The Bulls Head Innkeeper's Lodge Meriden Restaurant in Rugby

Amazing food and great service. Food came really fast and was delicious. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and the server was friendly and warming. Would recommend to all my friends

We came to try their new winter menu and was not disappointed, the new dirty burger with the cheese and extra beef was loved by all. Drinks were pricey, but everywhere is these days

Request seating you want is the biggest tip I can give as we were escorted to an awful position with chairs too low for the table cramped next to the stairs to the hotel. Didn't help we were next to a cackling woman who was so loud... jeez! Meal was fine but the experience was a little naff due to where they sat us.

Food okay, but not worth the hefty price tag. Extremely disappointed with the tall bar lady (brown hair in a bun) who delivered some of the worst service I have ever been subjected to in all of my existence. I have never been made to feel like more of a nuisance in a pub - felt extremely unwelcoming and almost hostile towards us for something as mundane as trying to pay the bill. Will not be returning.

Been here a few times now, as we like it so much & we were greated warmly by the staff. It's really nice when somebody remembers you, it makes you feel valued as a customer. We always start with a cocktail & finish with a cocktail, which are always delicious & the food in between was simply amazing. We were served by Bradley who is knowledgeable, friendly & polite, an absolute credit to The Bull's Head. I'm sure it won't be too long before we come back!

Went to Bulls Head with friends on Friday 2 August. It was not busy we waited for half an hour for our drinks order to be taken my drink was not what I ordered waited another 15 mins for it to be changed. I had the chicken dish, very poor quality, expensive and not worth the money. Staff were very unfriendly. Went to the bar to have service charge taken off our bill, may as well have been invisible, had to get waitress to do it in the end. Our waitress was friendly and polite but the poor girl seemed to be doing all the work. Woukd not recommend this place

It was my brothers birthday and we had been to David Austins Rose Garden for the day . We returned via the Village of Meriden where we called in at the Bulls Head Hotel for Dinner to end a great day, Both Sean and I were very impressed with the service we got and the lovely a la carte dinner we had. We got the the venue at just after 5pm on Friday 5th July and had dinner just after 6pm in the restaurant. The food was first class better that a 5 star hotel we had been to in St Pancreas in London. Sean had the grilled prawns on the specials board and I had the goats cheese starter. We both had the lamb in red wine gravy and then Sean had the cheese board and me the trio of deserts. Both of us did not have alcohol as we were not up for it and I was driving the Non alcoholic drink selection was copious Sean had two pots of tea he loves a cuppa.I have to say the food was exceptional and the staff nothing was too much trouble . Can we please thank the lovely lady who set up our tab and the young man who served us both of them made Sean and I most welcome. I had passed the Hotel from 1985 on the bus from Birminghanm and had always wanted to go in . It was so worth in . It was not stuffy or formal The bose music system was excellent and the background music perfect . Thank you all but particularly the two people I have mentioned we were Tab 9 . As it was spur of the moment too. We loved the time we went as it was quite too. 10/10 on all accounts .

Aayush & Charlie very friendly, helpful & looked after us very well. Lovely place, dog friendly, which is a plus, spacious, nice background music. Plenty of outside space/tables. The food was tasty & hot & good choice on menu. Will definately come again.

We had a great meal here last week. Lucy and her team made us feel so so welcome, our whole family really enjoyed the long afternoon we spent here. The lunch time menu was great value, the steak sandwich was a highlight for me.

Amazing dinner, we went off the wine and dine menu and our meals were fantastic. The rimapere sauv blanc was delicious and the desserts on offer were amazing. Hats off to the chefs and waiters who looked after us

It was an amazing night out with the family, owen was a perfect host and my steak was perfectly cooked. Would highly recommend this place, best in the village.

Our early evening meal with friends was very pleasant. Attentive and polite staff (thanks Joel). Good food, well prepared and served. Our first time, but we will be back.

This is by far my favourite restaurant & we try to come here as often as we can. The atmosphere is always welcoming & relaxing This time we chose the scallops, which were cooked to perfection as was the steak. What a fabulous idea to have a cocktail with your dessert, I haven't seen this on any other menu. We were served by Bradley who is very knowledgeable, helpful & friendly. Well done to everyone, we will be back soon.

Lovely food with a really nice waiter called Owen. The hole party enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Had something different for a change with a celeriac steak. Nice for a change and will have again. Well recommended.

A very charming pub/restaurant. I had a lovely meal and the service was faultless. I would always recommend this place.

Second time and it was great. Same excellent service as before. Highly recommend it. The deputy manager Bradley was most helpful too. 5 *

Lovely venue with great food and excellent service! Bradley in particular was exceptional, very helpful and friendly! Would highly recommend.

Went on Friday last, had 2 fish and chips the fish was rank!! Wet and had a funny smell. Left most of mine and we have had upset stomachs ever since. First time I have been able to leave the house today. Monday 12 Will not recommend or go back again

Booked a table for 8 people and I have to say we had a very lovely experience. The food was top notch and the service was fantastic. The restaurant was at full capacity when we arrived and left but this did not affect the fantastic service. Really pleased we booked and we will be booking again soon.

Went out for Mother’s Day, the food was amazing and the service was even better. Ram who served us was just brilliant, couldn’t do enough for us and was great with our little one too which made us feel at ease.

Staying at a hotel nearby whose review will be nowhere near as favourable, I decamped to the Bulls Head which was a five minute walk away. Friendly staff, well kept beers, and the food was very good. I had the chipotle chicken and the steak and Malbec pie, both were very good and my only negative would be the main course, the portion size of the mains was miserly. Shout out to my server for the evening, Joel, who did a great job and just needs a little more work on his banter/people skills, he came across a bit reticent at times bit that comes with experience and coaching.

Lovely Sunday roast and Hannah (our waitress) was brilliant. Go to choice for a meet-in-the-middle lunch or dinner. Great food and wonderful service as always!

Food was excellent and Joel was a fabulous waiter and Michael was the perfect host. Enjoy coming to the Bulls Head when we can, always a great atmosphere.

Had a fantastic meal here on Saturday night, couldn't fault a thing! Staff were friendly, food and drinks delicious, and the atmosphere was cosy. Will definitely be back!

Came in for dinner and got incredible service from Owen who was very helpful. The food was delightful and the atmosphere even better. Will definitely be coming back again

Really disappointing. The Wi-Fii took absolute age to connect and despite being in a queue, the bar staff closed the bar prompt on 11pm, despite being hotel residents. It is such a shame that the overall experience is dissolved by so few as most of...

Really enjoyed our meal last night, the fire was blazing and we had food in the bar with our friends and their dog. There are dog treats on the bar and the staff are very welcoming to the dogs. The steak and malbec pie and...

Visited the pub on Tuesday evening. Dined with friends and our server Natasha talked us expertly through the menu options. I’m a vegetarian and chose celeriac steak on her recommendation which was delicious. My friends are all meat eaters and their choices included fillet steak...

Popped in for a drink Friday 26th January after visiting the The Barn. Approx 3.00pm. Obviously off peak. Relaxed atmosphere, with a welcoming open fire. Ordered a pint of Guinness & a glass of Shiraz, (large), £13.75. Average I assumed, (without looking at the price...

Lovely atmosphere, and good food. Pub was very busy, but had great service from Owen. Look forward to returning soon.

Always a lovely welcome from the team. Dogs are very welcome and Charlie always makes a fuss of every dog. Super service from Charlie, Lucy and the team.

A lovely setting and atmosphere in this Olde English pub. We were served by Jay who did an excellent job; polite, attentive and prompt. All our food dishes were lovely and tasty so thank-you to Jo the chef. Very good value too.

Had a great breakfast the other morning, me and my family fully enjoyed are visit nice and clean and worth the money! Would definitely recommend coming here for breakfast again!

Lovely local pub for decent food and a nice glass of wine. We were served my Joey, a very polite young man.

This spot is great for a dinner with family or family. I went there with family and the food, ambiance and the drinks were amazing. Would highly recommend it!!

Such a great place & Dog friendly too Lovely food and staff are so nice. Charley looked after us today and always makes sure Tillie gets a treat (or 2!). Would definitely recommend

Excellent food and great prompt service despite being busy. Shout-out to Ramkumar and his team for looking after us and recommending some great choices of food and wine.

Visited on Saturday evening, dined in the restaurant and had exceptional service from Charlie, the meal was perfectly cooked, and the cherry on top was the beautiful cheesecake trio Will be back again soon

We had a lovely evening service and food were great. The server we had Natasha was very knowledgeable on the menu and nothing was too much trouble.

A very well-presented pub and restaurant. The food is superb, the choice of drinks is comprehensive and the service is excellent.

We love The Bulls Head for our family get togethers. It's a lovely atmosphere and the menu is fantastic. The staff cant do enough to accommodate you. We were a large party and we had fantastic service as always. Special mention to Bradley who is...

Bradley has made our dining experience memorable! He recommended the best cocktails which tasted absolutely fabulous. The food was delicious and the service was perfect and speedy.

Christmas Lunch review. The welcome as soon as we entered was very friendly and even knew my name, Christmas card was a lovely thought too. I’ve never not cooked on Christmas Day and this was an absolutely amazing experience. I’m really fussy with foods too,...

Our family New Years meal was lovely, there was 11 of us with a few dietary requirements. Although it was a set menu for New Year’s day the head Chef Nick was very accommodating for our family needs and cooked some amazing food. The waitresses...

Come for Breakfast after busy Christmas. Place didnt look busy, we had nice table. Food came quick and we were hungry. We add also coffee and that was Perfect morning. Thank You to kitchen team.

We had been looking forward to coming back here & we weren't disappointed. Ambience was jolly & welcoming, service was very good (thank you Bradley) & food was amazing. This is one of my favourite places & I would recommend to anyone.

Restaurant looked dirty and untidy. Only 3 staff who were covering the bar and restaurant. Food was all overcooked, cold and poorly presented. So disappointed as the building looks so pretty.

Just returned from a fabulous Christmas Day lunch at The Bulls Head - it was just great. From the welcome, to the service and the food itself - you could not fault it. It was so good - we’ve booked again for next year. Take...

Absolutely fabulous service on Christmas Day! Staff were very busy but still very friendly and happy to help! Made special adjustments for my son who doesn’t like Christmas dinner, made him a special pizza! They even gave me a refund when they realised I had...

Popped in on a whim and was seated straight away. Plumped for their festive menu and what a treat! The scallops, turkey, and Xmas pud were all to die for! Hopefully be able to come back again before the menu ends.

First class food and first class service. We were served by Owen who was lovely and really looked after us. Highly recommend.

Our host Charley provided excellent service and a good sense of humour! We generally visit on a Sunday because the roast dinners are exceptional and a decent portion size. The location is also convenient for some our visiting friends from the north, on their way...

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch. Very attentive staff especially Charley, the assistant manager. Her knowledge knows no bounds

Dinner for 7. Lovely ambiance, warm and inviting, great service, good food and overall a great evening. The restaurant was busy but the staff seemed well organised, very friendly and capable.

My wife and I had an excellent lunch, yesterday, at the Bull’s Head Meriden. Our server, Beth, was welcoming. Her cheerful and pleasant efficiency during a very busy lunchtime must prove a great asset to the business! The menu offered a good selection of vegetarian...

Me and my boyfriend visited on the 23/11/23! I am 57 and have been travelling here since I was 4 with my parents! It’s always outstanding! We both ordered the sticky chicken starter, there was hardly any sauce and it had a lot of gristle...

Relaxed dining no rush the table is yours for the evening. An extensive menu to choose from. I think Polish manager was very polite

We had a Sunday dinner here and it was absolutely lovely! The meat was fantastic and everything else was to match. The waiter was a great lad. Couldn't fault anything!

Lovely place. Food was nice but could have been a little warmer. Service was poor, very slow, never asked us about allergies or told us what was off the menu. Didn't order dessert because we didn't want to wait like we did for our mains....

Had a table booking for 8pm. Stood there for 20 minutes and wasn't even acknowledged. Many people around us in the same boat. Walked out.

Booked a room for 2 nights, so glad it wasn’t for longer. Mouldy and frayed window blind. A jar in place to keep window open. No lid for the toilet. No desk or dressing table. Damp streaks down bathroom walls. Shower head that was loose....

Gorgeous food - best fillet steak in years! Highly recommend. Special evening made even more special by Bradley. Look forward to returning soon.

We were served by Owen who was very professional, polite & witty. Food was excellent and the place is clean with a lovely ambience.

Nearly 3 hours to be served a 2 course lunch! Very slow service. Soggy sandwich and although given an apology as we were leaving, was not offered a replacement when told of the issue or deducted from bill. Not cheap and expected much better!

We visited on 4th October 2023 and what an Amazing experience (again). We had the lovely Michelle who was very friendly and ensured that our visit was a memorable one. The restaurant and pub was extremely busy but that did not influence the service in...

Popped in for some drinks and nibbles on the off-chance and loved every second. It was a busy Saturday evening, but they accommodated the 5 of us no problem. Delicious pizzas and Chipotle chicken. 10/10!!

Amazing service Owen was a great waiter and accommodated all our needs. We came for my grandads birthday and would defiantly come again couldn’t recommend more!
