Quinno _ left this review about The Foxhound
Two room former coaching house, the left room is for dining with the right for drinking, bisected by a central bar. We settled in with the other drinkers in the right side, the room decorated with a blue and yellow pub carpet, dart board, stove, black and white framed local pictures, CAMRA awards, a trophy haul and a myriad of pump clips on the beams. Five ales; South Hams Pandemonium, a house beer of uncertain provenance, Bombardier, Courage Directors and Best as well as Green Valley cider. Not a particularly thrilling ale selection and we inevitably opted for the South Hams which was a nice beer in good nick. Very friendly barmaid and a nice laid-back atmosphere within, with some easy-going locals who welcomed us with some chat. I really liked it here, a shame that the beer range was a bit pedestrian otherwise I might have dropped a 9.

Visited May 2013. Excellent traditional pub, apparently voted Plymouth CAMRA’s best country pub in 2011 and overall best pub in 2012. Decor throughout is the straightforward black beams and wood, white walls and ceiling model. To the right is the public bar, with dartboard, jukebox, games machine and a vast array of pump clips testifying to the range of guest beers that have been served here. To the left are two more foodie areas, with shelves adorned with a wide variety of toby jugs, tankards and suchlike. Drinks offerings include the fruits of six hand pumps, on my first visit serving from £3/pint Summerskills Redcoat (brewed by the landlord himself I was told), and Indiana’s Bones, Eddystone, Theakstons Masham Four and Twenty, Courage Best, and Red Grape Scrumpy cider, several of which we tried and found to be in perfect condition, and three of which had changed by the time of our second visit two days later. Food was good too. We really liked this pub, which was buzzing even on nights when everywhere else seemed dead.
