We love the Fox and Hounds. It's a local, family-friendly and dog friendly pub. It's Ember Inns chain. It has a restaurant part with table service and pub side where you order at the bar. There's a nice, good-sized garden as well and free parking. It's great to pop in just for a drink or to have family/friends gathering. Love it. Thanks.

First time at this Ember inns pub and it's much better than I thought. Large but has cosy tables and quiet. Dogs are welcome in the non restaurant area so you can still have full food service in most of the pub. Food was good(ordered sausage & mash), tasted good but sausages needed to be cooked a bit longer and browned off all round as the half that was not browned off, was quite tough. The crisp onion fries were delicious. Gravy was flavoured well and the mash was smooth. £12.29 for this dish. I did want the chicken & leek pie but this was unavailable as were several other dishes. Cider was good. £5.10 for a pint of Stowford press Ordering was easy with QR code at the table and online payment or you can order at the bar. Staff were friendly and gave service with a smile. As this was a good experience overall, we're thinking about booking our extended family Christmas day dinner here.

Food was speedy, fresh ,hot and delicious. The restaurant was clean and tidy and the tables were clean. We had the chicken and leek pie and sausage and mash. The pie was 10/10, full of filling and lovely pastry. The onion fries with the sausages were a great touch too.

Special and charming hotel with a beautiful estate where you can walk and enjoy. We visited this hotel with a wheelchair. We were able to park directly next to our bedroom, which was great. The (wheelchair accessible) room was also attractive and the beds slept wonderfully. Use of the bathroom (nice shower with grab rails & seat and grab rails at the toilet) is also fine. Breakfast room and restaurant also very wheelchair accessible. What is special and nice is that this hotel has many guests with dogs. The people and dogs are friendly and it doesn't detract from the atmosphere at all. In short, we had very nice days and thank you to the friendly and helpful staff.

The Fox and Hounds in Haywards Heath is a cozy pub with a warm atmosphere and friendly staff. The menu offers a variety of delicious dishes, including hearty pub classics and vegetarian options. The service is efficient and attentive, making it a great spot for a casual meal or a pint with friends.

Was very disappointing. Had been quite a number of years since I was last in here but it has gone a long way downhill. There was only a single ale on tap which I just cannot believe from an English pub, and it really wasn’t a very good summer ale. The food was just OK, I expected significantly more from a big established pub in a good area. We were a party of 5 and all agree we won’t go here again.

Decent pub grub and a nice place to sit out in the sun, when the weather allows. Burgers are nice but could do with not being served on a dry bun. Have had a few meals here now and everything else has always been fine so haven’t marked down on that basis.

Good food, excellent service from the amazing staff who are friendly, restaurant & pub looks nice from the inside and easy to get to by bus. Either take the Route 270 to Rocky Lane then a short walk down the road from the roundabout or take the 271 or 272 Metrobus that directly stops there. Had a peaceful time here and highly recommended. 5 stars and 10 out of 10. 👍👍☺️☺️👌👌

Sunday lunch for 10 people. Superb food. Bone in rib of beef was delicious and vegetables cooked perfectly with crispy roast potatoes. Lovely deserts too, nicely presented. Service was brilliant, very attentive staff, genuine and friendly. Thanks to all for making this family occasion. We all travelled for an hour or so as this place was in ‘in the middle of us all’ . Well worth it and will definitely do it again.

This was a family visit on a Monday evening for a get together meal. There were many items missing from the menu, eg sold out of prawns available to go with the sea bass dish, so I opted for the scampi dish (which was average) but they had sold out of tartare sauce; sold out of potato samosas to go with the chicken tikka masala curry, sold out of the biscoff sundae. Starters of BBQ chicken wings were excellent, two rump steaks were cooked well but lacking in flavour, spicy chicken burger seriously lacked spice. I find it hard to believe that so many items were unavailable on a Monday evening.

Service was poor. Waited at table to order for extended period. Eventually stopped a staff member and asked could we order only to be told have to order at bar. Was not told this. Sunday roast was not a classic roast as expected but a rib (tasty but not the roast I was hoping for). Food delivered quite quickly after ordering but then staff difficulty to attract and did not come near us at all (passing quickly & I was unable to make eye contact t). My guest asked for the fried fish to have no skin. Fish was provided grilled. This was not what my guest wanted and his request was obviously misunderstood (this was also his fault for not explaining properly). He did want to send fish back and request the menu fried fish (just with no skin) but it was simply too difficult to attract the attention of staff. Staff were friendly when we were able to interact with them but this was difficult to achieve (restaurant was not busy and estimate that 50% of tables were not occupied). Friends suggested we do not visit your restaurant as reputation according to them is poor. We had had Sunday lunch at F&H before and was good. However it’s unlikely we would return again.

We booked a table for 7pm on Monday 4th December, but we're informed by phone that the kitchen was closing early for maintenance and asked to arrive earlier. We arrived at 18:15 instead and ordered our food and drinks upon arrival. Everyone enjoyed their food. My only gripe was my sausages and mash didn't fill me up, so I had to eat a few chips from my wife's plate. I don't think my meal was worth £12. Apart from that, it was an enjoyable experience with good service as always.

Highly recommend this place 👌

The veg was lovely and fresh and hot but the vegan burgers were nearly cold - and no one came to ask how the meal was. After finishing our first course, we had such a long wait that we had to go to the bar to order a dessert, and eventually realised the waitress had gone off shift without handing over to anyone. There was no 'sorry for the wait'. It's disappointing because previously we've always had good meals there and the staff have been friendly and helpful. We were relieved there was no music coming through the speakers.

We have chosen this pub to meet as a family on a few occasions. We organised a buffet for about 20 of us and it was fantastic. Great selection of food on the buffet, certainly not your usual beige banquet. The pub always has a good atmosphere and is just a great family pub. Lots of parking and outside space. The pub is wheelchair accessible, definitely mention when booking as some seating is on split level

It was nice to meet up with family here as parking was easy and the table was plenty big enough for 6 of us to sit at without feeling squashed. The starters we shared were cooked very well and was very tasty. The mains though were ok in the whole but the sausages were a mixture of cooked and under cooked. And the steak in the mixed grill was so chewy my jaw started to ache so gave up even though I was looking forward to it. When I said about the steak there was no apology just a well rehearsed or seemed like it reply of, We can't control how chewy the cows are. Well you can actually by taking care of where your meat comes from and keeping a good quality of supply like other places I've been to

You can't really improve on anything here, and we has the perfect experience. The barman, the waiting staff, the food, the relaxed-yet-efficient service and attitudes of the team - were all absolutely perfect. The food was sublime. Short Ribs as part of a Sunday Roast is genius. They've not raised prices of a Sunday roast to extortionate levels, unlike other establishments which charge £20+ for the roast alone. Highly recommended, and we'll be back again very soon.

My meal selection was absolutely fine. However my partner is Vegan and said the options are very limited. She opted for the vegan linguine she said it was a bit bland in taste and was hoping the vegan wellington would be an option as she enjoyed this on a prior visit sometime ago.

2pm on a Saturday, it was freezing, we didn't take our coats off. I like the Embers Inn menu because I'm not a fan of pretentious, vertically-stacked food, and there's plenty of choice at fair prices. I had Hunters Chicken, which was cremated on the bottom but more or less edible otherwise. The tomato was almost perfectly taste-free, but it's November, so... I have eaten here a couple of times before though, and the sausages were delish, as was the carbonara. Think Harvester in a pub. Plenty of parking.
