Great little pub , food is always lovely and great value for money ( especially when they have the 30% off mains deal) staff are lovely and always really helpful ( the landlady is super friendly and very accommodating) we love coming here ( I would definitely recommend booking a table as it gets really busy ) We visited on a Friday night and it was packed but the standard of food and service was not effected in anyway ( you also didn’t feel like they wanted to kick you off your table )

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.

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.

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

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*

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.

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

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.

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.

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 😋
