What a wonderful pub!!! Made to feel welcome by staff and regulars. The food was amazing!! Arrived on Sunday and had Sunday lunch. Portions are huge and food was gorgeous . Had lunch the following day which was equally as tasty. Highly recommend.

We spotted a sign for the pub on our drive home cross country from Maidstone to the south coast. We were very lucky to get a table for lunch on Easter Friday, the food and service was great, good varied menu with sizeable portions and good value for money too. Good range of real ales on tap, wines, selection of non alcoholic beers and soft drinks. Highly recommended.

We had lunch there with friends, good menu choice and a special board. Food cooked very well and at a reasonable price. Good ale selection and a friendly welcome. Will come again.

Visited as a party of 7 to celebrate son-in-law's promotion to Sergeant in Kent Police, and his sister's birthday. The food was excellent, and generous in portion size. The pub was very busy on this Sunday afternoon, but we had a lovely table and enjoyed ourselves immensely. Staff very attentive, and keen that we have a good time, and they accommodated the helium balloon array that we took with us. Many thanks to staff and landlord for an excellent celebration. This is the epitome of an excellent village pub; lots of friendly people and happy chatter in a very inviting atmosphere, not swamped by loud music.

We have gone for Burns Night fo the past two years. Fantastic nights entertainment and food at a very reasonable price. Lovely staff and venue. We walk to this pub from East Peckham frequently and would consider it our local notwithstanding the distance c. 2 to 3 miles

Lovely meal in here in front of a fire in December with family. It’s a lovely cosy pub and the staff are so friendly. I had the pie and chips - the steak was succulent and juicy but the pastry was a little soggy. Nothing major and I still enjoyed it!! The menu is really varied - it was sausage night and I was tempted! Great value and lovely place - will come again.

Ate there the other night, my husband's starter was very tasty but unfortunately our mains were just ok. My husband realised after he had finished that he did not get any peas and also the grilled tomato had only been shown the grill as it was uncooked so he left it. So he had a piece of fillet steak that I usually buy for about £6, some chips and a large mushroom. This was 5p short of £20! My fish and chips were ok but the chips had a lot of black eyes but I couldn't eat them all so no matter The desert was just ok, The ice cream with it delicious. We did not say anything as we were so hungry! Also the staff were very nice,,pleasant and friendly.Very disappointed as we had read such good reviews that we travelled from south London in bad weather to eat there. Perhaps we were just unlucky as the table next to us had some very nice looking meals!

A group of six of us went to the Fox and Hound for Sunday lunch. I have never been before and found the decor and atmosphere very pleasant. The roast chicken I had was very tasty and the staff attentive. The only thing that let the overall visit down was the toilet facilities, they are old and dirty and could do with some updating.

Excellent personable service that was attentive without being rushed. All the food was well presented and clearly the cook knew his or her business. We enjoyed a leisurely lunch in an ambience where conversation was easy. The upstairs toilet were well kept with an accessible option a ground level. The sweets and coffees were just right.
