We popped in on the way home to Oxford from Cheltenham and found the pub available for a table under the search 'cosy pub near Burford' It didn't disappoint. We had a lovely welcome, table for two in the bar area and the fire was lit so it was very cosy. A nice warm pub considering it was below freezing outside. There were a number of dishes on the specials board and I went for the calves liver while my husband had the pie. The food was carefully prepared, exceeded expectations and very delicious. There were a good selection of drinks and I enjoyed a glass of Marlborough wine while my teetotal husband had a diet coke. The atmosphere was nice cos there were candles, the fire and not too noisy. A perfect stop off for dinner on our journey home. Would definitely recommend. NB I'm gluten free and there was a good selection of choices.

We offer a humble menu of traditional home-cooked pub dishes, using the best local producers and seasonal ingredients.

Great first visit to the Fox at Barrington, wished we had been before. With friendly professional staff and excellent food, both by me and my partner very much enjoyed the experience . The Inn itself has Cotswolds character with a contemporary twist. Will definitely be back on our next trip to The Cotswolds

About the restaurant

The Flowing Well is a cracking pub in the pretty Oxfordshire village of Sunningwell.
It has been sympathetically refurbished adding warmth and colour to give a welcoming relaxed feel. We'd like you to think of it as home from home. After all it is the pub of a thousand locals. You can be one of them!

We serve good honest food, as seasonal and local as possible. We don't skimp on quality, freshness or flavour. Our selection of burgers is legendary. Our pies are phenomenal and our British tapas are on everybody's lips!

We will serve you well at The Well.

We had the Christmas set menu so hard to say what the food is like overall. We will go again definitely to have a calmer experience as Christmas was just too full on for us. The staff were absolutely brilliant, went over and above to help with anything.
