Very good food, Sunday dinner excellent. Roast and veggie meals eaten. Good friendly service and reasonably priced. A clean and tidy spot. Called back later to watch a game in the bar and have a few drinks, all staff and locals very friendly.

Not one vegan thing on the whole menu…. Maybe one or two items you could make vegan by removing certain ingredients but not easily. Come on - it’s 2024!

An appealing olde worlde style pub, definitely rustic style and nothing fancy, but the landlady was friendly, the service efficient and the beer kept well. You can't really ask for much more.

The Bull is a lovely old pub/restaurant. Met there for a get together with some friends. For the main course, I chose the hake, and although it was very tasty, it just consisted of some mash potato with a small bit of spinach in the middle of the mash, and a tiny piece of Hake on top with a couple of spring onions, covered in a creamy sauce. Was really nice but a very small dish and expensive for what you got, at nearly £17 for the one course! The dessert I had was banoffee pie and it was delicious. The waitress was lovely and attentive. Also felt a bit chilly in there.
