The Fox and Hounds

Visited for Sunday Lunch The roast lunch of beef was average at best… £17.50…very small portion of beef (ie two small thin slices), no traditional vegetables, tiny Yorkshire Puddings. Fish and Chips were ok. £17.50. Nice fish, chips were ok but not a large portion. No vegetables eg peas. Tomato sauce was those tiny little plastic things you have to tear - not great. Nice pudding of ginger cake was large but with a small scoop of ice cream. No gluten and dairy free options. So went without!! Service wasn’t great. We weren’t asked if our food was ok. Waiter was (presumably) new - which wasn’t an issue, but was very inexperienced from start to finish … but everyone has to start somewhere! Nice setting, sat outside in the sun. £££

I remembered this place so fondly from 10 or so years ago. We booked for Sunday lunch September '24 and it was truly terrible. Aunt Bessie Yorkshire Puddings, dried up Kleftico, small portions, over-priced (even without factoring in the standard of the food) I'm bewildered at the other reviews. The staff were unfriendly; Nobody bothered to ask how everything was with our meals. I think I know the reason why. Worst meal I've had in a while. We definitely won't be returning.

Super Sunday lunch. Very tasty and host was very welcoming. Quick service. Traditional pub that i exoect is verÿ cosy in winter. My only negative would be that the windows were dirty and lots of cobwebs, probably partly to due with being an old building

I booked due to its location to Rutland Water, and the fact that lots of reviews comment on the quality of the food. I wasn't disappointed, the room was large and well decorated and the food quality was excellent. The owner made us feel very welcome.

A perfect hotel for our first visit to Rutland Water. Our room for our two four legged companions was just ideal and we and the dogs were made to feel very welcome. We were most impressed with the walks from the door for the dogs and they were definitely an added bonus. Food was delicious.

I had to go back and visit to make sure the first time wasn't a one off, and it wasn't. What a fantastic place to visit, early check in - no problem, room service - no problem, breakfast simply stunning and wow, the open fire, what a "roaring success" provided by probably the best looking farmer I've ever met. Can't wait to go back to the music evenings Simon and Christina are running this summer. Simon obviously has a gift of warmth hospitality. Thanks
