Fox & Hound English Pub & Grille

I’ve been here on several occasions and usually I would have a grand time. However, last night was the worst experience I’ve ever had. We sat at a table and no one came to give us menus. We had to find a server and to place our orders. We ordered one ultimate platter initially. Then placed another one about ten minutes later. It was a pretty slow night so the food came out in a timely manner. But the service was absolutely terrible. The server never checked on us. When she did, we ordered more drinks and when she came back she accidentally dropped it on one of my friends. Luckily he wore mesh shorts so he wasn’t drenched. She didn’t even help clean the mess. We had to pick up the ice off the ground and wipe down the table. She never picked up the finished dishes on our tables. What’s crazy to me was they had vacant tables with finished dishes the entire time we were there. It was disgusting. Our server that night was terrible!

One star for the service. 4 of us walked in on a Saturday night and it was busy but nothing over the top. We sat at the bar because we thought it would be quicker service with the two bartenders. Wrong. Right when we sat down we were greeted and they got us our first round of drinks. After that it went down hill. We weren’t given menus so one of us had to go to a table and get it ourselves. They would walk by and not even look at us, our drinks were already done and we were looking to order but they were just walking by and not even trying to take our order. By the time we got around the order, one of the bartenders was having an attitude and got a manager to talk to us. For what? Us being ignored. We just grabbed our food and left. No wonder Buffalo Wild Wings is killing this place.

I absolutely loved this place. Came here with a group of friends late on a Wednesday night and had a great time! We were on the side that has the pool tables and shuffleboard and basically had the place to ourselves. The martinis were strong, some sweeter than others, but overall were good. Wednesday nights they have half off martinis. I nibbled on a few of the appetizers and can’t say anything bad about them. Our server was awesome… very attentive and super helpful. Overall, this place is great to come hang out, play some games, and have a couple drinks and snacks! Def coming back!

Food mediocre, wings were cold when denigrated. Took longer to get check than to get food. Service was slow and not very good. bathrooms were filthy as was the dining room.

Decent pub food. Had a salad and it was fresh. The overall impression was good but just decent not wow. Prices are typical pub prices. The server was super nice and kept refilling my club soda. My husband likes to come here for lunch and they are sweet to accommodate his changes to the menu. Solid lunch place.

Only thing enjoyable was the servers snarky honesty. We waited an hour and a half for lukewarm food. Burgers were dry and fries were ice cold. Mac and cheese with chicken was missing the chicken. Boneless wings tasted freezer burnt. The staff is nice but the kitchen is terrible.

My family of 5 were there on a very slow evening … There was maybe two other tables being served … Food came out ice cold … Will not return

Our waitress was completely drunk and could care less about our food and table. In fact, she sat at the bar and talked to another waitress instead of checking up on us. She sat there while we could see our food sitting up there getting cold. By the time she realized our food was up and brought to us, it was 100% cold. A burger and fries should not be cold, especially if there was one other table besides ours. There was no one there and we should not have gotten that poor of service. I get that it’s a pub and I’m fine with waiters and waitresses drinking, but if you become so drunk you can’t even take care of one table, you shouldn’t be working there. Horrible service. Worst I’ve ever gotten. Food could have been good, but it was so cold I couldn’t tell.

We were looking for an alternative to BWW for Sunday football, and decided to give Fox & Hound a try. SUPER glad we did.
The food really good, and the service has been great 100% of the time.
The servers are great; very engaging and attentive. Management is always present, checking in throughout the meal.
Tons of tv’s, pool tables, and other little games. Highly recommended.

Came to the area to watch a game with a friend and stopped by F&H. I liked the screen room with surround sound that they had for the game and they also have a great selection of beers. The food though is not great in fact its pretty bad. I would come here to watch the game and drink but eat before I come.

My first time at any Fox & Hound location, and I found it to be okay. The venue is certainly large enough to accommodate the maximum amount of people allowed under the fire marshall’s code and looks a bit cavernous upon entering (a good thing). There is a separate room that has additional dining areas, pool tables and other games.
I found the food to be good, yet not outstanding. I was quite hungry and wasn’t about to stuff myself with any of the pizza and burger places that are in close proximity to this location. The chips and salsa were so-​so. The salsa had a different taste to it, as if it was homemade. The chips were just different altogether. Either way, I made do. The cuban sandwich that I had as an entrée made up for any of the appetizer’s deficiency (outstanding sandwich), while I washed everything down with a tall Lagunitas IPA brew that was on draft. My female server, a very attractive 30-​yr old from the west bank, was quite pleasant and did pretty well in accommodating me and other tables in the main room (I sat in the billiards area) and was prompt. I can’t say that for the kitchen, since it took them forever just to make a sandwich. Like 20, 22 minutes. To make a sandwich? I went during lunch hours on a Friday, which I found to be somewhat slow at the time. But sheesh, that’s a long time to get food out.
Parking here is good. I would highly recommend not parking directly in front of the building, since the area traffic will absolutely not yield to you backing out. Cars here fly like NASCAR here, so why risk getting t-​boned or sideswiped. Hence, parking across the street, which is only a 15 – 20 foot walk. Plenty of parking there, and no cars putting you at risk.
Other than that, this place is okay.

Great place to catch the game. Love the fish tacos, burgers and nachos but the French dip rules here

If you want a very clean, smoke free place with reliable & cordial staff, a ton of pool tables & absent the loud music, check out Fox & Hound. Sure, they have bar food – it’s a bar! But it’s really good bar food if you ask me. The fish & chips is good (my choice there) and they’re roast beef (French dip) has a good taste too. Salsa has a good flavor as well. One of the best bars for sitting and watching a game, too – it’s very pretty & fancy :). Staff never has a snide attitude and will pay attention to you.

I have made this place a regular lunch visit. Absolutely love the Black Forest sandwich. Fries are always seasoned just right. Good place to watch a sporting event. Oh and the waitresses are very friendly and professional. If you like Pool this place has plenty of tables ready to play on in the afternoons.

This place looks nice & so many tv’s. But the food wasn’t great. I had the flatbread pizza & wings. I wouldn’t recommend either. Only gave it 2 stars for the $ 2 beer.
Will not return.

BLUF: I’d go back for a game if I was in Metairie. Bar food and beers.
Beer selection is not all that spectacular but better than your standard location. The bar food is actually pretty good. I got the pretzel pastrami and it was really really good. Fries were reallly good too.
Pool, darts, mma. Fine sports bar. Good place to go if you have a ton of people

Stopped here for drinks and dinner. The special was $ 3 skinny girl cocktails. Server was confused and offered very little help. (Ok, no help) even when she heard me say I really wanted a drink. Her lack of knowledge of the specials, drinks and overall lack of concern resulted in ordering a water with lemon and opting to go elsewhere for drinks. We did order cheese wedges which were ice cold in the middle. My husband was very adamant about not complaining since our entrée had not arrived. I did get up and ask bartender for silverware and napkins after our appetizer arrived. This was not a busy evening.
Ordered steak salad medium rare. It came rare & cold. Ice cold. Salad did not come out as described. Our server disappeared and I actual called the restaurant from my table to get someone to check on us. There were only 5 other diners at tables and 4 people people at the bar.
When a manager finally arrived at our booth, he was more than professional and apologetic. He offered to do what was needed to make us happy we declined the comp cards and free cocktail. My husband was starving and ate his salad and paid for it. The rest was comped. The server was not suited for customer service industry.

I know everybody seems to have a mediocre opinion about this place. And I would tend to agree, but I don’t think it’s at all a bad experience.
$ 2 pint Tuesdays are more than a worthy weekday experience. I always get the nachos and they are easily some of the best nachos I’ve ever had! Now, having said that, the hot wings are different just about every time I get them. Sometimes they are great and flavorful and the sauce is just the right level of hot… And sometimes they are dry and sauce taste different and it’s either super mild or super spicy. So, yes there’s definitely some inconsistencies in the kitchen.
Also, the staff seems to have a high level of turnover. There’s always new faces working there and some servers are really friendly and knowledgable while others seem like they were hired literally yesterday and have no idea what they are doing.
But the good news is they seem to be really trying to re-​vamp their menu lately. They have been making a lot of changes and I think most of them have been for the better. Granite, I go here to mainly drink some beer, maybe play some pool or watch a game on TV, and order a nibble on the side… not necessarily to «dine.» So maybe my expectations are a little lower than most.
But hey, with all the new restaurants that just boomed up around them they seem to be really struggling with all the extra competition. I personally want to route for them because I have had some great times at the olé fox and hound.
I hope they keep improving :-)

I used to go to this place back when I was living in Metairie I used to hit this place up once in a while. I am not much of a fan of writing reviews about chain restaurants but here we go.
The service here has always been fairly decent. The waitresses have always been polite and attentive. Best of all quiet a few of the servers here are really pretty. Kinda pointless to mention but I figured I would throw that out their.
The food here is okay but nothing special. Their beer battered chicken tenders were alright but nothing to brag about. Most of the food I have had here was Mediocre at very best.
This place has a full bar and decent drinking selection. It is a little on the pricey side for most drinks and beers.
Probably the best thing about this place is that they have lots of pool tables. The layout consists of a dining room in the middle, pool tables in another section, and a side area reserved for parties or other events in another section.
The biggest con about this place is the fact that there is usually a JPSO squad car waiting outside to bust someone for drunk driving. So if you go here make sure you have a designated driver with you.
In short decent service, mediocre food, full bar, and pool tables. But make sure you stay sober unless you want a DUI.

I am still fuming over the waste of time and money that is Fox and Hound.
Horrendous. That covers the food and the service.
It took two different waitresses before they decided who was going to take care of us. They were nice ladies but they were extremely short staffed. Everything was painfully slow and the mood at the table went from anticipation at a new experience to apathy. We felt defeated.
My Reuben sandwich was just awful. And I mean poor quality meat. It was so tough and rubbery, I couldn’t penetrate it with my incisors. The first bite was all gristley and I had to spit it out. The second was decidedly horrible as well. I was very disappointed.
By the time we left, we were tired and full of regret at the money that was wasted.
