It is always an enjoyable experience to come for a meal or just a beer here.

Watered down gravy! Asked for extra gravy (as per the “bottomless gravy on menu) and was brought two small servings of grey water. When asked, the waiter said “it’s watered down because we’ve run out”. Unbelievable. When leaving later, we passed many tables with fresh, proper gravy. Chef maybe found the gravy granules after all.

I took my mother for Sunday roast ordered and it arrived over an hour later. The food looked rushed and served rushed also The beef was brisket and shop bought yorkshire pudding one carrot and and cabbage hardly cooked very disappointing for the money 14pound. Won't be rushing there any time soon

We arrived at 2:15pm on a Sunday after booking a table for Sunday lunch to be told that they’d ran out of Sunday dinners. Many other things on the menu also unavailable. We waited 1 hr and 30 mins for our food to come out and it was cold. We had to send a few plates back to be reheated. Staff blamed each other and took no accountability. Won’t be returning here unfortunately.

This pub/restaurant has been local to us for donkey’s years and I have to say that it’s become a shell of it’s former self. We came here for a roast dinner for my brother’s birthday and i can honestly say it was the worst roast dinner I’ve ever had. The beef was tough and anemic looking. The veg looked rotten and the roast potatoes seemed like they were cooked a week ago and warmed up in the oven. The service was also poor, forgetting drinks, and side orders, not clearing the table, not brining the bill and essentially forgetting about us completely. Items were also added to the bill including those we didn’t receive. It’s probably important to note that it wasn’t all that busy and the focus were on the daily punters and meat raffle. If you’re looking for a place to eat within the Fox and Hounds chain, harlstone furs would be a much better option.

The roast I had last weekend was poor unfortunately. Long wait, 40 mins. Yorkshire pudding as small as the ones from the local supermarket, vegetables uncooked, potatoes had no colour and very small potions of meat for the cost of the roast and no stuffing. Quite disappointing tbh. Raised our concerns, we was told it’s due to a large party (landlords table) beforehand, think we were left with the leftovers and forgotten.

Under new management so early days and hopefully it will improve with time back to it's former standard. 3 of the 5 of us eating had items missing from the menu description when the food arrived. My naan bread was like cardboard and no mango chutney or poppadoms, and they'd run out of eggs for the Ham and eggs. The burger was fine though.

4 of us came to the pub on Monday evening. It was fairly quiet so we were able to purchase our drinks & select a table. The waitress came over & took our food order. The wait was minimal & the food was exceptional. It was fresh, beautifully presented & tasted great!! The waitress was very kind & offered us table service for the drinks all evening. Would definitely recommend & we will be back!! Thankyou x

A very poor effort tbf, I have eaten here before and it's been OK. Had the trio of meats. The chicken was raw with blood, the gammon and beef had dehydrated, obviously just warmed up. Also it stated on the chalkboard about 2 courses for £17.50, which I ordered only to find out I paid full price, when I queried this the staff said that's only for those with loyalty cards...I does/did not say anything about loyalty card on the chalkboard...false advertising. So the Fox was a poor choice and won't be eating there again.

I must be getting too polite in my old age, not to have complained at the time... On our last visit to The Fox, we were served with a cocktail in a short stubby glass. This "Tequila Sunrise" was totally devoid of any sun. The very pleasant young lady who delivered it to our table, said on arrival " We've got no Grenadine" but it will taste the same". It would have been nice to have been told they couldn't produce a Tequila Sunrise before it arrived at the table in order that we could have picked a different cocktail for the eight or so pounds I paid. "Not as advertised" is I believe trading standards call it. Never again.....

An unusual pub in that the back lower half and Large covered outdoor area is a real drinkers pub Whereas the front and top is a lovely pub restaurant serving a great Sunday roast. Fabulous friendly service. We've been here numerous times when visiting the cemetery Just up the road and never been disappointed by the food. Car park is a little small only drawback.

Unfortunately I can’t leave 0 stars. This is a very poorly managed pub, as a mcmanus venue we expected better. We booked a table on the phone and then to be told when we arrived we had no booking. They told me I must’ve called the wrong pub but then I went on further to show them the call history, they had no response. They stated they couldn’t accommodate us yet when we later looked online there was a slot 30 mins later. Will not be going here ever again!

Came with my family for lunch on a Saturday. Was very disappointed in the service. We waited quite a while for our food despite it being very empty and we only ordered sandwiches or sides, we had to chase up where it was in the end. Our drinks were left on the bar so long that I had to go up and grab them myself and bring them over, this is despite there being a staff member right next to us ignoring the drinks and instead prioritising writing on the sign board. Also forgot one of our drinks from the order. When the food arrived one of the dishes had the incorrect side. Another dish they forgot to bring out the chutney. They didn't offer sauces so we had to flag them down again to eventually get them. They also started clearing plates while some of us were still eating. On a good note the food was very tasty.

Running out of food on a Saturday evening- not great..... Thank you for your reply Anthony. I do appreciate that my review sounded a little harsh and I apologise for that.... but it was not just the steak & plaice, also a desert and a starter...the salmon .... that you ran out of - and you weren't that busy. However, love the refurb, we are local, so we will be back !!
