Cons:

• "Our starter was poor and our chicken was dry and chewy."
• "Scallops were so overcooked they were almost rock solid."
• "The Meringue was really hard and difficult to eat, there was no sauce, hardly any fruit and just a tonne of cream on the top."
• "The veg was dry and the roast potatoes were burnt."
• "The fish was very tough and to me did not seem like Cod as described on the menu."
• "The pastry on the pie we ordered was under-cooked, raw on one edge. The vegetables were dry from being over microwaved."

Service

Pros:

• "Recently refurbished, the Fox was busy, but perhaps a little too cosy in the side room we were sat in. That said, the staff were brilliant, friendly & patient (there were 3 kids in our group) and the food tasted great."
• "I would like to commend Lucas, one of the members of staff. He provided phenomenal service by presenting himself in a very courteous manner and solved my limited queries that have appeared."
• "We were looked after by matt who we were very impressed by, he was not at all intrusive and was extremely friendly with an excellent easy going manner."
• "Servers were absolutely lovely and couldn't be more accommodating."
• "Staff very friendly and go out of their way to make your meal as good as it can be!"
• "Service from Mia was friendly and timely."
• "Service was really good, very polite staff, no longer then a 15/20min wait for food and the food was amazing."

Cons:

• "The food ordered came in a timely manner but wasn’t too warm."
• "Only down side was that our table for 6 was tucked right out of the way with no other diners around us. I think we were forgotten from time to time."
• "Very poor service, food was incorrect bacon on fish meal (we don't eat meat, only fish), soggy fish and chips, tiny spoon of mushy peas, uncooked sea bass, people clearing their own tables as staff didn't."
• "We then waited around 50 minutes for our starter to come out."
• "Good food but service was quite slow this time. Had to ask for water for the table several times and the same to get the bill."
• "We were stood at the end of the bar for 5 minutes whilst numerous staff walked by without addressing us for our reservation."
• "Very disappointed. For the second time in 3 weeks, we have been given a partial refund at the fox due to poor quality food."

Atmosphere & Location

Pros:

• "Location in centre with plenty parking."
• "The restaurant is spacious with many seating areas."
• "It's a Beautiful looking and Atmospheric Country side Venue."
• "Nice place, nice atmosphere."
• "The atmosphere was cosy."
• "Really charming pub. Quite large but cosy at the same time."
• "The atmosphere and ambience was lovely and welcoming, would 100% come back again time and time again."

Cons:

• "The dining room that we were in was a bit cold."
• "Can't recommend avoiding this place enough, management was nothing sort of absurd."
• "The lack of atmosphere and no feeling of special occasion left us deciding to leave early and celebrate the turn of the year at home."
• "What happened? I’ve been visiting this pub for years... I cannot believe how bad this place has become."
• "However, the experience was soured when I received a parking ticket a few days later for parking in their car park that evening."
• "The only downside this time was the lack of good-quality real ale."
• "What a disappointment. This place looks gorgeous from the outside, but is not even half as good on the inside."

Value

Pros:

• "Prices seemed a little above average but I guess that's just inflation and the times we find ourselves in."
• "The price is reasonable too so no complaints."
• "The food was extremely good and very good value."
• "Food lovely n tasty. Been to others in same chain and all good."
• "Apologies, I should have clarified my review - the drinks and selection are good, albeit pricey, but given the location and ambience provided which is great, this is acceptable."
• "Not cheap but definitely Upmarket standards."
• "The best value pudding is the taster platter as you get loads."

Cons:

• "Extremely limited vegan options for the brunch... 9.25 for 1 piece of toast with avocado and hummus… ridiculous."
• "The concept of this pub is a good one. Unfortunately, it is overpriced for both and for the quality of food."
• "Food good, but not excellent. Overpriced for quality."
• "Very over-priced for what we got."
• "Poor quality pub food at expensive prices."
• "Never great when you pay £70 for a meal you could have cooked far better yourself."
• "A high price paid for what I expected to be a really good New Years Eve celebration."
