Established as a pub in the late 1700s, The Foxhound has been offering a warm welcome and friendly hospitality to locals and visitors alike ever since. It sits beside the A379 Plymouth to Kingsbridge road, about 3 miles east of Plymouth. Click here to find us. The interior is delightfully comfortable and cosy with traditional features such as exposed beams and open fires, photographs of customers and tenants, pictures.

Mine hosts Steve and Sharon Martin took over here in the spring of 2007, together with their boxer, "Stanley". Steve takes great pride in maintaining his ales in prime condition, sales have soared since he arrived. There are 5 rotating real ales, including ales from our local breweries such as Summerskills Brewery, and South Hams Brewery and old favourites such as Otter Amber and Courage Best. We also have a Guest Cider or Perry available on tap which is constantly changing.

Steve and Sharon are pleased to announce that they have again been included in the CAMRA 2011 Good Beer Guide also winning the Plymouth branch "Country Pub of the Year (2011)".

Our public bar is a very friendly place with old photographs of Brixton in years gone by in our ‘Memory Corner’ featured on the walls for all to see. We are dog friendly too so why not call in for a refreshing pint or glass of wine after that long walk. We have a dart board and two Darts Teams together with a Euchre team.

On the last Sunday of every month we have a Quiz Night, no team is too big or too small, £1.00 per person entrance fee which all goes to the local school, Brixton St Mary’s and everyone gets a little bit of something for entering.  It’s a fun night out so why not come along and pit your wits against the other teams.

The Foxhound is also a great place for a meal, with everything on the menu prepared from locally sourced ingredients wherever possible.

Amongst the starters you'll find home-made soup and pâté, or why not try our creamy mussels as a starter, which are grown at Limosa Farm, Brixton Tor, which is literally 800 yards away and these are delivered to us by hand by Martin & Steve who run the farm.

Main courses include delicious steaks, from Moostone Meats, Wembury, we have a varied selection from a 8oz Sirloin to a 20oz T-Bone which are taken from the Devon Ruby which is reared at Wembury by Tim & Charlotte at New Barton Farm. Our fish dishes are also very popular and vegetarian options are also available and if there is a vegetarian option which is not on the main menu please do not hesitate to ask chef if he can prepare something else and if we have the ingredients to hand he will be only too pleased to do this for you.  We also cater for coeliacs.  We also serve a fine Sunday Roast for £8.95, with your choice of Lamb, Pork or Beef, served with all the trimmings.

Why not try the chef's home-made Beef Lasagne, Fish Pie, Curry or his Pie of the Day.  We have recently started our “Pie and a Pint” nights which are proving to be a great success.  Your choice from four different pies, served with mashed potato, new potatoes or homemade chips and either vegetables or peas and a rich gravy together with your pint for only £9.95.  This will normally be the first Wednesday of the month (See our Boards for details) and we also have a “Curry” night which is normally on the third Wednesday of every month.  All you can eat for only £8.95 with four curries to choose from, Popadoms, Naan Bread and all the accompaniments. 

There's also a varied selection of dishes for children for only £4.95 as well as an OAP menu available Monday to Friday Lunchtimes, which has one course for £5.95, two courses for £7.95 and why not go for all three for only £9.95.  There is a “Roast Dinner” option available on a Monday together with a selection of other meals to choose from.

We have a lovely “Specials Board” which changes daily, and includes not only our popular Belly Pork but something for everyone’s taste at reasonable prices.  Seasonal favourites are available too like pigeon, pheasant and game pie in the winter and lovely salads or pint-o-prawns in the warmer months.

And don't miss out on the desserts which include old favourites such as Treacle Tart, Bread and Butter Pudding and Spotted Dick, as well as a choice of Langage Farm ice creams and sorbets. We have ever changing guest ice creams together with Chef’s Homemade Dessert of the Day.

Click here for our lunchtime menu, here for our evening menu and here for a sample specials board menu.

Thinking of having a party then why not give us a ring, we have a lovely Buffet Menu which can be catered to your every need.

We have recently opened up the restaurant area to make it a more open dining area but if you just fancy a drink why not lounge in our comfortable settees next to our open fires.
