Noteworthy Items
Every Monday evening Fox and Fiddle has 1/2 price wings night. This allows you to nab twice as many wings for the same price and during the same time bottles of beer are on sale for $3. You can eat the same and save some money or you can gorge yourself! The choice is ultimately yours.
On Sunday evenings, the Fox and Fiddle hosts free Pool games in their pub and you get a chance to use the tables they normally have without a cost attached. All domestic bottles of beer are $3 at the same time so you can enjoy a nice evening of beer and pool before the start of the work week.
Menu
The menu at Fox and Fiddle is similar to the menu you’d get at any pub, which can be a good thing (if you just want to grab a burger and watch the game) or a bad thing (if you’re looking for a long sit down dining experience), depending on who you are and what you want.
Fox and Fiddle offers various pub appetizers (like chicken wings), salads, burgers, sandwiches and other pub items such as fish and chips that do not fit into any of the previous categories. The quality of the food is above average and the price is reasonable (you can get a good meal for under $10, or a really good meal for under $20), which is something unexpected for a restaurant that mainly caters to students.

I love the name of the pub- Fox and Fiddle! Looks like a great place to hang out.
I love the name too
And it definitely is a great place to hang out. I’ve been there many times after class and the atmosphere is always upbeat. A fantastic place to go right after you’ve written a hard exam!
