Great food, nice atmosphere and the steak is DIVINE! Highly recommend the steak sharing platter.

Food was ok, plenty of it. Some elements didn’t appear to be home made but still good quality. Roast Beef was tough but tasted good. Staff were efficient and service good. Lovely venue. Unfortunately was cold due to boiler broken would have been good to know prior to going as would have worn thicker jumpers. Hence 2 stars for atmosphere otherwise would have been a solid 4.

We had walked from Abingdon with two very grumpy toddlers and a dog to find we had booked the wrong dining area! The dog-friendly area was full but, seeing the desperate faces on the parents, the staff were able to find us a spot. The service was great and the food was excellent - best chicken burger ever! Thanks so much to all the staff who made a stressful day out a little more bearable!

We had our work Christmas party here recently. The staggered incredibly friendly, food was great. Can't comment on the prices, as the company paid...

Went in for lunch. The staff are all really friendly and welcoming. I'd say it was a poor day in the kitchen. I chose a classic burger - it was very over cooked and dry. I didn't say anything at the time so my fault. Anyway, maybe I'll try again another time.

Lovely place with great food and good customer service. The only issue is that the place needs a slope for wheelchairs and others who can not use the

Had a lovely work meal here, held in a separate section of the pub. Food was delicious, Diet Coke tasted a little odd and had some difficulty achieving “no ice” on a not particularly warm evening, but otherwise the service was great: both friendly and attentive. Really enjoyed the meal overall and would gladly return in the future with my family. That’s partly because I wanted the cheesecake for pudding, so did my colleague next to me, and there was only one left! I think she enjoyed it and I had a very nice Black Forest profiterole instead. For main, I had the classic burger and fries that were both spot on. The side of onion rings were the pre-made ones with the oniony doughy stuff in the middle rather than slices of onion, so I wouldn’t order those again, but appreciate that could well be a personal choice aspect and it didn’t take away from the overall very pleasant visit.Parking: Decent sized car park though with all of us there I could tell it was quite busy and there weren’t obviously an abundance of spaces. Could be more hidden away (it was very dark) but if the place were really busy it felt like parking could be a challenge.

Lovely summer evening enjoyed at the Flowing Well with friends. Great service with great food matches the great venue.

Amazing food, had something off the specials menu, staff were friendly, the only downside was how quiet it was, lovely place, cosy, rustic, nice decor, clean, will definitely recommend and return

Well worth a visit..I arrived tired and frazzled..had a quick nap wash and change then went in for the best fish chips n mushy peas I've had in a long time..plus a fine pint of Guinness and think any of the meals on their extensive menu would be just as tasty?Staff were friendly (as were the locals) and helpful and premises were clean. I stayed overnight in the car park and had an excellent quiet night. Please note stopovers Monday-Thursday only as so busy.

Excellent sunday roast - Lamb shank was very good and all others enjoyed the beef and chicken roasts. Would have been even better if my daughter could have had choice other than just a half roast beef and the pigs in blankets were not crispy / browned. Service was also good and prompt.

Poor service and no customer care.Finally ended up Walking out after food order got messed up which was the final straw after having a whole glass of red wine split over me and I booked a table to be seated in the restaurant area and was seated in the bar area! Very poor and won’t be going back!Parking: Shame as a great location, but that’s about it!
