Unplanned stop for lunch. Very friendly staff and the food was of a very high standard. My husband had the special and it was a good sized portion. I had a starter but added a salad to make it a main course. The cheesy mushroom starter is to die for.

Visited here by accident as I was passing and decided to try. The venue was busy as it was a Sunday and lots of of roasts going on . The clientele look as though they are all locals and think well of the venue. Prices are reasonable and the food is good quality, service was a bit hit and miss but assume this was because it was a busy time. The toilets are modern clean and very good. A garden out the back was busy with diners also. Staff are friendly, the atmosphere was of a genuine local pub with regulars . The Decor is dated but traditional pub furniture

Wonderful steak and sausage pie at the Fox & goose!I visited on a particularly cold Monday night in May. I asked the locals and landlord for a recommendation and unanimously the pie was recommended. It didn’t disappoint; real shortcrust pastry and a well filled portion with some excellent vegetables (very much enjoyed the spiced red cabbage) washed down with some very nicely kept real ale. Nice atmosphere and a very friendly welcome.

We came across the Fox and Goose looking for a walk to do in the area. It was the day after the end of the second lockdown and they had got a roaring fire going, the place was warm and welcoming. We had a winter ploughman’s with a mug and delicious and innovative beetroot and apple soup and bread and cheese with pickle. Two lovely glasses of Pinot Grigio to go with it. Excellent service, friendly people and good food. Lovely walk which is actually on their website along the chalk combe of Combe Down. Pub seemed very Covid safe with good distances between tables.

We visited the fox and goose whilst on Holiday in the area recently. We visited on a Monday night and were pleased to be able to get a table as everywhere seems to be closed on a Monday in the area? Upon arrival we were greeted at the front door and asked to fill in our contact details for the purpose of Covid track and trace before being shown to our table. Our table was spotlessly clean and correctly spaced from the others. We ordered our drinks and were given our menu's. We ordered the fishcakes of the day which were cod, bacon and brie and rump steak. I normally only choose fillet but really fancied steak so decided to take a chance and was not disappointed. The steak was cooked exactly as requested, was tender and full of flavour. The fish cakes were also nice. For desserts we chose chocolate fudge cake which was lovely and light and lemon tart which was deliciously sharp. The service was polite, friendly and efficient throughout and the Covid measures in place were some of the best that we came across during our holiday in the area. We would return and would not hesitate to recommend.

Stopped at this pleasant, roomy inn on our way down to Dorset. There’s a big car park. The pub Is well set up for the ‘time of Covid’, very dog friendly and the staff are friendly, cheerful and helpful. The sandwiches were fresh and tasty and this was an altogether pleasant lunchtime. Just shows that with mutual respect for the rules, something very close to ‘normal’ life can still be enjoyed.

Three of us were very happy with our meals, lasagne and 2 pies. The scampi was not enjoyed so much, the diner just said he was disappointed, sorry haven’t any more detail.

My wife and I had driven from Weymouth when a “comfort stop” was requested shortly after leaving Blandford. “Don’t worry, I’ll stop at the next pub or petrol station”. 20 miles further on and absolutely nothing. Eventually dropped down into Coombe Bisset and spotted the “Fox and Goose”. Real serendipity. A friendly welcome from landlord Keith - so decided to have lunch in their lovely garden. My wife had whitebait with a lovely mixed salad. I had the curry of the day (Pathia chicken) which came with a popadum and mango chutney - both first class. Service was excellent and meal excellent value. I only wish the Fox and Goose was closer to where we live.They have sensible covid-19 controls and the toilets are first class... Thanks again to Keith and the team

We happened to drive by the Fox & Goose after leaving Salisbury and it looked very appealing from the outside. The inside was a warm, cosy and quiet pub with ample seating and a really nice atmosphere. Our lovely waitress Amelia showed to us a table and then our orders. She was very helpful with the menu and very warm and friendly. They had a lot of great selections, and we chose the curry and lasagna and were very pleased. It was nice to be able to order dinner at our table and have it served a short time later. The owner came over to greet us and made us feel very welcome.

Service is fantastic, the roast turkey dinner was excellent and once again my sister went for a pie. This was also amazing. The place was rocking with great people and the staff were amazing.

We arrived here earlier than we anticipated. But where quite happy to have a welcome cup of coffee, in front of a roaring fire, very friendly landlord, we felt very comfortable chatting to him. The kitchen actually opened earlier than midday, the waiter was very polite, our drinks and meal arrived, and we were not dissapointed. Good home cooked food, reasonably priced. Very attentive staff. This is not the first time we have been here, but it remains consistently good, so many country pubs fall away from serving good homely food, and seem to think we all want boutique type pubs, with 6 chips and a bean sprout on our plate. Well. Most of us don't. Thank you Fox and Goose.

We had a table booked for 2pm and when we arrived, the table wasn't ready, so we sat around until the tables were vacated 30 mins later. The thing about 2pm is that we were already hungry, so it was a bit frustrating to wait for so long. Once seated, it was 15 mins until we placed our order and the food arrived within 10 minutes which sometimes sets off alarm bells. My stuffed peppers were OK - stuffed with broccoli and kidney beans in a spicy sauce. It was served with a mound of iceberg lettuce and raw red onion with a few matchsticks of peppers on top.

Called prior to visit to book a table for Saturday lunchtime. Four + one small dog called in for a pint, then took off on one of the published walks (3.7 m) from the pub. Nice walk; across the river, through a nature reserve, and over the downs. Then back to the Fox & Goose for an excellent lunch. As we had a dog with us, we could have sat outside in a safely enclosed garden, but chose the comfortable dog-friendly bar area. (There is a separate dining area for those without dogs). Good menu; several specials; served with good selection of vegetables. Excellent friendly service and reasonably priced. Nothing was too much trouble.

Was slightly disappointed. The reviews are excellent and we've been meaning to come for ages. Loved the pub, garden, service, etc. Menu good but only one Sunday roast (we were eating late afternoon). I often find pubs on a Sunday can be less good than usual, maybe different kitchen arrangements because they're busy? I don't know. Anyway my son had ham egg and chips, I had lasagne, husband had roast. It all came within 10mins which isn't that reassuring. My lasagne was a very good homemade one but rather bland in taste. Egg and chips are always just that. Roast potatoes were pretty rubbish. All very good prices and my complaints are minor niggles. I will definitely try them again another time though as I rarely write a place off on first try.

Was drawn to this pub due to a rather amusing review on trip advisor. Greeted by a lovely lady with blue hair who gave us menus and told us to sit where ever we would like, served by a young lad - very amenable. Popped in to avoid the afternoon rush hour. Pate and fried brie starters. The mains were exceptional, steak and chips cooked to perfection, fish and chips, onion rings and mushroom sides. Salad was a little dry and the coffee wasn't all that. Less lipstick on the gin and tonic glass and it would have been 5 stars, no entertaining discomfort stories to share. Good pub grub, would go again

Lovely staff, good grub and a good range of well kept beers. Sat in the garden on a lovely evening and had a relaxing family meal, kids played in the play area and loved it. Well worth a visit. Very switched on to allergies and food intolerance if that is of concern to you, speak to the staff they are very helpful. With regard to price I find it very reasonable, I have listed it as mid-range but what you consider as mid range is very subjective. I would call it very good value for money.

We stopped here on our way to Weymouth. The sun was shining and we all enjoyed sitting outside. The children were able to play on the obstacle course. But the very best bit was the food! I’m coeliac and usually find it difficult to just stop in somewhere, but they had a menu with all the gluten/dairy free items labelled. They were also able to advise which specials were suitable. I had the beef stifado off the specials which was delicious. (I’m currently googling recipes to recreate it at home!) My husband had a jacket potato which was generously topped with prawns and a large side salad. Our children (aged 3 and 5) shared the smaller portion of lasagna, salad and garlic bread. They also had a few chips too. All excellent! Staff were friendly and attentive. We are now wondering if we can plan in a stop on our way home too!

We travel down from Northampton to meet friends travelling up from Weymouth for lunch from time to time. Always rely on a standard menu but with Daily Specials that vary. Good food, served quickly and well presented. Reasonable prices too. All staff are welcoming not only to 'humans' but the doggy kind too - with little bone doggy biscuits as a 'treat'. Four of us had different meals this week: chicken curry, scampi and chips, thai fishcake and toasted cheese & onion sandwich. We all chose the 'smaller' meal as we know this is a good size for us with the smaller appetities!!

Tropezó con este lugar después de viajar desde Londres hacia la costa. La comida fue servida rápidamente, excelentes precios y sabor fresco. El personal fue muy amable y no pudo hacer más por ti. Precioso jardín en la parte de atrás y aunque era festivo y muy soleado, el jardín no estaba lleno y el servicio era bueno. ¡Habrá que volver por esta ruta solo para visitar!

Durante una reciente estancia en Salisbury, decidimos volver a visitar este establecimiento, ya que sabíamos que la comida y la bebida eran de alta calidad. Esta vez nos dimos cuenta de que no solo el personal era tan amable, acogedor y cortés como antes, sino que la calidad de la comida era extraordinaria y que el personal era más apasionado en ofrecer una experiencia de primera clase para cada uno de los clientes del establecimiento. La comida aquí es de bajo PRECIO por la calidad que significa que, como cliente, siempre tendrá un ganador aquí.

Attentive staff and present landlord. Served 3 times at table and able to order more drinks when young lad came to offer. Breath of fresh air for the weary traveller, and nice to see such kindness bestowed on 2 people just passing by.

Auf der Rückreise zu unserm Cottage nach einem langen Ausflugstag freuten wir uns eigentlich auf ein leckeres Pub-Essen und wählten das Fox and Goose. Leider wurden wir hier enttäuscht. Nicht nur, dass das Essen hier einem englischen Pub nicht würdig ist, leider war auch der Service unfreundlich und unaufmerksam, obwohl es so gut wie unbesucht war. Es wurde lieber mit einigen an der Bar sitzenden Herren gelacht und geflirtet und mitten im Schankraum laut lachend ausprobiert, welche der Kellnerinnen das Bein höher werfen kann. Für den Rest unseres Urlaubs suchten wir uns ein Pub mit ein wenig mehr Stil!

Our hosts squeezed 7 of us in for lunch even though they were fully booked...this was much appreciated. There was a wide choice of food on the menu, something to suit everyone. The food was delicious, the service excellent, clean and comfortable surroundings, would definitely recommend.

Recently took my elderly mother (93 and in a wheelchair) to your establishment for a meal at lunch time as she adores your pub, the doors were closed due to it being an exceptionally windy day, as soon as the young lady behind the bar saw me struggling to manoeuvre my mother through the first door she came and very kindly held the second door open for us and then proceeded to direct us to the table my mother wanted to sit at, moving chairs to make are way a whole lot easier.

Won’t be back - coffee ok but woeful miserable staff. A smile, a bit of engagement, even eye contact makes a difference - you want to feel welcome rather than an intruder. Surely when money is tight places realise they might have to go that bit extra to encourage people to go back.

Website showed great promise. Kerbside appeal good, car parking good, service very good ( very helpful and friendly). Strange layout inside as its old building, dining room has no bar. Garden not used to its full potential, only very old tired play equipment for children. Food reasonable, 2 out of 3 meals okay. Third meal of chicken disappointing, either poor quality meat or overcooked or possibly both !!!!! Empty on a nice sunny lunchtime !!! Sorry but would not rush back.
