Went to the bull for lunch with three friends. Food was probably the worst I’ve ever had in a pub. Not a pleasant experience!

Took our parents for Sunday lunch, we hadn't booked but were thoughtfully seated. (One of our party was sensitive to noise) The roast was lovely with lovely variety of vegetables including cauli cheese. Clean plates all round! Great value!

Having not eaten here for a very long time, decided to try the roast under the new chef and so glad we did! It was delicious, all freshly cooked (no aunt Bessie's here!!) and amazing value. Definitely recommend it for families wanting a delicious meal without the expensive price tag!!

Regularly come here. Always good food and atmosphere. Today was no exception. Our server today was Nette who looked after us very well.

We visited The Bull primarily to use their car park as we had brief business to conduct in Dereham and parking there is tricky, to say the least! Having parked in The Bull's car park, we had lunch there, which was quickly delivered, very nice and extremely good value for money. Loved the decor in the ladies loos! The lady who served us was super-friendly and helpful and it served our purpose perfectly. The added bonus was that whilst in Dereham I lost the cover to my Burberry umbrella and the helpful lady had found it and kept it behind the bar. Other bonus was that they sell Gordons Pink "Zero Alcohol" Gin! If we have to visit our solicitors in Dereham again, we would definitely return to The Bull again.

,,,, went for Sunday lunch we waited over half an hour when it came we had cauliflower cheese with no cauliflower just the sauce no beef sauce to go with the beef the beef was very tough everything on the plate was very sparse as if we would just got the end drags of everything the Yorkshire pudding was crispy on the outside like it had been put in a deep fat fryer very disappointed we complained that had no compensation I think we should be invited back to the pub for another meal it was late when we went in but really they should have said we are finished roast dinners thank you Karen my phone number is 07788278979 I would add appreciate a call

We went out for a Friday night pub meal in The Bull. The place looks nice on the outside, it is equally nice on the inside, albeit it was a bit quiet. We went for a few beers, a bottle of wine, some spectacular American dirty burgers and a few desserts. We had a great time and will be back.

We visited last Wednesday at lunchtime. We ordered 3 different meals, each one very poor. Cold chips, scampi that looked like coal and a side salad that was only fit for the bin. Moody waitresses, who didn’t like it when I requested hot chips, I didn’t feel I could address the other issues due to her attitude. I did email Nigel, who I am guessing is the manager, he replied to say he would look into my issues but a week later nothing! His failure to get back to me says it all. Our meals were £12 more expensive than The Romany Rye! My advice, if you want good food at s reasonable price, served by friendly staff then go down the road to Wetherspoons and give this place a miss

My wife and her 2 friends went for lunch on a recommendation. She tells me that the food was tasty but the portions were quite small(she not a big eater) However her real complaint was about the attitude of the man who served them, who was thought to be the landlord. He was very offhand and seemed to appear as if he was doing them a bit favour by being there. She says she will go again and hope the person who served them has changed.

Yummy!! What a delicious lunch we had today! Great choice on menu, beautifully presented and tasted beautiful! Had the chilli burger and the mixed grill. Beautiful cuts of meat, cooked to perfection, (all except the sausage which was a bit too well done for my liking). Dessert was equally as yummy with chocolate brownie and ice-cream, and apple pie and custard! Well worth a visit!!

Visited here with my children during the half term break. For a week day lunch time the pub was very busy which obviously is a good sign. There was one table left which we had. We were served very quickly for our drinks order and then food. The food came in a reasonable time frame and looked very very good. We all had a lovely meal and will be looking forward to returning soon. Thank you very much.

We visited the Bull on Sunday 12th December 2021 - We had pre booked our meals from the Christmas Menu! The table service was excellent! The starters arrived within good time, and when the main courses arrived, they were piping hot, with a good selection of vegetables, turkey, stuffing, pigs in blankets, and plenty of gravy. The atmosphere was really nice and festive!! We are really looking forward to visiting the Bull again next time we are in Dereham. Thank you for a great experience!

A group of us paid £15.95 each for a so-called Christmas lunch. Firstly, it arrived luke- warm, my friend returned his. Secondly it was ridiculously small. Apart from the turkey (which was good) it consisted of a miniscule ball of stuffing, a few mushy roast potatoes and a small dish of boiled carrotts and roast parsnips to feed all three of us! There were NO pigs in blankets, brussels or any other seasonal vegetables! The Christmas pudding was acceptable, but was hugely overpriced at £15.95! We booked based on previous visits, but this was our last visit.

One of the few pubs in Dereham that served food. Had tried on the Sunday but stopped serving by 7pm. All dishes declared as local produce so tried the cottage pie and my wife had the beef lasagne. Both were very nice and quite tasty but veg was slightly undercooked for our liking. Desserts seemed quite expensive so went back to Wetherspoons for them. No bar service available unlike most other pubs.

Visited as a family party of 8 for drinks. The Bull lacks any atmosphere, bar staff are surly and unhelpful, beer is flat and so was the lemonade. I ordered a wine spritzer, appeared to receive just a wine, complained only to be passed to 2 different bar staff who appeared to be arguing amongst themselves. Original barmaid stood at the end of the bar on her phone ignoring me. Husband ordered a bottle of bud as the draft lager was flat and undrinkable, and specifically requested a glass… still waiting for that glass. Would certainly not visit again

Recently moved to the area and thought I would give this place a visit as in town. The building itself is very traditional and pretty however isn't very disabled friendly for that reason. Food was ok nothing special. However the thing that let it down was a very rude staff member. While reading reviews I notice this has been mentioned a few times so clearly wasn't just the server having a bad day. Unfortunately it completely ruined my experience

My mum and myself had been starting to visit the Bull once a week as the food was gorgeous always piping hot, but on our last visit the server was so rude, communication skills were zero it felt like she would have happily thrown our food at us, like she practically did our cutlery. Sadly we have decided to go elsewhere for our lunch

Friendly staff, the curries were tasty, and there's a spacious eating area outside away from the passing traffic. All good so far. What let this pub down for me, was their choice of non alcoholic beers - Beck's Blue. Come on, have you tried it! Not very good and no proper decaffeinated coffee either.

Visited Bull for my friends hen do. Very poor service, no one never knew the answers to the simplest questions, oh let me go and check, oh let me go and ask. Poor wine choice, poor food quality, steak was flat as a pancake and no flavour. Had to ask for everything nothing was available like condiments, napkins. Generally used to much higher quality of service and food so didn’t expect too much and was I right not to... won’t be coming back.

Had lunch with my daughter, usually love the food here but not this time. My basket meal was OK for the price. My daughter ordered a vegetarian mushroom pasta option It looked like microwave pasta etc. Not worth the price or putting on the menu. Look awful. Lovely staff though.....she said it wasnt nice. Not the usual for this lovely pub.

Took the family in for an evening meal. Where to start? The mixed grill was absolutely shocking, fatty bacon, steak not fit for a dog, sausage missing, just absolutely awful. £15 for what I can only describe as shocking. 8 oz sirloin...really. Wafer thin, very well done (ordered medium rare) scrap of beef, again £15 that wasn’t worthy of a fiver. Bangers and mash, sausages that would struggle to be branded cocktail sausages! £4.80 for a pint. Wow, I now know why they were lined up down the street for weatherspoons. Never again will I visit such a poor establishment

We visited The Bull twice for evening meals whilst staying at Yaxham. The food was delicious. The cheddar ploughman’s was just right as a light bite and the poppy seed rolls were very tasty. The ribs were also a big hit and everything was piping hot and served beautifully. There was hand sanitizer, track and trace and way in and out clearly displayed

We've visited this pub three times, within as many weeks. Always a friendly welcome especially from Clare on our first visit. That's one of the reasons why we have returned. Overall, the quality of the food is good, except for one meal. On our first visit I had the lasagne - first class. Second time it was dry and tasteless. The apple pie on the other had is delicious. Plenty of space between the tables and to move around in these cover 19 times.

We had a drink & ordered food, there was a decent choice available. However the food was served by a very unpleasant male, nor did it look very appealing or look freshly cooked. Once finished, plates taken away & no questions from the male again. Not a great way to treat new customers, on a quiet Saturday evening. I doubt I’ll re-attend as better customer service available elsewhere in town.

Went to Wetherspoons in Dereham and after making three different choices of main course only to find they had run out or their grill was out of action. Gave up and decided to try The Bull. So pleased I did. Best scampi and chips I’ve had in ages. Also mushy peas were delicious. My husband had a steak which he said was perfect. Don’t know how they do it for the money. I know where I’ll be going next time. Thumbs up for The Bull.

Met up with friends on bank holiday weekend, there were 10 of us drinking in the garden for couple of hours, when we all decided we felt peckish... however when we tried to order food just after 7 we were told that food stopped at 7pm...really on a bank holiday weekend?? Needless to say that we all drank up and moved on! Also the ladies toilets were in a right state, one of the ladies in our group mentioned this to the bar staff, but nothing was done about it!

We asked The Bull if they could lay on a spread of good quality food as refreshments after my mother's funeral. Well, the staff excelled themselves. They set part of the pub area specifically for us, the food was superb and exactly as we had requested. One of the lads behind the bar dedicated his time to sort out our drinks as we arrived. A massive THANK YOU to The Bull. I would recommend The Bull as reasonably priced and quality food in a nice environment.

Booked the Bull for a late festive lunch as it was the time I had my daughters over that period. We had the pre ordered festive menu which to be honest tasted like Christmas Day lunch reheated it was a big let down with a lot of it inedible. I did feel sorry for the bar and waiting staff as I couldn’t fault them, they did their utmost to rectify things. Also to the pubs credit they couldn’t apologise enough and knocked a hefty amount off the bill. I understand also that the pub had just changed management just before Christmas.

I visited this Green King pub and having signed up to the green King app saw that as there was a football game on tv, Derby v Fulham then I would get 10% discount off of my pint of San Miguel. I went to pay and showed my discount card only to be told 'no season ticket tonight' why advertise it on your app and then say no. Maybe your barmaid with the short blonde hair and glasses was not told but hey that's not my fault. One lost customer !

Asked for a mozzarella, and tomatoes salad. Salad was manky no mozzarella or croutons so I sent it back it came back with mozzarella but it was still the same manky salad no croutons, my partner had fish and chips with a side order of bread and butter that didn't turn up. And the other member of our party had lasanga which very crispy garlic bread. Disappoint as we usually enjoy our food there, we got a refund on the salad and the bread that didn't turn up. I think the chef must have been different as we came on at a later time than normal. So unfortunate as we were looking forward to our meal there.

My family and I popped to The Bull for a late lunch. There was 5 of us so was surprised we found a table at the end of a lunchtime on a Saturday. I’m always a little worried about unknown pubs because, let’s be honest it can be hit and miss regarding the food. I have to say I was very happy with my meal. The food was reasonably priced and it was lovely. I had the pulled pork burrito, the portion size was big and the food was really tasty. There was a good selection for the kids; the real challenge for all of us was narrowing down the menu and making a decision! The menu had a large variety of food which is also a bonus, there was much more than your standard burger or fish and chips. I would definitely recommend.

This friendly pub never fails me.. Food is always served to a great standard, staff are welcoming and helpful, lovely little beer garden too... good sport coverage, live music and a regular quiz on a Thursday evening.

Having been to The Bull on numerous occasions I have always found the staff to be very friendly, welcoming and helpful. I myself have several intolerances, to which they always accommodate!The food is always enjoyable, freshly cooked and tastes lovely.

We had a spontaneous trip out and stopped at the Maltsters Pub , we were hungry so decided to order the Roast Beef. Oh my God was it good, the Beef melted in the mouth and it looked as good as it tasted. Staff were friendly and did their very best to look after us while we were there. We will be coming back to try more, my waistline may not thank me though. Unfortunately I didn’t take any photos of my food as I was hungry and tucked in!

Went in there on my own 5.30 Saturday about 6?people in the bar 2 persons watching which sounded like a porno film it was unbelievable the lady bar staff done nothing, the sound was louder than the back ground music Never will I visit this pub again, it deserves to be closed down

Stopped here for a quick bite in the evening whilst passing through. Limited menu, I had pie and chips. It was hot and tasty so no complaints. I sat at a small corner table and when I went to put my bag on the floor my elbow got caught up in a whole nest of cobwebs that ran floor to ceiling. Moved to a different table and when I looked at the carpet it was glistening with slug slime! Yes you read that right!! Trails and trails of slug slime all over the carpet. I went to put my bag on the chair next to me. The chairs are covered with faded pink felt like fabric that would have been all the rage in the 70s but it was thick with long hairs all trapped in the fabric. The window sills were covered with dead flies. The bar man - am I allowed to say man in these politically correct times?? The bar person / server was however very friendly, welcoming and polite. Very depressing place, definitely needs a clean and makeover.

The fish was bony and the batter soggy would not recommend. And had to wait for it to be cooked .
