    Went to The Bull for our wedding anniversary and we weren’t disappointed. The service was excellent in this cosy little restaurant in Bisham. The Chateaubriand for two and the homemade dessert trolly were notable highlights of the evening. Will definitely return soon!

    What a gem of a place. Fantastic service, amazingly great food. Huge choice of dishes to keep everyone happy. The quality of the food was superb and portion size’s were big. The dessert trolly was a lovely touch. Everyone in the team worked really hard to make sure we had a brilliant time. We will definitely be returning soon.

    Disappointed with this visit. All previous reviews were extremely positive and we were looking forward to eating in the Bull Inn. Positives include very attentive staff and the 2 course dinner option for £19.50 was good value for money as the second course was the same as a main meal. However the food did not match the online reviews. My leak and potato soup was very watery and my partner’s poached chicken was tough in places. Side vegetables were over cooked and a bit mushy. Overall, the Bull Inn is a historic old inn serving quality food by attentive staff.

FAQs

Yes, The Bull Inn Bisham is a cosy, intimate spot that’s well suited to date night. Guests frequently praise the warm, traditional ambience, attentive service and the old‑world touches like the dessert trolley. The menu focuses on classic French and continental dishes with an extensive wine list, making it easy to craft a special evening. For a quieter experience, book an early table or a weekday booking; for a lively night choose a weekend when the atmosphere is more bustling.

Portions are generally generous, many guests comment on large, hearty plates (roasts and mains are described as plentiful). A few recent visits noted smaller portions or changes in size for certain dishes, so portions can vary. If portion size matters to you (for sharing or a big appetite), guests often mention the dessert trolley and large mains as highlights, consider ordering a starter and main or asking staff for guidance.

The Bull Inn Bisham is open for lunch Monday–Friday 12:00–14:15 and Sunday 11:45–14:15, and for dinner Monday–Saturday 18:30–22:15. If you’re planning a special occasion or a busy weekend, book ahead, guests frequently mention busy evenings and popular Sunday lunches.

Family-friendly: yes, guests regularly bring family groups, celebrate birthdays and enjoy Sunday lunches together. The Bull has both a comfortable bar area and a dining room, so you can choose a more relaxed or formal spot. Accessibility details (ramps, step-free access, etc.) aren’t specified in available information, so if you need mobility accommodations it’s best to call ahead and ask the team to confirm.

For a lively, traditional experience try weekend evenings or Sunday lunch, many guests rave about the roast Sunday lunch and the bustling, friendly atmosphere. If you prefer a quieter meal, opt for weekday lunch or an early weekday evening when the restaurant is calmer. Wherever you go, reservations are recommended, especially for special occasions or larger groups.

The restaurant offers both a comfortable bar area and a main dining room, both of which guests say are welcoming. The setting is described as cosy and traditional, ideal for dinners or more relaxed bar dining. The owner information notes it’s a family‑run, intimate venue, the restaurant does not advertise private party rooms and the owner data indicates private parties and large parties are not accepted, so contact them if you have a specific seating request.

Warm, traditional and slightly old‑world, guests often describe a relaxed, cosy atmosphere with attentive staff and classic service. Many enjoy the ‘retro’ charm (including the dessert trolley and table flambés mentioned by guests) and praise the unobtrusive, quiet setting with no loud music. Expect a family‑run, French‑influenced dining experience that feels special without being pretentious.

The dress code is casual dress. Guests typically report a relaxed but smart atmosphere, many come for special occasions and still dress nicely, but there’s no formal requirement, so smart casual attire is perfectly appropriate.

Yes, while specific policies aren’t listed, The Bull is a family‑run restaurant known for attentive service, so calling ahead with dietary needs, seating preferences or celebration requests is recommended. Guests often remark on helpful staff and tailored service for birthdays and anniversaries, so the team should be happy to help if you contact them in advance.

Families do dine here and guests frequently celebrate birthdays and come with teens, so it’s family‑friendly in practice. The menu is large and traditional rather than focused on kids’ dishes, there’s no menu information showing a dedicated children’s menu, and options for vegans/vegetarians are reported as limited. For young children consider an early seating and call ahead to ask about menu flexibility.

Busiest: weekend evenings and Sunday lunch, many guests note lively service, full dining rooms and excellent Sunday roasts. Quietest: weekday lunches and early weekday evenings are generally calmer and better for a relaxed meal. If you prefer low noise and more attentive service, aim for off‑peak weekday times and make a reservation to secure a preferred table.

Sunday is a standout, guests repeatedly praise the Sunday roast and the relaxed Sunday‑lunch atmosphere. For a lively night out choose a weekend evening; for a quieter visit or a business lunch, weekdays (especially lunch) are better. Ultimately pick Sunday for a classic roast and weekends for a bustling, traditional dining experience.
