At Fox Hounds Country Inn

We called in as we were walking back to Appleton le Moors. The menu is very expensive but they had Mardens Pedigree on which was very tasty.

A consistently strong performance on our second visit. It’s always a concern when revisiting somewhere after a great first visit, yet the team really make the Fox and Hounds a relaxing and positive place, so good to see that our first impression was proved to be correct The team again delivered an excellent standard throughout we will return again in the New Year

We had 2 evening meals and there was a good choice of fish and meat. It is an expensive menu but the food was excellent from the trio of fish starters and the halibut and also the Yorkshire lamb. The staff enjoy their work and are very friendly. We also had 2 excellent breakfasts with a good choice. We would have liked some fresh fruit but we really enjoyed our breakfasts.

Absolutely fabulous. We booked at short notice on a recommendation and boy were we not disappointed. The service, ambience, food and wine were exceptional. A wonderful evening and good value for money. Great menu selection and cooked to perfection with a good choice of accompanying wines. Thoroughly enjoyed it and we will definitely be back and next time to hopefully stay as well

Ate here with my husband and young son. Whilst there is no kids menu, we ordered some sides for the little one, and he was more than happy! We ordered off the specials menu in the end, it was just so tempting! Food was incredible..the chocolate orange croissant bread and butter pudding was amazing! We went for 2 courses and ended up ordering dessert too! Staff were all so helpful! Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area!

This is a special place, its not often im really impressed but The Fox Hound deserves lots of praise. From the fantastic menu and food to the great and friendly staff i could not pick fault. The whole place is finished to a really high standard and you can see the care and love put into every detail. The outdoor area is the best I can ever remember seeing. 8 of us had lunch 4 adults and 4 children and everything was perfect. This could become my favourite pub in North Yorkshire.

Booked for dinner on Sunday. The service set the scene initially. It was friendly, professional and efficient. The menu was interesting and there were some lovely specials. The cooking exceeded all our expectations, wonderful flavours, not too big and perfectly cooked. There was real attention to detail. Clearly a very talented chef in the kitchen. I am normally too full for a dessert but I couldn’t resist the raspberry soufflé and it was beautifully light. Altogether well up to the best of the best and although not cheap we felt the quality of the food and service made it excellent value for money. Can’t wait to return and perhaps stay a night or two in the lovely bedrooms.

I came across the Fox and Hounds as I needed a hotel near to Pickering and my others were fully booked, so we managed to book a room and a table at the Fox and Hounds. We had a lovely quiet table, the atmosphere in the restaurant area was lovely and relaxed, we reviewed the menu and the specials and I decided to go with the fillet steak and I am so glad I did, the steak was out of this world, the sauce was delicious and the portions were what you would expect from a fine dining restaurant, the sweets were absolutely fantastic. We found the staff to be friendly and knowledgeable about the food and wines. As we stayed the night we were able to take breakfast in the morning, again it was just a...

We came here for my wife’s birthday and opted for the Ala carte menu. Lovely little pub, really clean and friendly staff. We didn’t look at the menu before we booked so was shocked when staff brought it to the table. The menu didn’t reflect a country pub/Inn and was pretentious and massively overpriced. There was a note at the bottom of the menu about how the chef likes to serve the food as intended, which was a red flag. When the food arrived it did taste nice enough but there was practically nothing there. We decided not to have dessert as we feared we would need to remortgage! A country pub should be about rustic, honest, wholesome food and should feel like the next step up from home. I h...
