    I feel they were short staffed today or just very busy. The order took a long time to arrive and it was not hot. Couldn't wait any longer so didn't ask for it to be reheated. I had high expectations having been recommended to book but my male guests were disappointed at the amount of food on their plate and helped themselves to what I was leaving as I have a small appetite. On today's standards I will not be rebooking but I'm hoping it was just an off day for them. I want all pubs and restaurants to survive in these difficult times and don't like to leave a negative review. Every restaurant has these more challenging days.

    Food was tasty. We had Pork Belly, it was on special, and Venison Burger. The pork belly portion was small so not great value for money. Happy with my venison burger. Service was good, friendly, and the food did not take too long to come out which was great.

    A delicious Sunday Roast, in a vibrant yet relaxing atmosphere. Will absolutely come back and recommend this to our friends. We both had the miso aubergine with all the trimmings!! Lovely service, and lots of cute dogs.

    The bull is one of our favourite pubs for a nice lunch/dinner. The service was amazing, all of the waiters/waitresses were kind. It only took 20 minutes for our food to come out, which was yummy. We highly recommend this place.
