Nick Davies left this review about The Fox and Hounds
From the outside you see a splendid stone building on fairly grand scale for a village pub. Once you get inside your hopes are dashed as you find yourself in one of M&B's Landmark Leisure abortions. It been been cynically refurbished into yet another identikit gastropub, so there's nothing pubby about it at all. It of course appeals to the more tosserish residents of Northampton, who think fifteen quids worth of Brake Brothers boil in the bag sea-bass is the pinnacle of eating out, but anyone expecting a comfy village pub to go and have a drink in will be sorely disappointed.
I'll give it a couple of points because the TT Landlord was in good nick but tha'ts the best I can say about it.
Avoid.
