Fox and Coney in East Riding of Yorkshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

A beautiful home made steak pie cooked to perfection, with chips, vegetables & gravy.

This wonderful pub was a real find! We walked in with our dog hoping to get late lunch and were greeted by friendly smiling barman, who made us feel very welcome. Heidi was offered biscuits and fuss and we had a delicious lunch.

Excellent food and a lovely place to visit, there is also a great out door area to drink and eat. The pub has rooms too, for those who want an overnight stay.

As a couple with two dogs, we booked a last minute overnight stay over the phone and we were not disappointed. On arrival a pleasant chap checked us in and showed us where we would be sitting for our dinner reservation. We mentioned again that we had two dogs and he said they could stay in the room (this was a bonus as one of our dogs is a big clumsy handful). The room had everything we needed with a good shower, nice pillows and tea and coffee facilities. They even provide use of a percolator for the fresh ground coffee sachets, and also take-away coffee cups (nice touch). The food was delicious, we had camembert sharer for starters and burgers for mains. A memorable stay for us for our 10 year anniversary together and also after 4 nights camping, so the luxury was very welcome. The staff are efficient and pleasant. We would definitely return.

Stayed over while doing the wolds way. Had a great dinner of steak pie and chips which really good and filling. Drank the wold top beer which was really good and well kept. Breakfast cooked by Vic had plenty of choice and again very good. I had the eggs royale along with serial and toast. The staff were hard working and very pleasant. Waited on by Holly both in the evening and breakfast next day and nothing was too much trouble despite being very busy. A really good stay

Stopped for food only, could do better… Some Elemis of the food where great the fillet steak and Lamb where super. My wife had the Chicken Kiev was set, over cooked and little sauce. The Camembert was tiny for two people and at £16 expensive. The staff were friendly but not enough of them. Pleaee take this feedback as it intended .

The food has always been somewhere between ‘its amazing’ and ‘let’s not eat here again’. Unfortunately it’s not great at the moment. Prices are up but quality is down for what should be fairly basic, like make sure it’s hot. We were tempted by steak but at £64/couple decided to test out snacks and sides after a string of average meals and glad we did as they were just disappointing. It’s a lovely pub to drink in. The staff are usually friendly, recently lots of new faces and wonder if this extends to the kitchen and some inexperience, but you can’t charge Star in Sancton prices and serve service station quality.

I know things may have changed since 1985 when I was a waiter, we were told not to be chatterboxes talking about nights out etc but the two girls just needed to keep quiet and serve simples. They were the noisiest in there just not required oh and food was pretty good. Cruzcampo was lovely just needed a better atmosphere💁🏻

This is a brilliant restaurant, I was stranded in south cave with no phone charge worried, the service was amazing and very helpful the staff were very friendly especially will and got my phone charged so I can get home safely would recommend

Food very poor Beef very tough couldnt even cut roast pots

Great restaurant to eat. Very friendly staff. Delicious food.

First visit & certainly won’t be the last. Staff friendly & welcoming & food was delicious!Highly recommended. Many thanks!

Accommodation is reasonably priced & quite comfortable. The breakfast is good & the service quick. The food in the evening is expensive for what it is, taste & quality varies as does the service.

Great little pub, beautifully done up with a lovely dining area and outdoor beer garden

We were shown to a nice table by a poor waitress. Drinks were plonked on the table by the same girl. Our first cause of prawns with chilli sauce was very nice . This was when things went down hill . My wife had scampi which was over cooked . My pie looked like someone had sat on it but tasted ok. The three times cooked chips were the worst chips I have ever had like crisps and cold. During our meal a large party moved into the next table which made talking impossible. My friend did complain on the way out but I will just not go again .

Great food lovely atmosphere, ideal for romantic meal. Didn't stay in rooms so can't rate them. Staff lovely.

Food was poor at best - was served the wrong starter to start with, and then charged me for it….which was acknowledged and then was served a roast dinner that was so dry it was like it came from the Sahara desert… Disappointed and a very very poor reflection on its sister pub Triton. Won’t be returning unless dragged kicking and screaming!! Disappointed and Shocked! Paid in full with a complaint Service was really good, chefs need to take a look at themselves, roast potatoes really dry!! Poor poor poor!

Enjoyed a lovely evening at the Fox and Coney Inn. The food was excellent. i recommend the meat 'filled' pie...and it was filled!!! The staff were very friendly and helpful. Thank you to our waitress Megan for making our evening a really nice experience. We also enjoyed a drink in the lovely garden...with heaters provided ... before heading home. We will def drink & eat here again.

Delicious food in lovely surroundings

Decided for this place out of reviews after a long day... Disappointing food.. From portion to taste... I don't normally leave reviews, but this was bad.

Last minute decision for a night away, rang to book a room and they sorted a table for an evening meal. Staff very pleasant and professional, room was very clean and really nicely refurbished and a lovely ensuite bathroom. Evening meal was outstanding, best steak pie I have ever had and great service although very busy. Great stay, would happily recommend and will definitely be back. Keep up the good work

Great atmosphere and very tasty small plates. Friendly and attentive staff. Clean environment. Love that this is our local!

The fox and Coney is a lovely.pub with great staff and good food. It was very busy but we were made most welcome will.definktely be back. Anne walker

Excellent food choice and quality. Just turned up & they accomodated us. Service attentive & we didn’t wait long. Very generation portions and plentt of space but cosy

12 chips per portion £5 I'm sure weights and measures is there for a reason .Maybe they should go visit .Not good enough!!!!

The first time I've eaten here, will certainly be visiting again to try something else other than this duck dish, The food is cooked perfectly, excellent service and a very cosy atmosphere! Thanks see you again!

We were in the area and looking for a place to eat at short notice and the Fox & Coney came up. Booked online and headed straight there. Shown to a table on arrival. Looked after nicely by the staff drinks arrived promptly as did the main meals. Nice portion sizes for both the Scampi and the fish and chips and the meals were spot on. We decided to have puddings and the crème Brulee and cheese cake were both lovely. Was a little pricey and the service charge was added to the bill before we had a say in it. But over all a good experience and would recommend.

I stayed here 5 years ago when it first opened and I'm pleased to say the same high standards prevail. The rooms are comfortably furnished with many extras that make them more than a home from home. Their presentation is superb and I can hardly credit that 5 years have passed. The food is excellent and the staff are friendly and obliging. A very well deserved 5 stars!

We met friends here for a meal last week . The service was very good the food and drink were excellent. We will definitely go back again. The only downfall was a small carpark for around a dozen or so cars could do with more parking spaces with the amount of people eating. But apart from that we would all recommend the fox for a great meal with the same amount of service. Thank you and hope to be back when we four of us get the chance..

Me and my partner came for a meal for the first time and was blown away by the food quality, there’s a very nice all year round outdoor area for drinks too.

Very tasty meals. Very friendly snd observing Personal.

Stayed in master Suite, grubby and in need of tlc! Lot of mould, hole in ceiling, wall light falling off, bathroom door did not close, poor lighting, tv wonky …. I could go on… never again! Would not recommend, see photos

An update 14/03/24. Called in this evening to share a few pints with friends. Pub and restaurant were moderately busy. We saw food being served in the bar which looked really good. We decided to sample the "own label" ale of the F&C. I believe it is actually rebranded Sleck dust. It was a good pint and at £3.50 all three of us stayed with this choice for the evening. The pub was warm, comfortable and welcoming. ---- A cold winter's day, warming fire, good pint of ale, good food. Can't be beaten. Called in for lunch, sat by the fire. I had home made fish finger sandwich with the freshest white crusty bread. My wife had garlic mushrooms on toasted sourdough. Both excellent. Really good ale. Memorable!

Had dinner here. It has a great atmosphere and ambience. The food and service were good. Slight negatives while located in the village high street which is handy if local, for those like us who dive there parking both on street and in the inn's car park is limited. Also quite busy midweek so recommend booking in advance.

Four of us went for an evening meal and it was lovely. The service was a bit patchy but we put it down to the fact they were young waiters/waitresses. The food was excellent though and the atmosphere was great. Would definitely go again.

We went to the Fox And Coney for lunch yesterday. On arrival we found that the booking had been mixed up and instead of seating us in the library where we could take our dogs, we were seated in the main restaurant. Given it had been made clear on booking that we had dogs, this was not a good start. A very nice group who were seated in the library, with no dogs, kindly agreed to change places. Otherwise we would have left. The staff were helpful, pleasant and efficient but the food was not good. After waiting over 40 minutes for our main courses we were mostly disappointed with the quality of food. Three of us had roast beef which was very tough and we could hardly cut it, although the rest of the plate was tasty. One had a tasteless bacon chop with an overdone fried egg, and burnt black pudding and potato hash, the steak pie was poor quality and dry. We will not be going back.

I’ve had far better at home! Why would you need a steak knife to eat Sunday lunch. The scampi was chewy, beyond belief it could be so bad!!!! Fir such a simple meal!

Great place for food and drinks friendly staff and great outdoor area plus dogs are welcome indoors

Had an issue with my food but it was rectified immediately by the friendly staff members, steak was gorgeous, both men serving that night were absolutely lovely and the lady was extremely polite too 10/10!

We stopped overnight and had a meal in the restaurant. Welcome was friendly and the room was clean if not a little tired. If you’re a light sleeper, you could hear the voices from the bar and there was a lot of traffic right outside (the windows are single glazed). The bar was busy and very cosy. The food in the restaurant was extremely good and we’d return on the strength of the restaurant alone. Recommended.

I met a friend there. We sat in the bar and were clearly the first people in for lunch but the seat had crumbs on it and the table felt sticky. We just ordered light bites the food was nice but a portion of chips was £5 and rather small. I won't rush back.

We booked here for a lunch with family who rarely get to see each other as they live some distance away. We were seated in the "library" as we had a dog with us and told this meant we had to order food and drinks at the bar. We had to sit on two tables (there were five of us) as the chairs do not fit under the tables. Three of us ordered the sweet potato and lentil cottage pie, one, the cheese burger and the other, the salmon. After a wait of 40 minutes our food arrived (no apology for the delay). The cottage pies were akin to baby food with pureed sweet potato on top of a tomato and lentil mush with the occasional bean, slice of courgette and carrot. All three of us thought it was disappointing. The verdict on the burger was that it was underwhelming abs so what on the small side. The salmon appeared to be fine as it was all eaten up. We were never asked if the meal was okay and had to go in search of dessert menus. We decided not to bother. We have eaten here before and had a lovely meal. So, maybe it was an off day. But hugely, dissappointing.

Lovely food, efficient service and a relaxed environment. We enjoyed a lazy lunch on a Saturday, it was busy but the seating is nicely spaced out, so you have plenty of room and the kitchen coped well and we weren't kept waiting long.

Our go to for every occasion. Food is always delicious, service is always amazing. The pub and restaurant are both beautiful and the outside area is really good too under cover with heated lamps above every table and an open fire. We come here for special occasions or just for casual lunch to share some wings. Always so good.

New Years meet up for a Lunch. Very busy, good job we'd booked (12-30), good varied menu, something for all.?. we started with a Classic ! , Prawn Cocktail (lovely fresh prawns and all the trimmings, served in a large glass, a good portion) and The Thai style Fish Cakes and sauce ( these were deep fried round balls, quite large, with sauce in the dish. I would have liked a bit more sauce, but a good tasty starter) Mains to follow. Braised Beef Cheek, mash and carrots ( served in a dish, a lot of creamy mashed potato with a large piece of dark beef on top and carrots. Melt in the mouth meat and a lovely dark gravy with it, a Winter Warmer) and Lentil and Chickpea Cottage Pie ( served in a round Skillet, a large portion of veg with a nice crust on top, very filling) 2 glasses of nice wine. No room for Desert.!. Paid the optional 10% service charge as the staff were very good, considering how busy it was.

One of our favourite local pubs. Great food and always a good selection of real ales.

Fox and coney has always served us well. Not a chain pub so great home made food and great beer.

We staying North Cave for a week. Booked restaurant in September as it was for New Year’s Eve. Food was below average, price for a glass of wine £7.50. £28 for salmon which was not up to scratch, chicken burger & chips. Burger overcooked & chips sent back because they were cold. I’m sorry but won’t be going back, overpriced for poor quality food & drink. The positive was the waiting staff were very polite.

Excellent food and value for money 👌 Great busy, cosy pub, the food is absolutely fantastic. We have dined at the pub many times and always had a great experience...highly recommend.

Started off well…..went down hill - first visit & unfortunately we won’t be coming again which is a shame as the atmosphere is cosy & they are dog friendly (bar only) 🫤 Starters were ok,I was disappointed in my main…… I ordered the Turkey dinner,gravy poured all over it was obviously instant with lumps in,potatoes so over done & rock hard I feared for my teeth! With a square of stuffing that had seen better days 😔 A few sprouts and cabbage thrown on the plate. I like a crispy roast spud as much as anyone else but when there’s no actual potato inside as they are so overcooked even I am going to be unhappy,these were truly awful. The food bill was £60 which in a cost of living crisis is not cheap! & in my opinion the food was not worth that price . I went to order a desert after we had finished eating & was told there was a wait of 30 minutes for 1 crumble & custard 🤷🏽‍♀️ that kinda made the decision for me re whether we would be returning, having said that the staff were friendly & made a fuss of our 19 week old puppy 🐶

Very disappointed in the meals certainly not worth the money £17 for a burger & fries with a spoonfull of coleslaw !!won't be returning.

Poor manager hiding behind his young staff. Unmarked table, sat for drinks, asked for menu, told by manager table was wanted in ten minutes but would see if another available. Didn't see him again. Fifteen minutes later he sent a young lad to ask us to move, at least he had the decency to tell us there were no tables available. Food might be good but management service needs to be looked at.

I popped in for lunch and enjoyed the Fox and Coney blonde ale and a very good chicken kiev. This was well cooked, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. A very generous portion with nice sweet potato fries. The pub is warm with a nice open fire and a decent effort at Christmas decoration. It was busy, but I found a quiet space. The service was a highlight. Esme is bright and cheerful. When she brought my food she wasn't satisfied with my table and came back to clean it. To care like this when she was evidently so busy is outstanding. She is perfectly suited to a job in hospitality, and an asset to the business. My bill did not include a service charge, as another reviewer has complained about, but I would have happily paid it. A good experience, made excellent by a standout member of staff.

My wife and I had a sleepover and supper at the Fox & Coney last week. It was a terrific experience. The staff were kind and helpful and - importantly - they were dog lovers! We were assigned to a lovely bedroom with a copper bathtub in the room. Supper in the bar, with our dogs, was delicious: hearty fare in generous portions. A highly recommended hospitality venue …

Excellent food excellent service excellent staff would definitely revisit if I was in the area again

Firstly let me say the food was amazing, maple bacon cheese burger, fish pie and blade of beef, all beautiful, pricey but was worth paying for the quality. Service staff were young but very polite and friendly, not a bad word to say about them. The lady that took our booking and greeted us when we arrived was very rude and short with us except when asking if out food was alright. As a family we all felt very unwelcome and put out, were considering leaving without ordering but we had driven to get here and found the pub very charming and inviting. When leaving we thanked the same lady and she basically ignored us. Maybe we're not the usual clientèle they get in here as we're a working class family but customer service is something I pride myself on and isn't hard, to smile and make someone feel welcome is a basic necessity when in a customer facing role. Would come again for the food but would leave if treat the same way again. Some pictures of the food and one of our cat to make up for the bad feels

Very busy spot difficult to get parked for a 7:30pm meal Food was very nice though not always advertised correctly But it was nice and hot and expensive

The food was very good. A steak, steak and ale pie, fish pie and chicken Kiev. Hot, tasty, beautifully cooked. The prices were at the top end of what you expect to pay for pub food - but worth it. Unfortunately the service was not...

The food we had on our visit to the Fox was excellent. However, it was not cheap and for that price we would have expected far better service. The staff were young, inexperienced and poorly trained. There were other staff present, either on laptops or...

This normally excellent restaurant really let me down today for Sunday lunch. The roast potatoes were awful. Been sitting in a heater for several hours. So chewy they were inedible. At £17 I would have expected better. Put me off returning.

I have been to fox and coney several times for food. We decided to go for date night as it had been a while. We shared two starters. The pate here is one of the best I have ever had so we had that and...

The server/waitress was amazing and an asset to the buisness. We accidentally found the venue when looking for breakfast on the way home from holiday. Food was lovely and the service was even better. 10am 14th August 2023

Managers customer service was terrible, ended up getting served by a bartender and was excellent. Manager needs retraining.

My husband and I met a friend for supper last Tuesday. The restaurant was very noisy, making it conversation difficult, and our table rather cramped in a corner, so not the most comfortable start. On the plus side the seabass was divine, compliments to the...

Took my mum for Sunday dinner here, can honestly say one of the best roast beef dinners I've had in a very long time.. Will be back but will book earlier time slot next time so we can all try the beef.. although the chicken...

Every time I visit here, which has been 3 times the service is truly awful it’s a actual shame as the food is ok. They overcooked the steaks/ beef wellington. We went in at 7.30 we actually got mains at 8.45 after we asked, the...

Went for drinks only on a Sunday afternoon , we are locals and visit fairly often . Despite 4 perfectly capable looking staff members behind the bar /serving area , it took a ridiculous amount of time to be served . The staff seemed to...

Amazing food and service. First time we've been and we will definitely be returning. Couldn't fault anything

They charged us for more expensive wine than we ordered and when we queried it denied it.even though we still had one of the empty bottles on the table clearly showing what we had drunk. They also automatically added a 10 percent service charge. The...

Delicious food that was well presented, fab atmosphere, helpful staff and delightful service. Will definitely be back again.

We spent a night at South Cave Travelodge, and called in at the Fox and Coney for a couple of drinks. The whole experience was very satisfying. The staff were brilliant, and the beer selection was mouth watering. 6 Cask beers were on offer, from...

Food was nice but the service was really poor. Never asked if we wanted desserts or coffee, took over an hour to get a drink and then we were doubled charged. A special occasion was spoilt by the poor service.

The fox and coney is a beautiful place. From the carpark with twinkling lights to the inside of the pub. We we served with drinks straight away and the young staff were lovely. We only had drinks no food but we were served quickly. A...

We’d visited here in the summer, thoroughly enjoyed it, loved the pie and chips and the service was great. So we decided to come for another date night. The pub was clearly busy when we walked in so was glad I booked, but no one...

This pub is just about a blue print for a good pub, warm, busy, plenty of staff and a boss that was interested. Great food and the fish and chips - the fish was a size of a small whale and tasted great.

Service was very poor, slow and not friendly. Starters arrived before the drinks, once drinks came they were bad tasting whiskey sours in particular. Dessert was off and sour. Mains were nice but overall disappointing and will not be returning.

Lovely pub and nice food however the lady managing the floor is seriously lacking in customer service and simply want to shut the place early all the time, rushing you to finish, taking unfinished drinks! This has happened on a few occasions now and to...

We have used this pub before and was first class but to Sunday 22nd was different the place was full of babies and children like eating in a crèche. Plus the beef was so fatty we had to send it back. But tto the pubs...

Food was outstanding and neevr seen such a more beautifully decorated pub for Christmas. We loved our visit.
