The Bull Burrough Green in St Edmundsbury

Having been a frequent visitor to this pub over the years and supporting it during and after Covid we were disgusted by the Landlord's behaviour. I was having a drink with a few friends and because my very well behaved 12 year old left the front door slightly open he kicked it shut and became aggressive towards us. We didn’t feel safe being female. He told us we were not welcome at the pub and said he didn’t care if we left. We were absolutely stunned after sitting there in peace and spending the best part of £22 on 2 pints and cokes. The Landlord hates kids of any kind. After happily taking my money for the drinks he then shouts this isn’t a place for kids! It was 4pm on a Sunday afternoon and they were happy sitting outside in the garden. No wonder this pub is failing and the one down the road is thriving. Never coming here again. Don’t bother.

We had an evening meal and stayed in our camper for the night and was able to enjoy a breakfast in the morning the landlord and lady were amazing food was 5star would highly recommend!!

Delightful pub with a very warm welcome from the Landlords and a roaring fire on a damp day! Nice pub food, well cooked. Good beer. We called in, passing by, and were so pleased we did. Rare to find a pub so well cared for and a lovely feeling when you walked in.

Lovely visit on a sunny Saturday to The Bull. Haven’t been before but after driving past a few weeks ago we decided to visit. Lovely ploughman’s lunch and a few drinks in the outdoor seating area. Owners and staff were very friendly , up for a laugh and just seemed really nice down to earth people. It had a really traditional village pub feel , we shall be going back!

We had booked the dining area for a lunch time event to celebrate the life of a close family member who had died. Tina and her husband were so caring and helpful and laid on exactly the food we wanted and catered for everyone’s needs with great kindness and sensitivity. Nothing was too much trouble. Can definitely recommend.

A bus load of us went on pre booked visit on our way to races, lovely new landlord, supplied chicken & chips, lovely atmosphere, excellent facilities hopefully we will be back next year on annual visit.

Lovely new landlords, very welcoming. Great village pub and worth a visit! Would definitely recommend

Welcoming, extremely clean surroundings, relaxed, dog friendly, nice to see open again. Highly reccomend & such a nice location & super landlords, thank you

Firstly I'd like to say a massive thank you to the land lord and land lady for making me , my family and my children welcomed into your beautiful establishment, if I could give you more than 5 stars I really would , the atmosphere was calm and relaxed , most importantly extremely enjoyable and the locals are amazing and the food too , we had a lovely time at the races and to come to your beautiful pub with such lovely people made our day/ evening more special and fun , looking forward to seeing you again very soon, love Paula. Andrew and kids xx

Recently taken back over after being shut for a good while. Fantastic to see this little destination pub back open, the heart of the village. Brilliant spot and very welcoming new landlords, they create a great atmosphere and are just lovely. Pleasant company in the pub, fantastic selection of beers and a great selection of food on the menu. I will return and will recommend highly for the summer. Thank you

Called today, 28 April 2022, after a long walk for a late lunch. We were made welcome by Katrina and were soon served drinks and ordered our food. There is a very pleasant and relaxing refurbished seating area. The meals were very tasty - I can recommend the fish pie as one of the best I have eaten. Well worth visiting The Bull at Burrough Green if you are in the area.

We were hesitant about eating at The Bull because they had decided against taking part in the government’s ‘Eat out to help out’ scheme but the menu attracted us and as it was the final night of our holiday in the Cambridge area we decided to splash out and we were extremely glad that we ‘took the plunge’. The food was excellent. All made at home and cooked to her Mum’s recipes, Katrina, the landlady, did a wonderful job. Her pies are filled to the brim with tender meat or chicken and not at all skimped. We used to own our own pub where all our food was home prepared so we really did appreciate the quality and hard work that went into the preparation of Katrina’s food. Both she and Dareth, her excellent front of house barman, were friendly and chatty and, not forgetting Jack the pub’s lovely Cocker Spaniel, all made for a very enjoyable final evening to our holiday. We ate out every evening, eleven of them, and there was only one other restaurant with food that we rated as highly as The Bull so thank you Katrina, Dareth and Jack for making us so welcome and feeding us so well.

Excellent food & service, dog friendly & people friendly, even let us take a doccy bag home 😀 nice clean friendly environment

My friend and I called at this pub on a Thursday lunchtime at around 12.30. It was packed. We were asked if we had booked, and when we said no, the member of staff serving said she was very sorry - they had had an influx of 25 people and they would be unable to serve us. We realised this was our own fault for not reserving a table. When she saw us looking crestfallen, she said 'If you don't mind waiting a bit, I'll squeeze you in.' They did. We were served by 1.00 with lovely food, and the staff, though very busy, were charming. Thank you - we will come again - and we'll book ahead this time! It is hard for country pubs like this to plan because during the week they may only get one or two people wanting food. The menu was full and varied. Well done.

Not been here before, despite only living 10 minutes down the road. Had heard very positive things about the place so decided to try it. So glad we did - the service was great, the food was delicious pub grub, well cooked and plenty of it and the staff were friendly. Would definitely recommend and will certainly be back.

We visited a couple of times during our stay as on nice days/evenings it was lovely to sit in the garden and look out over the village green. Food was good pub grub, staff were lovely and friendly and the other people there were mainly locals ...there was a real local country pub vibe.

We planned to have a pub lunch before a meet at Newmarket. We figured it would be more fun to have a nice pub lunch and not rush before the gates opened at 3pm. We had lunch here in May 2011 and I had to trawl through old diaries to remind myself where it was. First I was glad it was still open and the website was very informative and we could peruse their menus. I booked us a table through Facebook (they responded very quickly). Secondly we were greeted in a very friendly way and served very quickly. It is a very cosy and recently renovated (it felt like) pub with a restaurant area at the back. There is a good selection of well priced starters and mains (and desserts). There is something for everyone. The drink selection is good too! One thing we did comment on was how many older people were there and so if the food is good enough for them, it must be good! Afterwards we sat in the beer garden out the front looking out to the expansive primary school opposite and the village green. Overall it was a thoroughly decent visit. It set us up well for an afternoon and evening at the races. We promise not to leave it another 8 years.

We won a meal for two at The Bull in our local Hospice raffle but would have happily paid for our lovely Sunday lunch. We got a great warm welcome from Rob, Katrina and Jack, the gorgeous cocker spaniel. The bar had a warming fire going and a good range of beers, wines and drinks. The dining area was separate from the bar and was light and airy, loved the hare wallpaper. We shared a starter of crispy breadcrumbed slices of Portobello mushroom with a side salad and garlic mayo dip. My roast sirloin of beef came with roast potatoes and parsnips, shredded cabbage, peas and broccoli, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding. My partner's roast pork came with the same plus crackling. The large gravy boat was a joy, none of those tiny gravy pots or a drizzle over the food! We didn't make dessert, we'd fancied the apple and rhubarb crumble, so enjoyed decaff coffee and mints instead. The pub sits facing the village green so good to visit in the summer as well as being cosy indoors when the weather is not as clement. We'll definitely return.

What a great location sitting on the edge of the large village green. As the weather was fine it was nice to sit outside and enjoy the view. We ordered baguettes which came with some salad on the side. The draft beer was limited to Greene King IPA and Sharp's Doom Bar. This would make a nice local pub if we lived in the area.

We have been here a few times and always found this to be a wonderfully friendly pub. The staff are great! Food is delicious and reasonably priced.

A Good place for our car club meetings also the landlords are good supporters of our local hospice A good friendly atmosphere Over the years have eaten all types of food there also does a good fish and chip night

A rushed decision to find somewhere to eat at lunchtime. Thoroughly enjoyed an excellent meal. Good beer, wine etc. and very friendly too. I do recommend this pub in lovely countryside.

Nice country pub - beer ok. Surprised to be informed that a surcharge would be made if I used a debit card. Thought that this was now illegal. Anon.

If you’re looking for a place to go that is dog friendly this is the pub for you. There’s plenty of space outside and in the bar for you to sit and eat. Would highly recommend and so does Lola!

Had a meal at the Bull last week after a car club run. We all arrived at the same time but it wasn't long before we were seated with a drink. It was fish and chip night but a few other things were also available. The staff and especially the owner were amazing and in no time at all we had our food. The full menu is well worth a look and we will certainly return.

Visited a couple of times now with family and the roast beef has been delicious. Lovely pub with warm, friendly atmosphere. Will defiantly be visiting again!

Had a meal here the other day with over 20 of us! The food was amazing and the service was even better!! Could not recommend more!!

This was our first visit to The Bull, and we hope to visit again. We had Sunday lunch, and it was very good; the beef was pink, as beef should be, and it was very flavoursome, nice vegetables and lashings of good gravy. Good ambience, and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

We had the Sunday Roast the weekend before Christmas and it could not have been better. We were visiting my cousin and took her out as a treat for her birthday and wow how impressed were we with the food. We had the option of roast beef, pork or turkey and we chose the beef and pork, both were cooked to perfection all served with 7 beautifully cooked vegetables and a light and fluffy Yorkshire pudding. The pub was busy with a couple of larger parties and the normal regulars but nothing seemed rushed or overpowering. We didn't have starters but decided that a dessert was in order and my cousin had the apple pie and ice cream and I decided on the cheese board with a shot of port - this was spectacular and served beautifully on a wooden board - there was the shot of port, a selection of crackers, grapes, celery, and pickle and no fewer than a selection of 6 cheeses - definitely a crowd pleaser for a cheese lover like me. all the staff were very attentive and quick to serve plus the food was piping hot. The new owner/management have got the mix here just right, friendly and inviting and good food and value for money ... we just wished we lived closer so we could go more often. Great meal in a great venue, would highly recommend this to anyone.

Our group of 28 visited The Bull, now under the management of Kristina and Rob, and were well looked after. The staff were happy to open at 9.30 for pre-ordering of meals. After our walk in the lovely countryside, we returned at 12.30 and were quickly served drinks and then seated in the separate dining area. The pub has had a makeover and everywhere looks very pleasant. The waiting staff soon brought out the meals and the service was efficient. We hope to return to this pub with our group next year and that other walking groups will be able to use it.

Called in for lunch to a warm welcome from Katrina and Becky - great to see this pub had been given a real makeover and had come to life again. We ordered jacket potatoes with various toppings, just the meal to have after a long walk. Very good coffee and a good selection of beer. We booked lunch for our walking group in October as there are some lovely walks in the surrounding countryside. We wish the new management team every success.

Mi pareja y yo visitamos el Toro en una tarde encantadora jueves para el almuerzo.

Nuestro grupo de 20 senderistas completó un fin de semana aquí con Sue día almuerzo. La gerencia y el personal era acogedor y eficiente. Las raciones de comida eran generosos con amplio verduras, justo lo que necesitábamos después de un largo paseo por la mañana. . . . Por parte de nuestro grupo. Lo recomiendo sin. Nos pedidos dado el tamaño de nuestro grupo. Gracias.

Nos alegramos de volver a la plaza de toros con nuestro grupo ya hay varios interesantes paseos circular en la zona. Gracias a la apertura de pub temprano para nosotros a las 9. 30, pedidos de nuestras comidas de una buena selección en el menú. Después de 6 km a pie cruzando un paisaje precioso, nos sentamos con nuestras bebidas en el comedor decorado recientemente y nuestras comidas nos sirvieron rápidamente. Hay varios otros clientes en el bar principal y es una buena prueba de un pub que puedan hacer frente a un grupo al mismo tiempo que otros clientes que sólo llaman para una bebida y comida. Hay un aparcamiento de un buen tamaño en el asiento de atrás y al aire libre en la parte delantera con vistas al campo. Fue alentador ver el apoyo para este pub especialmente como algunos otros bares de la zona han cerrado recientemente.

Mi esposa y yo tuvimos una cena en la Plaza de Toros y la comida era estupenda. Los dos nos tomamos un bistec. . La calidad era excelente, las porciones eran generosas y todos sabían. También tuvimos unos postres y bebidas, todo lo cual fue servido por un personal muy amable y servicial, y el proyecto también era razonable.

Fuimos allí para la Cena del sábado. Fue impresionante la comida estaba bien presentada y muy bien cocinada. Las porciones eran grandes. Tuve la lasaña y lado de pan de ajo bien no era una o dos rebanadas de un pan. Pero. Mi marido tenía tarta casera y era delicioso. Mi amigo tenía gambas y que estaba delicioso. Ellie y James nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos. Sin duda recomendaría este pub en el área o cerca sin duda vale la pena una visita. Bien hecho a todo el personal.

Llamamos para el almuerzo de hoy, 1 de marzo, después de 6 km a pie en el campo de los alrededores encantadores y nos sirve con dos comidas sabrosas ensaladas de gambas y salmón, el otro era salchichas y puré de guisantes, con un amplio espectro de la salsa. Fue muy agradable ver que este pueblo encantador había sido redecorado y parecía muy agradable y acogedor. Hay un comedor independiente, así como una zona de bar tradicional con mesas y sillas. Hay asientos afuera en el frente con una vista de el pueblo verde y un montón de aparcamiento en la parte trasera del pub. El toro es siempre una opción popular con nuestro grupo a pie de Cambridge y hemos reservado para almorzar allí después de nuestro paseo más tarde en la primavera.

Buscando una cena de última hora y nos registramos asado restaurantes locales en AD. Este lugar tuvo buenas críticas, pero realmente era mejor de lo que imaginaba. Fantástico, comida casera y todo estaba preparado a la perfección. Regresaremos el próximo domingo. 5 estrellas todo el día ⭐ ️ ⭐ ️ ⭐ ️ ⭐ ️ ⭐ ️

Had a lovely family mealWe had roast which was so yummy really tasty the best roast around and my young granddaughter who's 5 never eats a whole toast so we always ask for a plate which they brought out with Yorkshire pudding so she wasn't left out lovely friendly staff excellent food lovely place

Great atmosphere, friendly helpful happy staff, homely feel and yummy food Definitely worth a visit!

Stopped here for lunch on our way to Norfolk. Just had sandwiches, but they were made with very good ingredients( perfectly ripe Brie ) and very friendly service. We will definitely visit again. Dog friendly as well.

Stopped at The Bull, Burrough Green, whilst looking for somewhere to eat that was still serving food. We hadn't been there for years so wasn't sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised as they were busy for a Wednesday night but also because they were so welcoming. The menu consisted of good homemade pub classics plus a couple of nice surprises. I had a huge bowl of moules in leek, white wine & garlic served with homemade chips & bread, my husband had the drunken bull pie. All was freshly prepared & served hot! I am known for being a fussy eater but I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place.

15 walkers planned a walk around this area and we started off at the pub. At 10 am we gave them our orders for lunch.We returned at 12.15 and enjoyed some very well kept beers! Our orders were duly provided within 15 minutes of our arrival.The group had dishes from across the range on the menu from delightfully well filled sandwiches and chips through to cooked dishes like Lasagne. They all seemed very satisfied with much positive mumblings!The staff were very friendly and helped kept everyone satisfied!

We've visited twice, both in the evening mid-week. Both times the food has been nice and good portion sizes. The chef was very pleasant and helpful. It's just the customer service on the second visit and the general atmosphere that was poor. The first time we were in the restaurant on our own next to the hoover that had been left out and a young child left to run around. The second time we were greeted and served by a very unfriendly man who made us feel we were putting him out by having to serve us. No hello/warm greeting when we walked in - carried on pouring and then drinking his drink until we greeted him. Both visits felt amateurish like the people weren't quite sure what they were doing. Have been put off returning again unfortunately.

A lovely Sunday lunch, yummy food, brilliant service, we will be returning!! Very accommodating landlord, despite being very busy!

Great pub, family friendly and loverly Landlord & Landlady. Foods good and nice sized portions for the price. Sunday dinner is definitely worth a try.

Went to the bull with family for lunch. Very friendly welcome and very good with the children. Meal was ok but too long a wait for it. Didn't have a dessert it took too long. They were very busy but very limited staff

We came here for dinner and thought the pub was delightful. We had a starter and a main course, both of which were delicious. There was a lovely atmosphere and the service was brilliant. Would not hesitate to go back and are already planning on a visit for their Halloween party with some friends.

Had a great meal at the bull great service and atmosphere Ellie was also a great hostess would recommend to any one who likes honest home made food see you again soon

Great food, nice garden, good service, clean and friendly staff. Overall really enjoyed our trip here. The food was quick and really nice.

Eaten here several times. All the meals have been amazing. Sunday roast has a fantastic choice of beautifully cooked meats, great selection of vegetables . The service is second to none and the staff very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this family pub.

Went here last night had friends up from Hampshire. Warm friendly welcome. Starters beautiful, tasty, the prawns were tender, the batter, light, crunchy, others enjoyed mushrooms in garlic butter with warm crusty roll. Mains boys had ribeye steaks, they said best they had ever had in this country, cooked to perfection,Newmarket sausages, mash,onion gravy, scampi, all beautiful and tasty, pity we could not fit in desserts, the food is all very well cooked and homemade. The staff were helpful and attentive. Good food, good value, lovely experience will definitely go back soon.

One of the best Sunday roasts beef was perfect and lots of lovely veg a very good selection . Staff were friendly will be back soon.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Service was polite and friendly food was good home style and tasty. In terms of value have had better but certainly not expensive

Fantastic selection of 'pub grub' and beers & some good weekday lunch deals too. Outside seating for the sunnier days & sport always being shown on the tv's. Good service & a good stop off point on a Saturday night too with different entertainment / music.

Went to this gem of a pub yesterday for lunch, the food was fantastic, meat cooked perfectly and lots of lovely different types of veg. Will definitely be going back

Stopped last night for a meal, my wife is a coeliac locally not many pubs fully cater for her problem we know this from how she feels afterwards. The chef knew what her requirements were a separate fryer for chips she was in seventh heaven great meal exceptionally priced we look forward to our next visit Thank you to the chef

What a lovely pub with lovely people and great food. I'm impressed!I recently had Sunday lunch in the pub and I thought the lamb was cooked to perfection. Not too well done but just right. There was so much to go with it I couldn't believe my eyes. I had to take a photo. All the greens, cauliflower cheese and gravy you could wish for and that was just the side dishes. I can't remember exactly how much it was but I do remember it was a bargain!I have also had a couple of their dishes from their usual menu and I was equally as impressed with them also. The plate of moule frite I had the other day was as large as the table itself and I could have eaten it all day. Large portion and delicious. The people that work at the pub are equally as impressive. The chef talks about food with such passion you know he loves what he does. Then there's Ellie who delivers the food with speed and elegance. And James who seems to keep this well oiled machine working brilliantly. What a great team and a great pub. I can not recommend this pub highly enough whether that be for lunch, dinner or even just a drink with some friendly locals.

Visited this pub with family recently. The food was all home made and tasted amazing, lovely friendly staff who went out of their way to make us feel welcome and a general nice family friendly atmosphere as well as a good selection of drinks. Would definitely recommend!

The Bull at Burrough Green is now under new management ... A friendly warm welcome awaits anyone who visits ! Delicious homemade lunch and dinner available throughout the week , a great family atmosphere. A must try for anyone looking for a good honest food. ☺️

We liked this pub, the atmosphere was good, people and staff were friendly, but the drinks were exspenive in our opinion and the Gordons Gin was unusually weak even more so as it was a double!

This pub has been taken over by new Landlord . They are extremely friendly and very welcoming. Food good and great local atmosphere.

Stopper off in Newmarket when returning from holiday. Found the Green King pub – The Bull. The service was first class, nothing too much trouble. Food lovely unable to eat all, no fault just not too hungry, so the young lady kindly wrapped it up for us to take away. Easy to find being on the High Street.

I'm often in the area on business but had only stayed a couple of times in Newmarket.Called in for a beer but was tempted by the look of the food that other customers were having.A lucky decision in staying for a steak, as value for money wise it was excellent! Bar staff really friendly and the whole pub had a nice 'local' feel to it.Will certainly try here again.

Well, I wanted a genuine pub experience in the English countryside. The Bull was not it. Reeking of wet carpet and stale beer, the dank environment was littered with Bingo machines and strange waiter mannerisms. The menu looked like a carbon copy of Americana fare and pricing was okay. After being told to order our food from the bar, the offering that arrived was bland and unimaginative. I'm sure there are better options down the road.
