Booked on line , arrived on time , shown to our table , drinks ordered at the bar , friendly staff , ordered food at the bar again friendly staff , meals delivered all at the same time (apart from our little boys ) wife asked at the bar and was told being plated up now , so apart from a little hiccup not bad, would have been a 5 star

My daughter in law and myself hasflat bread, it was disgusting no dressing or salad, sent them back only to have a tiny portion of tomato sprinkled on them, my husband's scampi was no bigger than a starter, we spent just under £100 last night and it wasn't worth it, we've spent hundreds of pounds over the years, recommend to everyone how good it is, I shall not be doing it again.

Came here for tea tonight, staff are pleasant enough and coped with the amount of customers, which is a huge improvement to my last visit. Sadly the food was naff, my boneless chicken was dry as anything. Partner ordered a mix grill, came with no onion rings, steak was ordered rare and was probably closer to well done, meaning he didn’t actually eat it. No check back done and when we did find a waitress and tell her all she did was apologise and didn’t do anything to rectify it. I work in hospitality so I know that this is bad service! Photo attached of my partners “rare” steak 👎

Nearly everything we tried to order they didn't have. We had a 3 Yr old with us who we ordered of the kids menu for her. They brought our starter but not hers by the time they made her starter, the tricky business of a couple of carrot and cucumber sticks 🙄we had finished our starters.

Food looked nothing like picture on menu... Steer clear of the flatbreads. When I asked the server if that was I'm fact what I ordered they simply said yes. Not bothered at all!! No-one asked if we needed anything else and never came back to check everything was OK. They never even cleared the table

I have not been to the Fox & Crown for a fair few years now but decided to nip in today for lunch. The food was great, and the service was fab. I had the XL mixes grill, and it came out sizzlung on a hotplate, and all the meat was cooked to perfection. Sides were chips, onion rings, and peas. My wife had the chicken combo meal and opted for the grilled chicken skewer, southern fried skewer with tata tots, colslaw, and chilli dip. This was all washed down with a couple of Peroni's. Decor is a little tired and could probably do with a bit of a refresh but still clean. Will be back soon .

The fox and crown is a great pub and the atmosphere is always good however , I went with my son and we both had steak and to be honest it was dreadful. The steaks didn't taste of anything, I think it was a cheap meat and the brownies I had for afters we're freezing like they just come out of the fridge. If you're going for a drink then this is a pub to go to put the food is not up to scratch.

4 adults we have spent well over £200 tonight! Starting with positive point, very fast serving! Very disappointed we were unable to order any deserts at 21.30. we have been told by the staff that the kitchen closes at 21.00 on a Saturday night?!? Very, very odd.... I am shocked... we were not even able to finish our meals and drinks by 21.00... when i expressed my disappointment, the staff just shrugged their shoulders like they didn't care, like is not their problem... Staff looked tired and had no engagement with the guests Food quality overall is on a decline Definitely going to spend money at a different place next Saturday

Fairly empty when we were there but didn't mind that. Staff very friendly. Because we had a dog with us we had to sit in the bar area. Fair enough we thought, but this turned out to be a couple of picnic- style tables near the pool table. The covers on the benches at the tables were quite tatty and could do with re- covering. However, we really enjoyed the food and would go back again for that reason alone.

This has been the place that myself and my family have been to for lunch and dinner numerous of times over a few years now. However, we have found it very disappointing today when we went out for food. The food quality has got worse and the prices have risen, to say the least the food that we had ordered wasn’t worth the money. Ordered side of onion rings which was bland and compared to previous times ordered they tasted frozen and not delicious at all. The portions size have also been reduced which don’t match the price or description did not fill us up unfortunately. We also ordered a new item which was the rib rack and that was an utter disappointment definitely not worth £17, the ribs were just bones with little meat on it and the presentation wasn’t great either, chips were undercooked overall we was left disappointed with our dining experience. The staff were however lovely and provided great service. But unfortunately being a diner here for past few years the menu has gone downhill and so has the food and its quality. Hoping for improvement in the future but for meantime left unsatisfied and not eager to return in the future.

Firstly I'd like to say the bar staff were lovely . On to the food , the wings in a mess tin ..just scrappy looking tbh..and also a side plate would have been nice , not something that should need requesting . The mixed grill my partner ordered medium rare ..was well done , not a bit of pink to be seen . The onion rings were below par too . My millionaire burger was tasty but the way the food is presented leaves a lot to be desired. There was all I can describe as the runt remains of the edge of a raw red onion on the side of my plate . Not actually sure why it was there. As for the messy tables , that statement speaks for itself . Not cleared off from previous diners even after our starters were delivered . Not the worst food by any means but a rating includes the surroundings and service too which were below average.

Went in for lunch today. First impression- cutlery wasn’t clean. Had to clean them before we used them. I ordered the fancy looking pie on the menu. My partner ordered eight chicken wings and chose the sweet chilli sauce to go with them. I’ll start with the Steak and Ale Pie. Whilst it was a large pie and the portion size was very good, I actually struggled to find any meat that wasn’t also accompanied by gristle. Chicken wings were delivered in what I can only describe as an Aluminium Tin, that somehow had managed to avoid being melted down during WW2 to make Spitfires. The wings were soggy and soaked in the Sweet Chilli Sauce, which made the nigh on impossible to eat. The sauce should have been served on the side. Quiet honestly it looked a mess. The lady waiting was lovely and very polite, however, there seemed to be plenty of other staff members just dossing around which could have been cleaning cutlery. Not memorable at all.

Been out to the fox and Crown twice with work a group of 8 the first time and 7 of us the second, both occasions the food has been fantastic. We take some time to sort out bills as each pay individually and it was no trouble to the staff at all, they are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The meals are really good value and great pub grub!! Everything is totally accessible with car park access straight into the pub on the same level and a descrete disabled access toilet . Overall a lovely trip out and will be taking the family out in the near future.

Visited last night and the service was incredibly slow. The food is not even worth a rating in my opinion. I had the signature burger and the burger was greesy tasting and asthough it was cooked hours ago but kept warm, wayyy too much mayo on the bun to the point it was soggy. The chips were hard and over cooked and cold. Out of the 4 of us eating there was only one of us that even enjoyed the food. I will not be eating here again and it is a shame as we have been coming here for years and live local. The only credit to this is pub is the bar staff on last night were friendly enough.
