Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We were booked into The Crown but looking at their Sunday menu realised that their wasn’t much choice on their Sunday menu & it seemed to be over-priced. We called the Fox & Duck and asked to book for 9 with 45 minutes notice, the landlord warned us that their was a group in watching football & on arrival he had set up a table away from the noise but with a projector showing the football for our boys. From start to finish the landlord was so friendly & accommodating & couldn’t do enough for us. The food choice was extensive & the food was amazing. All 9 of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals, the loaded chips were the best I’ve tasted. They even boxed up our few slices of left over pizza to take away. The deserts were home made & were delicious! I’d really recommend this pub, it is such good value for money.

This pub does not ever fail to amaze me with the quality of food they produce.
It’s that good this was my 2nd visit in 4 days for food for my family.
A string favourite of mine is the former burger which at under £8 is an absolute bargain in my eyes with the staff taking every little piece of information and feeding it through to the kitchen.
The owner is an absolute diamond of a bloke and nothing is too much trouble for his customers.
This place is a hidden gem and a must for people to visit

A desire for a Sunday Lunch, at short notice, prompted us to book a table for two at our local Pub. The Fox & Duck had been highly recommended by a fellow Allotmenteer and I was really looking forward to discovering a local eatery.
Suprised how empty the venue was, with few people at the bar or in the restaurant, I think the economy is hitting hard. We were walked through the pub, passed the pool table to a Marquee, in which we sat (heated) watching the gorgeous autumn colours on the trees within view.
The food arrived in good time and was clearly home made and hearty, just what we needed. Delicious 'Lamb Shank' falling off the bone with crispy roast potatoes and a mint gravy that was absolutely beautiful.. A really well put together dish, so good that I could forgive the over-cooked broccoli and cauliflower.
Gary and his staff couldn't be more caring about what they do. Thanks very much.

I visited tonight as in the past it was a really upmarket bar and restaurant but things have definately changed. The menu was basic pub group and noticing mould on the tomato in my salad completely put me off my meal. I pointed it out but the chef said he didn't know why and that was that. Shocking food and service.

Omg ! This lady came on her own table for one because she had had a bad night elsewhere and was not in a good mood when she arrived, we were very quite and we made an effort with her and she proceeded to eat all her food Ribs and wings platter apart from salad which she said the tomato was mouldy, we failed to see mould on the quarter of tomato she pointed out and all the food was in date and up to food hygiene standards.
This lady said visited before the upmarket restaurant well we have never seen her before and I’ve been here three and half years and pub grub (not group) is what we do here maybe she should of looked at website before the visit ?
Very disappointed with this review and I hope her next date goes better then the one last night

Visited here recently with friends and sat in the beer garden. The pub is a great space and have a fantastic menu, and the food we had (combinations of small plates) was really tasty. Lots of layers on tap bit very limited selection of ales. While the staff are all very friendly and I appreciate the pub was quiet when we visited, I was disappointed to see that the person serving us wasn't wearing a mask and those that were weren't wearing them properly.

Visited for lunch on a Friday lunch time after moving on from Crown at Henlow as choices were not simple enough for my mum. Not impressed with choice but quality of food better than expected. Sad to see such a great location resorted to a ‘sport’ pub, all restaurant tables gone, replaced by pool table. This establishment with new owner has had so many different menus. Seems now just for work men / sport enthusiasts and no restaurant tables any more.

Thank you for your feedback soozy, we tried the full restaurant for nearly three years and it was very difficult because of our location to get regular visitors to return although the food got great reviews with the sports bar as it is now we get a core of regular customers trade has increased and my overheads reduced.
We still do food and everyone seems happy with our food as you can see the last 5 trip advisors been 5*
Glad you enjoyed your food and hope you understand the change to venue.

Went here in week with friends for drinks. Great selection of Gins. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Was impressed by bar staff making us aware of Covid rules on arrival and these were followed.
Nice relaxing catch up - will be back to eat as well next time.

Honestly restaurant quality food, steak cooked perfect, and my fox and duck chicken was unreal!. Lovely setting to eat inside or out. The staff are what make this work also, all so helpful and friendly. Will definitely be visiting again very soon

NEVER AGAIN!! I telephoned the previous day to confirm that they were serving lunches on Monday, and received an affirmative reply. When we arrived with our guests from New Zealand ( 6 people in total) we found the dining area in total dis-array following a wedding party over the weekend., and no tables either set or arranged for dining. Furniture was swiftly rearranged for us and our drinks order taken. We then waited and waited for the drinks to arrive. Eventually they were served and our food orders taken, and this followed by a delay so long we were contemplating leaving the venue. It transpires that the landlord had not arranged for any kitchen staff as he did not anticipate they would be needed, and he was running the pub bar and the kitchen by himself. He had to make a phone call to get someone in to cook our lunch, which was eventually served in such a delayed manner that the first two persons had finished their meal while others were still waiting. The jacket potatoes were undercooked. A similar waiting and staggered serving was repeated in serving the sweet course, which is puzzling as it was basically only ice cream. NOT A PLACE TO VISIT TWICE.

Incredible!! Mondays are normally quite and staff are not required I never got someone in to cook their food I cooked myself.
I got FOH lady in to serve them.
They said everything was fine on the day and even had me taking pictures for them in front of the flower wall in the marquee.
They never said a word about any disappointment on the day amazing how two faced people can be
