The Fox

The Fox is a welcoming LGBTQ+ pub in the heart of Birmingham's Gay Village, known for its friendly atmosphere, community spirit, and lively entertainment. Often described as a little gay bar with a big gay heart, the venue has been a fixture of Birmingham's LGBTQ+ scene since 1997, with a particular focus on welcoming LGBTQ+ women alongside the wider queer community and their friends.

The Fox offers a relaxed alternative to the city's larger nightclubs, combining traditional pub character with a sociable, inclusive atmosphere. Guests can enjoy karaoke every Friday, Saturday DJ parties, live acoustic music, drag performances, cabaret, quizzes, and special themed events. Sundays offer a more laid-back experience, with opportunities to enjoy drag entertainment, karaoke, and drinks with friends.

The bar serves a varied selection of beers, ciders, wines, spirits, cocktails, and shots, with drinks promotions to suit different budgets. There's also a dedicated pool room for friendly games and a private rear beer garden with outdoor seating, lighting, and covered areas, making it a popular spot for socialising throughout the year.

Beyond its entertainment programme, The Fox plays an active role in Birmingham's LGBTQ+ community. It supports local LGBTQ+ sports teams and social groups, including Birmingham Swifts running club and Birmingham Blaze football team, and hosts community gatherings for different age groups. The venue also takes part in Birmingham Pride celebrations, reflecting its long-standing commitment to inclusion and community connection.

Whether you're looking for Friday-night karaoke, a Saturday party, a relaxed drink in the beer garden, or a friendly place to meet people, The Fox offers a welcoming LGBTQ+ space where community comes first.
