The Fox & Hounds

The Fox & Hounds pub and restaurant is a family run village pub in Ramsden Heath, near Billericay in Essex. We are open 6 days a week from midday till 11 pm and serve food every lunchtime and evening. Along with the pub we have our heated and covered patio area and a large garden. The Fox & Hounds is a small village pub with a large atmosphere. We have many different areas for drinking, not only inside at our bar with a cosy log fire in the winter but also in our outdoor heated and covered area and our large garden. At the pub, we love well-behaved dogs and they are welcome in all areas of the pub except in restaurant areas. The Fox & Hounds is perfect for your own private party. We have many areas that can be hired including our restaurant, outside areas and our large heated marquee, which is perfectly suited for birthday parties, Christmas parties, company functions and wakes.

A lovely country pub. We went on Saturday afternoon and had a very nice meal. The beer was good and kept well with a decent selection. There was a decent menu but not too large. All the food we had tasted fresh. I had the ham eggs and chips, plenty of ham and really good chunky chips. My wife had the chicken Caesar salad which was very good and a decent size. The sponge pudding was lovely with proper custard. The staff were very friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough for you. At least 4 and a half stars

We had a fantastic Mother's Day meal at the 🦊 & 🐕. The children's meals we're plenty and the staff we're very pleasant and friendly. Did feel the roast potatoes we're slightly over cooked but that's just nit picking. Only 4 stars because I don't really like the stuffed animals but the food and staff are great.

Sunday roast was disappointing. We came here for the first time and unfortunately last time. The ladies at the front seemed pleasant enough but not attentive. We were told our food will take 15 mins and nearly an hour later it wasn't. We went back to the bar to check and struggled to get attention as they were chatting away. Turns out the roast is ready and they were going to bring it out now. I presume it sat under a lamp for a while. The meat was so dry and visibly not appealing. The extra portion of toasties had zero seasoning on them. We ate as we were starving but didn't enjoy it.
