Sunday lunch call in when we spotted it driving past. Old historic pub circa 1700. Friendly greeting from staff on arrival, nice clean traditional pub. WiFi password clearly on display, good selection of beers spirits (only 1 non alcohol option Guinness). They have a sharing platter option for Sunday lunch as well as sarnies etc. the platter can be for 2 or 4 people consists of Yorkshires, local meats, roast mash spuds, selection of veg gravy. Absolute bargain price delicious, Yorkies were a bit cold but to be fair we arrived 10 mins after dinner service finished they kindly agreed to serve us. Recommended wish this pub was on our doorstep. My wife even said shall we drive the 98 miles there...
The last time we visited was around 9 months ago, where a newish landlord and lady were in and putting a lot of work in to both the pub, restaurant and outside area so we were both looking forward to seeing how things had moved on… Surprisingly it need not seem quite as clean, looked like works had stopped and the price of drinks had gone up quite a bit. After talking to a few of the locals we were told the pub had been taken over, which is a real shame as you can see the difference. There was nothing wrong with our drinks, we could not complain just did not have much of the old friendly feeling. Just feels like an average pub…
Nice old pub, recently under new management, with friendly staff. One of our party is vegan and unfortunately there was no vegan options available that evening on the menu, but the Landlady was very pro active in liaising with the kitchen to try and find something suitable, and an alternative was found. Not once were we made to feel awkward or that we were being a pain. Good home cooked food, including pizzas I can personally recommend the pork belly. Thank you.
What a lovely pub! Very warm and welcoming feeling when you go in there. We had a Sunday roast and the sharing platter is such a great idea, everything was really tasty, the only minor grumble would be the portions the meat was quite thinly sliced and wasn't a huge amount of it but still very good. Thank you.

Only commenting on the pub side but I feel I must give the place 5 stars. Stayed in a holiday let a few doors away and walked into the bar to the best of welcomes. Great range of beers including at least 5 real ales but it was the very friendly locals that made the place. Thanks everyone.
We've eaten here a few times- lunch, pie night, Saturday night and everytime the food has been excellent. Everything appears to be home made using local ingredients. Busy on a weekend so best to book. Car park to the rear. Highly recommended.
We recently enjoyed a meal at The Fox and Hounds. We chose the delicious pies and the staff were really friendly and attentive. Highly recommended for anyone seeking traditional pub food in the Yorkshire Dales.
We ate at The Fox in July whilst staying in West Witton.It was pie night.The fish pie was delicious and belly pork excellent.We will definitely be back.
