The Fox — Restaurant in England

If we could give 0 stars, we would. Don't brush over the bad reviews on TripAdvisor or anywhere thinking they are not true or relevant. They really are. After asking twice at the bar to order, finally as we were packing up to leave someone came to take ours, 35 minutes after arriving. The staff were too busy re setting empty tables and cleaning tables to take new orders despite most the tables being unoccupied at this point! No one apologised or even smiled. The customer service leaves alot to be desired as the other reviews state across forums. We reluctantly ordered with two very hungry children. The food - what is going on in the kitchen?

The food was really not great, tough meat, watery gravy, the roast potatoes seemed like they were precooked the day before and for £14.50 you can find so much better for that price for modern, fresh and local food. The dining area also resembles an old people's home, it's so stale and stuffy.
