    Lovely Sunday lunch, the roast beef was so tender and followed with an amazing sticky toffee pudding. Very welcoming staff and a lovely atmosphere.

    I’ve eaten at the Old Black Bull several times and the staff are extremely friendly and the food is always of the highest quality. Lots of choices and with a large majority of ingredients sourced locally.
