When William the third went out hunting in West Sussex there was one place he would take his royal hunting party for refreshments and that was a beautiful inn set in the countryside of the Goodwood estate. Today, the inn, perhaps ironically named The Fox Goes Free, has maintained its four hundred year old character by preserving many of the original features including, the bread oven, inglenook fireplaces, low beamed ceilings and brick floors.

The daily changing menu brings to table dishes such as pan-fried chicken breast wrapped in Parma ham with creamed leeks and a red wine and roast partridge with cabbage and bacon and redcurrant. A popular item at the bar is homemade lasagna with chips and salad and sausage and mash with onion gravy and vegetables. Other specialities include fresh butcher's sausage with caramelized onions and sirloin steak with red onions.

A wide selection of beers and ales from the cask and well chosen wines complete the list of attractions.
