Type: Pub/Inn
Situated in the conservation area of Barnston on the Wirral Peninsula, the present pub was built about 1911 on the site of an Ale House & Barn. A lot of the original character was retained when downstairs living accommodation was converted into drinking space in 1984. The Lounge Bar is perfect for a quiet drink or an ideal dining area at lunchtimes. The original bar is still in place and the open fire creates a homely atmosphere on those cold winter days. Most of the Edwardian building's character has been preserved, including pitch pine woodwork and leaded windows.
The Fox and Hounds serves traditional lunches 7 days week including Platters, Toasted Ciabattas and Baked Potatoes, Open Sandwiches together with the 'Daily Specials'. Traditional Roasts are served on Sundays.
Famous for its range of well kept Real Ales including: Websters Bitter, Theakston Best Bitter, Old Peculiar, Guest Beers & Brews from local breweries, and also its selection of over 60 whiskies.
