Fox And Hounds in Malvern Hills

This country pub is the best in Worcestershire by far. My husband and I are frequent visitors sometimes just for a drink with their excellent selection of real ales and wide selection of gins but we often go for evening dinner and drinks, the menu is very varied and changes with the seasons. The main reason we use the Fox & Hounds is because you are guaranteed excellent locally sourced meats, the service from all staff is excellent and they are very knowledgeable about what’s in the menu and what guest ales are on offer. I feel very happy taking my friends with me because I know they will not leave disappointed, the majority of the time after dinner we will end our night with a drink in their Lulsley Room, we’ve always been made welcome by the locals and the fact the pub is dog friendly is a bonus for us.

Great Sunday lunch . Pub was very very busy but the staff were super friendly and looked after us well. Great brownie for pudding . Top marks. Only downside was the very rude customer berating the lovely staff ! Hopefully she will not return so the rest of us can enjoy the lovely food .

Superb food at a warm and welcoming country pub. Value for money is astonishingly good, as is the service. Well behaved dogs are welcomed. An absolute gem of a place.

The worst Christmas Dinner ever! A total rip off, at £100 ph it was tasteless, no table decorations just a very " cheap" cracker! Not even offered coffee never again!!

From the warm welcome to the great service to the delicious food, The Fox and Hounds definitely hits the mark. I had roast beef and my wife had roast pork - both from the local Knightwick Butchers, just down the road. Everything was cooked to perfection and accompanied by great local ales and ciders. What a contrast to our last Sunday roast at Rick Stein's Cornish Arms. This was 10 times better! The team at the Fox and Hounds could certainly teach Rick a thing or two about quality food and service!

We cannot fault our experience at the Fox and Hounds, we booked a table to celebrate a birthday and the food was fantastic! Two of the party are gluten and dairy free and there were extensive options for us to choose from. Nothing was too much trouble, the kids menu is great too. The service was faultless and we felt very welcome with three children under the age of 5. Lovely locals too!

Visited today for lunch with family, one of which was gluten and lactose intolerant. The menu catered perfectly for her needs and she was so pleased that the beer battered fish was made with a gluten free batter. We were all delighted with our choices, that were delicious. The service was also excellent and we’re all keen to return and work through the menu.

Good service, delicious food and dog friendly. The most delicious cheesecake you'll get for miles around. A great all-rounder.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Delicious brocolli cheese and hot gravy! Lovely friendly service. Great kids options.

Amazing pub in a rural location, decided to reward ourselves with a quick pint after a countryside walk in the heat. Good selection of draft beers/ales complemented by superb service from lily

Whilst visiting the area, we chose to eat here due to the good reviews. Excellent food and range of drinks. I had the ‘proper pie of the day’ and sure it was proper!! Can’t remember the last time I had such a good pie filled to the top with pasty all around. Chips were amazing too! Shame we aren’t local to visit more regularly!

Wonderful food as always. Shout out to our server Emma who was wonderful and handled everything with professionalism and warmness.

We went for Sunday lunch and had a real feast. A well cooked roast with plenty of vegetables filled us up so we had no room for puddings. Staff are very friendly and efficient. We will be back soon.

Friday lunch visit with friends. The food was delicious, good range of drinks available. Highly recommended.

Thank you to all involved with Proper Pie Night last week. Fabulous and memorable food, we are still talking about how good it was… says it all as far as we are concerned.

Lovely discovery a country pub with great food and service. We had prompt service having not booked a lunchtime slot. Can thoroughly recommend the crispy shredded beef starter.

We've been twice recently, and are just about to return. Each time the food has been exceptional and very good value (a week night and a Sunday lunch). Lots of gluten-free choice clearly marked on the menu, and our dog accommodated wonderfully too. Nice, friendly...

Lovely spot! We visited on a Sunday for a late lunch. Booked a table and while the table was being set, had a cocktail at the bar. The woman behind the bar was friendly and helpful! We ordered appetizers, mains and desserts. I was disappointed...

This is the second time we’ve been to the Fox & Hounds - the first time was when we were still wearing masks and we all know how weird dining out was then - but this time round, I just loved the food! The home...

After a disastrous experience at a nearby establishment, The Fox and Hounds came to our rescue with a last minute table for Sunday lunch. It was, as ever, perfect and we should just have booked here in the first place! Thank you

First time visitor....for Sunday lunch..sublime beef..excellent fresh veggies..super helpful staff without being overbearing...All in all superb

Absolutely delicious pub food. Have not been in over a year and will not leave it too long to visit again. Homemade chicken bacon red wine pie was delicious. Pork cracking pork belly, very tasty. Shin of beef again so delicious. And the simple fish...

We have visited the pub several times over the last year and their Sunday lunches never disappoint! Fabulous, fresh food, huge portions and incredibly friendly and quick service from wonderful, professional staff. If we have room for a dessert, the choices are all yummy too...

Thought we would try this pub because of the high star ratings. Mum has a tiny appetite so we only wanted a snack or sandwich. I know it was a Sunday so Roasts rule & no sandwiches. Very difficult to choose something from the scant...

Lovely beer garden in the sunshine and delicious food !! Fish of the day was oven baked Salmon on crushed new potatoes, with green beans and peas- cooked to perfection! My husband asked for onion rings with his Halloumi Burger (even though onion rings were...

As a walking party of 10 we were excellently looked after. Tables were ready for us, food was extremely good and service was prompt and friendly. Knowing how the catering industry is struggling for resource we really appreciated this. Well done Fox and Hounds, we'll...

Great Lunch had last Sunday had , beautifully cooked and the service excellent too . Milo the dog , happy too that he could attend as they have dog friendly tables .

Best Sunday roast I've had in years - succulent meat, generous portions, superb variety of veg, excellent ale while being cheaper than many meals I had on this trip.

Along a country Lane with a spacious car park behind the building. We both had a ribeye steak which was perfectly cooked and so flavourful. The onion rings were golden and crunchy, fresh not frozen peas and a huge bowl of crisp, fluffy inside chips…just...

What a lovely country pub, during our weekend stay in worcester, we visited the Fox & Hounds for an evening meal. Excellent food and service, staff were really friendly & helpful. Highly recommended

A truly fantastic lunch that could not have been better in any way. Super friendly first class service and amazing food. Portions were more than generous. We sat by a big roaring log fire that was kept topped up throughout our visit.

Lovely pub, friendly service, roaring fires in pleasant surroundings. Food : Brought to the table without a cloth... This is the first stumbling block for us, meaning the plates weren't THAT hot. Over cooked Yorkshires, hard Roasters. Other than that, a pleasant meal. Could of...

Myself and 4 friends visited recently for Sunday lunch. We were on holiday for a long weekend in the area and decided to book a table here for Sunday lunch based on the excellent trip advisor reviews. We were not disappointed with the value for...

We had such a great evening meal at the Fox & Hounds last night. I had the steak and mushroom pie with chips and veg and it was truly yummy! The service was fantastic. Lovely staff who knew their stuff, were attentive, friendly and quick....

Great attentive service, realistically priced but it was a shame about the two ploughman’s - each comprising of a sausage roll, two slices of cold beef, a ciabatta roll with some slices of pickled onions, for £15(?) chips were extra, this was very poor value...

We had a lovely evening. Service was quick and attentive. Nice pub type menu with lots of choice. Food very tasty, served hot and 20 minutes after order. Found the dining area lacking in atmosphere with wooden floor, no music ! Eton Mess was stunning,...

After visiting a couple of times before we decided to book for a very special occasion, my dads 80th birthday. Despite all of the Covid procedures which were followed precisely but not intrusively we had a wonderful evening in the conservatory. The staff were very...

Today we made our first visit to the Fox and Hounds at Lulsley, I can only say we had a fabulous experience. The food was superb and compliments go to the chef it was cooked to perfection, the rib eye steak and the steak and...

We've been twice recently since our permanent move to this area, and can honestly say that it's the best pub/restaurant we've ever been in. The staff are, without question, the best we've ever encountered - and we're in our seventies! Thanks Tom, Matt and Daisy...

We were walk-ins and lucky to get a table. They are taking Covid precautions very seriously which is comforting. Very friendly staff. Also clean and airy. We had the scotch egg and haddock goujons to start. Both incredible. The batter on the goujons was so...

Me and my partner stopped by for a pub lunch on Wednesday 5th of may for my birthday and the food and beer was just outstanding and most importantly the staff! It was so nice we went back again on the Thursday for a late...

Excellent Sunday lunch, everything was first class , roast potatoes really good. Really nice to sit in the garden and enjoy a good meal with family.

We have just enjoyed a fabulous meal at home during lockdown courtesy of The Fox and Hounds. I wasn't sure if the food would be as good as having it at the pub but it really was! I pre ordered and paid yesterday and as...

Visited this pub for a family meal just before lockdown no 2! The food was excellent and really good value. Service was great and the care they took over social distancing etc was second to none! Would really recommend this pub - only criticism is...

Congratulations to Tom Clarke and his team, kitchen staff, front of house, bar staff and cleaning staff. Last night was “proper pie night” it was also the final evening before the second lockdown. What an evening my husband and I had, yes the Fox is...

Proper pie night was very good. The food was absolutely lovely. We were seated quickly and were glad we had pre booked as it was busy! The staff were very attentive but not pushy. The restraunt was beautifully decorated and cosy. It was warm and...

just found this pub whilst traveling home to saddleworth. what a great find, superb lunch, friendly and covin secure. would recommend very highly.

In these difficult times, the Fox and Hounds stands out for the way they are making eating out an experience to enjoy. Well spaced tables, immaculate hygiene, and sensitive and thoughtful staff. Food as always is top drawer and nothing is too much trouble for...

Visited for lunch on a very wet October Friday while staying at Hoppickers retreat. The food was all lovely - we shared a couple of starters (scotch egg and courgette fritters) and then both had the ‘proper pie’ of the day for mains. Very generous...

Sunday lunch for four was an absolute delight. The carrot and cumin soup starter was one of the biggest portions we had ever seen. The prawn cocktails were full of prawns, not just sauce as is often the case and the scotch egg was delicious....

Hard to find anything to choose on the menu that does not come with wholegrain mustard? Steak was beautifully cooked with a lot of flavour just a little bit fatty sadly. Partner enjoyed his pie and sides. Our starters were amazing we went with the...

Such an brilliant pub! We’ve used their ‘takeaway’ option a few times over the past few months and the food is always sublime! Take a bow Tom and team, incredible effort!

Another fantastic meal at this great pub. As always Tom and his team go above and beyond to deliver fabulous service and excellent food and drinks. My reason for review is to thank Tom for the thought he's put in to complying with every Covid...

We love this pub. Tom and the team have made it such a lovely place to visit and the food is always excellent. We have taken several friends and family there and it always delivers! During the lockdown they have provided a great takeaway service...

Came here for the first time since lockdown begin. Staff are friendly and professional, observing all of the guidelines and going above and beyond. Felt incredibly safe and looked after. Food was (as usual) first rate, as was the beer. 10/10 recommend!

Recommended by the team at the wonderful Huntlands Farm B&B, this gem of a pub exceeded expectations by a very, very long way. My first beer, one sip from the top, had me thinking it was end of barrel. Before I had chance to make...

Visited recently for lunch, lovely fresh food with very friendly service. We had the fish and chips, which were excellent and there were lots of other options on the menu to choose from. Good choice of local beers on offer to enjoy as well. Been...

We booked for dinner on Bank Holiday Monday, food and service was excellent as ever! Thank you Tom and the team! Look forward to seeing you again soon!

Visited recently during a stay in a nearby village. The set up because of Covid was great, very well organised and managed. Food was fantastic. I had the steak and it was one of the best I’ve had, cooked perfectly and very tasty. Great food...

A few weeks since our last visit for Sunday lunch at this fantastic country pub. The manager, owners and staff team have ensured that all the Government guidelines are met, I.e. face masks, one way system, sanitise systems throughout the pub and socially distanced tables...

Went out for supper on Saturday night and had really excellent food and beer in a very safe environment. Nice to see someone taking the Covid 19 procedures seriously! Hand sanitiser everywhere, social distancing rigorously enforced and all the staff wearing masks.

We visited the fox and hound Lulsley on our recent stay in the area as it was highly recommend by my Airbnb host as I’m Gluten free coeliac We were not disappointed in anyway Tom the main man and all his staff made us feel...

We sat outside in the beer garden, so can't comment on inside but they had very well thought through COVID-19 arrangements. The staff were super friendly and attentive, whilst keeping distance. The food was superb - the arancini starter was sublime. And it was all...

Ate here twice whilst staying at Hop Pickers Rural retreat. Both times, could not fault, the meal, service or friendliness of staff. Keep up the good work. Stay safe. The Saints.

Since its revamp I couldn’t ask for a better local. Staff are extremely friendly and attentive, the menu is better than ever after lockdown and the fact its a walk away can only be a good thing for local house prices. Retains a small pub...

We came here for an evening meal as we were staying in the area and the reviews on here were so good. it is also dog-friendly which is good. The bar tables are next to a fire which is very cosy and so we ate...

We called into the Fox at lunchtime for a quick bite to eat. We were shown to a lovely table overlooking the beautiful grounds behind the pub. There was a lovely lunchtime menu with everything from prawn cocktail to different sandwiches. I had the fish...

Driving around searching for a pub. When on the right I saw it a delightful looking pub,it was called The Fox and Hounds . We went in I asked if it was possible to get lunch, I was told yes but I would have to...

Had an amazing lunch. Geat staff who were very friendly and helpful. Very relaxed and geat feel to the whole pub. Will certainly return

4 of us went for Sunday lunch. Traditional roast is available, and looked delicious. I had a veggie option, which was really good. (Celeriac au gratin) Good choice of beers, ciders, etc. Really liked the look of the starters, but knew I wouldn't have room.....I...

We popped in for a beer on our way home but as it was lunchtime and we were starving we decided to eat. We both had a festive burger with Knightwick beef and deep fried Camembert and oh wow 😮 it was amazing. Chips were...

Our first visit to the Fox & Hounds at Lulsey and what a fab place, set in the heart of rural Worcestershire. The place is very impressive, great people and personal service, a lovely bar and a spacious eating area which sets this place apart....

Went here for my friends 40th celebrations the food was amazing. The pub from the outside looks nothing to what you get when you are inside it was such a warm welcome and the staff were brilliant

First visit last night, won’t be the last. Food was excellent, menu extensive. Service attentive without being pushy. Looking forward to trying more of the menu

We arrived to a very warm welcome. The food was delicious, the service excellent which all bode for a very enjoyable evening

I took my Mum out for a light lunch yesterday and it had been many years since we had visited the Fox and Hounds. What a find! Staff were friendly and there was plenty of atmosphere in the pub, talking and laughing which is always...

Went there on a recommendation it was so brilliant the food was amazing great value for money. Very attentive staff lovely atmosphere would visit again and would travel from Northampton just for lunch!!!

Had a cracking meal here with family on a Friday night. Owners & staff all ery friendly & accommodating. Beer is excellent & varied. They are happy to accommodate dogs in the bar & conservatory. All in all a top place to visit

Was staying close by and luckily stumbled on this place. Was going to just have a drink. But when we saw someones share platter we couldnt resist. We were made to feel welcome. And the platter was even better then it looked it was fresh...

This was our second visit. We love to eat out most Sundays and like to find lil gems of eating establishments. This visit did not disappoint. The beef was cooked perfectly, lovely crunchy roast potatoes, Yorkshire Pud and a mix of fresh vegetables. Friendly service...

Went back for a second meal whilst on a week’s holiday in the area. Food and service were excellent both times as was the beer. Highly recommended.

We all love it here From the first initial telephone booking , they couldn’t of been more helpful. You are always guaranteed a warm welcome. The food was absolutely wonderful, we were a party of 13 and everyone said how amazing the food was . We all couldn’t fault it . Very good array of drinks as well . Next time family come to visit we will be booking again

A very clean friendly country pub where you are always made welcome.The food is excellent and locally sourced, you would expect for that reason you are going to pay more, this is not the case all meals are very reasonably priced the Sunday lunch is fantastic and a meal we keep returning for.The management and staff team cannot help you enough to make sure you are having a good time, it is very apparent that Tom and his team endeavour to get to know their customers and are always happy to make time to have a conversation with them. The selection of ale's is very good and is changed very regularly (you are offered a taster if you are not sure you will like it). The Fox & Hounds as a massive selection of gin's and Friday evening is "gin night"There is a lovely beer garden that is enclosed and surrounded by lovely plants, flowers and climbers, there is also a large play area for the children with climbing frames etc.In conclusion I would rate every aspect of this business as 5 star.

We were staying nearby and popped in for supper on the recommendation of our host.We ate in the restaurant area, it was quiet as it was a Monday night but a good buzz in the bar area where food is also served.Very friendly welcoming staff, good menu selection with great emphasis on local produce. Well priced, good quality food. We returned on the Thursday evening, lots of tables booked ( celebrations for exams results) . Again friendly staff and we were looked after mainly by a really friendly young adult female. Despite being busy, service and quality of meal was superb. Seasonal menu was on offer we both had handmade pies, one beef, one seasonal vegetable. The pastry was mouth wateringly delicious. Highly recommend, great atmosphere, great food, great staff.

The Fox and Hounds is one of the best pubs for miles. As always a warm welcome, and help on deciding on our drinks. We ordered sandwiches and sides of chips. Beautiful bread, and well filled sandwiches. Brought out to us in the garden by two lovely young ladies, one of whom had only started today and was doing really well. Picked up advance copy of Christmas menu which looks fabulous. Had the Christmas meal last year and it was great. Highly recommended, thanks to all. Multi award winning!!!

Came with family, specifically to try the sunday lunch as the reviews on trip advisor were good. We were not disappointed. We all enjoyed a starter, home made scotch egg, halloumi chips with sweet chilli sauce and whitebait were enjoyed by our family group. This was followed by a huge roast of local pork with crackling, vegetables, yorkshire pudding, roasties and mashed potato and stuffing. Two of our party had a burger which was pronounced delicious and a vegetarian lasagne. If there was any minor complaint it was that the young lady who served us did not know what vegetables were on the plate when asked and the burger was asked for without cheese and this had to be returned to the kitchen. However, a new burger was immediately served and this was fresh, definitely not something which had been 'retouched' in the kitchen. These very minor issues would not prevent us from returning to the Fox and Hounds again.

Whilst in Worcestershire we had Sunday lunch here. Portions sizes were excellent Service very good only minor criticism is that with the 3 staff on duty everything could be brought to the table in one go including sauces, gravy etc Well worth a visit

Contacted the pub at very short notice to book a table for 3 for Sunday lunch, Tom was very accommodating by allowing my 95 yr old mother in law to have a child’s portion ( which in her words was huge). Natalie, our waitress looked after us all so professionally the service was 1st class, she kept coming back (but not intruding) to make sure the food was ok and that we were enjoying ourselves, actually we can’t wait to come back again, we have friends that will be visiting us over the next few weeks, I can guarantee that it will be the Fox & Hounds that we will be bringing them to for excellent food and service. Finally can I please ask that our compliments to the chef are given as the staff in the background really don’t get the recognition they deserve.

I rang to book a last minute table for the next day and despite sounding busy they were happy to fit me in with a slight time alteration. When we arrived we had a warm welcome and the pub was a beautifully presented traditional pub. The atmosphere felt friendly and bubbly. It was obvious it was a buzzing pub with plenty going on but at the same time catering for couples and families with young and old. Food.. It was lovely to have some none Sunday Roast options on the menu (we visited on a Sunday) and the food we had was fresh, good quality and tasted great! The portions were also just right.All members of staff we met were friendly and the service was timely, we weren’t rushed nor left waiting.We thoroughly enjoyed our visit!

Staff were friendly, and accommodating. Food was poor, and service not attentive. Not sure what people expect to receive here as a result of the positive trip advisor reviews, but we were expecting more for the £95 bill for three.

Tom spent months helping to arrange a surprise party for my dad. On the day, he and the team were helpful, friendly and efficient. The food was great and we couldn’t have asked for a better place for a family party. Huge thanks to Tom and team

The moment we arrived we were warmly greeted and offered an excellent table. My granddaughter was with us so she was shown an excellent children’s menu and we all had an excellent choice from the adult menu. The food was excellent with a really lovely ambience. There was also a very large outside children’s play area.Highly recommended.
