The Bull Bracknell in Bracknell Forest

Great pub, food and drinks always good.All the staff are fantastic Highly recommend. Try the spicy mayo and skinny fries.

Best pint in Bracknell. Staff are all friendly. Worth a visit. Thanks Jane for service with a smile. Scotch eggs and wings are amazing

We choose this for celebratory anniversary lunch because had lovely lunch previous week. However this was not to be repeated! Despite booking for 2.30pm when we arrived we were told there would be wait for food for at least 30 mins…this wasn’t too bad but it turned out to be nearly 1 hour 30mins. When food eventually arrived it was over cooked and roast potatoes that couldn’t even be cut as so over cooked. The manager apologised offered us complimentary desserts (which were lovely) and said she’d talk to us about the bill. Sadly her shift finished before she spoke with us again and she had deducted 20% off bill. Although that was appreciated it didn’t really cover the inconvenience and poor quality of the meal but there wasn’t much we could do or say then and so just paid the bill. As we left we noticed the same manager sitting in the bar so maybe for the sake of customer service she could have come and spoken to us prior to finishing her shift. It certainly was not the anniversary lunch we were hoping for at such a nice venue.

Rather disappointed. First time eating here and don't think I will bother again. friend and I ordered lunch and waited over 40minutes for food to appear. A waitress came over and said did either of you order a burger I replied yes and she said oh we had wrong table and brought my food over. I asked where my friends food was as we ordered at the same time it was only a sandwich. Was advised by her it was just being finished. No apologies about the confusion and I explained it was our first time in the pub and she didn't really care no apology for lack of service!!! My burger was lukewarm but by this time I couldn't be bothered telling them as the staff obviously couldn't care less. It seemed they had our money so that's where the service ended. Won't bother again as slightly expensive.

Walked in very strange atmosphere. Not very welcoming staff. Dirty tables everywhere, even though not that busy. We were going to eat but changed our minds had a drink and left, never to return but doubt the staff give a damn

Fantastic place, food was amazing, great atmosphere and the staff were nice, bit slow on the bar service but otherwise great place! Definitely be going back

A cracking wee place for a drink and food. Buffalo wings are a must.

Private Room for a Baby Shower which went really well. Had a buffet and only thing missing was serving spoons for the salad and chips otherwise no complaints at all. Adam was very helpful and attentive so all good.

Go here for all of our birthday celebrations. Genuinely nothing bad to say about the place.

Overall was ok. But we were seated in the couches near the corner, where we have 2 little ones. So they were sat very low. Checked if we could move tables, but no other options available unfortunately. Were offered cushions but just wasn't entirely practical. So my 4year old and 2yr old had to be on their knees for the meal to be able to get to their food. The 2 waitresses weren't very attentive either, we had to go up to them to get attention because when we were sat at the table, waving, trying to get eye contact, noone would look in our direction. We weren't offered any kids colouring bits when we arrived. Asked for starters and mains to come all together so kids didn't have to wait, but waitresses admitted she forgot to mention that point to the kitchen. so starters came, and had to wait a bit before mains came out. In addition, when trying to get attention for the bill, that took ages as well. Just noone looked in our direction, despite all of us practically waving for attention. Also I arranged a cake for my mother's birthday. But the waitress unfortunately dug her finger into the side of the cake when she put it down. She did apologise but it's just not a pleasant experience. Real shame because we've wanted to try the bull for ages now, and thought it would be a perfect, but after last nights experience, won't be coming back again. Overall impression was not attentive.

It's a shame that a 12.5% discretionary service chargre is added to the bill, and not given on the pay machine as an option, not knowing if the tip has gone to the individual staff member, shared between staff or to the companies back pocket. Back in the day, this was how waiters / waitresses made up their salary, but with minimum wage introduced, it shouldn't be a thing anymore. Our waitress, Katie had a lovely walming smile and attitude, whilst I treated mum to a Sunday lunch.

Had a fab breakfast here with family that came down from up north very friendly good prices and quality food 👌

The staff were fantastic here, and the food was excellent. It's a must if you are in town

Food was lovely once it was correct. 1 meal came out wrong so we didn't get to eat together as one would have got cold. Staff not that friendly. No atmosphere. Won't go again shame as looks lovely from outside.

We held a private function in one of the rooms upstairs, staff were super helpful before and during our event. Food was great, drinks were served regularly and the staff were lovely!

Had a lovely family meal most of us had Sunday roast food was nice but small portions for the money. So we thought it was a bit expensive and they put a service charge on top Staff were friendly.

Lovely venue, great staff and good beer.

Excellent in every way. Our Barman was welcoming, friendly and efficient. Food was lovely, plentiful, and sensibly priced. Seating was comfortable, and spacious. Even the music was to our taste and at a perfect volume, you could hear it but also enjoy your conversation. Definitely happy to return here next time I’m in Bracknell.

Great bar/pub! Probably the best in Bracknell, a large selection of drinks, reasonable prices and they also serve food, which smelled fantastic but I didn't order any so can't comment on that. Location is great, right in the centre next to the row of restaurants in the Lexicon, within walking distance from the main train station, staff are very friendly and there are plenty of seating options, including small and large tables, big comfortable sofas and quiet secluded tables, you can also choose to sit in the old style Victorian pub section or the modern upscale bar area, cannot fault this place at all! Yes it's more expensive than a wetherspoons, but you're not just paying for a drink, you're paying for quality service, comfort and atmosphere, all of which you get an abundance of at the Bull! Highly recommended

I booked a large table for a suprise birthday party for drinks, but we had a great table, staff attentive and helpful, I had previously been to the pub before and thought it was a place to just eat and go, but atmosphere really suprised us and we had a great time! Thanks Team Bull

In amongst the modern shopping centre experience there's a little oasis called the Bull. Serving both hungry and thirsty punters the very best fayre. The Bull, no BS. The bollox.

Best bar staff in Bracknell, very friendly and give a lovely vibe to the bar

On the positive side, the guy at the bar who took our order was pleasant.... Where to start on the negatives? Slow, poor quality, overpriced, stingy portions.

Good food , amazing cocktails and fast service. What else do you need?

Food was lovely. Nice place to eat. Very clean. Really welcoming! The price of food was great for what we ordered. Staff were very friendly .

Often stop here for a drink when in Bracknell .. lovely staff ... ive tried the bar food.. wings.. scotch eggs and the sausage roll.. all very nice.. i would recommend

I recently visited The Bull Pub and I must say, I was absolutely blown away by the incredible food and outstanding customer service. The burgers were juicy and flavorful, the fries were perfectly crispy, and the famous Scotch egg was a true delight. Not only was the food top-notch, but the customer service was exceptional. The staff were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of fantastic. The local was also clean and had a great atmosphere. It was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal with friends or family. Overall, I highly recommend The Bull Pub to anyone looking for a great meal and a wonderful dining experience. I will definitely be returning in the future!

Excellent! A lovely bar/eaterie in the centre of Bracknell new town centre. We only visited for a few drinks, a great atmosphere, friendly staff who offer good service. Worth a visit.

Friendly staff, nice food (food all a bit overly complicated thou - pub or fine dining- make your mind up) and a good atmosphere.

The staff at The Bull (Adam, Dawid, Kuba, Natalie, Kamil) were very welcoming, looked after me and my friend, and we would recommend this place to everyone!!!!!

There was a group us that had a meal together and we were given the private dinning area for no extra charge. All the staff were friendly and very welcoming. I can Highly recommend and will be booking more events very soon.

Went here for a breakfast and it was lovely. Staff and food are lovely.

The size of the food portions were tiny especially for the price we paid. We had to find our own table in the end as no one came to welcome us. There wasn’t much dessert options so we didn’t bother getting one

Food was fantastic, we had the chorizo scotch egg and sharing camambert for starters, chicken, bacon and leak pie and gammon, egg and chips for main, ate the lot! Will definitely be back again!

Visited the Bull after Cineworld trip. Booked for 6.45pm on a Friday though not that busy. Ordered at bar, good beer selection and food delicious with excellent service. Good option after a movie.

The was was delicious and the waitress were very nice. Friendly and kind. The place itself is amazing I totally enjoyed my lunchtime!

Our server Jane is such a nice person always willing to help and being nice to chat with. Everything is just perfect! Highly recommend!

We held a paint party hen do in one of the event rooms The Bull has. The team were exceptionally helpful, communicating with Jade via email in the lead up to the event, no request or question went unanswered. On the day Katie was there to welcome us and made sure it all ran smoothly and everyone was very complimentary!

Staff were very friendly accommodating and efficient……

A nice pub in the centre of Bracknell town Lexicon.

Great place for lunch with family

Overpriced. bar staff flirting with each other was seriously annoying.

Came in the other day and waited 10 mins to get served, I seen one of the women who worked there sitting around talking with no reaction. After some time a gent showed up and i finally got served, all i wanted it is a soda and lime not a hard drink to cook up!

Sophie was wonderful, very caring and looked after our big group which was upstairs

I came here today to have a few pints but have eaten before, Tami made the experience very pleasant and David’s service was fast and amazing. Both amazing staff members will come again

Very profesional bar service!!! Thank you to Tami, Dawid, and Adam

Jane was a real super star and looked after us and our four legged friends. Really attentive and friendly. Exactly what we needed

Visited the Bull at that weekend with my mum for lunch. Our server Katie was amazing, very attentive and kind with a great sense of humour. She accommodated our requests with our lunch to no fault, going above and beyond to make sure the meal was perfect for both of us. Katie was brilliant and I will be visiting again with the hope of being served by her again! Go Katie! :D

What can I say. The service was out of this world, was beginning to think I was on planet Mars. Big shout out to my waiter Jarek. So friendly, kind and funny too. Jarek was on fire with his quick one liner jokes had myself and the family in stitches with laughter. The atmosphere really came to life because of Jarek, even so kind to ask politely to take a selfie with me, because I’ve done a few sci-fi movies which Jarek is a big fan of. Honestly couldn’t think of a nicer person and who truly goes the extra mile and then some for the customer. If you find yourself at the bull in Bracknell and Jarek is your waiter, you’re in luck. If the the bull does the employee of the month award I’d like to nominate Jarek.

I went to the bull last week, food was lovely. Service from Jarek brilliant 👏. Very nice place, we will get back soon

i was with my family and the bull was an amazing place, we had this waitress called sophie and she ever so pleasant she helped us the whole time and made sure our night was special what a wonderful young lady, also very good atmosphere to be in. thank you guys for a lovely evening.

**Pub Review: The Bull** **Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)** Situated in the heart of the city, The Bull is a delightful pub that seamlessly combines a warm, rustic atmosphere with top-notch service and an impressive menu. It’s a place where both regulars and newcomers feel right at home, thanks in no small part to its outstanding staff, particularly Jarek, who makes every visit memorable.

what a lovely place to eat and be at the food was excellent and staff were so good, i came with my friends for food and drinks the steak was cooked to perfection and the passion fruit martini was excellent i would definitely visit again but mainly because of sophie our time there was amazing she delivered our drinks and food and made sure we were all okay before she left she kept a smile on her face and spoke so politely.

Three of us had a gathering last night for a catch-up reunion after knowing each other since we were 18. One of us has a disability and needs a wheelchair. We were shown to our table with help moving some chairs, and once seated, a lovely lady called Katie came to take out the order. She pleasantly said it usually’s ordering at the bar, but as it’s a bit quiet now, I’ll take your order from the table, and that’s where the bar was set. We had such lovely service with a smile; she couldn’t have done more for us. I gave three stars for the atmosphere. Unfortunately, it was a bit quiet in the bar, which served its purpose for us because it meant that we could talk and hear each other. There was excellent music in the background that was reminiscent for us, so it was, all in all, a fabulous night. Thank you all so much, and Hi particularly thank you to Katie.

Last week I was in the pub and Jarek was very helpful and delivered amazing customer service

Lovely food and great service especially Jarek and Summer who went above and beyond.

Great service, huge thanks to Jarek who served us last week.

We went here for a hen do lunch, the table was booked for 15 of us. We did have to delay this by 30mins due to a previous activity running over but I felt the service was awful. We waited just over an hour for food, and that was just for the 3 starters. We asked the kids food come out first which didn't happen. At this point we just told them to bring out the rest of the food, of which came out as and when it was ready. It took ages for them to clear plates and empty glasses. We went up individual to order our food and pay at the time. I felt that they had our money and didn't care about the table after that. The food was ok, not great. Not that it was the fault of the restaurant but there was someone that came in begging, placed a bit of paper on the table with writing and when we said no she went but it wasn't until after that we realised that she had stolen a phone from one of us that she place the paper on top of. Be careful everyone! over all it wasnt a great experience and would not book a big group here again.

I organised a surprise birthday meal for my partner's 40th birthday with all of his family. We all had such a lovely time and my partner was so happy and surprised. Our waitress Katie was lovely and always came to check on us. The food was outstanding as was the service. We will definitely be booking here for future functions. Thank you!

I just want to say a massive thank you to the team at The Bull, especially Jane! I contacted the team a week before my little boys first birthday as I was having a few issues with the original venue I booked. Jane got back to me very quickly and offered me there private room. The room was perfect! It meant I could have the intimate celebration with our loved ones, as if we were at home, but without the washing up. There were a few hit and misses with the food but they were extremely busy so we weren’t too bothered. The service was incredible and although we were away from the rest of the restaurant, we were very well looked after. I couldn’t have wished for a more perfect day! Thank you to everyone for helping me make my son’s first birthday so special!!

Really didn't enjoy our experience, slow service and no communication. Was being rude behind our backs, and food was okay but not worth the price.

Lovely food - best vege burger I’ve had in ages!

Fabulous food, Katie was so pleasant and helpful, fabulous customer service. We had 7 in our party and everyone enjoyed our meals so much. We come in here every Saturday for our breakfast as their breakfasts are the best in town.

Popped in for a drink with the first very warm welcome Jane was super friendly and Ian cooked the most amazing food

Great food, scotch eggs a must. Jane was lovely and attentive. Thank you

Amazing food and great service by Jane Recommend the sausage rolls and scotch eggs … definitely coming back as we sat in the sunshine on the terrace

I haven’t tried the food but always looks good to be fair. Also usually pop in midday early/late afternoon But a great pub. Dog friendly which always means good people and the necessary pet to the pooch) A nice friendly comfortable atmosphere

Didn't have any food but met up for drinks with friends and good variety of drinks and 2 outside spaces for those sunny events. Well worth a visit .

Food was sooo yummy ! Katie was super lovely and very attentive. Will definitely recommend and come again :)

This was the first time at the Bracknell Bull Pub for me and my wife on our 26 anniversary and I would like to thank Jane and kamill for a great service and gorgeous food and would highly recommend.

Had a work meeting in their upstairs room. Team were super helpful and the sandwich buffet great value and really tasty. Room was great for the meeting

Great meal and really looked after by Katie and Summer

£17.50 for a double rum and coke plus a pint of peroni?! Bit steep really.. This isn't London

Really looked after by Katie, thank you

Just popped in for a quick drink, the service was good, and the staff were very helpful.

Popped in for some breakfast with the family. Definitely up there with the best breakfasts I’ve had. Service was great and staff very attentive. Would 100% recommend and we will back again very soon.

Had a lovely wedding lunch here. Staff were really friendly and attentive, decorated the table beautifully (big thank you to Jane!) and the food was perfect. Will definitely be our new local go to restaurant.

Booked the private room for dinner, booking process was really easy and hassle free, pre ordered meals, the room is great, cosy but plenty big enough, food was fabulous, prompt and hot, we were served all evening by Sophie who went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we wanted or needed and nothing was too much trouble for her, will definitely be back - thank you

Popped in, Great team, Good Drink, Service spot on. Thank You

This is my third private dining for special events and I have to say, The Bull never tends to let us down. The team are attentive and the food was absolutely delicious. The private rooms are great for functions and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. My daughter enjoyed her party so much that she wants the same next year. The only thing I would suggest is, if you have short on supply with the menu options, let us know in advance so we can reconsider the options. Either way, a few of the people had to change their preorders but the food was lovely. Thank you again! :)

Good food but a bit of a wait for it

Nice place to eat pub grub. Plenty of seating.

Nice pub...great vibe....lovely outside seating area.... Update...Just had breakfast here....top drawer. Update...back again...all good 👊

I deliver here and all the staff are amazingly friendly

I held a private drinks party upstairs in the Cow Shed - great service from Katie in setting everything up just as I wanted it. The bar snack food went down a storm with our guests and the room offered the perfect venue! Great value for money all round!!

Had a lovely dinner and drinks with my friends. The manager Jane couldn't of been more helpful. Suggested different drinks to try at the bar and sorted a table for us as we didn't book on advance. Will definitely be back.

A really big pub compared to the original pub many years ago now. Very stylish with arm chairs and sofa to sit in the bar area. The rest of it is a restaurant and private party room.

Staff were great, food was nice just a bit small portions.

Brilliant Service by a lovely lady called Jane. food was fantastic and quick service Sticky toffee pudding was delicious. Thank you for making our visit so great.

Nice bar with solid pub grub - lots of space even when busy.

Very slow service waiting almost 45 mins or more for our food and acknowledge our request for a didn’t high chair for our infant and placed us right at the entrance of the restaurant. Then moved us to table 2 which was dirty then still didnt give us a high chair when all other people in the restaurant had infants. When the food came cutlery wasn’t enough and are they limiting tissue or something? It was not a good service AT ALL..

Great fine wine, lovely food, friendly and welcoming staff, lovely place with a few great private snugs, also available to hire. Some things are pricey, but you get what you pay for, although the cocktails are lovely and much better prices than tgi's opposite! Fish finger sandwich for lunch was delicious. The white Bait is absolutely incredible! Nice chunky peices... defo be returning for that and would love to try the scotch egg too!

Firstly spent around 15 to 20 minutes to figure out how use their app and discover that the app is useless for ordering. Then, waited for 50 minutes before the food come. My daughter's mac and cheese took 60 minutes to come. Medium rare steak ended up as an almost well done one. Only the burgers and fries were good.

Nice relaxed pub, serving some really nice reasonably priced food... had breakfast this time and although didn't go for the full English, I can recommend the sour dough poached eggs... lovely staff, not had a bad experience here, so on my recommended list! Accessible through shopping centre, parking available in several nearby car parks, within easy walking distance

Delicious food and very friendly and attentive staff. We had the private room and were served by Sophie, who was very happy and couldn't do enough for us. Food was very good and was quick to come out. The pub is lovely and we will definitely be back again.

Food and service both great even on a busy saturday lunchtime.

It was a good atmosphere and the vibe was very nice

We had booked the upstairs area for drinks. We were the only people up there so it was lovely and really nice to be able to catch up with our friends. Service was good too. Thanks for having us. We'll be back.

Still the best boozer in Bracknell. Top beer, top nosh (Sottish burger was fab), friendly staff and if you are just popping in for a drink there is a lovely old part of the pub with lots of snug corners and comfy seating. Love it.

Nice place, bit slow on bar service.
