The Fox & Hounds at Walton

Excellent service. We had the early bird meal - excellent value and quality was very good. Nice touch to have the home made bread and oil on arrival. Will go again.

I have eaten here on several occasions and the food and service has been generally good. That was not the case last Friday when myself and 3 guests had a rather bad experience, Starters were OK but main courses were dreadful with the special of the day - veal liver, being particularly bad - inedible in fact. Service was - let's say - eccentric!

Normally a really good experience and the food was great as normal. Tonight however we felt a bit rushed! Finally we were told our table was needed so we left. They did seem more busy than normal.... Probably because of the Yorkshire Show but it might have been better to tip us the wink as we sat down. A bit embarrassing being asked to leave.

We were served very good food at reasonable prices, friendly and efficient service, all of this in a restaurant/pub with an atmosphere that we like - thoroughly recommend

I had a meal here a week ago which I could not fault - however, on this return visit I was disappointed (not sure if a different chef was on). Tempura prawn starter disappointing as batter was soggy and not crisp, steak main course was decidedly average and rhubarb and ginger crumble - very stodgy (broken ginger biscuits in the crumble) and "vanilla custard" had no sign of any vanilla in it. In hindsight I probably should have said something but always embarrassing when with friends. I will go back though as I am hoping this was a "blip" - normally very good value, service and food. Shame!

Excellent food. After a slightly slow start because they were so busy, service was efficient and friendly - and they were busy because of the Yorkshire Show which lent the place an extra buzz. A really good evening.

Early Bird menu, excellent food, well presented & very good value. The menu has good variety too. It was also encouraging to see this local pub restaurant full so early on a Saturday evening. Hopefully, a good sign that the Fox & Hounds will have continued success.

Good food and service, I recommend a visit. We had the early bird menu which is excellent Value and good quality with plenty of choice

Booked for a reunion of 8 people and they managed to cater for us very well - enough on the menu to choose from for all of us and lovely meal, the staff were very helpful , we will call again - thankyou

The food is excellent and lots of choice even on the early bird menu. Good choice of beers too and the service and friendly staff make the experience all the more enjoyable.

We had an excellent meal at the Fox and Hounds. The quality of the food was very good, the atmosphere friendly and the service good.

We last visited 12 months ago when our experience was not so good, however with knowledge that there had been many changes we went as we do like the ambience of the place. Pleasantly surprised by the attentive staff and price / quality of food,all round much improved.

Friendly ,attentive, organised and experienced staff. Lacked nothing for an enjoyable meal. Made to feel welcome from the word go. Great value for money. We will certainly be back.

Fantastic. Wouldn't normally have three courses but since the starter and main were so delicious I couldn't resist trying the crumble for desert. Only small issue was that the main vegetarian dish (vegetable Wellington) had run out, but they did have an alternative. Will definitely be visiting again. Thanks!

Very disappointed with the food as it has always been very good. Tonight my fish was ok but what were described as chips were in fact wedges which tasted as if they had been reheated. I also ate there for lunch this week and the pork dish was terrible. Dried up and again had been reheated. Sorry but we won't be back

Easy booking system on line, friendly staff, great food. What more needs to be said. Find out for yourself, it's worth it. Best Gasto Pub in the area. Early-bird menu at a tenner is very good value and you get good quality food with plenty to eat.

Good service and value. The choice is also excellent. Highly recommended. Staff very efficient and beer kept well. I will return sooner rather than later

As always a warm welcome & tasty meal, the fig & goats cheese starter wrapped in pancetta was a particular winner with a umber of us

Good meal, nice surroundings, pleasant staff and good value for money. Restaurant pretty quiet the evening probably given the weather has been so wet. We will visit again.

We went for a family Sunday lunch. The food was excellent. In particular we enjoyed the black pudding starter, Roast beef main course and sticky toffee pudding. Drinks service was a little slow but it was busy.

Great lunch with good company, fresh mussels, bangers and mash and a rather naughty chocolate brownie to finish, couldn't eat like this everyday! Worth the trip and will re-visit.

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff. Food was very tasty and the prices comparable to other similar places. Will definitely be going back again in the future.

The food was excellent and in nice surroundings. The staff were helpful and polite. It is worth the trip out and we will definitely be going back at some point.

Nice wee pub, convenient to us travelling North on the A1 to meet with friends for a delightful Sunday lunch. Good home-cooked food at a reasonable cost, friendly staff and great service.

Can't beat Sunday lunch here good choice and good value. Small portions for children. Need to make sure you book though as gets busy for lunch.

We had a lovely meal here last week. The food was high quality and good value for money. The lady that served us was great fun - thanks again Fox & Hound

Great food, great atmosphere, great surroundings and fab staff! Thanks Maggie you always make us welcome and you have exactly the right balance - friendly, professional as well as being competent (and good fun!) I haven't said much about the food... that's not bad either!! Excellent overall. Thank you.

A great evening with delicious food. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff were very helpful and pleasant. Would highly recommend this place to anybody.

Ambience relaxed, warm comfortable. Maggie looked after us well as always. Our steaks were excellent, and the spicy rhubarb crumble a dream dessert. Thank you to Alan, Gareth and Pam for maintaining their usual high standards.

The service was diabolical. We weren't acknowledged on arrival waitied 30 minutes at the table before being served. The owner knocked off the cost of 2 tonics we were in the restaurant one hour 40 minutes to each one course. Spoilt the whole evening. This is the second time recently we have been and the service is far too slow. Won't be returning for a long time sorry to have to post the comments. No idea in customer care

Very good value for a quality Sunday lunch. Lovely rare beef (you have to say if you want it medium or well done). Pork equally as good with lovely crackling and nice chunky apple sauce. Welcome rushed but then efficient and friendly. Will return!

Fantastic meal .... home made bread to start WOW the main meal I chose the rack of lamb done to perfection and to finish home made custard ............... booking now for next week also the staff could not do enough for you " even showed us the early bird menu "

Superb.Great food.Lovely staff.The best pint of Black Sheep I have ever had.There were four in our group and we all want to return very soon.

Good food and good friendly service for a reasonable price. We would recommend to friends and will go back again, possibly for an evening meal to see if standards are just as good during the week.

Went on Bank Holiday Monday for lunch.Had to let the waitress know we were ready to order & had to order our drinks at the bar,we weren't asked.We had our bread before starters arrived but 2 other couples didn't get bread,perhaps that is only offered if you are having a starter? Starters & Mains came out in reasonable time but the couple (with a baby) had to ask where their meal was as an hour had passed.Staff didn't know what came with the "Pie of the day" nor what the crumble was. Empty glasses were removed from table but we weren't offered any more drinks. Little things, that weren't upto the normal standard, maybe it was because Maggie wasn't working? Food good. We are regulars so we were quite disappointed with the service. Howard & Karen Marsden & Phil Rogers

Love the quality of food, which is often overlooked in mass produced Sunday lunch menus, in a splendid convivial yet comfortable surrounding... and it is walking distance :-)

Good service. Good food at a very reasonable price plus the staff catered for one of our party who is gluten free.The dining room was full which is always a good sign!

We had an enjoyable meal at The Fox and Hounds. The food was of a high quality and very reasonably priced. Staff friendly and welcoming.

We ate from the early bird menu which offers two smaller portions for £10. The food was delicious and smaller portions were sufficient, although desserts were available at an extra charge. The restaurant wasn't full but we felt as though the staff were rushing us and they seemed a bit pushy at times.

Always a pleasure to enjoy great food and super service in a rural home style atmosphere. The deserts are always a delight- just remember to leave room for one!

Visited here after reading Trip Advisor reviews en route to returning daughter to Leeds uni . Such friendly ,welcoming hospitality and a superb Sunday lunch. We will be back - a little gem.

Very disappointing after reading previous reviews. Lamb was described as "pink" but arrived grey and just like school dinners, vegetables were as hard as nails, only one and a half roast potatoes each and a thimble full of mashed potatoes, no extra gravy. No hand pulled local beers. The brownie pudding was tiny. No senior member of staff bothered to ask us if we had enjoyed the meal. Perhaps the main chef was not on duty, something was wrong today and they need to look at their standards.

The staff at the Fox and Hounds are genuinely friendly and accommodating. When we asked to move from the table near the door to one closer to the bar, they were very obliging. I like to try different things on the menu and I've enjoyed my meal each time I've gone. Definite recommendation!

Excellent service, good atmosphere, plenty of choice on the menu. Prices were good and portion sizes were fine. Fish pie was delicious, but a little too hot. Nearly took the roof of our mouths! Thanks for a lovely evening.

Our very first visit to the Fox & Hounds after hearing great reviews, arrived 15 minutes before our reservation time, shown straight to our table & had complimentary bread and oil arrived after ordering our drinks. nice touch. Food was excellent hot & the service was brilliant, & you wasn't rushed after you had finished your meal. Only thing that let it down was the poor selection of non alcoholic drinks.

The early bird menu offers fantastic value for money and a great choice of dishes. Fantastic value, as always, and a deliciously tasty filling meal.

We both had the stuffed pork sorry to say it had too much stuffing and little pork,everything else soup good service as always fine food hot

Great evening with friends, we all had the Early Bird 'smaller portions' and were well satisfied with both the quantity and choice of dishes. Good food, great service.

Probably the best "Pub Sunday Lunch" I've had. Food very good, service good, although perhaps tables a little too close together? A minor niggle. Recommended.

Really friendly staff and good quality food at very reasonable prices. Lovely atmosphere with no background music (hurrah!) and a beautiful place to relax and eat in.
