make the most of the numerous seating areas and beer gardens out the front and back of the pub.
Inside it is just what you would expect from a Wetherspoons, dirt cheap drinks but rather neglected and vulgar décor in traditional pub style.
Despite a longer journey, it is definitely a better option to walk past the Fox on the Hill in order to find an alternative probably more expensive but nice pub.

A Wetherspoons pub, and a good one at that. Located at the top of Denmark Hill out of the bustle of Camberwell it has a large beer garden for the summer, and is large enough inside that you can usually find a table or booth.
Food and drink is typical cheap Wetherspoon’s fare and I recommend the mixed grill of dubious meats along with a larger top as a hangover cure on Sunday afternoons or headed there early in the morning for a cheap breakfast and pint.
