Fox & Hounds in Cardiff

Excellent atmosphere for a quiz evening

Nice local pub, nice pub grub, nice staff friendly nice atmosphere lovley beer garden

Love this place. Always feel welcome.

4 of us really enjoyed our roast dinner..

First time going here for a Sunday roast paid extra to have two large dinners never again not worth the money

Lovely tasty food cooked to a good standard. Good portions. The service was fast and very efficient. We were seated without a booking on a fairly busy day within a couple of minutes. The tables were cleared and cleaned as soon as people had finished ready for the next customers to be seated. The staff were lovely and friendly and could be seen chatting with their regulars. Overall, this is a lovely family pub with a warm friendly atmosphere and I would strongly recommend it to others.

Lovely food highly recommended and staff very helpful and polite service was excellent

Relaxed atmosphere, good food and drinks good service from lovely staff.

Bitter was excellent food tasty but but not very hot . Lack of heating means the pub is generally cold. Best pub in the village

Lovely food, great service, comfortable seating area.

Ran out of multiple dishes (despite saying they had it when ordered). So had to choose other alternatives that we didn’t want. Good took a long time to come - especially as it was fairly quiet. Ice cream sundae took 40mins and chasing (was then missing the brownies). Food was ok and staff very nice.

Been here twice now recently and the food is very good value for money.

Would highly recommend. Food was lovely and the service was excellent. Lovely atmosphere in the pub.

Food was luke warm, no fries that day , I was offered chips which I don't like (chunky chips.) They offered me sweet potatoe fries, and charged me extra...very disappointed with the meal just wasn't nice at all. Tasted like it was precooked and reheated, my sister had scampi the batter wasn't crisp it was soft and again warm not hot. Yuk

The staff were very friendly, food took a long time. They didn't offer alternatives for items that contained gluten, just didn't put them on the plate.

As usual a lovely meal. Pleasant and well mannered staff. Excellent prices and highly recommended.

Brilliant service! Food was lovely and hot, served quickly and was delicious! Holly served us with a smile as always and the rest of the team are the same. Great lunch, thank you!!

Lovely place with a great team! Went for Sunday lunch and it was delicious. Serve quickly and was piping hot and really tasty. Great value and Holly and the team are just fab!

Food was good apart from burnt sausages which I like lol. Food took age's even though two tables which ordered after us had their food and finished it even before ours came, and that was because I complained, and not just us other tables complaining to about time food was taking to come out! Pub bizzy but not that bizzy over all ok. 3*

Had a great Mother's Day menu 3 coarse Sunday Lunch.Great staff we did have to wait a bit it was very busy but we expected that.Lovely to see a local pub so busy.

Friendly and efficient staff. Tasty food. With the 30% off voucher, good value for money. Without it, then it would be okay still.

Lovely Sunday dinner , really nice , washed down with a glass of red , great atmosphere , friendly pub !

Helpful staff, good service, good food, good prices.

Shout out to Ben, Laura and Steve Went above and beyond! My first time in the establishment and they went out of their way for dog treats and exceptional customer service, will most definitely come here again!! The food was beyond tasty, thanks to all staff :-)

Laura and her team at the fox and hound really did go above and beyond for myself and my family for my Mother’s 50th birthday. We were a large party of 24 and from start to finish, all of the staff did everything they could to make our visit as personable and enjoyable as possible - from ensuring all of our food was cooked beautifully and everyone was happy to allowing us to decorate the area with balloons and banners how we pleased. The fox is our usual go to for a last minute meal out or few hours drinking in the beer garden but they really did show top tier service considering the large volume and demand. Would 100% recommend again and again.

Nice pub but for at least a few weeks the hand pulled beer is dreadful real shame on a Monday afternoon when it on special offer

Hubby and I loving the new menu. Popped in for some food this evening great food and service at a reasonable price. As always the service was spot on from all the staff. A big shout out to Tasha who as always went above and beyond.

Service was good and pub grub was decent. Unfortunately quite a few items on the menu were not available as they had sold out.,

Staff are great, atmosphere is fab. A lovely place for a family get together. The grandkids loved the singer and bouncy castle

Went for Sunday lunch I had chicken hubby had steak the meal was delicious we took our dog to so it's dog friendly as well lovely service from the staff definitely will be back.

Food excellent, good service. , Definitely visit again.

I came it at noon, had a lovely latte and a bowl of chips with a friend, and just enjoyed taking an hour to sit on the sofas and chat. The atmosphere and environment inside is very nice and calm at lunch time and I really appreciate that!

Very nice food, staff and enviroment

Rump steak tough as old boots. Took it home for the dogs.chef said trouble with suppliers. Staff nice. Especially the lady who brought the birthday cake to the table for my grand daughter, I am sorry to say that we won't be eating again at the fox and hounds as the whole experience was spoilt by the steak that my wife and myself couldn't eat ,it shouldn't have been on the menu ,the chef or staff should have probably recommended sirloin to us but they didn't also a refund wasn't offered

Food was very good . Didn’t have to wait to long on a very busy afternoon for service. All staff were polite and friendly and cleaned our table promptly after we had finished eating. Definitely will be back soon for another visit.

Lovely food, and service. Josh was polite and came out too see if we all enjoyed our food. Would defiantly come back

Went as a big group for a retirement party for a friend, we had a lovely meal thanks to Josh, the chef. He came out and personally greeted us with a warm smile. Lovely pub, great food and a wonderful atmosphere. Thank you so much! Can't wait to come back.

Lovely food.nice atmosphere everyone friendly,josh came out and checked we all enjoyed our meal,which we did,

Great food. Lovely staff, especially Steve.

Great service, food and atmosphere. Well recommended.

A lovely evening again in the Fox and Hounds St Mellons .Staff are always so welcoming and helpful .Lovely meal ,great drinks .Always an enjoyable experience.

Super Pub grub Very nice..Great service...Lovely local atmosphere, just had a fabulous meal in the beer garden excellent food excellent service from lovely staff..We'll Done 👏👏

3 of us had curry - Thai, tikka and beef. Delicious

Ben was a lovely lad! Always full of life! Fantastic customer service. Can’t fault him.

Fabulous food and bar staff were so accommodating deffo return again

Excellent meal very friendly staff. Would definitely return as it was our first visit.

Great food from chef Ben Palfrey and the team at the Fox and Hounds, would highly recommend!

Went in for lunch as we’ve eaten here multiple times before. On ordering was told several items on the menu weren’t available which wasn’t a problem. After over half an hour I went to see how long food would be and was told 2-3 minutes as it’s just being played, no problem. 20 minutes later after the food still hadn’t arrived we went up for a refund as the other barman came out with. I told him we were getting a refund as the food had taken almost an hour and he got quite shirty with me and made some comments. I will say the skinny guy with the curly black hair was brilliant and couldn’t apologise enough but the big guy in the blue shirt who had a lenny quality to him from of mice and men was rude and unpleasant and maybe not suitable to work in the service industry.

Had sunday dinner here today 21 07 and we didn't wait long for the meal, and it was fantastic, we had beef which was cut quite thickly ,with a giant yourkshire pudding ,mash potatoe,Stuffing ,roasties,green beans an Carrots with red cabbage ,my daughter has broccoli on hers I didn't mind not having that as I had my fav veg,with a lovely thick Gravy was delicious Thank you will come again,..

Fantastic Staff. Great service and to top it all Fantastic Food. My Wife had the Gammon and I had the Sirloin Steak. My steak was expertly cooked and melt in the mouth. My compliments to the Chef also. I would definitely recommend this hostilary.

Good beer quick service and friendly staff overall a lovely afternoon

Visited this evening as a booking of 10 people for a birthday meal. Very impressed with the service we received. Orders taken and promptly delivered to the table. A variety of foods ordered such as mixed grills (all cooked as requested), burgers and children’s meals. Meals were very reasonably priced, good portion sizes and variety available. All staff were friendly and accommodating, particularly impressed with Holly and Tom. Holly was very understanding when a member of booking is a particularly fussy eater. She was quick to offer an alternative and was very understanding. Tom was very friendly whilst ordering and checking we were satisfied with our meal. I would definitely recommend her and will return again soon! Well done Fox and Hounds!

I went with a group of 18 people. We had pre ordered our food. We waited for almost an hour and a half for the food to arrive. Whilst I have no complaints for the food or the price, I don't think the pub should have accepted the booking knowing that they haven't the facilities to produce that many plates of food in a reasonable time.

There were 4 in my group. As I was ordering at the bar we were informed of a 30-45 minutes wait for food. This was due to a delivery. We arrived at 12.30, almost 2pm our food was served. 2 had the lunch options & when I went to order the dessert we were charged full price as we should have ordered with the main. At no point was I asked for the desserts when I was ordering the lunch options main. No apple crumble available, we didn't have any dessert.

Tom did a great job 👏👏👏 serving 18 of us. Thanks Tom 🎉🎉🎉

Staff were absolutely brilliant, fantastic. Very friendly and welcoming. My steak was cooked perfectly, medium rare. Thanks to all the staff for a great experience. 👍

Nice place good value for money food prices.

When to the fox on fathers day June 2024 service was amazing as always staff so friendly, food was great, I would highly recommend,

Food a bit bland but overall a nice visit

Amazing service and food and cant beat the price with 30% off! Will be back

Great atmosphere and the staff are so friendly☺️ always would recommend this place!!

Used to come for decent food absolutely awful today got nachos missing guacamole , partner had tikka masala so small portion of curry and stale naan bread. I had hunters chicken no cheese and like one drop of BBQ sauce, solid onion rings. At the bar no one there for 10 minutes. Would have complained if there was any staff

Good service Friendly customer service

Absolutely Amazing food and staff are always helpful and friendly

We always feel welcome in this charming and atmospheric local. The staff could not be more personable and hospitable, we cannot praise them all enough.

We have just finished food in this lovely pub, we came in without booking table, gentlemen at bar was very helpful and friendly, he sat us down, we ordered food, and had some drinks, food was absolutely delicious. Definitely recommend this place if you looking for great food and atmosphere and very friendly staff

Had the gammon fries and eggs was really Nice to be fair for cheap pub food

What makes pur visits so good is the staff at Fox and Hounds, St Mellons. No matter how busy they are always polite and attentive.

Brilliant value for your money here, decent food at reasonable prices friendly and quick service highly recommend

Holly was great during our visit! Very helpful and food was 10/10

Went as a family, age range 5 to 77. Very friendly pub, good selection of food and children's menu. Unfortunately, as it was a Sunday and almost 6pm all Sunday Roast Meals sold out, this because it's popular! Also has a garden area. All enjoyed and some delicious puddings.

Had a wonderful meal for my nans 75th birthday, 20 odd of us and all meals came out together. Wonderful service, lovely food a massive thank you to all the staff!

A friendly pub with a lovely attitude to children and families. I have been visiting since my Grandson was 5yrs and he is now 15yrs. I have celebrated my Grandsons birthdays there for 10 years. The staff care, food is good and great offers. See you all soon. Dianne Hayes

Went for lunch on Sunday Great Food and Great Staff

Great staff, great food, exceptionally busy during the offer but all served in a reasonable time

The food is high quality but I am not happy with fact bar maid shouted u done u off regardless u don't try embarass someone it is rude

Food was amazing but waited well over an hour for food to arrive. This put a damper on the evening but would come again just not on a Tuesday as its quiz night would also pick a different time slot. Staff very friendly

Fantastic place. Godd value for money bar staff is always happy to see

Excellent service, although very busy the food was served in a timely manner staff more than accommodating.

We arrived on a busy Friday evening without a booking. They kindly managed to find us a table as long as we left by 7:50. That was fine as it was only 6:20. We had a lovely meal, made even more enjoyable as we had a discount voucher. Nice drinks and very friendly, would definitely recommend.

A really nice looking pub with good food and great Brains beers (we had the SA which was really nice)

Fantastic food and excellent customer service.

Food 1st class staff 1st class

Lovely Sunday roast dinner and nice atmosphere.

Been coming here on and off but came tonight with my family and was lush. 2 girls behind the bar were like a comedy duo. Thank u very much.....now where's my glass

Met up with some girls from once upon a time high-school for a catch up and food. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming and tables were clear. We all had different meals from the menu which all turned up together. All our food was fresh and hot and tasty. I had the veggie chilli and to be fair was the best I've had (could have been a tad hotter though, next time I'll add the chillis from the side of nachos it came with). Food wasn't over priced either. Thinking I'll have to go back soon for more of that chilli 😋

There staf where lovely and the food was lovely

Staff very friendly & helpful, food was great, overall place was very clean

Lovely pub good food. Lovely outside seating area for summer months. Parking good too

The food was lovely but the service was extemely slow. We had to wait over an hour for food and another hour for our dessert. The pub was packed and there was only two kitchen staff and two waiters.

Fantastic service and food as always. Natasha does the bingo every Monday evening starts at 7 and its brilliant. Laura the manger is always accommodating. Lovely atmosphere and friendly people. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Staff amazing all of them. Food amazing

Excellent service, lovely food 👌

Always enjoy ourselves at The Fox and Hounds, Holly and Ben couldn’t be more helpful to me personally and the atmosphere is great!

Delicious meal, as always. Excellent customer service from all members of the team
