Absolute disgusting treatment from the staff. We had a booking for 12 people including 7 children for a family meal before xmas, apparently a fake pot plant got knocked over so the staff stopped serving us at 8:30 and throw the plant across the bar area in a temper, we spent a lot of money there to be treated so disgusting. This is clearly not a family friendly place to take your children as you are treated so poorly. I would not recommend for a family or children or infact a group meal. Disgusting staff and treatment.

Disgusting treatment from the unprofessional staff! Not a family environment at all. The pub obviously only want particular customers which do not include children! Spend a lot of money to stop being served at 8:30 because you don’t fit in with their usual customer! Would never recommend this place and definitely not as a family! Rude unprofessional and average food. avoid!

What a gem the Nevill Bull is. Tucked away in Birling at the foot of the North Downs.My girlfriend and I had invited a Dutch friend for an evening meal. She now wants to make it a regular event , so good was the food, staff and atmosphere here. There was however an unsavoury table who tried to embarrass the staff but their impeccable professionalism quelled the situation before it escalated. Rest assured you are in good hands at The Nevill Bull

Parked here to do the Birling Community Trail walk - highly recommend. The pub is very spacious and attractive inside but we sat outside in a nice covered area. Food was plentiful and nicely presented and piping hot. Price was £37 for two large mains, half a pint of local beer, coke and a pint of lime and soda. Barman was friendly and helpful. We will be returning.

I visited with my partner for a meal out. I was looking forward to it as I read really good reviews. The place and staff are lovely, but the food was disappointing for the price you were paying. As a vegetarian, I opted for the Vegan Burger, which only consisted of the burger and some chips. Whilst my partner had a rack of ribs, chip, salad and slaw (completely filled the plate). However, I didn't realise till the bill came that my meal cost the exact same amount for half the amount of food (which also wasn't great quality). Also given that it wasn't meat, I would have expected it to be cheaper, but quite overpriced for what I got. Disappointed as it seems nice place.

Having lunched here midweek before, we thought we’d try Sunday lunch as the midweek lunch was so good. Unfortunately, that did not turn out to be the case. The menu choice was quite limited for choice in terms of a roast - Turkey, Beef or Gammon - Gammon? I choice turkey which was pretty good but the accompanying veg was not great. Cauliflower cheese was over cooked and the sauce on it was quite insipid. The roast potatoes were precooked and heated to serve and the remaining veg was very average. The Yorkshire pudding was good though. All in all, a bit of a disappointment tbh
