My husband and i were visiting Kirkby Lonsdale and called into The Snooty Fox as we saw a meal deal menu board outside. On going inside it seemed dark and rather gloomy, however we decided to have a drink and choose our meal deal. I chose pate and toast, my husband chose the soup of the day. The pate was obviously just a chunk of shop bought average quality,and the toast was barely toasted. The soup was also only average. For our next course we had both chosen fish and chips with peas. As soon as the plates were put on the table we both commented on how greasy the fish looked. We tried to eat the battered fish but the grease was overpowering, on removing the batter there was a tiny piece of poor quality fish in yet more grease! The waitress came across and asked if everything was alright with our meal and we said " no it was too greasy", she said she would tell her boss the landlord. Eventually we decided we could look at this greasy platter no more and so finished our drinks and put on our jackets. The landlord came across to clear our plates and on seeing the unfinished hardly eaten meals asked us if our meal had been ok? On telling him that no it had been awful and far to greasy to eat, his only reply was to say that he "would tell the chef"! There was no apology and no offer of any refund! We had wasted £20.00 in total and don't want other travelers to waste their money.
