   After our last experience at The Bull I swore never to return however it seems to have been completely turned around, I even asked if it had changed hands! The roasts are now served directly from the kitchen instead of in the restaurant area, which is much better than having to queue. The ambiance is relaxed and organised, compared to the chaos of our last visit. Prices are a little too high, but I had a children's roast at £9.50 which was more than sufficient. Well done The Bull, can't wait to return!

   The food on New Years Day was incredible. Huge portions well presented and delivered to the table quickly. However it was New Years Day and the staff were all recovering from a heavy night and discussing their various experiences making a lot of noise. One chap was having a pint on his own and was told that the table was reserved at 1:30 so he left. At 1:30 some young friends of the bar staff arrived and sat drinking at the table.

   A disappointing experience. We felt we were being rushed, we’d ate there the previous Xmas and the food was a much lower standard. The crackers weren’t worth bothering with. It left us thinking that we’ll go elsewhere next time

   A meal for my sisters 60th was blighted by the fact the menu didn’t have any ribs left which a few of us wanted. They also forgot my brothers meal and the rest of us had all finished our meals by the time his arrived. We were not charged for his meal.

   I haven’t been to the Bull for a few months. There is a great improvement in the quality of the food, especially the fries.
