The Fox & Furrow

The Fox & Furrow

The Fox & Furrow is a country pub by day and a fireside inn by night, celebrating local ales, seasonal cooking and a proper welcome

Stay for a pint by the inglenook, Sunday lunch with the family or a night in one of our six rooms upstairs. Dogs, walkers and muddy boots are always welcome.

Good food + real ale + log fires = a proper pub.

Since 1642 · Kingsbrook, Oxfordshire

Welcome to the Fox & Furrow

For nearly four hundred years this has been where Kingsbrook meets: drovers on the road to Chipping Norton, ringers after practice, walkers off the Oxfordshire Way and families on a Sunday.

We took the keys in 2009 and kept everything that mattered: the flagstones, the fire, the snug and the Hooky. Then we added a kitchen that cooks from the farms around us and six rooms upstairs.

The best Sunday roast we’ve had in years. Yorkshire puddings the size of your head and a fire roaring in the snug.
