Fox & Hounds in Watford

Ah, the Fox & Hounds in Croxley Green – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem, you know? From what I've gathered, it's got this really inviting atmosphere that's spot on for popping in with the family or catching up with mates over a pint. The deals are ace; think affordable lunches and exciting offers that make it easy on the wallet, especially with things like their pensioner specials. And if you're into sports, it's brilliant – they've got all the big games on with Sky and TNT, so you can cheer on your team in comfort. The staff often get a thumbs up for being friendly and helpful, which really adds to the homely feel. But, let's be honest, it does have its off moments; I've heard a few stories about it getting packed and the team struggling to keep up, which might leave you waiting a bit longer than you'd like for your round. Still, overall, it's a solid spot for a relaxed evening, and with its beer garden and handy facilities, it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just maybe avoid the rush hours to keep things smooth sailing.
