Food wonderful as usual. Kris was amazing. My mum has dementia and he made her feel so comfortable and was fantastic with her and very patient with our group when things weren’t quite going to plan. Very accommodating. Really appreciated your kindness and patience. Thanks so much. A 90th birthday to remember. 😄

Situated off a busy main road with surrounding shops. Good size car park , remember to enter your car regd when you arrive. Plenty of bar / waiting staff both kept busy . Food and drink both good. Food portion a bit hit and miss . IE 1 portion of chips last visit you could count on your fingers . This week, a fair portion is the same with carvery meat . Value for money, nothing fancy . Worth a visit .

We had a family get together for Christmas last night at the Fox. Everything was absolutely perfect! I'm not usually a fan of a carvery, but we all decided to go for the festive carvery. The food was great, well cooked and very tasty. All of the staff were very attentive and friendly. A special mention of Amy, one of the cooks I believe. She was behind the counter right by our table and was amazing all night long! Would definitely recommend 💯

We had a kids pizza making party here at the end of November 2024 for our 8 year old daughter. What a great party it was! William looked after all the kids so well and they had so much fun making their individual pizzas in all shapes and with personalised toppings. It was great seeing all the kids so engaged and having lots of laughs. Can’t recommend enough. Incredible value!

All of the wait staff were lovely and friendly, However we were seated in a tiny booth (there were 5 of us) which was cramped and not big enough for everyone to sit comfortably. The chef cut the tiniest pieces of meat possible from the carvery and the "slice of beef" was literally just a raggy bit of fat - for the price of the carvery the amount of meat u get is terrible and clearly the chef doesn't think to even cut off a piece which is atleast edible. The selection of veg was minimal and disappointing compared with other carveries. The carrots were clearly just dry frozen carrots with zero taste, the stuffing was baked to death and one of the roasters i'd picked up had a rotten patch in it (see pic). It's as though no care or attention whatsoever is put into the food.

As a regular going for a carvery I had a voucher come through my emails and my wife and I decided to go here Having ordered our drinks and 2 carveries we went to the server and had our food we had noticed that there were no serviettes any where and the carver gave my wife her food And the plate burnt her hand it was that hot and he apologised because the napkins don't arrive until tomorrow and he put a cold plate below the hot one so she didn't burn herself again after sitting down to eat the only thing that was hot was the plate. The food was lukewarm and not very enjoyable when we had finished our meal we moved up to by the bar and after trying my madri beer I could taste a chemical taste to it I asked if it could be changed because I thought it didn't taste right she called the general manager over his name is Chris/Craig Lloyd ( his staff wasn't sure what his name was she thought it was Craig) and he stated that there was nothing wrong with the beer as it has been served all day without complaint I then said it must be the glass and could I have a different beer in a different glass he said no I can have the same drink out of the glass I complained about into another glass at this I did say to him that he should stick it where the sun doesn't shine and left it on the bar I think it will be a long time before we go there again not Stonehouse but definitely not the fox while he is managing it

I went to the fax with my dad to have a carvery, the meal was very disappointing, the roasters were rock hard and could not be eaten even though the chef had bought out fresh ones, the mash was lumpy, the staff looked like they could not be bothered or even cared, no one came to ask how the meal was, as I assume they already knew how bad the food was, we both had a pint of Johnsmiths with are meal and we both felt that it tasted flat. We went on a Saturday and the pub was empty I can only assume that this is due to the poor quality of the food and the unwilling and unhelpful staff. I would recommend that no one goes to this very poor pub, me and my dad will never go there again.

We had a fantastic carvery meal at lunchtime last Tuesday, so decided to bring the rest of our family tonight as a treat. Very different quality of both food and service, so disappointed. Family group of 7, 3 of us had a carvery, all of which were delicious. However, the remainder of our group had fish, lasagna, burger and a kids chicken dippers meal. Mediocre at best, over cooked and dry, so clearly re-heated/microwaved. The meals did not come out together, so those of us who had meals had to start eating so they didn't get cold. The service staff were very poor in comparison to Tuesday's excellent service. Maybe it was because it was an evening service and busier, but standards should remain the same. I'm not sure that I will return, or if I do it would definitely be for a carvery only.

Usually i would give this place top stars but after the service i have had is bloody disgusting I was standing there for 10minutes waiting to be served but they were to busy cleaning down at 8pm the staff just kept looking at me and then a customer comes to the door and they served him straight away.... what a bloody joke.... even the food is tasteless, uncooked, the chips look anemic and curry sauce just tastes like hot water
