What our guests say
A few of our recent Google reviews
“New management/ownership has revived this pub. Food great, one of the best Sunday Roasts Ive had and generous starters. Garden is lovely with plenty of space and whole pub dog friendly, which is lovely after the great local walks.”

“I had a lovely lunch at The Bull today. It was a spur of the moment decision to go. The staff were attentive but not intrusive, the atmosphere was friendly and felt calm. I ordered lamb patties with a wonderful Greek salad. Followed by an indulgent dessert. The Bulls chocolate sundae. It was very yummy. I’ve been to The Bull a few times since it’s been under new management and every meal has been great.”
