Held a family wake at the Foxhound yesterday in the function room. The whole experience was perfect. The buffet was outstanding, the food was fresh and tasty and the staff were very friendly. I would recommend the Foxhound whole heartedly.

This pub is disgusting. I witnessed food being picked up off the floor and served to the customers The dog walks round the kitchen constantly and the child is allowed to walk over the worktops. I’ve never experienced anything like it. It’s so unhygienic.

Went into pub with my granddaughter. No one behind the bar. When the lady did come back she didn’t even acknowledge we were there, carried on with other customers. After being totally ignored we walked out and went to another pub nearby where the service was excellent.

Had my Mum’s 60th party here and all I can say is WOW!! Had the most wonderful day/evening. The lovely staff couldn’t have done anymore for us it was just perfect 👌🏻! The Buffet food was amazing such good quality and offer much more than your standard buffet menu. They even closed most of the outside too us also which was a touch! Thankyou so much guys for making my Mum’s 60th one to remember. Will definitely be a venue I would book again!!

I cannot recommend the Foxhound enough. I decided to have my 50th Birthday Drinks in their Function room, quite last minute. From start to finish nothing was too much trouble for them. All the staff were absolutely amazing, and went over and above to make sure i had a lovely night. The buffet was really nice and plentiful. It is such a lovely friendly pub. Thank you Darcy and everyone especially for all your help in making my 50th birthday one to remember.

We got there about 3.30 and happy to service us. First time in this pub roast dinner choice of beef or pork. My only criticism is my roast potatoes were drowning in gravy. I told the waitress that I would prefer a jug of gravy, she said I'll change it. I said next time we come here for a meal. There will be a next tine because it was lovely and clean the food was good and service.

Popped in for a lunch time nibble. Had some tapas off their menu which consists of small dishes. My wife and I picked deep fried mushrooms, chips, mozzarella sticks and some spicy chicken bites. These were done to perfection. Some pub fried food has oil dripping from it, but these were done perfect. When the bowls were emptied they were dry. Would have been pictures but was hungry so tucked straight in. Next time for sure. If you haven't tried the Foxhound yet give it a go. They also do Sunday lunch but would advise booking. Staff are friendly and helpful. Good job we don't live in the village, if you get my drift......

We stopped in here for a Sunday Roast whilst out for the day celebrating our 4th anniversary. The pub was full but the staff where brilliant most place's especially on a Sunday would turn you away if they where full not the Foxhound! they manged to squeeze us in and did so with smoothness and professionalism, I'd particularly like to give a mention to one of the waitress who went out of her way to ensure my partner got her desired meal when they where running low. In summary, the food was delicious, the price was reasonable and the staff warm, welcoming and professional even the regulars where very pleasant and friendly if we are ever in the area again we would certainly vist again.

Popped down for lunch last week the hosts could not have been kinder or more appreciative of NHS staff, they offer a discount on what was already great value for money food. The food was fresh and delicious there was a little wait but the standard of the food made this pale into insignificance . Everything was prepared to perfection I wish I had time to stay for coffee and desert. I would highly recommend both the venue and people who are now managing this pub

This pub is lost in the 1950s and before. There is red carpet and a pink sink basin in the ladies loos. The rest of the place looks like I’ve not been touched for at least 50 years too. Very pleasant bar staff, and didn’t try the food, but then again it was all a little bit scampi and chips kind of menu, and looking at the rest of the place you kind of judge the food on what you can see around you. Needs some financial investment.

Today I had to go into Orsett so we arranged to meet for lunch at the Foxhound. I had decided I was going to have an all day breakfast weeks ago so I was really looking forward to it, if it didn’t come up to scratch I would have been so disappointed. We first had a drink in the public bar with my hubby’s mates a bunch of old drunks lol which is not much to look but his friends make up for it because they are lovely. The staff are always lovely too and I can understand why Chas likes going up there most days for lunch time drinks. We then went to the main bar for breakfast, the main bar looked a lot nicer than it did last time I was there as it had been done up. The quality of decorating wasn’t amazing but it looked a lot better than before. As for my breakfast it was outstanding, the sausages were the best flavour not cheap, it had fried bread cooked to perfection, 2 slices of bacon, egg, lovely fresh mushrooms and tomato. I should have photographed it I will next time as there will be a next time lol. Highly recommend this pub for their breakfast

From food served on cold plates to fresh cream (sweetened) from a spray can to background music being too loud, this restaurant is trying to be something it isn't.Sunday lunch - choice beef, pork or chicken. The chicken was served as a large lump of a breast which was over-cooked and solid.Waitress very nice, efficient and helpful.Can't justify visiting again though.

We popped in on the off chance that we would be able to find a table as we had heard that the restaurant had been refurbished. We were shown downstairs and were surprised to find that the only other diners were two ladies. It did appear cold and souless, even with a few Christmas decorations. However the menu appeared good and the service good and the waitresses very helpful. It was cold and they put the heating on for us. The parsnip soup was delicious but the shepherds pie decidedly average. My husband did enjoy his chicken with noodles stir-fry but it did have a lot of peppers (or chillies) which made him feel unwell afterwards.We will go back to the Foxhound to sample their Sunday lunch, perhaps there will be a few more customers which will improve the ambience.

Had lunch here again and was equally disappointed as I was in May 2018. The bar and restaurant have been refurbished, on a low budget in my opinion. The decor is very cold, not at all cosy. I had a jacket potato with chilli con carne. The potato was ok but the chilli was a little too hot and very dry, it needed to be in a sauce. Used to go there a couple of times a month but will give it a miss in future.
