Fox & Hounds Inn in The Vale of Glamorgan

I visited The Fox and Hounds in Llancarfan to celebrate Mothers Day with some members of my family. Let me say that the quality and taste of the food was very high. I can not prise the flavour of my fish course enough. Unfortunately, the quantity of vegetables, which was meant to be shared amongst four adults, left a lot to be desired. When I saw the small dishes laid on the table, I initially thought they were individual portions. Do not expect your hunger to be satisfied here. Another negative was the fact that two very noisy dogs kept barking loudly throughout our visit, and the staff did not do anything about it. On the contrary, they were quite amused by them. All-in-all, the negative experiences spoilt the whole visit for me and family. For the prices charged, I expect a far higher standard. My wife and I meet a group of friends for a meal several times a month, and we are always on the lookout for new places to visit. Before visiting The Fox and Hounds on this occasion, we were looking forward to add another restaurant to our monthly list. The Fox and Hounds will definitely not be featuring in our meetings now or at any time in future.

Firsty I have to say that I found the roast dinner tasty. This however is the only positive thing I have to say. I was there with family on mother's day and within my family is a growing 16 year old son . We ordered 4 roast dinners and asked for additional roast potatoes (nothing unusual about that) but we were initially told that that wouldn't be possible as they had only prepped sufficient for the number of covers booked. The question remains therefore why offer an additional side on the menu at £5 but hey ho . As it turned out they were indeed able to find 3 extra potatoes,quarter them and serve as a side dish which we were thankful for. They also served this dish of vegetables( picture below) which was meant to serve 4 people! FOUR PEOPLE! when I asked for additional it has to be said I clearly annoyed the waitress as her demeanour towards us changed swiftly thereafter. We were however provided with another side dish of vegetables. All throughout this the table next to us had brought a dog in with them who was incessantly barking throughout the meal. I have a child with sensory processing autism and this loud unpleasant environment really unsettled her. I have to be honest when paying £32 a head for a meal I certainly do not expect to have a snappy dog on the next table. To add insult to injury when leaving the restaurant we were being clearly spoken about by the two kitchen staff who were pointing at us when we left the place. I mean how very dare we ask to have additional vegetables with a Sunday roast dinner! I certainly won't be returning! They could do with listening to the recent reviews of them being poor value for money and ask that their staff bear in mind that the customer experience is what they rely on! This and word of mouth!

We have just come back from a weekend staying at The Fox and Hounds. The location is just breathtaking and the Church is very old and beautiful. The rooms were comfortable and clean and warm. The food was just spectacular, Matthew and Kim are the new management team along with Chester their dog and nothing is too much trouble. Matthew is a very good chef and his food especially his Chateaubriand is absolutely delicious . We would definitely recommend it and are planning rebook in the summer.

We had a fabulous meal last night . The menu was interesting and I shared a chateaubriand with a friend which was delicious and good value . The pepper sauce was the best I’ve ever tasted and the chef came to the table to explain it took 3 days to make and it tasted like all the effort was worth it. The service was friendly . We will definitely go again soon

Beautiful location in a pretty village in the vale of Glamorgan. Right off the beaten track, in a tranquil village in the shadow of an historic church, nestled alongside a babbling brook is the Fox and Hounds. A great welcome from staff; clean room and bathroom; adjustable heating; welcome tray. The downstairs bar is bright and welcoming, whilst retaining the charm and quirkiness of an old, traditional building. The food here during our stay has been excellent. Freshly cooked, well presented and delicious. A fabulous stay in very rural surroundings, yet only half an hour outside of Cardiff city. A real break away from it all. We’ll be back! Another bonus is that this place is dog friendly!

Had a great meal and service was perfect. Love the location and atmosphere, will be going back as much as i can. Bar staff are very friendly and i have to say the best chips around!!1

A family invite on a Rugby weekend meant we found this little gem. Everything we needed for a great stay. Great food, great service and a comfortable bed with ensuite shower that woke you up in the morning, we loved it.

This place is a hidden gem. The food was some of the best we have had in Wales. The menu gave interesting and appealing options and the plates delivered were above our expectations. Would recommend without hesitation.

We last ate at The Fox and Hounds about 18 months before this visit, when it was average - nothing to complain about, but nothing special either. This time we knew that the chef and management team had changed, and had heard good things, so were very much looking forward to our meal. We were not disappointed - the welcome was friendly and genuine, the atmosphere relaxed and the food excellent. A short menu, but a good choice of options, including vegetarian (not sure about vegan) plus a few Specials. We had three courses: starters we chose were scallops in a lobster bisque and arancini with an aioli sauce - both really good. Mains were 2 steaks, both cooked exactly as required, a wild mushroom ragu, and a fillet steak pie (one of that night's specials), with sides of broccoli. All delicious and good portions. We weren't too full for desserts, which was good as they too were lovely. All in all a real pleasure to eat at this lovely old pub. The food, wine, service and welcome all deserve 5 stars, the only aspect that isn't quite up to the same level is the decor, which currently isn't as welcoming and cosy as I'd like. However it seems that this new team have exciting improvements planned so I'll look forward to going back at regular intervals to see how they're getting on (and try some other dishes, of course!).

A hidden gem! The food was fresh and delicious, very friendly staff and very nice environment. Highly recommend to get “bread and olives” for starter.

Food was excellent. Steak melted in mouth. Definitely order the garlic bread. Different to usual, and really good. Service was very good. Friendly and relaxed. Would 100% recommend and will be returning.

Fantastic meal for a party of 11! Considering the pub was packed we were not sure what to expect but absolutely fantastic quality!

We have had two fantastic meals at The Fox and Hounds since the new chef arrived, and every dish has been spot on! They also have a flavourful vegetarian choice! There is always a warm, welcoming atmosphere inside, especially in the winter months with the log burner roaring. Friendly staff and plenty of smiles. We will be back soon.

What a wonderful Inn the Fox & Hounds has become since the new chef arrived! We had dinner last night with our friends, and everyone enjoyed a great evening. The Fox is intimate but not cramped and serves delicious freshly cooked food with a good range of wine and beer options. Combine this with a great service and friendly atmosphere the Fox & Hounds is a real treat! I highly recommend it.

Really lovely tasty food last night with great service and brilliant atmosphere Thank you team Fox 👍

this is the first time in our adult lives have we ever been told that we were trouble makers and to leave the pub, the chef who refused to accept that my wifes food was not edible he tried to belittle her which was not very professional of him, he wouldn't listen to what we had to say we offered to pay for what we ate and consumed which he replied i dont want your money now get out of my pub then the son of the tennant grabbed hold of my arm and told us to get out and dont come back. This pub has been a regular place for our family for twenty five years it has changed hands over that period , we support all our local pubs never once have we ever been thrown out any where, reputation is everything in business as we no very well and recommendation plays a huge part of being successful Gareth Perkins Moulton

Lovely restaurant. Consistently delicious food and wonderful staff.

We only had a 60th Birthday party here. The food was great though I thought the Rib Eye Steak was overpriced. The bar tender said that there was NO Brambuie OR Sherry, and I was bought a Baileys instead that I don't really like,which I thought was strange, but having had a word with the Owner they DID have both, and the bartender has since left!! Many apologies from the Owner.

Heard about the new chef so had to try it out. Had the burger and it was possibly the nicest burger i have ever tasted!!! Slightly messy to eat but a taste sensation. The chips had a lovely crisp to them also. Highly recommend anyone going here for food and a quiet drink.

What an amazing place ! I went for food with a few of my friends today and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming by all staff . The food was phenomenal and my mouth was bursting with flavours with every bite . I have the fillet mignon and chocolate and cherries for dessert.. best place I’ve eaten out too in a very long time and will be back very soon. I’d definitely recommend the fox and hound to everyone .

Part of a group on Saturday night for a family birthday party. Food excellent though getting cutlery for various courses was a bit hit and miss. Daughter was given a soup spoon for her pavlova. The toilets were most disappointing, being very scruffy and there being nowhere to change a small baby except on the not particularly clean floor.

A fabulous Sunday lunch at the Fox and Hounds. Wonderful rump steak, belly pork and the best burger ever! Great professional and friendly service. We’ll be back very soon. I took the photos before I put the gravy on. All of the accompaniments were delicious especially the cauliflower cheese 😋😋

Delicious meal this evening at the fox and hounds, fillet steak with tripple cooked chips and blue cheese sauce, my partner had the fish and chips both were outstanding and full of flavour, the best mac and cheese we've ever had 👌 we will definitely be visiting again, the service was spot on and nothing was to much trouble, a credit to your industry guys 👍

Had the most gorgeous Sunday lunch here. There was a great variety of dishes and something for everyone. I had Brie, another had the cauliflower soup, and another had the pigeon - all to die for. Our beef and turkey ballotine roasts came with everything you would want and more, even cauliflower cheese, and were just delicious. We couldn’t fault anything. It really felt like we were fine dining without the price. All of the staff were amazing and couldn’t do enough to help. I’d highly recommend this gem of a pub to anyone and everyone. We left the place after booking in to enjoy their festive menu in a few weeks time. We can’t wait to be back!

With the new Sunday menu and the new festive menu, everything was catching my eye with that I just had to try , with no regret what so ever , the experience and food was nothing like I’ve had before, flavours was out of this world. Hats off to the chefs. The size of the food is amazing for what you pay. Presentation was beautifully put together and thought out even down to the table placements. The service was very attentive , really made me feel welcome. I will be recommending to friends and family and will be returning myself. Thank you for such a lovely time.

This is the first time I’ve eaten in the Fox and Hounds and highly recommend. We went to have Sunday lunch. It’s refreshing to go somewhere that actually serves really good home cooked food that tastes stunning. I had the Welsh rare beef which was served with carrot and swede purée, honey glazed roasted parnips, roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, broccoli, braised red cabbage and cauliflower cheese. The portions were a great size and fantastic value for money. Others had the overnight pork belly, and turkey ballotine. If you have children there is a small fox portion from the same menu. For Dessert I had The Salted caramel cheesecake which was a delight every spoonful. Service was attentive and welcoming. I will be returned very soon and can’t wait to try the Festive menu. To sum it up, it was well worth the visit!

Me and my wife went down for Sunday lunch, the best roast dinner we have ever had, the beef was perfect and cooked to perfection, everything on my plate was amazing, for starters we had the Brie which was lush, overall I’d give this 11/10 and will definitely be going back and recommending this place to all my friends and family.

What a fabulous find!!! We booked here because it was dog friendly and convenient for Barry Island and Trelai park run. It is a lovely old pub full of charm. I was so grateful when we arrived late afternoon in the pouring rain to find that they had gluten free options on the menu.. including fish & chips!!! The best bit about this stay was the really wonderful service… breakfast was served until 10am but we wanted to do the park run at 9 and it was a 23 minute drive so we were going to get back by the skin of our teeth. But when we spoke to the lovely lady that morning she was so chilled.. she said we would be fine and sure enough when we got back just after 10 our breakfasts were cooked for us without any fuss! They were just kind! How is that for being amazing! We were chuffed! And as check out was 11am there was time for a shower as well 🤣 Bonus!

A little off the beaten track but the rooms were good and clean. The locals were very welcoming and Emily who runs the place is an absolute diamond. I highly recommend the food served here and we'll worth the money paid. A beautiful village owned pub I believe and although a continental breakfast was part of the deal it was very nice and one of our party who is gluten free was catered for over and beyond on request the previous night.

This is a typical village pub in a quiet village next to a small river. It is many years since I last visited and it has undergone at least one change in ownership. The bar and dining rooms are quite bare and not particularly welcoming. However the staff are friendly. You can sit inside or out but because of the valley you will not see much sun. There is a good selection of food which is well cooked and enjoyable at reasonable prices. We paid £63 for 3 at dinner including drinks but not service. It is a pleasant place for a drive into the country and dinner.

This is a delightful place to stay. Set deep in the Vale of Glamorgan, in a beautiful village, teeming with history, surrounded by wonderful countryside, peaceful and relaxing, and yet up-to-date with all modern conveniences. Near to Cardiff, Cardiff Airport, gorgeous Penarth, Dyffryn Gardens (National Trust), Welsh National Folk Museum and of course Barry Island, it makes an ideal base, and sanctuary to retreat to after a hard day's sight-seeing. Adjacent Llancarfan church is a 'must see' for anyone interested in history, with it's spectacular medieval wall paintings. The staff are helpful and friendly. My room (Room 4) was huge and contained a comfortable setee plus spacious bathroom and comfortable double bed. It was so quiet at night. the bar oozes character, and outside there is plenty of stylish, contemporary seating, including a fantastic veranda. My only gripe was that the evening meal was poor and tasteless. It had obviously been pre-cooked and re-heated. Also the 'breakfast included' was of the continental variety. No cooked breakfast available unfortunately. A disappointment. Otherwise, brilliant!

We’ve visited this beautiful country pub on many occasions and have always had good service and food. On the spur of the moment we decided to go there for a. Sunday lunch and were very disappointed. The welcome wasn’t as warm as we’d experienced in the past, We were told that they were not doing Sunday lunch because the usual Chef was away, We decided to go ahead as we were there, it wasn’t busy so we expected good service. My wife ordered off the specials board but was told that they would need to check with the chef, they came back and said that it was no longer available. We both ordered off the main menu, the food arrived and it was OK. No one checked to see if everything was OK. It took some time for our plates to be removed. We were then asked if we wanted deserts we we ordered coffee and treacle pudding. They said that they were unsure if there was any treacle pudding left and would need to check, no one came back and we assumed that it wasn’t available The coffee turned up, after half an hour of waiting to see if someone would ask us if we wanted the bill we decided to go and pay at the bar. The waitress appeared and said that the treacle pudding was on its way, we asked for the bill at the same time because we had been there for a good while waiting for service. We had the pudding and the bill which was almost £80 for the 2 of us and could see that a service charge had been added. Our views are not meant to criticise but to be constructive. - someone needs to be there to lead, have a bit of oomph about them and make guests feel welcome - there’s no point having specials on the board if they’re not available, it takes a second to rub out chalk on the board - staff should know what isn’t available without constantly checking with the chef - customers should have confirmation if an item they’ve ordered is or isn’t available - it would be nice if customers were asked now and again if everything is ok with the meal - service should be top notch if there’s a service charge, in this case it should have been a tip based on service which would incentivise the staff. We won’t be returning soon but would gladly do so if the food and service improves.

Lovely warm welcoming pub in a beautiful tranquil village in the heart of the vale. Food was stunning, steak cooked to perfection and served with the best chips we’ve ever tried, chicken burger was to die for, huge portions and it was all presented lovely. Restaurant was very clean, the service was outstanding and overall genuinely beautiful little gem of a pub. Compliments to the chef and all staff, we will definitely be back. Outside has a lovely little beer garden over looking a beautiful soft flowing river a great place to unwind even if you just fancy a drink.

First time visit today and a wonderful one it was! At first we were not impressed with the lunchtime menu options, but were proved wrong when the dishes arrived! I wish I remembered to take photos, but will definitely visit again. Highly recommend the fish goujons, chicken wings and the chicken bacon burger. The dishes were very generous and extremely filling, it’s hearty pub styled food in an unpretentious way within a beautiful building and location. As for the young lady serving us, she was fabulous, very friendly and welcoming.

Visited here for dinner last night with 3 friends, we all chose something different to eat and we were not disappointed. I tried the beef lasagne which was extra cheesy - just the way I like it! We also had, a tasty calzone, a fish and chips & a crispy chicken Caesar salad. All we’re very tasty and plentiful. Service from the young staff was excellent and well definitely be back!

Unbelievably poor. Ok where the hell do I start here, let's be positive the young staff where lovely and nice. Now the food... Oh my god presentation non existent, steak served on a brown plate with a onion ring on top, resembled a two day old cow pat with the golden liquid on show. Steak was tough and frankly garbage. My wife's lasagne dear god above probably the most rankest looking pile of cat puke you could imagine, don't worry photos to prove.🍻 She left it after a few tastes. The cutlery looked like something my great grandmother had in her bottom draw, stained brown and should have been used as a horror movie prop. Mr chef get a grip look at what your serving and on what. Dark brown meat on a crap brown plate. Really then you got to use great grannies cutlery.

We stayed here for a night, and had dinner downstairs in the pub. Rooms were very clean and lovely, and it has a nice big car park. The food and service was excellent, and we’d definitely recommend it here.

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID. "Dropped by" as they state on their website for a pub lunch on a glorious Saturday with Mum and our 2 teens. Asked for the food menu whilst ordering drinks and asked if we had booked, to which we replied no and advised that booking is essential and we couldn't have food . This was at 12.45pm, restaurant was empty apart from a table of 4 and we sat enjoying a drinks in the garden until 1.45pm, restaurant still empty!!! How disappointing. It's a pub not a restaurant and nowhere does it say booking essential. Will not be returning, how disappointing.

Great atmosphere typical friendly pub to visitors. Had 2 excellent meals in basket (cheap as chips), terrific value. So impressed booked Sunday lunch, great start to our holiday. I’ll be back!

A warm welcoming place to get some amazing food. We both had the beef roast, it was delicious. It was our 3rd time coming and we’ll be back again. Everyone who works there is so friendly and you can tell they care about the place!

Lovely restaurant in a gorgeous location. Staff really friendly. Food was delicious and chef came out to check all was ok. Lovely venue for a special occasion.

We revisited here for Sunday Lunch after an amazing first last summer. However we were left bitterly disappointed and the meal we were served was very poor. The beef and lamb were incredibly tough, gravy gloopy and the mashed potato had raw lumps in it!...

We had a lovely stay. 10 out of 10. Our dog enjoyed it too. Not far from some great walks. Barry was great to walk aroundown. We had a look in the church next door and saw the very old wall paintings.

Abbiamo cenato per due sere in questo ristorante pub visto che era la nostra location anche come camera e ne abbiamo approfittato come giusta pausa dopo le lunghe escursioni giornaliere. Cucina varia del territorio ma rivisitata. Tempi di attesa un po’ lunghi tra una portata e l’altra. Abbiamo mangiato sia pesce che dell’ottima carne a prezzo estremamente ragionevole

Lovely Sunday lunch served in pleasant surroundings by attentive and polite staff. Couldn’t fault it - my father & I both had the beef which was cooked to perfection, whilst our respective wive’s had the bass which they thoroughly enjoyed. Desserts were all very tasty, the Malteser Loaf being my favourite, but do try their unique ‘Fox’ flavour ice cream.

The outside space of this pub is great, the food was lovely and just what we wanted, Service was good, couldn't fault it at all

New extended dining room very light and airy. Menu gave good choice and the staff were friendly and service was very good. Would recommend as good value for money.

Had lunch at the fox and hounds last Sunday.The welcome was good and we were taken to our table immediately.I had the beef which was really excellent and the best I have tasted for a long time.My wife had the pork which was equally as good.The vegetables were served hot and very tasty.

We enjoyed our albeit very short stay on our way along the coast to near Tenby.

It is easy to be over lavish with five-star gradins, so I will be restrained and reflect and give two fives stares anyway.

We were staying in a Cottage nearby for a wedding, Sunday "recovery" was a family walk and then Sunday Lunch at the Fox and Hounds - nice pub in a lovely village -really enjoyed the meal, great service, and very good food - veg /roastie portions not huge but ample (we didn't ask for more, I'm sure it would have been forthcoming if we had). Not particularly cheap but quality very good so worth it. I'd definitely go again.

A group of us went for Sunday lunch. I am on a diet so thought I would not be as well catered for but the salad was out of this world. The rest had roast beef, 2 asked for it well done and it was, the other was pink. We had drinks, starters and mains and it only came to 20 quid a head

Stumbled on the Fox and Hounds during a drive out from the nearby Tackleshed holiday home in Moulton. The pub was extremely welcoming and full of fellow rugby fanatics! The barman was very helpful and although fully booked, he kindly managed to squeeze us into the restaurant for an early evening dinner. The quality and presentation of the food merits the AA rosette award they have for this year 2018-2019 - simply delicious! Would recommend to anybody who finds themselves in this rural backwater of South Wales.

Choose the Fox and Hounds after reading Cardiff Life magazine which awarded them with the best Gastropub so had to give it a try.

Finding a proper Sunday lunch isn’t easy but the Roast Beef at the Fox & Hounds was excellent. Good portions, freshly cooked. Excellent puddings available.

This is a great hidden gem of a place, tucked away in the village of Llancarfan close to Barry. Our room was very comfortable, crisp white bedding with cosy duvet and pillows. Great shower in the mornings, with toiletries supplied if needed. Our meals were exceptional. Wonderful scrambled eggs with smoked salmon, fresh wholemeal bread to cut ourselves for toast. Meals in the restaurant were stunning, and the mango and passion fruit sorbet was to die for. A relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff made for an ideal stay. We will definitely be returning.

My wife and I stayed at the Fox and Hounds as a birthday treat for my wife.

What a delicious meal and a fabulous inn. The smoked salmon starter was light and very tasty, the other members of my family had the scotch egg and creamed mushrooms so we ended up all picking at each other’s and it was all delicious. The sea bream main course was exceptional as was every main meal that was ordered. Although we were all full we could not resist the rice pudding with home made Turkish delight - the comments from everyone were that it was to die for !!!! Highly recommend it.

I would have expected to have hot water for a shower in the morning, this was not possible I was told ,I was disappointed by the response of the management who expressed little regret at our inconvenience. No offer of recompense ,won't be going back
