Fantastic food, serving sizes are extremely generous. The staff are all friendly, my first time here but was travelling through and wasn't disappointed. It is somewhere I would return to.

Great value for money pub grub. Good size portions. Sirlon Steak was very good. Cooked perfectly for medium rare and very tasty. Good size cod and giant burgers. Almost too much food so we did not have room for desert. Perhaps the chips are too chunky !

Always a lovely calm visit here. For a village pub the range of cask ales on is exceptional. The prices are excellent too and the staff and locals are friendly. A lovely, traditional, comfortable pub which for anyone passing Thurston on the train, who has some time to maybe alight and catch the next one, for example. This is a must.
I always make an effort to visit if I can.
Vegetarian options: Yes
Parking: The pub has its own car park although on the weekends this of course, can be busy. Limited Street parking is available nearby with a paid carpark approx 30 seconds to 1 min walk from the pub, at Thurston railway station
Kid-friendliness: Well heaved children as this is a local family friendly traditional pub.

First time visiting Fox and hounds. I ordered the steak & Ale pie, the food was served piping hot, by one of the friendly waiters, (didn’t catch her name, wearing glasses) absolutely delicious, big tender chunks of beef, served with chips & veg, carrots tasted a little to chemical too me, for dessert I choose biscoff cheesecake, looked really presentable, tasted a little lifeless, so for that reason, I give 4stars. Would come back again to try a roast dinner. 😃

Beautiful local pub with great food. Staff are friendly and make the experience a great one.
It's good enough we went twice while we were staying in the area.

Good pub.
Atmosphere has changed a bit over the past few years, decent beer still here though.
Have not been for food, but most reviews give it a thumbs up!

Great pub; my mates like the ales & the lager is pretty decent too, along with the cider. Cheesy chips are the best & the staff are very friendly.
Went again in June 2022 with my two sons for a midweek meal out. Great value steaks and it was warm enough to sit outside too. Shame I forgot to get my loyalty card stamped.

Usually such a great pub... Visited with 3 friends on Saturday 1st May 2021 and took our place in the tent. Sat down just before 7pm. First drink arrived at 7:31... Good job we ordered 2 rounds at once to avoid further dry spells. The food we ordered came fairly promptly and my medium rare sirloin was one of the best steaks I've had anywhere, ever. The beer service continued to be slow, but double rounds was the solution! With a captive audience, the drink service could have been better organised, but we will be back.
