A traditional Victorian pub on Lower Essex Street, and one of Birmingham’s longest-running LGBTQ+ pubs. It’s warm and unfussy, a particular favourite with the lesbian community, and everyone is welcome.

Great staff, great vibe, great crowd. I've gone here many times over the years and never really been disappointed. It offers its own unique experience. In comparison to the many venues available in the vicinity. There's a nice open area at the back. As well, which is good when it's a bit warm inside, and sometimes there's a nice act going on out the back. Sometimes the loos can get a bit busy, but if you're kind of relaxed on the details; You'll surely find somewhere to go!

The Fox is a lovely gay bar with a great atmosphere and a consistently friendly, welcoming crowd. The outdoor seating area is lush, and they also have drag acts and karaoke which make for some great entertainment. The bar itself is on the smaller side, but it has a cosy feel and the atmosphere more than makes up for it. My only criticism would be the rickety benches outside, a change to more comfortable seating would definitely be an improvement. Overall, a great spot for a relaxed and fun night out.
