Fox & Hounds — Restaurant in England

Plenty of parking and convenient for Northallerton the Fox and Hounds is a nicely positioned, good looking pub with well kept flower beds. You get the sense people care. The interior is smart and comfortable and would have a broad appeal. There is an area for all but it's main business is given over to food. The staff are smartly turned out in uniforms and left no room for complaint. The food was good, I had a veggie burger with home made chips and it was very good, with more than enough chips.

We arrived a little earlier than our 5pm booking so that we could enjoy a pre dinner drink only to find the place in darkness and car park empty which was concerning. When I knocked on the door we were told that they didn't open till 5pm due to staff shortages even though the website said otherwise. It got to about 5.10pm and there was no sign of any other customers so as we did not want to be the only ones in the pub with no atmosphere we decided to leave and grab Fish & Chips on the way home.
