We visited the fox and hounds with friends on a Saturday evening after reading the positive reviews on this site, albeit the majority of reviews were for Sunday lunch. The dining area is very small and although some may call it intimate it felt like we were eating in our front room and lacked any atmosphere. We had to wait a long time to order and our starters didnât come for half an hour even though there were only two other tables being served. The soup was tasty and our friendsâ salmon was good. We again had a long wait for our main courses. I had rib eye steak which was average at best. Our friends had the Fried Hake which was very small. At no stage either at our table or when paying our bill at the bar were we asked how our meals were or whether we wanted another drink. Either the bed and breakfast at the fox and hounds is the priority for the management or the couple in charge, neither of whom were smartly dressed, need to improve their customer service.Dear ltj-1964We choose not to reply to any of our reviews (good or bad) as we appreciate that this a platform for diners to express their personal options. However I am compelled to reply to you as you have chosen to comment about my husband and I on a personal level.On the night that you dined, my husband, who is the head chef, was tucked away in the kitchen (wearing his chef whites) and I was unfortunately at home, tucked up in bed due to illness. I'm afraid to say that you did not meet either of us.The front of house staff who you refer to in your review are 2 of our supervisors. I'm sorry if you think our chosen uniform of jeans and trainers are not smart enough. We believe that what our team wear is in keeping with our establishment; we are, after all, a family friendly village pub.

I donât know what previous reviewers are writing about when they mention poor service....unless they expect the staff to be mind readers. You know what they say, if you donât ask, you donât get. Having said that, we didnât have to ask for anything, it was offered.The food was excellent, probably the best fillet steak Iâve had in a long time.The staff were attentive without being too overbearing, which for us is just what we want.Overall, it was a great experience.........thanks.

My wife and I were fortunate to receive a gift from our daughter of a Chefs Table dining experience.We arrived slightly before 7pm on a Saturday night and were greeted by James himself. James was welcoming and engaging, asking for our name and immediately identified that we were there for the Chefs Table. James took our coats and asked us to take a seat in the waiting area. Two wonderful glasses of champagne were rapidly presented to us to enjoy until our âtableâ was ready. We were asked about any likes/dislikes or allergies by Katrin (apologies if Iâve got that wrong), who was lovely. Throughout the night she spoke to us on a few occasions, but was primarily front of house. We were collected by James, who walked us into the kitchen and showed us to the Chefs Table, which in actual fact was a bar type area at the head of the kitchen with bar chairs, giving an excellent view of the whole kitchen and prep areas.We were introduced to the kitchen staff/chefs by James, and hopefully I have their names correct, Georgina, Joel, Chris and Joe. All were very friendly, and engaging and answered any questions that we threw at them, silly or otherwise.The Chefs Table is a 14 course menu, and covers all course types and food groups. We decided to pair the courses with wine which is optional (at an extra cost). We decided on the nine course pairing. We were introduced to George, our sommelier for the evening, who was wonderful. George explained each wine, itâs producer, region and the reason why he had chosen that particular wine to go with the courses being served.Each course was prepared in our view, and presented by the chef preparing it. Each explained how the dish was made and explained all aspects of the dish and itâs contents. Now at this point Iâm not going to reveal what we actually had, as I would not want to take away the theatre of the presentation on the night should any of you choose to do the Chefs Table, but be rest assured, the food served and presented to us was exceptional! The whole evening lasts a little over 3hrs, and at no point were we rushed to continue onto the next course. James explained at the outset that the food does come quite quickly, but stated that if we wanted to take a break between courses, then we should just let the chefs know, preferably one course in advance. Having watched many professional kitchens on television depicted as places of stress, shouting, sweating, swearing and any other s I could imagine, Sommerinâs is nothing like it! The staff work in a friendly, light hearted yet professional manner. There is no shouting, as each chef is aware of what is going on, and works their stations with complete control. This appears to be a happy environment to work in, although at times extremely busy, with orders coming in rapidly throughout the service.All in all this was an excellent experience, in a restaurant run by one of the UKâs best Chefs.Would I go again? In a heartbeat. Although we were treated to a behind the scenes look at the kitchen, Iâm pretty sure that the front of house experience is equally memorable! To James and all the Staff, a very big thank you for a wonderful evening. We shall return.

We popped in for breakfast on a Monday morning before heading home from our weekend away.The quality and the quantity of the cooked breakfast was very good, the price was very good value. The owners were very friendly and are obviously popular with the locals.The only issue I can see is parking as it's in a residential area. We managed to find a space on a street about 100 yards away.Thoroughly recommended for breakfast.

Love love love this restaurant, have been wanting to visit for ages, finally got around to doing so & I did not disappoint! From the moment we walked through the door we were made to feel welcome, the staff are so lovely! We ordered from the tapas menu & it was delicious, the chorizo was particularly good, a were the prawns. Next time I go I will definitely be ordering the steak on a sizzler, lots of people sitting around us had them and they looked and smelt soooo good! My husband ordered an expresso Martini, but they had run out of one of the ingredients, so substituted it with milk, so what they brought was a really milky, sweet drink, my husband didnât like it (although he still drank it ). When the manager came over to clear the empty glasses and asked if he liked it - my husband explained that he didnât, so the manager gave us a free round of drinks... we didnât ask for them, he just brought them over, he didnât have to but it was a really nice touch! I would recommend a visit to this place and will definitely be returning - well done Cariad we have a fantastic night!

We were very pleasantly surprised...the pub looks not a lot from outside..even a bit run down...We found this place in "BritStop" book & were planning to take motor home but changed mind at last minute.Inside its newly refurbed and very nice. I had a starter of Fishcakes hubby had calamari... he asked a Q about his starter & immediately it was replaced ... Calamari like the fish cake was very nice.The main courses Lamb Rump & Ribeye were better than I've had in Cardiff restaurants & the portions were huge.. CHIPS TO DIE FOR !! sauces with both meats exceptionally tasty ....We had plans for desserts & chessboard but "eyes bigger than bellies" we shared a cheesecake which again was a large good quality portion of food.Very reasonably priced wine list & menu ..Highly recommend... we will be back with our Motor home...no taxis or need to drive ...

We visited on a Saturday morning around 10am for breakfast.The quality and the quantity of the cooked breakfast was excellent. From the bacon, to the slices of bread, to the milkshake, we thoroughly enjoyed it all. We couldn't fault any of it and the price was very reasonable. Staff were cheery and welcoming. Thoroughly recommended.
