Things have sadly changed here for the worse since the new owner took over. I gave it a try a few weeks ago having been a regular at this restaurant. Unfortunately my meal wasn’t great, but put it down to one of those days and gave it another go today. Firstly the beer was off and that was changed and charged for too. The other issue was my mushroom stroganoff dish which was full of incredibly chewy, rough mushrooms, but worse they hadn’t been cleaned properly and consequently gritty. My business partner had the same, we both left more than half our meal, but nothing was said either by the waiter or the chef. Yes, I should have said something, but frankly I’d already decided I wasn’t coming...
We made a reservation for my Dad's birthday, so there were four adults and a two-year-old in our party. The staff were all friendly, and the menu has not changed much since the new owners took over, which is appreciated by many of the regular customers. The restaurant is well-known for its delicious cheese souffle, which can be ordered as a starter or a main course. The venison dish was exceptional, and I personally enjoyed the fish pie. The desserts were all great. However, I do feel that the children's menu is a bit pricey for a two-year-old. It would be nice if the ice cream scoop was complimentary or if there were options for smaller portions, as the Mac and cheese was £8 for the little...
Party of 7 arrived on time, for Sunday lunch. We were pointed to our table. 10 min wait for menus, then 1 hr wait for mains. “I have checked and it was 57 mins so you have two free drinks” was the response to our comment on the delay. “We had a table of 8 that we had to serve before you, that’s the reason for the ‘slight’ delay.” Surely this was accounted for when taking bookings? Possibly it was the new manager we were talking to but whoever it was her attitude needs improving. Why not explain the delay when we arrived to give us the opportunity to sit in the sunny garden with drinks/nibbles while we waited? Unfortunately the lukewarm meals were not worth the long wait.
Ordered 4 meals as a group of friends…Sea bass, Fish pie, Pork Ribs, and Soufflé as a main with chips. Sea bass was burnt and sent back, Fish pie was overly heated for service but ok, Pork Ribs were served membrane on which made them impossible to eat as the meat was stuck to membrane and not possible to separate, while the Soufflé was ok. The Sea bass was exchanged for a burger which was not good and only part eaten. No replacement was requested for the ribs as it had put the diner off eating here. Have used this establishment over the past 30 years or so, but sadly will not be eating here again. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
I would highly recommend this pub/restaurant. We nipped off of M3 on way home from the eurotunnel, to enjoy a break and four fantastic meals Sunday roast beef, beef and ale pie and burgers. Great service and the meals were huge, delicious and fab service too. Even the dog was given a bowl of water without having to ask! The only down side was that we were all too full to enjoy any of the desserts from the menu that sounded amazing!! Only 4 mins drive from M3 with loads of parking.
We stopped at this restaurant on the way to a party and both decided to order the sea bass. The dish arrived quickly and looked fantastic. The portions were generous, and even though I didn't think I could finish it all, the meal was so delicious that I ended up eating my husband's potatoes as well. It was too good to leave any bit uneaten! This was probably the tastiest meal I've ever had at a pub, and it even surpassed many restaurants.
We hosted my daughter's wake at The Fox and Vicky and her staff were extremely accommodating. Everything was executed flawlessly, the food was delicious and there was an abundance of tea, coffee, and fruit juices. The cozy atmosphere with a log fire was a comforting touch following my daughter's funeral. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Vicky, for making a difficult day a little easier to bear.
We have been enjoying meals at The Fox for many years. You could guarantee the same high standard every time. We were disappointed that some items weren't available on the Menu. Just felt the Restaurant lacked atmosphere and needs decorating. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
We enjoyed an excellent lunch at the Fox. Good service and delicious food. There is also a very nice quiet garden with some play equipment for kids and plenty of parking.
Really lovely meal for my dads 80th. Great food, lovely staff would definitely recommend. The cheese souffle was amazing!
