After reading a copole of very good reviews about this pud/restaurant we thought that we would try it on a Saturday evening at about 8pm. Never like seeing an empty car-park, and wasn't surprised to find on entering that we were the only diners - in fact the only customers! Perhaps we were unlucky to go there on an obviously quiet night - but the food was only average at best. Asparagus on a slice of crusty white toast was a disappointment, and the main course was no improvement - sadly when you hear a microwave "ping" 2 minutes before you are served piping hot vegetables, the obvious connection is made! My partners risotto was served with a side salad that showed no imagination at all. On the plus side the young lady doing service could not be faulted - but with a 90% empty restaurant she wasn't exactly rushed off her feet.As I have said, perhaps we were unlucky - but we won't be returning.

I would like to say how we all thoroughly enjoyed our first meal at your Pub & Restaurant today and compliment the chef and waiting staff.

We have lived in the Ongar area for the past 13 years and unfortunately for us this was only our first visit to the Fox & Goose.

We are returning again next Sunday to celebrate Fathers Day and my Birthday.

I shall be recommending your establishment to my friends, relations and work colleagues in Local Government.

We attended the Christmas Day lunch at the Fox & Goose and it was a very enjoyable lunch.I was also impressed and pleased with the care taken over my husband's gluten free diet - I was called the day after the booking of the meal to talk through the menu and the gluten free requirements, and then approached when we arrived for his bread and toast etc - so many restaurants say they will cater for gluten free and then "forget" after being given notice, so it was lovely to know we hadn't been forgotten.

Therefore, it was a lovely meal, and we really couldn't fault any of it. It really made it a lovely Christmas Day for us

We will certainly come back and will recommend it to our friends

A proper family pub with proper food, makes a change not to be limited to just nuggets for the kids, found it by mistake after seeing the trampoline and bouncy castle in the garden, but will definatly be back.
