Smart street-corner pub about 10 minutes walk from Clapham Junction Station. Two cask beers on handpump when I visited. Lots of outdoor seating in the garden to the rear most of it covered. I was only visiting for a pint before a show at the Battersea Arts Centre but the pub offers an interesting Mediterranean influenced menu. Friendly and helpful staff.

Fantastic local pub with a great selection of drinks and a bold, Mediterranean inspired menu that makes for a welcome change from the usual British pub classics. The VIBE is resoundingly warm & local, perhaps helped by a more traditional exterior that wards off snobs. The beer garden is a tranquil retreat and there are many nooks and crannies around the pub where you can post up for a private chat. The FOOD is great and the menu is well thought out. Light bites, hearty meals and sharing platters all feature as well as a nice ever-changing selection of cheeses. The SERVICE is great but perhaps a little slow, although I think that's all part of the charm. This isn't a pub that's churning out the vodka soda limes to a charged up crowd, it's a nice local haunt that wouldn't be out of place in the countryside.

A popular neighborhood pub with superb service and a hearty yet well put together menu, reasonably priced with sensible portions. The wine list organised by country and region is a thoughtful one pager, designed not to overwhelm but to give a range of food pairings some choice. Clean, welcoming of pet dogs and humming nicely when I visited. The perfect gastro pub.

Family meal, good food and great service. Nice old Victorian pub with a nice courtyard garden at the rear. Not much free parking around the pub on Mondays to Fridays, but plenty at the weekend.

The Fox and Hounds is a nice, traditional pub with a dark interior and lots of random framed posters. It offers a good range of beers, wines, spirits and cocktails. It has a reasonable dinner menu and the food is very good - so much so that I'd call it a gastropub. Service is nice and friendly. Recommended. 😀 This is my second visit but for some reason Google has removed my previous review in 2022.

Really like this pub. Excellent service, very friendly and welcoming. Probably the best beer garden ive been to, so well kept and looked after. Nice and chilled. Food is fab here. We have only been during the day, but we really want to try an evening one weekend.

3.75 out of 5. Good local feeling pub with better than average food. A little light on cask ale selections. Plenty of draft lagers. Bangers and mash were good and used a tasty Italian sausage. Beef ragu and pappardelle was tasty, more beef stew taste than tomato taste. Service is good, chatty bartenders and the atmosphere is brighter than traditional pubs. Beer garden out back.

Excellent pub in Clapham, with fantastic food and a great selection of booze to choose from. However, the best thing about it for me is the garden - one of the best I've ever been to in London in terms of atmosphere. You might not immediately think so when visiting, but the size of it, combined with the lush planting and the nice evening lighting, makes it feel like you're on holiday during hot summer evenings.

Fox review 8/10. Fantastic staff, Amazing food, severely let down by shoddy maintenance, nails poking through the floor caught my wife's shoe, chairs in need of replacement and a cracked window next to our table. 8/10

Dreadful.. Roast Beef at £16.50, very pricey which is fine if it lives up to the price however mine was covered in a horrible tomato sauce instead of gravy. When I questioned the waitress she sneered and said 'I can check but this is definitely gravy' and then came back and said that the chef had told her all his gravy contained tomato sauce and seemed incredulous that I thought this was odd....<br/><br/>Boyfriends squid ink pasta cooked beyond an inch of its life, all mushy with tiny rubbery quid rings and friends chicken anglotti underseasoned and bland.<br/><br/>I have never written a complaint on a review site before but this was shocking.

The menu offers Mediterranean cooking rather than traditional pub grub. Dishes such as the pasta with sausage ragu seem to have become permanent fixtures...

I have been attempting a (brief) self-imposed hiatus from restaurant-going, partly because there really is only so much fois gras any person should healthily ingest in the space of a year, but also (mainly, if I'm going to be honest) because my bank balan
