The Bull at Broughton Astley in Harborough - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fantastic anniversary Dinner. First time there the food and staff were lovely. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Kory and all the staff we'll be back

First time at The Bull, excellent service & food.

Very nice meal Friendly staff first time there but will definitely go again

Slightly expensive but you pay for what you get. The food is not your normal standard of pub food, it's what you would expect in a top restaurant

Took out the family for a spot of lunch. Had herd good things about The Bull, well they where not wrong. Staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Food was great, and 1 of us isn't easily pleased, even they where happy. Already planning our next trip there.

Brilliant food, nice and cool inside with all the windows open but plenty of outside seating too. Great friendly staff and good value! Thank you

Brilliant service and food as normal 🥂

A lovely evening, Kate who served us was fantastic

We came here last night fir my birthday and just wanna say what a beautiful place beautiful atmosphere gorgeous food fantastic service the young lady who looked after us was amazing highly recommend and will definitely be back xx

Lovely food and atmosphere. Just a shame that sometimes the waiters were a little rude an abrupt when spoken to, like asking for sauce or a drink.

Our server James made our visit really enjoyable. We missed the carvery as we were not aware it was only served until 6pm. We shall be back for the carvery again soon.

Great place for a drink. Have eaten here today for the first time with my granddaughter. Will not be eating here again. The only good thing about the food is the chips. Staff are great.

Great for the kids with two bouncy castles to keep them entertained

Had my 60th birthday celebrations with my family a truly wonderful day 💕 food was superb...waiter was so polite...table seats we're spot on ...would highly recommend this pub 👌 THANK YOU 🐃

Food was decent, above average but not exceptional, staff were friendly and effective. Although it may not be a chain it feels as soul-less as a chain.

On a hot day i wanted a drink somewhere nice to cool off and this place was recommended to me by colleagues and friends... after sitting in a beautiful garden by a stream i changed my plans and decided to have lunch... just wow amazing food amazing prices ... the staff are friendly and welcoming and the place itself is huge seen lots of families enjoying the garden will definitely be going back...

Excellent food at reasonable prices. Good range of local ales on offer.

Another great meal at the Bull, came here for the second time, nice friendly staff, good atmosphere, meals very good 😊 fantastic service by Morgan very tentative, the things we asked were done straight away even offered us two lots of steak knives 🔪 lol 😂. Well done would recommend, good food good value. All staff working very to keep the place moving and also very clean staff keeping the outside ground clean, no glasses piled up on outside tables very good to see. A big well done to the Bull staff 10/10. ,

Lovely pub, with friendly staff. The food and drink selection is good, and when the weather is on your side, you can sit outside with the sound of the stream gently lapping by you. Well worth a visit.

Lovely food, friendly, helpful , knowledgeable staff

Best place in Broughton Astley!!!!

Enjoyed a meal in the garden as we had our dog with us. Food was delicious especially the burgers. Service was good too.

Our party of four really enjoyed their meals. All of the food was exceptionally well cooked, presented, and served. The staff were extremely helpful and polite. Will definitely be returning to this and other pubs of the same chain. Prices were reasonable as well.

Hadn't booked but managed to fit us in although extremely busy. Staff very pleasant and food good.

Favourite for Sunday carvery! and love the fact they have a dog friendly area.

Beautiful place staff were very friendly and polite will definitely go back again

Didn't go in there. Just passed by so can't say much.

Again we enjoyed another late afternoon meal. At a good price. We will be back.

Thought classier than the lime tree .. but sadly no different. Full of chavs with tats sat without tshirts as a nice day yesterday, so they thought this was appropriate. Whilst they let their kids kick footballs around other people's tables and at the neighbouring houses fence panels. Dogs off the lead and filthy tables not cleared of glasses and plates. Not for us.

Olly ,superb service went above and beyond. Super professional with a great smile. Made our time special. Thank you Olly 😊

First time visiting for a family meal and I would highly recommend. Friendly staff great food and drink. Outside space also looks great for the summer.

Really busy but there were plenty of competent staff. Our meals were really well prepared and above average quality for a pub meal. Drinks were a bit pricey but that's probably just me

We've visited The Bull a few times recently and would highly recommend eating here. Easy parking, very relaxed, clean, and the tables are spaced nicely. There's a lovely stream that runs along side of the restaurant, which is very nice to see if you sit by the windows. The food is very good, especially the Sunday carvery, and all of the staff are 100% polite, professional, and always smiling! Keep uo thevgreqt work all the staff at The Bull!

Had a super Sunday at the pub celebrating a family birthday. 20 of us. All was fantastic. Thanks 👍

A great pub. Staff are always friendly and the food is good. There is a good choice on the menu. Good value and a nice place to visit.

Lovely food drink and atmosphere

Visited on Easter Sunday. Nice entrance way across the stream and very light, airy and modern inside - good selection of tables and comfy seating all round. Seated and attended to very promptly and in a timely manner throughout. Great menu and all reasonably priced. Settled on the carvery pretty quickly and was not disappointed. All felt freshly cooked and not mass produced. Good choice of desserts too. Overall a great place for food. Will definitely return when we're back this way visiting family again.

1st visit here. Good food at reasonable price and attentive staff

Had lunch here with my wife. Unfortunately was waiting 40 minutes after ordering, still no food. The only reason this review is 3 star ⭐⭐⭐ and not 1 star ⭐. Is due to how they handled my complaint about keeping us waiting 40 minutes. The waiter had taken our order but forgotten to give to kitchen. He came to us explained his mistake & apologised. He took ownership of his mistake without excuses. Then retook our order & guaranteed our food would be on our table is 10 minutes. Plus we would eat for free (no charge). The food was very well prepared & cooked. Enjoyed the taste & flavours very much. The atmosphere was lovely very well presented. As you walk in to restaurant outside there is a little foot bridge. That crosses over a stream, which is a very nice. Will eat here again & hopefully I can give them 5 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐.

Went for mother's day meal. Going more often due to quality. I had beef bordelaise (not had before) - very impressed with how tender and moist it was. Feel this is a place that reliably produces good food and drinks very well priced. All in all will be back soon.

Lovely place it always has a really nice atmosphere, very popular, service is great and we really enjoy the food.

Great food, staff attentive without over doing it. Very friendly, Great atmosphere. Been before but year ago. Will be visiting more often thankyou

Lovely food, we had a great time! And a huge thank you to our waitress Megan who was so lovely and helpful!

A lovely lunch.... well presented, staff very attentive lovely atmosphere 👌

Cracking food. Top Sunday lunch...

Great food at great prices. Tried The Waterside at Mountsorrel, Axe and Square, Limetree and now The Bull all owned by the same people and all of them have been excellent. Staff are all very well trained. Hopefully they will take a few more pubs over.

Just had a beautiful carvery here with some of my family, we all very much enjoyed every bite. We will definitely be back again.

Had my son-in-laws stag party here. Food was excellent as was our server and all the staff i encountered. Will definitely return with the ladies of our family.

Lovely food, good price, nice surroundings, drinks could have arrived a bit quicker but other than that all very nice

I got the steak, and usually going to a pub the steak preference is always wrong, i ordered a medium rare and it was one of the best steaks ive had, i would recommend this place to many! My boyfriend had just the burger and fries cannot say how good they are and i would definatley come back prices are great too! Fab place and waiters are fab too cant do enough for you! Defo a spot to go to

We had a lovely afternoon at The Bull. It was a family get together. The food, staff and atmosphere really made this. Our waiter was so informative

Great service and lovely food. Now established as our favourite when visiting the area.

Excellent service & customer focused staff. Always trying to accommodate each customer. Every person trusted with total respect. We eat there 2 to 3 times a week. Thank you all.

Lovely meal, lovely staff, lovely atmosphere 😊

We had lunch here 18/01/2024, first time we had been to the Bull in 4 years, and what a change. The food was excellent, the service was excellent and they couldnt do enough for you, unlike our visit 4 years ago. The new owners have transformed the decor and lay out and is now a comfy and welcoming atmosphere. We will be going back soon

Just enjoyed a light lunch. Food tasted good and great customer service

The place was nice, but not brilliant. The main problem was the price of the food and drink, (£8.50 for a white wine spritzer). We won't be going there again.

A reliable independent chain. Good range of food on the menu. Prices reasonable. Have never had a bad meal here

Just been for lunch. Fillet steak and mixed grill. Food was gorgeous and cooked to perfection. Staff friendly and welcoming. We will be definitely returning. Carvery looked really good as well. Brilliant 👏

Nipped in for Sunday lunch on the off chance for a table for 4, busy but they managed to squeeze us in for an hours slot, will definitely book next time. 2 of us had the carvery and 2 off the menu so catered for everyone’s taste food was delicious and service excellent.

Great restaurant, I would like to point out that most who go for the carvery need some etiquette, mind you the area and surrounding areas don't know what that means, when you help your self, don't load your plate like you've been on survivor for a month, and no dogy bags to take what you couldn't eat, you will be charged double.

Lovely food n drinks and service

We went as a family for Boxing Day, last sitting of the day and had a fantastic dinner, huge portions of well prepared food including deserts. Wonderful staff too. Thank you.

We went for our Christmas dinner and it was absolutely amazing!, there was plenty of food and it was lovely and hot and so tasty!! And the service was brilliant you didn’t want for a thing and we were sent home with a lovely little box of treats, absolutely amazing!!😃

Previous visit had been great but Christmas Dinner was a huge disappointment and certainly not worth what was charged. The turkey was dry and tastless so much so it reminded me of school dinners. Roast potatoes while looking crispy were in fact soft as if they had been left in a hot plate for ages as were the parsnips . The best part of the main course was the carrots. I've had better at a Sunday carvery which would have been far cheaper.

Excellent festive fayre meal. Lovely environment and very pleasant staff.

Superb meal yet again. Delicious food and great service

Not fine dining but good food with excellent service! Lovely big table for a family birthday 🙂🎉

Great food and service. One of my favorite places in the local area

Lovely food and great service. Handled our party of 15+ excellently

always good beer, friendly staff and tasty food.

It was a perfect place to finish a very sad day thanks Jane

Very nice pub, service was fantastic and good fun

A bit chaotic service but food is good

Absolutely a great diner to go for. The food was delicious and with big portions. Very reasonable price. Superb service and I really like the spacious but cozy ambience in the restaurant. Highly recommended.

Very good value Sunday carvery served by friendly cheerful young staff.

Excellent food. Highly recommended the mixed grill. Will be back to try the carvery.

Favourite pub in Leicestershire! Every-time at The Bull we always have an amazing experience. The food is really good quality, wide ranges of dishes and desserts. Our personal favourites is the Mixed Grill, Eton Mess and Surf & Turf. Staff are always happy to help, so friendly and fast service in the restaurant. We really benefit with the pub having one side of the pub dedicated to being dog friendly! Definitely worth a visit! 😁

Amazing food , staff friendly and organised, good parking, definitely returning 5*

Just visited the bull with a 90th birthday the food was amazing thank you all at the bull dave

Great Pub , Good Prices , Excellent food

Nice meal for 4 adults on a weekday lunch. The pub was surprisingly busy so I would recommend calling before going. Food was tasty and hot, service was great.

Lovely Sunday lunch loved the idea of Sunday roast as a buffet, it was amazing, with great staff and a great atmosphere, deserts are superb, we often visit.

Just popped in for a quick drink.

Really tasty meal. My chicken was nice and moist and the steak was cooked exactly as requested. Will be back in future 👌

Great food reasonable prices beer excellent would return

exquisite food every time i come here with the family, lovely crew especially one of the chefs who assisted me in the carvery, kinder cookie dough is to die for!!

Good food even though in a group of 40.

Excellent staff, excellent food

Food was top notch and the staff were excellent. Mum was choking and the staff were so quick to respond

The food is delicious! Staff are very friendly and welcoming

Have a great time in a great place!

Billy really looked after us. Great service

What a beautiful place to eat, we sat by the doors with the stream run just outside the door, the food was good, had better steak, the staff were amazing x

Staff are always very pleasant and food is lovely aswell as great value. Billy has served us on a number of occasions now and is always helpful

I was really impress with the service today I got what I wanted and the staff were lovely I’d 100% be coming back again

Bought a Thank-you meal for 2 elderly friends last night. One ordered the Newyork chicken which was so overcooked it was really hard to cut. Each mouthful looked a real task to eat. I had the cod and chips and was disappointed to find the fish coated in Chinese style batter, so thick it was 'claggy' inside. It did make the fish look much bigger than the modest portion it was. That said, the chips were great, the staff were helpful and friendly and the atmosphere great.

No booking, looked busy, but seated at a quiet table for 2 by a very polite member of staff. Drink order taken quickly whilst perusing the menu. All in all a great experience, highly recommend.

Food came out in a timely manner. Service was poor looked understaffed. Place is a bit grubby and we asked for a cloth and cleaner at the bar so we could wipe down our own dirty table. Not sorry to hear that, let me follow you out and get that sorted out for you.

Went for Sunday lunch food was very good as was the service
