Foxhound Pub in Staffordshire Moorlands - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Beautiful country pub, great atmosphere, good prices .. fabulous landlords

Extremely friendly landlord and landlady.

So friendly, great beer food and fun, well done on being such a great local!

Pub under new management, dog friendly.

Lovely pub Lovely people great night as always

Last night the Rotary Club held our meeting here. The landlady Sue cooked a wholesome supper of chilli and a lobby. There was plenty to go round, we left warm and full. Thanks to Sue and Steve for a fab pub.

Relaxed atmosphere in a traditional country pub.

Great pints at good prices. Friendly staff

Sadly this pub does not provide food (meals) nor do they permit dogs inside. Their choice of course, mine is to spend my money elsewhere.

Very disappointed to find that this pub is not dog friendly. Dog walking country and not dog friendly. 🙄 when booking our holiday cottage we were led to believe it was dog friendly!

We booked a table for Sunday lunch to be told the meat was lamb, explanation later. Walking into the pub we were greeted and made welcome by the owner. The waitress, Clio, showed us to our table. It transpired that the pub has a small menu and today, Sunday, the lunch was lamb; accompanied by carrots, cauliflower cheese, roast and new potatoes, and gravy. The meal was plentiful and tasty; this was home cooking, none of your off-site cooked and then brought to table food you often get in big chain pubs. Take it from us - if Carling did Sunday lunch they probably couldn’t do one as nice as this one. Again the desert was limited for choice, an almond flavoured, jam sponge with custard (or ice-cream, and likely as not both if you so desired) or mince pie, again with a choice of topping. All rounded off with coffee of one’s choice. Now not to decry the the Foxhounds in anyway, this is not your normal pub fare, this is more like being invited to your parents or friends for lunch - good food, simply prepared. Our waitress was charming and couldn’t do enough for us throughout our stay. Located on Biddulph Moor the pub enjoys a delightful rural setting; sat out here on a summer’s day must be a delight. An added incentive is likely the beer, as the owner took pride in his beers and the tip-top state he kept them in. I can confirm that his wines are nice too. This was our first visit to the Foxhounds, but as Arnold Schwarzenegger might have said - “we will be back!”

Lovely find today for Sunday lunch. Warm hosts, cozy pub vibes super chilled atmosphere. Spoke to the owners Mike and Jean, really interesting to hear their story, super friendly chap. Cleo who served us was just gorgeous, very efficient and polite. Will be paying them another visit soon hopefully. Downside is a no dogs indoors policy which wot suit everyone unless you ditch the dog for a day off!

Very friendly, we say in the marquee as we had a pooch with us, but we were made very welcome and were quite cosy. We had a very nice roast chicken, a few too many potatoes for us with roast, new and mashed! Plus bread sauce! But all very tasty, we could have done with a little more gravy but that was minor.

Lovely welcome. Very very obliging and the young lady serving was a delight and brought our rescue dog a bowl of water. The chips are to die for too ! Thank you. Regards Annette

Enjoyed a table in the beer garden with friends and we couldn’t have had a better experience . The food was simple but delicious , service and friendliness couldn’t be bettered. Haven’t put much on trip adviser over covid but simply had to say what a gem of a pub this is , will be returning most definitely .

A very nice pub, beers are really good. They have bluemoon on tap. Had a fantastic afternoon in the beer garden.

Absolutely amazing, lovely welcome & Jeans cooking is top notch, our favourite pub x

Perfectly kept beer and, as always, a really warm welcome!

Lovely little pub with 2 lovely owners who are in their senior years but with that comes experience so the beer is to die for. It is a free house so if it Bass,Pedigree,London Pride any of these is my tipple and have not tasted better anywhere,the wife likes a cider so the old mout cider hits the spot. So for a warm welcome and a superb beer you will not go wrong and a great beer garden as well

Lovely place, can't fault it 👌 great food too 😋

Very well run and spotlessly clean!!

The landlords are delightful the food excellent they have a huge selection of drinks and the views are wonerful

Lovely atmosphere, very accommodating with our book club.

Booked a table for Sunday lunch as we walked in we were made very welcome by the owners very homely and relaxed ambience . The Sunday lunch was delicious and the home made carrot cake the best l have had .definitely will be returning ....

Great atmosphere and warm open fire

We were a group of 11 staying locally for the weekend. Looked online for somewhere who would cater for all of us for Sunday lunch and found this lovely pub. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious (mains and desserts). Highly recommend!

Cosy pub, lovely people and great food

A lovely cosy pub, delicious food and warm welcome! Well worth a visit.

This is a lovely little local pub ran by a couple who can't do enough for you. Make you feel like you're at home. They have a small but very nice menu and you can order anything you want not from the menu ahead of time.

15 weary ramblers returned hear for lunch after a six mile hike, mine hosts Mike and Jean were very accommodating and welcoming. Couldn’t fault the service the food and the price. The home made Marie Rose sauce with prawns was a delight. G.🍷🍾🍺🥂🥃🍽

The most friendliest pub I've ever been to. Great ale and fantastic food!!

Fantastic food and great service

Great beers great atmosphere. Lovely history to the place

What a lovely hour or so I've had beautiful surroundings looking forward to coming again lovely staff would recommend highly

fantastic food with a great friendly service

Local community atmosphereGreat food. Low prices.

A most unusual pub with an even more unusual garden! Very friendly hosts who provide excellent service with good simple home cooked food. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Love coming to this little oasis in the moors. Great fresh food and a good range of drinks. Staff very friendly and attentive. A must for all.

The staff and owners here are fantastic. The food is made to order, so don't expect your usual pub prices. You have to order in advance and I would definitely book in advance.

Wonderful food. Great owners and sevice

Excellent food, service and price. Nice cosey place, the service was so good and the food was lovely and fresh - very cheap too! Very impressed 😁

Wow fantastic place well worth a visit fantastic food Mike and Jean are absolutely brilliant they make you feel very special from when you arrive to when you leave xxx

Plesent decor and hosts. Going to try meal next time

First class all round. Will definitely be dining there again very soon. Thank you for your hospitality enjoyed our meal very much.

When we arrived at the pub the land lord was so welcoming as soon as we walked through the door and through out our meal. The service was very good and the food was so tasty. the atmosphere was quiet but just what you need on a Sunday afternoon Will definitely be returning

Delicious lunch here, warm and cosy, lovely friendly waitress, excellent value. Stuffed pepper and huge slice of lemon drizzle.

Lived here with my Gran in the 60's when it was a typical country boozer. The new owners have completely changed the inside! Normally not a lover of 'makeovers' but this one has been tastefully done and has certainly set it on the right road to continue for many years to come. Very good selection of beers (stand fast London Pride (ugh)). We were too late for lunch so cannot comment on the food. Highly recommended for a visit,

The owners Mike & Jean are great host, most recommended.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Called here for lunch following a walk. Food fine and not over priced, although I did wonder at the crab cakes with sweet potato - very tasty- but unable to taste any crab probably because the sweet potato was too powerful. Easy parking and outside seating. dogs are also welcome

Great views and very welcoming hosts

Fantastic night, an amazing host and hostess , was made to feel extremely welcome listening to a guy playing and singing oldies but goodies , loved it how a pub should be

Very friendly and helpful good food & drink

Lovely pub, Mike and Jean are wonderful hosts

Great friendly local pub. We had the best ever Sunday lunch here today sat outside in the sunshine. Great service and food. Lovely surroundings..the gardens around the pub look great.

Lovely pub great hosts. Good homemade food, Jean's homemade Guinness cake is one of the best cakes I have ever had.

Whilst visiting the area we called in this lovely little pub and were pleasantly surprised by its charm. Lovely food - warm welcoming staff - a real gem of a place. Can't wait to visit again.

What a lovely pub in a fabulous location. Good food and the staff cannot do enough for you. The owner Jean is very welcoming and gave us a lot of information on the area. I have to mention the home made cakes - these are gorgeous and rounded off our meal a treat. This was our first visit but it wont be our last we will back.

Roaring log fire, warm, friendly, cheerful with fine cask ales and good food.

Cosy little pub that seems to be recently refurbished. nice atmosphere helped by a roaring fire.

We live down the road, news of The Foxhound reopening was great news. Booked a table for Sunday lunch and we were not disappointed. The interior decor mixed old with new and the atmosphere just drew us in. Starter was Vegetable and Stilton soup with crusty roll. Main course I had Pork with all the trimmings including crackling yummy. Dessert was Apple Crumble with Custard to die for. All the food appeared home made, Claire who was behind the bar made us very welcome and it was a very enjoyable afternoon. Thank you guys for breathing new life into the Foxhound, we will see you again very soon 5*****

Nipped in for a quick drink after hearing they have reopened after 2 years and all we can say is... an amazing setup, lovely atmosphere, local beer available and a few gins.. well done guys.. they are doing Sunday lunches but you need to book, looked good when it went passed me..keep up the good work 😀😀
