Great pool table and chilled in classic pub

The Fox and Hounds is wonderful. Why? Well, it has a pool table, a dart board, a pub dog, and even on a Friday night, you can feel safe and welcome there. It's frankly like walking into the idealised version of the perfect pub from 50 years ago. I just don't wish to recommend it too highly because I also like how quiet it gets sometimes. I wouldn't like to attract too many extra punters. 😁

Great afternoon into evening on Saturday. Met some lovely people, Gary (landlord) was friendly and played lots of pool . Dog friendly too.

My favourite pub. Used to go there a lot while I lived in Kingston and Gary the landlord treats everyone like family. Went back years later and picked up right where we left off.

A nice enough local pub, but £8.60 for a pint and a half of Bitter, that's expensive even for Surbiton.

A nice pub alongside the road by the river in Surbiton. They have a small selection of good beers on tap to choose from. They also have Indian street food on Friday evenings (1800-2100), but it had all gone by 2030 last time so get there early. Am told on good authority the food is great and the prices looked very fair too. Inside there’s darts and pool too, so well worth a visit if nearby. The outside space is pleasant too and staff are quite friendly.

A highly regarded locals local pub in the Surbiton community. "A Warm Welcome" stated on the sign, which rings true the moment you walk through the door. Pool table (bring your change!), dart board, 80's classics on the soundsystem and an IT Box which I don't think I've seen since I left Uni. When I came here previously I sat with my pint of Moretti and heard two blokes describe for well over 20 minutes about how good the run of the table was, stroking it after every shot. Make of that what you will, but we played on it, and it felt pretty pretty, pretty good. Beers on tap are "normal pub" gear. Amstel pours well, Moretti has its own pump so you know it's going to be good, always one real ale on and there's even Brixton on tap (who are now 100% Heineken owned). Sport is shown on TV last I checked, the front garden is a massive sun trap by the river (after the road), no bookings needed, darts league on Thursdays, it's mentioned on WhatPub to be "the most haunted pub in Surbiton", there's psychic events too that look to almost always sell out, coffee mornings and live music. Oh and a lovely log fire to cosy up to. History-wise there's not a lot in the books I've got. It's a traditional coaching house pub that dates back to 1787, and then demolished and moved slightly in 1850. Ownership of the pub now is unclear, possibly Star Pubs(?), but the landlord is a nice fella who's always up for a bit of a chat. It's dog friendly, predominantly an adults pub but kids are welcome, the locals are talkative and good fun, the only pub with a pool table in Surbiton, and you could easily spend a whole afternoon here. Unfortunately pubs like this seem to be a bit of a dying breed, but this one is still here, and I plan to come back. Loved it.

Gary is an extremely welcoming Barman and the beer may be a little pricey but it's by the river and not as expensive as some other closer locations. The really big draw for a lot of people is the dog friendliness of the pub, outside seating and general atmosphere.

In all fairness I just popped in whilst passing and only stayed for a pint. The service was excellent but the pub was not very busy at the time. The proprieter seemed very friendly and down to earth which, for me, made the environment more inviting.

A very spacious pub on the main Portsmouth Road between Surbiton and Kingston that overlooks the river Thames with beautiful sunsets. The landlord was very friendly and helpful particularly as we were such a large group (18), recommending local places for us to eat or suggesting we could order takeaway and eat it there. The beer served was also of a good standard and not badly priced for the area. Thoroughly recommend giving the place a visit.

Eating is believing. Whatever food is ordered it is banging. Sometimes I just get cravings for a poor boys. Pro tip: order the seafood platter it's 10/10 and can feed a group of four, or two fat people. Definitely good value for money. Pro tip 2: alcohol here will turn a £40 bill here to a £70 bill. Be careful. Service is usually quick. AVOID Saturday and Sunday - the word has spread like butter with how good the food is. The queues are HUGE, you'll be waiting a while just to get a seat. The atmosphere is decent, if pretty standard and nothing too special. Do the platter. You won't be disappointed.

We thought the restaurant was empty due to it being Monday which was fine. Very dark place, plastic covers on the chairs. Friendly enough. ordered white wine which they did not have but offered us another for over £20. Awful Dino cheap wine tasting like water. Lady brought us main course before the starters then all came at once. which I had never experienced that. We were all confused!! Bill came as a shock. Pity. Last visit for us.

Very quiet at Friday lunchtime, we were the only ones until a loud vegan arrived, and unfortunately continued to yell about her veganism religion throughout the remainder of our meal. We had our usual at Persian restaurants: koobideh (minced lamb grilled on skewers) with their moreish garlic naan and the chicken (with bones) and rice. Our first visit but not our last.

SOOOO AMAZING!! If you want real authentic Indian food please order from here! I’m an Indian from gujraat I’ve been brought up on Indian food and this is the closest takeout I’ve had that matches my mums cooking! I cannot commend this place enough! I had the Aloo parata and bher and vada pau. Everything was impeccable and perfect. I will 1000% be ordering from this place again. Sadly my mum isn’t with me so I just wanna thank you guys for making this amazing tasty food! I felt satisfied as I’ve been craving home cooked food for so long now.Sadly I don’t have any pics cause I was too absorbed in the food. RASOI you guys are amazing! HATS OFF TO THIS AMAZING CHEF! Thank you so much!!!! Perfect perfect food! Ish
