About The Dog & Fox

The Dog & Fox stands as a testament to London's great pub tradition, occupying a handsome Victorian corner building in Battersea that has remained largely unchanged for over a century. The interior celebrates classic pub design with its original tilework, etched glass panels, and mahogany bar, while the working fireplace creates a cozy focal point during winter months.

The pub's commitment to real ale excellence shows in its rotating selection of cask-conditioned beers from both established breweries and innovative craft producers. Regular ale festivals and meet-the-brewer events demonstrate the pub's dedication to beer culture, while also offering a solid selection of wines and spirits for non-ale drinkers.

The kitchen focuses on time-honored British pub food executed with care and quality ingredients, from steak and kidney pie to bangers and mash, alongside daily specials that reflect seasonal availability. The pub's strong community ties show in its regular quiz nights, dominoes leagues, and charity fundraisers that bring together locals of all ages in true London pub tradition.
