Three Hundred Years at the Crossroads
The Fox family has kept this bar since the early 1700s. Eight generations. The original bar and bottling shed from those first years still stands next door, a stone's throw from where Jimmy Fox pulls pints today.
The current premises was built in the mid-1980s, right beside the old place. But the feel has not changed. Fox's is still what it has always been - the pub where the parish meets, the shop where you pick up the paper, the place where Saturday night means music and Sunday night means more music.
This is not just a pub. It is a grocery, a hardware store, and a filling station. In a townland like Tooman, one place does everything. Fox's is that place, and the Fox family has made sure of it for three centuries.
Bridie tends bar. Peader, who played for the Leitrim GAA team, has his picture on the wall. Jimmy and Kathleen Fox run the show. The pints are EUR 5 and the welcome is free.

What You'll Find
More than a pub. In a townland like Tooman, one place does everything.
Every Weekend
Live Music
Saturday & Sunday Night
The tradition goes back decades. Pull up a stool, grab a EUR 5 pint, and settle in for a night of music at Fox's. Country, traditional, whatever the evening brings - it always brings good craic.
