We have been going to have breakfast here for some time after friends recommend it but never quit got there, finally we made it and it did not disappoint the staff were attentive from the minute we walked through the door and the food did not disappoint either it was beautiful I had the Foxe's breakfast and my hubby had the pancake stuck, I love pancakes on there own so we will defiantly be going back so I can have them with just syrup no butter or added extras just pancakes and lots of syrup 🥞🥞🥞

The drinks are so good from here it's a nightmare to choose what to have (better problems to have!). The coffee and the milkshakes are amazing, and I love the quesadillas too. Always busy, very popular. It's a good sign when you can't get a table or there's a wait for food? Maybe we need foxes Mark 2? �

See my recommendation. Great place! The coffee is an attraction, but it's the atmosphere and staff that make it the place to chill while you are working or socialising :-)

My name is jaymes I am 7 years old and I am here with my granddad and my mam the food is delicious and the service is amazing too �� #foxescafe

Just visited here and just had the Best coffee I've had for a long time. I also had the veggie breakfast which was gorgeous my hubby had the full fox breakfast we will be back x

It's such a cozy little place, with excellent foods and even better service. Nothing is too much trouble.

I had a thoroughly enjoyable evening here for the fundraiser, the atmosphere was lovely and relaxed and it was just a good time. Would certainly attend similar events here as well as visit the venue again in general!

Friendly atmosphere, Great service, fab good and drink. It's a lovely chilled out place to grab some food or sit with coffee and cake and watch the world go by.

Found this wee place by chance. Ordered a smoothie and a bit of Red Velvet cake. Both were amazing . Friendly staff. Reasonably priced . Will definitely be back . �

First time I've been and had a lovely time today. Thanks! Food was tasty, as were the drinks plus friendly staff. Glad to have found a new cafe in Carlisle. :)

Every bit as good as it has been each time I visit, both the food, coffee and service :)

Came to the cabaret on Thursday and it was amazing brilliant staff, great atmosphere and milkshakes are to die for! Came in again this afternoon and the macaroni is amazing!

Best coffee, best staff and awesome Grilled American toastie, excellent place

Although everything on the menu is amazing.. the pancakes are to die for!! Couldn't recommend this place anymore than I already do! Great place to go!

Absolutely amazing we'll be back. It was my first visit today after being recommended by so many people. I was a total piggy and had the Fox Breakfast and the Fox Hot chocolate. Quite simply the best breakfast ever! The service was perfect so welcoming and friendly. It was the best possible start to my 40th birthday today thanks guys xxx

Visited for 1st time for brunch, had the tampa bay stack which was lovely, also got 2 lattes which I found to be a little weak in taste.

Maybe I could ask for an extra shot next time ??

Met up with friends.....wouldn't say I was overly enthusiastic about menu . Had nachos as nothing else jumped out at me. Friends had mac cheese which came in a cup n saucer (Not much to it) ...pancakes that were coming out looked lovely but thought these were only served till 12 so would go back at some point and try these .

Been here with two other friends for lunch on Easter Monday as I heard good reports about this place however when I received my order I was a bit disappointed I ordered the garlic steak burger which was about £10 and when the burger came it did not have taste to it all and unfortunately didn't taste like a steak burger I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon. However have to mention that the staff were polite and smiling which was good.

Visited today with my 3 year old.

Initially ordered the sausage and damson chutney sandwich to be told afterwards they had no sausage. (A Monday and not at the end of lunch serving ) I did however order a cheese sandwich at £5.20 , which actually is the cheapest on their menu. Value for money it is not; the side salad was over powered by too much balsamic dressing to enjoy the few leaves and one slice of of cucumber.

My 3 year old ordered a tuna sandwich from the childs menu which does state no salad. It arrived, no frills, as described but their was chopped peppers and red onion in what was described as a tuna mayo sandwich. I think for a kids menu especially, this needs mentioned as a fussey toddler wasn't keen.



At no point did any staff approach us to ask of all was ok with our food. The waitress that served us for the majority appeared only concerned in -getting the job done' and had no personality or warmth in serving.

For two sandwiches we waited for a very long time.

Lastly the visit to the ladies was not what you would expect from a food establishment given it's cleanliness.

This place was recommended to us but I shall not be returning. Needs a good clean and it's over priced.
