The Bull's Head in South Derbyshire

Great service, great company. Kayleigh was a superstar made our night special. Looking forward to returning. Boom x x x

Yet again a disappointment… Ordered Yakatori sticks, Honey, Sesame & Chilli Chips , with Japanese Coleslaw …. The Yakatori sticks were lovely, unfortunately the Chips & Coleslaw were a no show (again) ! The young man apologised, bless him and was lovely…The manager (who refunded me) no sign of an apology, instead, I was made to feel, I was at fault ! We live over the road, so it’s convenient, but it’ll be The Boot next time…. Such a shame….

The Bulls Head is a personal favourite of ours and once again we had a wonderful evening here. The staff are fantastic, always welcoming and happy to help. Our food was amazing, drinks came quickly and we really enjoyed celebrating my partners birthday here.

Great venue for meeting friends ….usually amazing …..but last night’s food wasn’t great …. Tofu noodles were very greasy yet tofu not at all crispy. Husbands lentil dhal he described as pretty tasteless. Really hard to choose healthy options at Chilled Pubs. Not cheap so they need to absolutely nail the food offerings. Oh and I finished with a scoop of lemon sorbet …. It was insanely small, like a teaspoons worth. Won’t be rushing back, which is a shame, as staff and surroundings excellent.

Wow, what a room to have lunch in (garden room) - will not spoil the experience!! Different type of menu but thoroughly enjoyed sampling the various options. First time I had to pay via a QR code on the table - help was at hand!!

Visited with wife to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. Ordered food and drinks and had a pleasant and enjoyable meal. However was somewhat taken aback when it came to pay bill. Had to pay by card, and whilst going through transaction was prompted whether I wanted to pay gratuity of 10%/15%/or 20%. I personally thought this was outrageous and felt i was almost being blackmailed. I normally leave a cash tip at my own discretion which I feel appropriate and do not like to be told what to give. I think this practice needs stopping.

It used to be so good, but the pizzas have been value engineered so much, they’re just being tight on ingredients, So now you get very large pieces of flat bread with nothing on them, tiny bits of cheese, a few mushrooms, some tomato paste. It seems so sad when they used to be so good.

Was recommended this place by a friend, so thought we would give it a try for our wedding anniversary meal. It doesn't look much from the outside, but wow what a beautiful little place this is. Such a chilled out atmosphere and what they have done with the decor is very different and beautiful. The portion size of the food is extremely generous, and even though there was a slight issue with some of the food, we will definitely be going back. And without any hesitation, the particular item of food was taken off the bill. Our server, Henry, was amazing! We haven't experienced customer service that good in a very long time 👍🏻

Went for food which was absolutely amazing and cooked to perfection even though the place was absolutely rammed it looked like every table had the same service as we did which is great. Also asked them for a candle and cake as we were there for a birthday but came unprepared which they could not accommodate however after this without any further conversation they organised a dessert for the persons who birthday it was with a happy birthday message written out which we went even charged for...10/10 restaurant and service...the only annoying thing about this place is that it's 10 mins away from me and I never knew about it until last night which if I had known sooner would have been my local by now.

I went with my spiffing CURRENT partner for their birthday. She had yakitori sticks, I had chicken burger just to be different. I bought her two LARGE glasses of white wine, which had the desired effect and I almost got lucky when I got home, but I ended up throwing up on the cat instead and spending the evening in catio. That was much better than the pub. ;)

We visited here to have a family meal. The restaurant is so lovely with the greenery and blossom tree, all with tiny lights. We ordered steaks with various sauce, they offer quite a few one in particular favourite was blue cheese sauce. The meals arrived and they all looked delicious and well presented. The sauce that came with the steak however, was the consistency of milk and it was served cold, when we asked we were told all the sauces are served cold. I understand if you ask for ketchup it would be cold, but a pouring sauce not so. The waitress though was delightful and took the sauce back to the kitchen to warm it, the consistency obviously no change but at least it was a hot sauce to pour over the steak and chips. I would say they are very busy and booking would be advisable. All staff were attentive and very helpful.

Nice pub with really clever way of paying your bill by scanning QR code. Saves all the hassle of waiting for bill and then waiting again for the card machine. Apparently set up in house. Apart from that good choice of food and beers and excellent service

Excellent food drinks and atmosphere. Lucy served us and was very friendly, helpful and professional. Definitely return

Consistency, cheap, great staff. All be it knackers the village with traffic, on experience it’s good. Welcome, food, atmosphere and staff. You can see why it’s so popular and essentially cheap.

We had a fantastic meal at The Bulls Head celebrating two birthdays. The atmosphere/decor upstairs is lovely and the service from Lucy (I think, sorry if this is wrong!) was exceptional, with changes to orders and also providing birthday treats. Thank you. The food as always is superb, the pizzas here are perfect and the menu means you will be back to try what you didn’t have next time. Thank you again and I would recommend here to anyone.

Recommended by locally living family whilst visiting the area, we were bowled over by everything the Bulls Head had to offer. The drinks we had were wide-ranging and fabulous (homemade lemonade with lemon sorbet, Cookie Monster cocktail, and a couple of IPAs). The food was innovative, plentiful, and beautifully cooked. A humming, relaxed atmosphere underpinned by attentive, purposeful, and efficient staff who were happy to give recommendations. Smart tech when it comes to paying the bill, especially if there's a group, the QI code at the table enables you to split the bill both in numbers and also items. It's not overpriced, either. We'll definitely be back when visiting. This has now become a destination venue for us.

This was our second visit here and it didn't disappoint. Fabulous food and excellent service. Will definitely be returning.

Went here for my wife’s 40th last week and absolutely loved it. Beautiful decor and food was amazing and reasonably priced considering the decor. We had Jo looking after us and was brilliant also Would definitely return

Exceptional food and drinks. Our waiter, Henry was superb, very attentative. First time for us here as usually visit The Joiners Arms. Be back very soon!

I visited with my boyfriend in January for his birthday treat and we had a wonderful visit. The Bulls ahead is our go-to birthday restaurant and it never fails to disappoint. I have tried the pizzas, sandwiches and fish and chips, which were all stunning, but this time I tried the pit burger and my boyfriend tried the chicken burger. The food tasted amazing and the portion size was perfect. The chunky chips are also a highlight. The service is always efficient and the restaurant always has a good atmosphere. I like the online ordering and paying system, particularly the images of the food and the drinks so that you know what to expect. The cocktails are to die for.

A wonderful lunch from start to finish. Fabulous food (large/generous portions) lovely restaurant, with a great vibe and busy atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble and Gino who looked after us, was an absolute super star! Can’t recommend enough and can’t wait to go back, as there was a large menu with so much to choose from.

Visited the garden room for my husbands birthday on Friday. Even though it was extremely busy, the staff were excellent. Polite, friendly and went out of their way to make sure our visit was good. The food was excellent and when they found out it was his birthday they bought him a platter of ice cream on a slate with “happy birthday “ on it. Parking was difficult and we had to park on the main road and walk in but it was fine. Reasonably priced for the quality and amount of food. Had a lovely evening. Will definitely try the pizza next time, they looked amazing. I have to recommend the Thai chicken, it was fantastic.

Came for lunch with my bestie and toddler. The staff were amazing, interacting with my little one and they didn't even mind his blocks around. The food was superb and overall atmosphere is brilliant. This was my 3rd visit and we will definitely be back.

Had a lovely evening meal as an early Mother’s Day treat. Served by Elliot who was polite, friendly and gave 10/10 service. Food was great as usual, plenty of it and comes out hot, unlike some restaurants. Great selection of Cocktails too.

The Bulls Head in Repton is outstanding. Our server Alex did a great job and even wrote a plaque for my daughters birthday which was such a lovely gesture. The food was exemplary and the portions for value was spot on. Very amazing food and could easily spend hours in there just having drinks! Was so yummy and would definitely go back again. I highly advise the garden room as it’s got this beautiful tree which is just so gorgeousz

Have been regulars in the past and decided to re-visit. Fantastic good value food but sadly very poor service and attitude. Shame …

Family of 4 out to celebrate our daughter's birthday- our children researched it thoroughly and booked online. Totally ignored us from the second we ordered drinks- we can only assume they are RACIST as the waiters were buzzing about right next to us but ignoring every attempt we made to get their attention- IGNORED UNTIL WE MISSED LAST ORDERS FOR MAIN MEAL. Typically ruled by the useless teens and useless ne'erdowell wide-boy failures Food good, service UTTER TRIPE

The Bull's Head is a few minutes walk from the church (Mercian capital) in Repton and also from the bus stop for Derby/Burton so you can avoid driving. Good lunch menu of pizzas or other pub food (pizza and pub food are from different menus so order from only one to get your meals together). Pizza are a good size and lots of meat and vegetarian options plus one vegan option. Full bar

We had a fantastic evening at the Bulls Head, the service was outstanding and the waitress serving was so friendly and polite aswell as super efficient! The food was beautiful and tasty, there was a good choice of options on the menu too! It was my son’s first visit to the Bulls Head and he was super impressed with food and service. 100% worth a visit. Well done team, i am a big believe in give credit where it’s due!

What a fabulous place to have a meal. Came here to celebrate my sons and my own birthday with family. Food was all cooked to perfection and all was very tasty. Waitress looked after us all brilliantly from start to finish. And what a nice surprise at the end, they brought us both out an ice cream each on a slate with happy birthday written on it. Food prices are very good for the quality of the food we had. Thank you for making our evening so special. Definitely return again in the near future and would definitely recommend you to family and friends.

GINO was lovely. Very helpful and friendly service. Food was on point. :) :) :) really nice atmosphere

Visited with my other half, there was a lovely wide selection of drinks, especially wine and gins. The cocktails were a little too expensive for my liking however the whole place is a little pricey. We enjoyed a homemade pizza each and a garlic bread to share, the food was incredible. I mean it was amazing! The pizza was the best pizza I have ever had I really recommend. We sat outside in the garden room which had such a pretty atheistic. The whole place is gorgeously decorated and is really good for a one of special occasion. Incredible food, incredible place.

I can’t fault the Bulls Head on their level of customer service, ambiance or friendliness however because there are two kitchens that aren’t in communication with one another you may like us get a pizza if ordered half an hour before your other main meals so be prepared for this. Plus as they are so popular they squash in as many covers as possible, which will effect the quality of your meal. I’d order a popular choice off the menu, don’t order the veggie options as a lack of love goes into these limited options, which was what happened in my case. The staff however were most apologetic and did deduct it off the bill and offered a replacement but when you’re already half an hour behind the rest of your table and you’re given a time you have to vacate it’s not an option you can go with I’m afraid. Would I give it another go yes, because the staff were great. But I’d follow my own advice.

Could not fault it,the place has a really different atmosphere,different rooms to explore and all really nice.The service was the best I’ve experienced in a long time at the bar and at the table,we ate upstairs in the Long Horn room it was light and spacious but the Garden room also looked lovely.The food was great and cooked to perfection,will definitely be going back

Great pub. Really like all the different rooms and the great outdoor space . Fab service and a great menu with real tasty offerings

Walking through to get upstairs you realise that this is no ordinary establishment. When you understand that the owners were London Lawyers you realise the attention to detail and fine consideration for every nook and cranny. The Tapas menu has something for everyone to try and the old fashioned lemonade with lemon sorbet and a hint of mint gave me the same excitement as a child having a knickerbocker glory for the first time!I live in Manchester and I will defiantly be visiting again with my family.

We went for lunch to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The food was excellent, the restaurant setting lovely and the staff very helpful and friendly. At the end of the meal, we had a lovely surprise when the restaurant gave us a celebration dessert for our anniversary. A lovely thought and it very nicely topped off a fantastic experience. Thank you very much to all at The Bulls HeadWe will definitely be back !

So much choice! I went for lots of small sticks and sides (tapas style!) while my husband went for the large BBQ chicken stick. Finished it off with the chocolate orange dessert (defeated the 2 of us sharing it!). Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the service was friendly and efficient but relaxed. Highly recommend this place.Thanks to the team there, for an excellent meal and an evening we'll remember.

Ate mid-week for a birthday party (3 kids 5 adults). All nice and pleasant service, food choices were interesting and prepared well. We felt it was definitely value for money. Taking off one star because the service (although very pleasant) was slow (about 1 hour from arrival before any food arrived, had to ask for bill, etc) and the upstairs room got very warm and humid (someone else mentioned this but it was quite uncomfortable). Probably better when its not raining and they can open the doors. Definitely worth a visit most of us said we would go back.

Put a date in your diary folks to visit The Bulls Head at Shenstone!!The pub has had an amazing refurb which has made the place look & feel a million times better!!The staff are all amazing and will look after you extremely well. But if there is one thing that is sure to make you go back time & time again and that is the Steak & Merlot Pie with Beef Dripping Pastry!!!! TO DIE FOR!!I'm sure the rest of the food is incredible also and the Skewers looked awesome but the PIE......Oh my days it was good!!Great job Ellie!!Eat Pie People!!

Stop what you are doing, whether it's building a brick wall, delivering a baby or having sky diving lessons, and get yourself down to the Bulls Head, Repton.This is a true culinary extravaganza at a modest price, add a sprinkling of super friendly staff, and a great pint of Blue Moon craft beer,and you seriously would be stupid to go anywhere else. It was our wedding anniversary and we booked a table for 2 (obviously) & ordered the chicken teriyaki hanging skewer thingy, with a choice of 2 sides all for a very reasonable price.You've seen Homer Simpson sorta drool and make that funny noise, well that's kinda what you see customers doing when they carry your food through. And the staf, wow finally a place who aren't scared to strike a conversation, take pictures for you and offer enough assistance, without being pushy.And to top our experience off, a gift desert for our anniversary, laid out to look amazing. If you are celebrating something, do it with confidence, do it here, you won't be dissappointed. From the quaint bar, to comfy restaurant or the secret sun terrace, and the great staff. Nuff said. Cheers Bulls head, our visit on the 26th July couldn't of been any better x

Eating in at Bulls Head difficult if inhouse app not used, which is a problem for infrequent & computer illiterate people like myself. Cannot run a tab with a card behind the bar. Tables rather close together allowing adjacent loud conversation spoiling own table's quieter conversation. Other than that interesting & extensive menu giving value for money. Pizza excellent with takeaway option utilised. Insufficient parking causing overflow onto High Street which then hinders locals from accessing their properties.

The Bulls head was always a nice place. After a refurbishment the comfortable atmosphere has been retained while smartening the place up. The food and service has certainly gone up by a couple of notches.All of the staff are extremely friendly and efficient - thanks Eliza. A better type of pub.Highly recommended.

Excellent food, friendly and helpful staff. They needed prompting a few times to replenish drinks but it was exceptionally busy! Awesome ice cream too! One comment: a few more veggie options? Thank you for completing a fantastic day for us.

Great night, with fab company, made better by good food, fab drinks and warm and friendly service in the nicest of environments. Will definitely be returning. X

i definitely think this place used to be a lot better than it is now. the best part about the restaurant is definitely the pizza, anything else off the menu is very average. I had the beef stroganoff and it was very plain and bland. The sauce tasted powdery. Ive eaten here on many occasions and service is hit and miss depending whos on. They are always very busy and it seems to be that there is never enough staff on, or knowledgeable either. I would go here for pizza but never for a special occasion

Visited The Bulls Head for an evening meal, immediately struck with it being very popular - the atmosphere was good. My wife had a Thai curry with rice, I had the fish and chips ( served in a large wooden box) - good portions, nicely presented and delicious. We were full so we decided against a dessert - would recommend booking in advance. Staff we found to be friendly and attentive.

I met a friend for a Tuesday night tea date, when we first arrived we headed to the main bar which was rammed so went to find a table and were seated in the secret garden area. The staff were very helpful and attentive, we shared a Camembert to start which was amazing, it was properly baked with a crispy skin which I had never had before. We shared a pizza which was very tasty but a bit stingy on the toppings which is reflected on the very good score but excellent. Very reasonably priced aswell!

Well after arriving and finding that the table i had booked online had not been booked after all, they did manage to fit us in a different room. My partner opted for the fish and chips which was reccomended to him and i had a burger. Not alot of choice on the menu though. My partners fish came in what looked like a box that you would store vegetables in, the fish looked as though it had been cooked about 5 times over and not much fish on it. You get much fish at Georges fish bar. Don't think we will be rushing back to this place sorry.

I visited with my partner one evening. He had the steak, which he said was small and cold with a meagre amount of chips.I had the pie and mash. The pie was lovely, however the mash had the taste and texture of instant, as it was bland and very dry. It was not freshly made mash without butter or seasoning, as this is how I eat it at home, so I certainly know the difference.

Staff were very helpful and friendly, food excellent, lovely atmosphere 10/10! Cant wait to come again.

We arrived after booking our table although we were not impressed when we learnt we were not on the books. However, after about 5 minutes they managed to squeeze us in and even moved us to a better table later on in the evening so we did not have to rush our meals. The lovely Jamie, our waiter for the night, was always happy to serve us and helped us take away a doggy bag. The steaks were not the best, and the waitress didn't even know what she was on about as she called it a 'sterling' not a 'sirloin'. Overall, the experience was pleasant and will still definitely return and will treat this as a one off as we have never had any problems before.

Unfortunately this was disappointing. Been before and was ok but this time was a serious let down. Starters were ok. Service was sloppy, as if no training for our waiter. Me and son had the rib of beef sharer but oh so fatty and not living up to expectations. That’s the overall impression.

From my first contact to book a table I knew this was going to be a good experience. The person I spoke to was very polite & professional. On our arrival today the lady behind the bar was equally as pleasant, but the icing on the cake was the lovely setting of the garden room it is stunning. We nearly all had the hanging kebabs & they were delicious but so filling we had no room for dessert! A lovely touch was a good luck dessert for our friends who are leaving the UK soon so many thanks for that. Although we had to travel a distance to get there I'm sure we will return.

The soup is homemade and always wonderful Their signature dish is roast lamb a generous portion The vegetables would make a vegetarian salivate The coffee is st the right strength A cosy dining area with very profane friendly staff Plenty car parking Won’t disappoint!

We ate in the garden room which is lovely, a great setting, but we were pressed up against the bar and had waiting staff stood by us most of the time. The food was okay, but I object to the fact you have two kitchens that food comes differently from, I understand you’re notified of this, but why bother, you’re not eating together. There’s no coordination at all, so you’re eating half an hour apart from each other. The Calzone was undercooked, which was a shame. The service was sloppy too, having to ask three times for a bill is stupid, this place needs to tighten up its act, it’s fallen into the trap popular places do, plenty of punters so low standards become acceptable because everyone’s too busy to change.

I must be missing something as lots of people appear to like it here but although the menu has loads of Pizza choices the rest is very limited and the service is shocking.Despite a mid week visit when it was half empty the bar man was too busy chatting with regulars to serve us and when we did order simple burgers they took over half an hour to come.For some reason they decline to let diners open a tab, there is an option to download there app but if you don't want to do this you have to pay as you go along.

9 of us pre booked for my twin daughters 20th Birthday family meal, the celebration was not mentioned at the time of booking. Although 6pm ish on a Friday it was very busy indeed. Nice covered extension at the back with a great visual ambience, a small courtyard on the way and the pub near the entrance looked really nice and cosy and traditional. Great service with plenty of staff, food was excellent incl. the yakitori stick starters. The pizzas were awesome full of flavour and very large, and I think reasonably priced. There was an excessive wait between pizza orders and a few mains {we knew and were warned they cannot be synchronised due to different kitchens} and an apology and bit of a refund was greatly accepted. My pizza was the best I have ever had, ever - although I have never been to Italy.The reason for our meal was revealed when asked and unexpectedly my daughters were presented with a Happy Birthday free pudding at the end - totally a nice surprise! Lots of draught beers and lagers to choose from, car park a good size but was full and parking busy nearby. A bit of a victim of its own success perhaps. I have made many reviews this is the first time I have submitted a picture.Well done to all the staff and chefs - we will return.

The food was great, the beer was cold, and the staff did an amazing job! This place had everything I could ask for.

The main two positives are that the pub is dog friendly and that it serves food all day on a Saturday.We had a couple of burgers and a drink each and the bill came to over £35. Food was nice but a little pricey and atmosphere ruined by a pub crawl group. Needs a non smoking outside section too!

Very very little gluten free options and the staff seemed to have very little knowledge about the menu. Tables were sticky and i didn’t feel comfortable. Atmosphere wasn’t great. The food was actually not too bad, I had porchetta. Also had white wine spritzer but couldn’t taste much wine in it. Doubt I would go back. If I didn’t have a gluten problem there seemed to be lots of good options and it looked quite good. So I’ve given it a so so score.

Wow this place is absolutely fantastic! Great setting, brilliant team (Darren was our waiter and he was so friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, great with the kids and just awesome), great value for money too and loads of very clever touches that all build together to a really well thought and well delivered experience. We spend a couple of weeks staying with family in Italy each year and this is the most authentic pizza I’ve had outside of Italy. We also had big time food envy watching the porchetta be delivered to another table and a lots of yakitori sticks and hanging kebabs. If only I had 3 stomachs or lived closer (we’re about 2hrs away!) although we did manage a choccy-woccy-hoo-har which was amazing. If ever heading up North we will definitely make a detour and will pray to the food gods that ones opened up down south sometime!

We had not visited for about 2 years, as on a previous visit we had been dissatisfied. However, last Monday evening both the food and the staff exceeded all expectations. The food was excellent for all 9 meals. The proportions were very large. The restaurant was very busy but the staff remained calm and all gave service with a smile! Restored my faith in this restaurant and I will be there again.

First visit to celebrate Mum's birthday, Sunday lunchtime. Lovely setting in the Longhorn restaurant. Good ale, excellent food and wonderful care and attention to make Mum feel special on her birthday. Daŕren especially knows how to look after his customers. Little pricey for every week but certainly will return for those special occasions.

From the monment we arriced upon entering the door staff attentive,courteous and friendly.This is when a pub wants to be a restsurant and pub at the sa,e time and achieves both perfectly.How can you train the staff to be so good my wife asks ,good question but the professional attitude and warmth also come from perfecy selection process.Thr food once again unbelievable garlic ckilli flatbread fantastic .followed by sorbet to refresh the pallet befor a delightful porcetta shared.that made the night superb.The range of drinks once again mindblowing with helpfullness of staff in chosing the best optionPerfect evening once again topped of by ice cream as a special brthday treat complimentary.Our first stop for a night guaranteed never to failThanks again to you lovely staff

Feel very disappointed to write his review, we raised our concerns at the time. However feel it wasn’t taken seriously.We booked early evening as we didn’t want a late meal. When we arrived the bar was packed, the young lady at the bar (1 of 7/8) behind the bar looked for our booking, which I had to point out where we were. Explained the table hadn’t been vacated and we could get drinks first. We ordered standard drinks, I asked for a Pimms and ginger, to which she struggled to comprehend and find on the till. Was told this would have to made on the cocktail bar and drought down. Couldn’t add drinks to the table as someone was on it. I waited 10 minutes for my pimms, and had to ask twice for it it. To the watch her make it herself. I then asked if the table was ready, she had to take the name again, suggested we just go up and found out ourselves. My annoyance other than the farce that was getting a drink was the fact she called me “darlin” every time.Up stairs the table wasn’t quite ready, we had to wait for that to be cleared and cleaned, a full 15 minutes after it was booked. A young lady came to take our orders, calling us “guys” it’s not TGI fridays, good evening would of sufficed. I ordered first, a burger, then my mum. She then came back to me to tell me there were no burgers (why were we not told this when we sat down). Not a problem as I usually have a back up. In the past when we have been, there has been complimentary bread, not this time. Although a large party behind us did. Out mains started to arrive around 7.40pm, the fish and chips were hot and the stroganoff was too. My husbands chips however were cold and had to be sent back and I was still waiting for my pizza. At 7.50 I was ready to cancel my meal and watch everyone else eat as no one informed us that there maybe a wait for pizza. Another table had to ask for theirs.We informed Chris we weren’t happy and would like to speak to a manager, which he said he was and that the pub was busy. We ate and my husband went to sort the bill, at this point Chris should of had an offer ready for him but was still going on about being busy, The Bulls head has always been busy. A discount was offered and accepted.What should of happened when we were seated by Chris, was told they were very busy this evening and there maybe a wait and there is demand for the pizzas.It left a sour taste in our mouths, having had such lovely meals for our wedding anniversary and my husbands 40th birthday last year.And I was so looking forward to the gelato

Good range of choice for food and always enjoyed what I have had served. Waiter service is friendly and good humoured. Environment is enhanced by outside in effect with plenty of plants about. The building itself has character and old charm about it. Really pleasant place to be. Welcoming to families and lovely touches for special occasions!

Fabulous food and great service. Family birthday meal for 10. Everyone was more than happy with their meals, bread and oil and lemon sorbets served as complimentary and a decorated dessert for the birthday boy. Our waiter was attentive helpful and friendly. Have been here before and will be back. Excellent evening

I have been here a few times and the bulls head is always consistant. Love the pizza’s!!! They’re always hugeeee, super filling and tasty. I also had a parma violet cocktail which tasted delish and a expresso martini for desert. Staff were lovely, good atmosphere. Would always recommend to others!

Never fails to be anything other than delicious I think I could actually live on Yakitori sticks A visual and taste extravaganza

Really fantastic menu, lots to choose from, I had the ti chicken really large portion, rest of party were very pleased with their meals. Really good service, provided by Darren, very attentive, several times asked, if everything alright. He was also very efficient, dealing with our party of eight. Been here several times as they have such an extensive menu. Atmosphere, brilliant too in the garden room. Love this place, always book for special occasions. Thank you again Darren, for your service.

We had fabulous food which was fresh, hot and very tasty. The staff were polite, helpful and speedy. The pizza is stone baked and had an excellent taste. The fish and chips were delicious and very nicely presented. We will return as it remains a favourite for us.Children are also made very welcome

Quality of food: excellent. Quality of service: brilliant. Serving time: not too quick or slow. Atmosphere and environment: cosy and modern, the garden room is especially beautiful. Portions: large! Selection of food and drink: incredibly vast. Value for money: amazing. A fantastic restaurant!

one of the best paces i have eaten by far .service is great and food is spot on.went on a first date here and it was magical , have since taken family members for birthdays and there really is something for every one .have to book well in advance to get a table (very busy)

Visited last night for a late Mothers day meal. The manager talked us through the menu. We decided not to order pizza because we wanted all of our food to arrive together. The gammon, mac and cheese and chicken sticks was amazing. I ordered the beef strogonoff which sadly was very bland. The chips was very good. Wrap up if you eat in the garden room because it is cold when people go through the door to the garden. Tom who served us was very attentive and courteous.

Have visited here before when busy and it was fine. But arrived around 3.00 for a meal. Went to the bar to get drinks waited nearly 10 mins for bar staff, three people their before me. Guy arrived excuse had to get coffee for diner. With the prices at the level here, you would expect regular bar staff on. Saying that after this ordered food. Food is good, but pizza came first, and again Fish and chips 10 mins later. Really when you Oder and sit together you expect food to arrive at the same time. Overall less satisfied than last. I know this may seem like moaning, but this is very good establishment, you pay for what you get, so I don’t want standards slipping.

Went for a birthday meal and wasn't disappointed. It was very busy and I'm glad we booked (it was a Saturday night). Food was great and the service excellent. Nice ice cream treat for the birthday boy. We were in the garden room, which could of perhaps been a little warmer, but then it was March. There was so much food we asked for it to be boxed up to take home.

We all had an amazing meal and it was great in a lovely environment. It was a bit dark but the atmosphere was great would definitely come again :)

Mum and I went for dinner last night.We went upstairs for dinner not the best place very hot and no window. However the server Zoe was lovely and caring about her customers. Before we ordered we got offered water and had bread with an oil complimentary which was very nice. We had a bbq cheese burger and stroganoff. They were both beautiful and so nice. After we had a Giant Cookie which was very nice and warm. The Chocolate orange ice cream really tasted like it it was lovely.Defiantly recommend however would defiantly say go to the Garden Room to eat as spacious, windows and lovely as been before to eat there.Thank you

Lovely quaint pub , advisable to book but have to say food was a big let down.Had heard rave reviews so couldn’t wait to try it but I wouldn’t rush back.Waited over 45 minutes for food to be served and then it wasn’t overly hot and my husbands fillet skewers were really chewy and couple pieces had fat on which surprised him as it was suppose to be fillet. Myself and a friend ordered bbq chicken skewers and they were burnt on one side and the chicken was dry.The dining area I sat in was the garden room which was really pleasant but it was cold and myself and friend and another couple on a different table put coats on towards the end, although the opposite side of the garden room was considerably warmer.The cocktails are nice and served in cute things like mini bath tubs and witches brew has glitter in it but that in itself wouldn’t make me rush back I’m afraid.

We went to The Bulls Head to celebrate my daughter’s birthday and we had a fantastic time.The food was fabulous, the service was beyond excellent and there was a lovely ambience in the restaurant.If you want a special dining experience then go to The Bulls Head at Repton!A big thank you to all the staff for making it such a wonderful occasion!

We have been here many times but not for maybe two years.On way back home from Derby called in for lunch.Had not changed much since last visit over two years ago, many dishes on menu. Unchanged (thankfully) and the wood fired pizza oven still there!Like other times we had a starter and a pizza to share and a glass of wine each.Both arrived quickly and were very tasty indeed.Service was prompt and friendly, the young staff all working hard as it was very busy when we were there at around 1pm.

decided to visit here as somewhere new to have dinner, we sat in the garden room which was really pretty, loved the addition of the blossom tree. starters were really tasty, only thing is the garlic bread is too salty and I couldn’t eat a lot of it due to that. The mains were tasty and the staff are really nice. We were served by Beth who was really informative and very personable, can tell she works hard. Overall we had a good time and will be dining again.

Awfull !!!!!! waited 2 hours for main course, some starters arrived, then given to wrong guests food cold when it did arrive, refused to pay for the beef stroganoff meals as these were inedible, on arriving we had to walk through a fog of cigarette smoke and e cigarette fumes to get into the restaurant, e mailed the owner to get his comments but no reply.Would definitely not be using this restaurant again.

Was recommended this pub for lunch by my office manager.Fantastic welcome from Euean the young lad who was a great host.We booked the Garden room, wow, lovely tranquil atmosphere with tress, plants, twinkly lights etc.Euean advised us that should we opt for mains from different menus ie, one from steak, burgers etc and the other from the pizza menus, then it’s likely meals will be served ten minutes apart due to the pizza cooking quicker, so be prepared to wait!We both opted for the amazing chicken piri burger with Edam bacon and real chips with a side of coleslaw. The food was out of this world! The chicken was well seasoned/ spiced, succulent, tender, lots of cheese and bacon..soooo tasty. I had a pint of peroni, not bad although a little watery however, the wide’s New Zealand Sauvignon Blank Dashwood went down well.So, dessert. We shared an great crime brûlée...out of this world.At £42 great value and defo going back, with family.

Visited a few times recently and I cannot fault both the atmosphere and the food, both are always of a high standard. The garden room is stunning and just an awesome place to eat. When you are in the garden room though, be prepared to wait a while for your drinks, it's the only thing they don't get right, it's such a shame as it's hard to find fault with anything else, but drinks take an age to get to you, so order well before you need a refill.

Unfortunately I have no choice but to take to Trip Advisor to discuss how awful our recent meal at the Bulls Head was. I directly contacted management 3 weeks ago now but I have been ignored. I’ve previously been to the Bulls Head on many occasions and always been impressed on every visit. I had booked this evening to take my girlfriend out for our first valentine celebrations together. The restaurant is around a half an hour drive from home so we made the effort. We ordered Camembert to start - a favourite of ours. I’ve had the Camembert every time I visit so I knew what to expect. I was slightly alarmed when it got to the table - the bread was burnt and the Camembert was really congealed - similar to the texture of cottage cheese or gone-off yogurt. We had to send this back because it absolutely wasn’t up to standard. We were presented with a 2nd Camembert but this was frustratingly exactly the same - burnt bread and thick, congealed cheese. The consistency was jelly-like...not like the smooth and gooey type I have had before. At this point, we had to send the food back again. We were offered something else but chose to wait for our main - we were worried that our main was already cooking so didn’t want this to burn. I was quite disappointed when we had to wait a further 45 minutes for our main course. During this time, I noticed that another table had sent their food back due to it being burnt. I wonder whether the chef had the oven turned too high and food was being rushed out? I was confused. When our main arrived...we were quite fed up. I had the cauliflower meatballs and my partner ordered rump steak. My food was burnt and very bland - it lacked salt and spice. My partner’s food was also burnt - her steak was medium to well rather than medium rare as requested. Her chips were also hard and very oily - again, this led us to question whether food was being rushed out. Our waiter asked us how our food was - as my partner responded to say she was just trying it - the waiter walked away...I presume he must have misheard her. I also hadn’t been given opportunity to give my feedback - I was about to tell him that the meal was substandard. Both my partner and I left over half of our food. We couldn’t eat it. This is not in our character and we always clear our plates. We requested the bill and declined offers of desserts - we wanted to leave as quickly as possible. Our bill came to £44.00 - we promptly paid this and left. I’m absolutely gutted really that we have had this experience. When we look back on our first valentines together we will always remember the poor experience we had here.The food was absolutely APPALLING. I doubt I would ever return. Left a very sour taste in our mouths. EMBARRASSING for the Bulls Head as a brand. Poor shocking quality. It never used to be like this.Save yourselves the money and go somewhere else.

Table booked for 4.15 pm ,waited 1.15 minutes for food to arrive.Our 2 friends received their food & our food arrived when they had finished.When it did arrive it was literally stone cold.The manager was nice & asked if we would like a fresh meal,we opted for that & was told it would take about 15 minutes to prepare. 30 minutes later the manager came back to us to tell us we would have to wait a little longer.we eventually received our food almost 50 minutes from the 're order. The manager did take the cost of the mains & desserts for all of our party off the bill.The service was absolutely terrible, glasses were not removed from the table until we asked staff to do so.Also had to ask for cutlery to eat our main course with.As we were eating dessert & drinking coffee the young waitress was taking our plates away & then brought us the bill while we were still eating. Not impressed at all .So from arriving having booked our table at 4.14pm & just wanting to spend a couple of hours there we left at 7.51pm immediately ater finishing our food.We will not be returning here again.we choose the place going on the positive reviews by friends & the online reviews.A very negative experience for all of our party.

Pizzas are great. Menu is good and a bit different. This is a busy pub at weekends ... book for restaurant or garden room... take your chance at the bar... if you’re patient you will get a table.

Booked for a party of 8 for family birthdays, waited an hour for meals to arrive after ordering, ordered more drinks part way through meal they took 30 mins to arrive. Waiter seemed rushed and confused. Very Disapointed as this used to be a great venue, but seems to have outgrown itself. Not likely to go back .

The Bulls Head, has it all. Real Ales, a good choice of wines and an excellent menu. The bulls head prides itself on the oven based pizza with a wide variety to choose from. It also has a garden area that accommodates various trees under cover where you can dine in the comfort and warmth available. Inside the pub itself, it lends itself to log burners and open fires, enjoy your evening whilst sat in comfort on the leather sofas allowing you and your friends/partner to sit in the comfort of a class pub/restaurant...

My friends love this place but it doesn’t do it for me.Menu has far too many carb loaded meals with little other option.Staff not as warm, welcoming or friendly as I would like and inefficient in my experience. It feels like a pub without a captain

We came here for my sisters birthday and it was fantastic. The venue was uniquely decorated, totally different to what I was expecting! The staff were brilliant and very attentive. The cocktails looked fab and tasted great too and the food was excellent. It was a shame they didn’t have any banana ice cream the night we visited ... however we will use it as a reason to come again!

We came home a bit disappointed after our recent visit. Food was good but service was not great- was an hour before we even ordered any food and when the food arrived it was just dumped on the table and we didn’t even get a ‘enjoy your meal’ or asked if we wanted sauces. Everything after that was just even slower. We used to come here all the time and the service was always brilliant but just felt a bit irritated after this. I hope this was just a one off!

Met friends for lunch, bar was quite busy but not overly for Saturday, food was disappointing the mushrooms were scarce on the open mushroom sandwich and the ham for eggs Benedic was fatty. Not sure I will go back to the bulls head again with their sister pub the Swan being close by and after eating there a few weeks ago again with friends the food was great and the place busy and welcoming unlike today’s experience.

Amazing 50th Birthday family lunch last Saturday in The Garden Restaurant followed by cake and drinks in the bar for extended family and friends. Staff were fantastic and very accommodating; worked very well as a team. The food and drinks were, as always, perfect. I'm so glad I chose one of my favourite eating places in my week end celebrations. Be back very soon!

As a regular, calling in at least once a week, we were very disappointed with today's visit.The welcome from the young man behind the bar was good, however, the pizza we ordered and the service was not up to scratch.We ordered pizza which when delivered to the table was nowhere near as good as the previous ones we have eaten here with a vastly reduced topping.There had obviously been no morning prep prior to opening as we then had to wait for cutlery, then ask for napkins, we had no condiments and when querying why we had been given a steak knife to cut the pizza were told that the pizza cutters were up stairs and had to be washed.By the time we started to eat the pizza was cold...Service was poor during our visit with pizzas waiting to be served sitting on the pass a long time.Not up to the usually good service and food quality.Please get it right guys....

Went with friends on a Friday night it was insanely busy which is good, food was not what i expected we all had the mini sticks for a starter which were small kebabs a good selection of choices on the menu then we had the larger kebabs for our main course they were served to our table on large suspended skewers which was really different and the food again was really good wine lovely our red wine served at the right temperature good night out.

Got drinks looked at menu, then asked for Sunday lunch menu to be told main menu only. Really disappointed so had drinks and left we love this place but left dis heartened

On arrival we were unsure where to go or who to ask about our table, the staff all were busy so we waited at the bar and asked there. We had to wait a short while for our table but not to long. When we got to our table we were stunned by how beautiful the garden room was and had balloons on our table as it was one of our party’s birthday. The waitress who served us was very nice, but seemed busy. We waited around an hour for our food, without an apology, whilst watching people who turned up after us getting there food first. I had the Cajun chicken and Brie burger, no Brie on the burger, just what seemed like Philadelphia with herbs in. I could not eat it. Chips however were very nice. The birthday girl found a hair in her food, they didn’t offer to replace this, just my chicken burger and the food with the hair taken off the bill. Such a beautiful place with a nice atmosphere just a shame they over book and the food is not up to scratch.
