The Fox and Hounds in Wakefield

Off the cuff call on way home from a weekend away. The kids needed some dinner. We can all honestly say was one of the best pub meals we have had in all our pub lunch experiences. Great to find an unspoken gem without intention. Definitely recommended and will be back

My mum broke down this evening and the gents who worked in the pub could not of been more helpful the ran to the main road pushed her into the car park and were so happy to help what a credit to you they are it was dark and nobody stopped to help and I had my three year old with me so couldn’t do anything as didn’t want to leave or walk down a road with him thank you very much next time we’ll be sure to stop for food and drinks

We went for Sunday dinner that was really nice. We also had drinks that I was not happy with price 1 x pint of larger & 1 x pint of larger shandy. We was charged for 2 x pints of larger & a plash of lemonade making it dear for drinks.

Just had a lovely meal on a thursday night. Really good food and service.

Met our friends for a meal. The service was excellent and friendly. The food was fresh and delicious. I thought it was good value and a good choice from the menu

Just had there fox burger and it’s was beautiful really well cooked and the portions are high. My wife also recommended the steak pie. We will be back soon.

We had a bad experience when the previous people where running the fox and hounds, however, since the new owners have taken over, the improvements are very noticeable, great food at a great price with quality service to back it up, highly recommended. 👍

Stopped in as we were staying near by and had our dog with us and couldn’t leave her. We had a wonderful time! The staff are fantastic. So helpful and quick. The food menu was delicious and unique. They made such a fuss over our dog that she didn’t want to leave. Would definitely recommend, especially the nachos as they’re huge and the SFC burger which was delicious. So happy they’re doggie friendly and a great time had by humans and dogs!

I have written this to help as I would love to see The Fox and Hounds be successful, so on that note, it may really help if you get the correct number on the website - you are missing out on potential customers. We kept trying to ring and book a group for Saturday evening and no answer, so I called in when passing and was told the number is incorrect!!

We stopped here on the way further north for a pit stop and very pleasantly surprised. Very welcoming pub. Spotlessly clean, friendly service and we both had an excellent burger. Also made our dog feel welcome with treats and pooh bags available at the entrance.

Had a brilliant evening here for my birthday celebration along with 14 other friends &family, nothing was too much trouble the food was cooked perfectly it all came out together On time , it all just flowed seamlessly and it was really reasonably priced with really friendly staff too,

Beautiful food!! Lovely staff!! Definatly be coming here more often!!

Great food , good service and a relaxed atmosphere. Dog friendly. Lunch menu and evening menu. New owners been there maybe 6 months and they’ve made it nice again

Lovely and clean, friendly bar maid/waitress, food was very good, tasted great and was plenty. Dog friendly and clean loos.

Nipped in in passing and had a stunning Sunday lunch....quality was way better than expected!! Brilliant food.

I can’t recommend this pub highly enough. New manager is really working hard to make this place special. Food is excellent and service is friendly. Give it a go!

Served by Abbie who was excellent and attentive. Food was really good and very tasty, quite a busy night but Abbie managed to provide an excellent service.

We stopped by chance to cut a long journey and it was truly a wonderful surprise! The service was really lovely and the food was excellent! I give a special mention to the sticky toffee pudding with custard: I haven't found an equivalent and yet I have tried it!! In the end we thanked all the traffic jams that pushed us off the highway!!!

We really enjoyed our meals The fish and chips were beautiful. The batter on the fish was light as a feather. Good portion sizes too.

Ok so ignore the previous 1 star reviews, this place had reopened under new management yet again.... this time, with experienced management and all staff in the kitchen and front of house are experienced.... Team fox now have established a really good , memorable experience for diners. It's 5 star hygiene rating thats just been recieved (August 2024) the food is now homecooked, fresh ingrediants cooked to suit. The pub is clean, fresh and has a warm welcoming. There is a lunch menu, a children's, a main and a QUIZ night on a Tuesday evening. Would highly recommend a visit now it is gaining 5 star reviews

Nice food and lovely staff will definitely be back

Pretty standard beer choice. Nothing great, but this is foodie pub so as expected. Place is light, airy and clean with big glass windows. Food was well presented and very tasty. 10 covers and every plate cleared. Large car park. Toilets are upstairs but clean.

Popped in for a meal with the family after a long day in the heat. The food was fantastic and the service was really on point. The staff and kitchen couldn’t do enough to help accommodate our 3 year old daughters funniness when it came to her chocolate mousse who was adamant it was ice cream 😂 The level of understanding from the kitchen and the waitress was fantastic resulting in her getting strawberries and chocolate sauce - even though it was not on the menu. We had one very content daughter going home, thank you 🍺 We have really stumbled upon a brilliant place to eat and if we are ever passing again I’d make sure we come to visit again, but little madam will not be having the chocolate mousse I promise. Thanks again to all involved!

Delicious food served hot and with a smile. Recommended.

Starters Korean chicken bites (Highly recommend) & Chicken Tenders Mains sausage and Mash, seasonal veg & Steak n Ale pie, creamy mash seasonal veg Desserts choc fudge cake with ice cream & cheesecake of the day All Excellent very tasty and hot service was fast servers were very polite. Will definitely go again.

Fantastic food but a bit pricey.

Nicest steak pie I have had in a long time, lovely pub and dog friendly.

June 2024 Thought we'd give this place another now new owners have taken over. Found it to be the best it's been in years. Service very efficient and friendly. Food was lovely. Atmosphere nice and chilled, even had a live singer on. Will definitely be back. July 2024 Back now a few weeks later to try Sunday lunch.... food absolutely gorgeous. Service top notch again. Highly recommend.

Really good food and helpful staff

The food was delicious. Couldn't fault anything. There was a bit of a wait for food to arrive but don't mind waiting when it is that good. Wish we were closer as would definitely go on a regular basis!

Food was outstanding, service slow, staff very nice, polite, chatty overhaul good

Amazing place with great staff, cozy environment and super delicious fish and chips 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 Loved it! Thank you!

Had an amazing beef dinner on Sunday. The Yorkshire pudding was unreal! Staff were very attentive and although it was busy, the meals didn't take very long to come at all.

Great Pub Food with a Friendly Welcome By The Chef and Management 💙 Catered for all Diet needs including my own (gluten free) will be visiting again for Sunday dinner, Truffle mash to die for 😍

We ate here as a family of four our grandchildren loved it we did too huge portions great freshly cooked food good value you need to try it this pub has new owners and I will certainly go back soon and highly recommend to friends and family give it a try you won't regret it!

Called for a Sunday lunch yesterday as it has just re-opened and thought we would give it a try, only to be disappointed. It was very disappointing from start to finish. Waited 15 mins before anyone even came to take our order. We ordered 2 lime and lemon drinks. When it arrived it came with soda instead of lemonade. From placing our order our dinner arrived 40 mins late. When it arrived all I can say is we won't be going again. The food was terrible. The only good part to it were the yorkshire puddings. Unfortunately, I don't see it staying open long which is a shame as years ago it was a really nice place to dine.

A cosy looking pub serving beautifully cooked food. Black pudding scotch egg to start, then a Beef and Ale pie which was not only home cooked but filled with the best braised beef I have tasted in a long while plus fresh vegetables cooked to perfection, followed by a mouthwatering hot fudge brownie which I totally recommend. Service was excellent and staff friendly. I gather the pub has had a refurb recently and although it was a cold wet Thursday night i would expect it to be much busier. I wouldn't hesitate to return!

We popped into the fox and hounds after the new takeover what a lovely atmosphere it has now we were greeted with a friendly smile we only had a drink as we did not realise they now serve food which is great what we saw coming out of the kitchen looked really good all freshly cooked we will certainly be back to try the food now we know we wish you all the best and I’m sure all will go well see you soon

Fantastic food & service ! New management has really made a difference. Highly recommended :)

I had a very nice chicken burger for lunch. Friendly staff. Nice place. Would definitely revisit.

Ignore previous reviews, The Fox is now under New management, i'd recommend anyone to give the new team a chance

Terrible! Terrible Terrible Food awful, owner as fake as they come. Spanish chef?? My arse! Another delboy Staff were amazing working under terrible conditions. Owner dumped friends like a brick along with staff. Staff owed wages Avoid like the plague including any other business associated with them. Hope the staff can move on and find new employment soon.

Really thought this place would have been given a overhaul, new owners, new experience but sadly its ended in its doors being closed for good, yet again. Never got going. Such a shame, the location isnt ideal as its in middle of nowhere

Really looked forward to finally returning to this pub after it reopened as it was lovely when the other people had it, never had an issue, and the food was amazing before Sadly the food is dire there now It's such a shame as this was a fabulous pub before it was taken over Will not return

Booked for a special birthday. The Sunday dinner was what is served at a school! O cannot express my disappointment enough. Portion size was shocking, no taste, worst Sunday dinner I have ever had and on a par with the school meal we have with the children. It was £14! Needless to say will not be returning. Went under the old management and it was lovely and expected similar. One small floret of cauliflower (we think frozen because it was mush) one small potato cut into four and frozen peas. Gravy was not home made. We all came back home to eat something because we all hungry. Service was fine and yes, we did complain - shocked at how poor it was

We booked a meal for Easter Sunday over the phone, checked the hours, we are open till 8pm the lady said, so we booked and confirmed for 7pm Arrived at 6.59 to be greeted with sorry we are closed, we said well we have a meal booked for 7pm for 2 people, the response was, oh sorry this was cancelled on our system, they had my number but didn’t bother to inform us that it was cancelled, since re opening it never appears to be busy when passing, now we know why, it’s a joke of a place, I would avoid trying here, support your local business, sorry not this one

We came for Sunday lunch recently. The staff were working really hard, can’t fault the service but the food was just nothing special. You can get better sunday lunches round here for the same price/cheaper. Whilst the meat was well cooked, the veg choices were boring - parsnips and carrots were boiled and not roasted, roast potatoes were soggy rather than crispy, don’t know if they’d been microwaved. The food wasn’t particularly hot either. We’ll probably not return in a hurry as I feel there is better quality food in other places.

A monthly treat out with the grandparents spoilt. Upon entering we were greated by the bar tender who said we could choose any table. We had who looked like the owner of the place eyeing us up as she was walking up and down trying to look busy and important. The menu was lack luster barely anything of choice no proper gastro food or steak meal options. So to start off with we ordered drinks whilst deciding on what to choose from the limited options we had off the menu. When it came to ordering the food me and my grandad ordered two steak pies with chips and mushy peas these looked like they were bought from Icelands frozen section. The pie was cold barely warm in the middle mushy peas cold too some chips were burnt and some were under cooked. The fish and chips my grandma ordered had the same chips cold, some burnt and under cooked and the batter on the fish was soggy same goes for the mushy peas tin bought cold. The pitta and dip my sister ordered looked dry and hard like sand paper. Inconclusion the food expirence was really disappointing so we got up and asked to pay which was discounted and left such a shame which once a good reputable venue to eat at.

Visited here the other week with my family and let me tell you we will NOT be visiting again! Firstly we came mid week and barely anybody in at all which should’ve been a sign to run a mile!! 😧🫣 A blonde bar staff member told us to take a seat and she would be over in “a couple of minutes” to take our drinks order- did not bother to show us over to our seat and greeted us with the most dull face as if she didn’t even want to speak to us. After a long couple of minutes! The girl came to take our drinks order and then came back for our food order. We must have been waiting nearing an hour for 3 meals (no starters)- no updates in between and as I say the place was dead so you would think their only customers would be their main concern😒 During this time the manager was sat in the sofa area drinking round on round of alcoholic drinks and walking up and down staring customers down. Seemed very arrogant and like the few customers were a nuisance being there!! Having looked at other reviews clearly it is not just our family that have noticed this!! When the food arrived my fish and chips were truly shocking!!!!! The fish was soggy and wet and the chips were so greasy and burnt that when you ate them they burst with oil in your mouth. Totally unenjoyable and disgraceful for a “GASTRO pub”. Worse than Wetherspoons! My wife and my daughter ordered other meals which were cold and which they did not enjoy. We were never asked if we wanted drink top ups or desserts. Service and food absolutely terrible Stay away

AVOID AT ALL COSTS !!! Went with my family for a meal out , the menu was lacklustre with hardly any choices . My Grandad and brother had the steak pie with chips and mushy peas . The meal came out COLD , chips weren’t cooked and some were burnt . My grandma had the fish and chips and the batter was soggy , I had the pitta and dip and it came out luke warm and dry!!! We spoke to what I presumed is the owner and explained that the meals came out cold and she went into the back and said that she’d checked the temperature with a thermometer and said it was hot enough . There was no apology either. Such a shame because it was once a nice restaurant.

Called today for lunch as we had not been since Covid. My wife had the chicken tarragon while I had the Pickering smash burger. My wife’s meal arrived and she thought the chicken in sauce and the mash were very good,But the broccoli was cooked within an inch of its life. After about five minutes of waiting for mine I told my wife to start an eat hers. The waitress came over and said the would have to re cook mine as they had put a sauce on it , this was despite her telling the kitchen staff twice about it. My second cooked burger arrived 15 minutes after my wife’s meal with an apology for them saying they would sort it out. Enclosed for the two meal photos. My burger was as you can see still raw on the inside. When we came to pay they charged full price for my burger and when challenged resorted to calculator to decide what to knock off. We told them to keep it as we would not be returning. A shame that this once nice eating pub has deteriorated so much

Unsure on food, not eaten there yet but looks lovely. Great service and a good pint of Cruz campo.

Staff were friendly and was served quickly. We ordered starters, garlic mushroom and chilli lemon battered prawns. Mushrooms were OK but prawns had no chilli. Main course tarragon chicken was very dry, too much grain mustard in mash and side vegetables were soggy carrots with one tiny peice of broccoli! Steak pie was like a frozen pie, gravy was very salty and too much of it. Very disappointed with food. Won't be visiting again sorry.

Had the beef carvery, well nice would highly recommend. Loads of choice of beers. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely be going back

Absolutely fantastic food! Brilliant friendly staff food came out hot and fast service would definitely recommended we will be returning xx

Visited for light dinner Prawns to start Meat pie and chips to follow Well cooked great staff helpful and friendly Recommend

The food was absolutely shocking and luke warm. Clearly all tinned and frozen produce. An hour wait and the place was empty. Rude owner walking around the place looking people up and down. No wonder they have a 2 star hygiene rating. Won't be going back.

We have not been before and unfortunately will not go again. We arrived at 12.03pm on a Sunday. We got a warm welcome and could be fitted in (hadn't booked). Our 1st problem was the drinks which were wrong but we didn't mind and didn't say anything. we ordered Sunday roasts, mine being vegetarian. We were either the 2nd or 3rd couple to order. At 12.40 we were still sat there and no staff had been over to apologise until one probably heard me grumbling to my husband. She explained that the vegetarian option took longer to cook which I understand but I could have made it myself in 50 minutes at home. After waiting 50 minutes (and being 3rd to order food) it arrived, however the mashed potatoes were stone cold, the roast parsnips so undercooked they were inedible, the roast potatoes not crispy at all and were just yellow and greasy. I was offered vegetarian gravy which turned out to be vegetable stock. When we complained I was told that another meal could be provided but it would take another 45 minutes to arrive. Needless to say we left. The owner was there and aware but let the staff deal with us rather than doing it herself. Not acceptable.

Didn’t eat on this occasion but super friendly staff and lovely clean inviting pub friendly staff.

As we just entered the restaurant, we have been welcomed with a "Sunday roasts are finished". How about good evening, would you like a drink, and the mandatory welcome phrases? Ordered drink, and 3 fish n chips. Place fairly empty. 45 minutes in, nobody bothered to check on us, I call the what I supposed it was the manager, and ask how long it would have been. Answer, ah yes, your table is next one, but let me check with the kitchen. She never came back to confirm, but next table we were not. Other diners were served. We gave another 10 min, after which we decided that 1 hour for 3 fish and chips isn't clearly acceptable, not with an almost empty restaurant. Went to the till, and cancelled the order and asked to bill for the drinks. I've pointed out to the "supposed" manager, that you need to let diners know if the wait is over an hour, and, more important, keep them informed on whats going on. This is COMMON SENSE, which you shall posses in general, more over if you work in this industry. A pathetic apology was then pronounced by the "supposed" manager, followed by :"it's £9 for your drinks" Shocking.

Why isn’t there a guide to show you gems like this.I’ve often wondered whilst eating a KFC for £18 served by a school drop out with the customer skills of a screw in belmarsh.There must be places just of the motorway better than this.£1.80 a litre for fuel and a pack of maltesers for the price of a return flight to Perth.Nasty little contra flow system took me off the beaten and found this little beauty.Greeted with the welcome of a war hero was served promptly and checked on to see if everything was OK.If it’s this easy why don’t more establishments get it rite. Had homemade steak pie peas and mash. Absolutely delicious washed down with a bottle of coke and back on my way within 20 minutes.So to recap.Great service,lovely hosts(wished me safe journey on my exit)and tasty homed food for less money than a portion of garbage at a rip off service station.The steak pie had more meat in it than the Pamplona bull run and the mash was like your nan use to serve up. Jolly well done.

Starter was chillie & lemon prawn with salad. The plate was full of grease. Very off putting. Batter was nice though. Mains: steak pie with chips & mushy peas. Steak wasn't tough but it was dry & tasteless, chips home cooked but I have never experienced anything like them. Who ever cut them must have been blindfolded. My son had the chicken dish. It looked like slop on a plate. My son said it tasted ok but some of the chicken was burnt & dry. The toilets & the place in general was disgusting, looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. If I had seen this before I would not have eaten here. Not a place I will be returning to nor recommending to anyone. AVOID

Went for lunch with 3 old friends, one of whome has an alium allergy. Food was lovely and all staff extremely friendly and helpful. Lovely atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Friendly atmosphere,great food, warm welcome highly recommend

Turned up on a Saturday lunchtime without a booking. The place wasn’t even half full and had plenty of free tables. Asked for a table for 4 adults and 3 children. Was immediately made to feel like we weren’t wanted being told we would have to wait over an hour for food as our party was “too big”. When we agreed the waitress then went off to check with the chef if they were willing to cook for 7 people. She came back to rudely tell us they weren’t willing to serve us. A restaurant with plenty of empty tables turning down customers is bizarre. If we were a 4 and 3 group we would have been served just fine. Very rude and bizarre I certainly won’t be going back.

Just had Garlic Creamy mushroom with toasted ciabatta and it was absolutely beautiful 10/10

Best creamy mushrooms ever. Will be coming back. Good atmosphere, good music and comfie sofas to end hump day on.

I stumbled across this pub en route back home, very pleased that I drove past McDonald’s to come here. I’m not comparing this pub to McDonald’s in anyway (this was proper filling food). The lady behind the bar was very welcoming and attentive, a credit to the establishment! Small menu shows freshly made food, my thinking was correct. The taste and portion size was just perfect, if ever you have the chance to go to this pub don’t miss the opportunity. If ever you want to broaden your horizons into Lincolnshire, I’ll be your first customer!

Happy to visit as newly re. opened, greeted by friendly staff and showed us to our table. tonight was fish night so fish chips and mushy peas/tartar sauce ordered, hubby had Thai fish cakes. Food. came in good. time and ordered alongside drinks from table or bar. Haddock was lovely so fresh and not dry, staff asked. us many times If all good and it was. `Food prices. very reasonable and. perfect size. . was nice to have music playing at not too loud. so we could talk, Nice atmosphere, Well enjoyed and will happily return.

Fantastic food, excellent service and friendly staff - made for an excellent evening out for dinner

Called in for Sunday lunch whilst passing - we weren't disappointed! The meat was good, veg cooked to perfection, and the 2 potatoes and Yorkshire pud spot on. The nicest Sunday lunch we've had outside home. Would highly recommend - good price too!

Fabulous meal even though there were a few issues that the staff had to deal with, which were out of their control handled extremely well and we had an enjoyable few drunks and meal well done

Second visit since it reopened and will not be last. Superb food and really can't wait until they are serving a full menu! Great selection of drinks and a lovely atmosphere 👌

Second visit since the pub reopened. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly helpful staff. We had the snack menu, which was delicious, and we can't wait to try the full menu. Already planning another visit next week 😀

Spur of the moment, as we drove past, we thought we would pop in for some pub lunch. Inside was spacious, clean, and plenty of spaces to sit at. Despite the kitchen being refurbished and the venue having a limited menu, the food choice was decent. We went for the meat feast pizza and chicken strips with Mayo dip. (See pictures attached) The service was quick, and the food was great. Pizza wasn't greasy. Chicken strips were cooked just right. The price was reasonable. The only thing I could mark it down for is the atmosphere, but with it being quiet here if you like quiet, then here would be perfect for you. Would recommend visiting for a quick bite to eat if you were ever passing by.

Was excited to go sample the food after reopening. After being told the kitchen wasn’t fully open but some light meals could be offered we stayed . We shouldn’t have bothered 😳 it just all seemed like nobody knew what they was suppose to be...

Wow! Just been took over and the new landlady and her team are off to a great start! Staff are super efficient and friendly too. The place is wonderful and so welcoming. Cosy corner, comfy settees and plenty of tables to dine at. A great experienced chef in the kitchen bringing out some great food with more to come when the kitchen opens fully very soon! Super dog friendly but areas to sit without dogs too. Loads planned by the sounds of it too from theme nights, food tasting, music etc. Great range of beers and wines to suit all tastes, cannot believe what has been done in just 1 week! Looks like we have found our new venue!

Finally reopened, the new landlady and her husband are very welcoming. I'll be back for a meal in a few weeks

Amazing little dog friendly place. Only time i have been glad to break down. Will have to visit again. Calamari rings couldn't wait for pic.

We had dinner here with our dog and ordered the doggo dinner for her. She loved it! I wanted something vegan but what was in the menu was gone, so the chef made me a vegan curry instead. We will be back :) Note: Google is marking it was temporarily closed, but it was open when I checked quite recently, so not sure if that is accurate.

Food was nice and the service was too thank you will be back

Excellent food brilliant portions good value for money pleasant atmosphere attentive staff

Amazing food. Good size meals. Staff are friendly and smiley. Not a bad word to say. Come away in a food coma.

Has gone down hill since last time I visited, when we entered at 1pm on Friday only two other tables taken, food not good, chicken burger turned out to be a dry chicken breast in a bun with some raw onion, chips ok, for £14 expected much better, won't be recommending and won't be going again

Wow we need more of these pubs. Oh my life this is the pub of dreams. The food is immense. The steak pie was delicious and the chips were like been at my nanas, tripled cooked chips are the thing!! Keep it like this and you've a brite future!!

Visited recently because we had our dog with us. They are dog friendly so you can sit inside and have a meal. They serve a doggy dinner which was a big bowl of mash and meat with veggies for ruben, he loved it. We had starters and mains and couldn't fault it! Ir was the best meal we have had in a while! Taste is so lovely and all freshly prepared! Not the usual you get these days. It was on the pricey side but worth it as a one off ever now and again. We will deffiantly be returning and so glad we visited as it always looks shut. Ring in advance and check for availability. Hats of the the staff and chef they were very lovely and clearly take pride in what they do.

The group that I came with were all highly delighted with their meals, I only had a starter as a main meal as was not very hungry, but what I had was superb.

I highly recommend this place. The staff are attentive, the food is gorgeous and dog friendly to boot. Great place!

Was fully booked for dinner so only had a drink Cracking pint and a lovely place will book and return

Great food and service! Went with the family and there was something for everyone! The food was delicious and the service was very good! Highly recommend to anyone passing by in the area!

Friendly, professional, and helpful staff. The meal was second to none. Freshly cooked to perfection, and the place was extremely spotless, and Dog friendly. My only tiny point I should say, are the seats are heavy and deep, making them difficult for certain people to move.

Cosy little pub / restaurant, dogs welcome and Sunday lunch is absolutely fantastic.

Called in as a last minute option, as the kid was hungry. Did call and book a table just in case. Which is a good job as the first thing we were asked is "have you booked?" not sure why as there weren't anymore than...

Called in as a last minute option, as the kid was hungry. Did call and book a table just in case. Which is a good job as the first thing we were asked is "have you booked?" not sure why as there weren't anymore than 6 or 7 tables the entire time we were there. The food was okay, kind of what you'd expect from a pub nothing special. We had: Garlic pizza bread to nibble, asked for no cheese or tomato as the kid isn't a fan.... We must of somehow asked for extra extra garlic as what we got was a small (7" max) circle of overcooked dough with so much garlic I never have to fear vampires again. Pork Belly, to which the wife said was nice but the red cabbage with cinnamon was more cinnamon with red cabbage and the mash potato needs to be cut with a knife. The sauce was delicious apparently though. Steak pie, as you'd expect from a low end pub meal, nothing spectacular. The star of the show SHOULD have been the triple cooked chips....... Skin on chips would describe them best. For me, a triple cooked chip is light and fluffy with a crisp outer, not a soggy skin on chip. Kind had buttermilk chicken breast and chips (which were the same as my triple cooked chips so.....).... To describe the chicken more accurately go and Google bird's-eye chicken fingers. Desserts were okay. Sticky toffee with custard. Orange brownie with ice cream, kids brownie and ice cream (same as the orange brownie). Overall super disappointed with the food, over £70 for low end pub food in my opinion. I would have let the waitress know this IF they could have been bothered with a check back to see how we were getting on. To be honest l, any level of service would have been appreciated, no check back, took an age to order (did get an apology at the start for that) ages to clear after each course and took the Micheal trying to order puddings, to the point I got sick of them wiling tables around us, and asked to order to which I recieved "yep, bear with me". Sorry I've already waiting 10 minutes to order and now you want me to wait until its convenient for you? Poor. We left a tip, purely because the kid made a mess and was running around like a little...... But then again when he's sat waiting for an age for stuff to come and be cleared who can blame him? Overall, really really poor and not what it used to be.

Fantastic food, really well presented and reasonably priced.

Junction 32 Service was at its best due to the time we had to wait. The queues are bad enough, plus waiting for food after ordering was quite await, 15mins from joining queue before we enjoyed our coffee and snacks. The staff6 definitely need more space as they are on top of one another behind the counter no room. The staff are forgiven not their fault. The seating area is nicely spaced so your not on top of other people's conversations

Lovely sunday dinner beef and yorkshire puddings

Brilliant.. Love it here. Sampled the Christmas menu.. So nice... The staff are friendly and attentive.. Wouldn't go anywhere else 🤓
