Welcome to the Fox & Hounds

Home-cooked food using local produce


We are a family-owned traditional British pub, well known for our handmade pies and hearty, home-cooked British food. Our kitchen sources food locally and prepares everything fresh — from award-winning Sunday roasts and pub classics to our Chef's Daily Specials and festive seasonal menus.

Join us for a pint of real ale by the fire, a family feast in the dining room, or a long lazy afternoon on the terrace and in our large beer garden.
