Revealing ....

We are excited to share the new logo for The Fox at Ryton!

We’ve been keeping this under wraps, but we couldn’t keep it to ourselves any longer! Over the last few months, we have been working with a brand manager ‘Lou&You’ who has family connections in Ryton, and a focus group from across the community, to develop the brand for The Fox. More than just a logo (which we hope you’ll love), the brand sets out what we want The Fox to ‘look and feel’. You’ll start to see this across all our communication, and it has shaped the plans for the interior design, customer experience plans, and more …

Our new General Manager Steve has really hit the ground running …

·       Breweries and other bar suppliers are in place and ready to install equipment – Steve has a great line up of ales and wines for you

·       We are actively hiring for a chef

All the nitty gritty details to get ready for opening are well underway (tills, policies, waste, …)

Latest Reno progress:

·       There’s paint on the walls! The upstairs flat is coming together with the bedrooms painted and bathrooms in process of being installed (shout-out to Nic, Mick & Sarah!). We are working hard to get it ready for Steve and Sacha to move in

·       The bar is under construction from locally sourced oak – we can’t wait to see it in situ

Some extra, unforeseen work in the cellar is taking place. The cellar ceiling needed replacing and it is a great opportunity to install insulation and make the room above more cosy

Finally, thank you to the team working on the interior design: making soft furnishings, sourcing furniture, ordering signage, sourcing pictures.  We can’t wait to see it all in place!
