At The Bull, it’s all about the steak, and the steak is truly excellent. My ribeye was superb: top quality meat, perfectly seasoned and expertly cooked. My companion’s fillet was similarly impeccable. The dining room is cosy and welcoming, with the feel of a family-run operation. Wine choice is limited and pricey, although the silky-smooth house Malbec was admittedly delicious - and it needed to be, at £47 a bottle. Service was a bit sketchy (mains and sides for two arrived in three stages), but my five-star rating still stands, because at The Bull it’s all about the steak.
