The Pied Bull in Sevenoaks

Use this place frequently, good food. Need to put the heating on as last couple of visits we have been cold! Getting a bit expensive now for pub grub, and they have added a "voluntary" 10 per cent service charge to the bill.

food was ok, fish could have been cooked longer and had to wait over 35mins. reasonably priced, and service at bar was fantastic.

This was our first visit to this former coaching inn and it certainly won’t be our last. It happened to be the second day of a new menu which was extensive enough to accommodate all tastes and appetites. A former reviewer who castigated the sandwiches should return if the 4th earl’s innovation on the next table was anything to go by. Mrs B’s fish and chips ticked all the boxes. If you want really thin and crispy batter you need to travel to Vietnam or Laos. The chef here has got the nack, so stay in Kent. Chips, crispy outside, fluffy interior and hot. I kept taking forkfuls of the minted pea puree. My lamb shank was of good proportions and the bed of mash was creamy. It, along with the fish and chips, was well presented. Welcoming staff and reasonable prices - mine host even suggested I needn’t pay the service charge (which I normally don’t), but I softened under her charms and coughed up.

Went as a group Sunday Roast was excellent, good value, staff friendly.

Always go here after a track day at brands hatch lovely village

Premises was clean and tidy. Staff were helpful however they run out of choice of food leaving limited choice.

Nice spot with great food and good service

If your having Lunch don't have breakfast!!. Lovely pie great fish cakes.Nice staff perhaps a bit expensive but won't stop us from going again 👍

Lovely pub with outdoor seating area. The sandwiches were huge, and the chips so tasty!

Very welcoming. Asked if they had angostura bitters, grenadine but when I asked for Ginger beer I said yes please. This made my night. A lady wanted people to dance so asked for a Latin tune. Spoke Spanish. The lady chose a good one. The lady was a great mover but I need to get fitter.i did dance around the pole. Learning some moves from Mike. Good learning. Friendly staff and customers. Garden was lovely to sit in to get some fresh air. Hope to go again?

Dog friendly and the staff are very welcoming!

Popped in with the wife for a couple after work. Lovely welcome from a very nice lady behind the bar. 3 nice pints of Inch's Cider & a couple of wines for the wife. I've popped in a couple of times a year over the last 20yrs on my way home from Dartford. Will 100% continue to pop in.

Booked a table for 5pm on Saturday for family meal. Pub was quiet but service was slow and had to chase to place orders for desserts. Also disappointed that despite limited options for desserts, they had very limited portions available.

Great local village pub. Lovely walled beer garden at the back, plenty of tables and space. Pub hired out for a birthday where they had a live band in the garden and DJ indoors. Friendly staff and great service. Drinks not expensive. Highly recommend visiting.

Had a great meal with family in Pied Bill on Friday Great food, service and atmosphere Really like the new menu Thanks for a very happy evening

This is the second time visiting the pub after having lunch here on Wednesday 8th May. The service was good, the food was lovely on both occasions even though my friends was a tad worried on Wednesday after almost saying the barmaid that served us may have been here as long as the pub lol. Overall I highly recommend here but cannot make it my local as I live too far away. To all the staff thank you for your great service.

Went there with group of friends for Christmas lunch . They had run out of Turkey despite knowing we were coming for Christmas lunch ! Very disappointed. No roast meat on offer so ended up with chicken skewers or steak . Dessert was also disappointing as they were still semi frozen . We were offered some obey off our bill after complaining. Won’t visit again .

Great service wonderful food definitely recommended

Lovely pub, great menu. Unfortunately, there was an hour wait for food, I will go back and review once I've eaten

Only popped in for a quick half, very pleasant.

We love coming to the pied bull. It’s a great local pub but without the local atmosphere you get at some, you’re always made to feel welcome. Staff are lovely and food is always great although Iain outdid himself with his homemade beef burgers, almost go as far as saying best burger I’ve ever had!

Very nice pub, fantastic vegan fish and chips , dog friendly and very friendly staff

Attended a wake at The Pied Bull. There was plenty of food, with a good variety to choose from. All was very tasty. Service was efficient and staff attentive and friendly. Would recommend for this type of event. Parking available in car park too.

Burger was dry and crumbly and the bacon in the burger was rubbery but the drinks are cheap and the staff are nice

We were extremely well received (a group of ramblers) and the food and drinks were very good

Had a fantastic lunch at Pied Bull! The food was excellent, generous in portion, and the service was exceptionally friendly. Highly recommend!

Good food (best burger I've ever had!) nice pub, reasonably priced. Recommended.......

It's our Wednesday place to go for lunch as often as we can. Love the pub and the food. Staff are smiley and friendly.

Very cold inside ,Sunday roast only average roast potatoes were nice hot & crispy rest of the food lukewarm

A nice place for lunch. A good variety of food, although the sandwiches are a bit overpriced. One of our group had to take the crusts off his sandwich because they were rock hard. It was very cold in there.

Boxing day bike meet. Very busy.

Went for a business Christmas lunch, starters and mains average, we then waited over 45 mins for desert in an empty pub, my Christmas pudding was a tiny disc that had been frazzled in the microwave, tasted like rubber. Although previous years were better than this, we wont be having our Christmas lunch there again.

Great range of beer and good food

Really great lunch last Sunday. Excellent quality food and big portions. Genuinely the best mushy peas I've ever had!! Great prices. A shame there was no veggie toast option but you can't have everything?

Came here on Thursday and the staff are so friendly and the food is amazing I would 100% recommend for lunch and dinner especially with the Christmas menu out now thank you so much for a lovely meal

Went for a few beers this afternoon And have to say their ploughman’s was absolutely delightful every single mouthful of it was superb and at £18 to share for two was very reasonable. Service was good, worth a trip people :)

One of the best burgers we’ve ever had! Nice garden and service, would definitely recommend

I celebrated my birthday here with family and friends. It was wonderful. The food was fabulous, the staff went out of their way to cater for us and the atmosphere was cosy and relaxed. I can't thank you all enough, it was just perfect.

Friendly...lovely food and service, best pub in the area welcoming to cyclist's

First time I had come here for a Sunday roast. What an amazing dinner it was. The staff where really helpful and friendly. Both the mangers where amazing and made me feel so welcome that I will be definitely be coming back again. Thank you see you all soon Mark Whitney xx

Wow, sandwiches have halved in size and no crisps at all this time. Last visit noticeably smaller sandwiches but this time needed to eat when I got home!

The Pie I had was very disappointing, it looked like it had been under a heat lamp for too long, the pastry was hard and the filling was dried out. Our friends meals were ok but nothing special.

Great place for drinks and food had lunch and Sunday roast lunch both times food was delicious lovely atmosphere friendly staff

Staff were lovely and very helpful. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Great service and would definitely be coming back soon.

My boyfriend and I popped in yesterday after a long walk with our dog and we were starving. We both had the burger and it was quite honestly one of the best we've ever had. Homemade, at least an inch thick and cooked medium rare. It absolutely melted in the mouth. The staff were lovely and helpful! Two very happy customers. We'll definitely be visiting again!

A little treasure hidden at Eynsford village. Great pub with great food, service 10 at 10. I strongly recommend the place and I will return for sure. Great place.

Great food, really welcoming and relaxing atmosphere! Fish & chips and the Ploughman’s 👌👌👌

First time there but very nice on everything from service to food. Nice location too with plenty of parking available.

We have used the restaurant at the Pied Bull for a number of years and have never been disappointed and once again the food was fantastic (especially the fish cakes} and would like to thank the owners and staff for their first class service I would highly recommend this pub and restaurant

Great food and more importantly great beer.

Arrived recently after booking the day before, and on arrival was told i would have to move my car, which would have been half way through our meal as the car park was booked for another group of diners...Pub car park booked ?????? Really is my money not as good as anyone else's. As you may know the parking in the locality is sparse and if you have someone in your party who maybe frail, to get as close as you can is a bonus. Sad as on principle we decided to spend our money elsewhere, someone who doesn't have silly rules as above.

I booked dinner fort wo for this evening yesterday. Nothing was mentioned about the car park being booked for a group of bikers. So on arrival I was delighted to see a near empty car park ,especially as we had made several abortive visits previously with family and there was no parking. However on entering the pub was advised you will need to move your car at 7. 30 as the car park is fully booked for the bikers. Had I been told this yesterday we would have found a space and walked to the pub without having to feel rushed to be out by 7.30. Such a shame as we really love this pub and they have a great menu but out of principle we decided to leave and go elsewhere. Sorry but after yet another abortive visit we will no longer be trying again.

We hired The Pied Bull for a private function. The Buffet food was excellent, our guest all commented on how good it was.... The bar staff were excellent.... Good time was had by all

We had a table for 10 today for Father’s Day, the food wasn’t good at all, roast beef was extremely tough, fish and chips over cooked, kids meals also over done, staff were nice though, this is the third time we have been here and the food has been rough so won’t be returning.

Saturday 17th June Celebrated my 60th Birthday. We hired the whole pub for the evening, Lucy couldn't have been more helpful with the organisation... Everyone enjoyed the buffet food, & the bar staff were amazing..........

Fantastic pub with great staff and a brilliant beer garden out the back 👌

Food awful. Ordered very overpriced half chicken, fries and salad at over £15 after a lengthy wait at bar, despite not being particularly busy. Food took ages to come out and chicken looked like it had been in oven for so long it was totally dried up and almost inedible as were the fries which were equally over cooked and just laden with fat and more like crisps than fries, salad was basic leaves and covered in unpleasant dressing. Not a difficult dish to make you would think!

19 of us and we all had a lovely meal. Was so nice to not be rushed - friendly staff, great food and nice garden

Delicious food served promptly and with a friendly manner

Had a lovely meal and drink, staff were friendly.

Perfect country pub, great location, super friendly attentive staff and delicious food 👍

Charming pub. Had a nice ploughmans.

Very nice pub. Just went in for a drink and staff great finding us a cab number. Thanks

Lovely welcome in this village pub and very pleased with the quality of the food. Will definitely return

Bought a ploughmans lunch and it was huge! Worth the money. Very pleasant pub.

I've been here 3 or 4 times now and I have always been very impressed! The daily specials are really well priced for the portion size you get. The staff were very friendly with my extremely active and exploratory 13 month old daughter. The service was prompt and I will definitely be returning. My only gripe is that the beer garden was out of action today, which seemed a shame given the lovely weather, but hopefully it will be back open soon.

Booked this for a group of friends based on the website menu. At the time of visiting the menus didn't match which was a real shame. The table menu is no better than other large chains with cutlery in its name. Food quality was average. Food taste was equally average. The staff were excellent and the venue was good too.

Good food, shame that a few dishes weren't available. Would definitely go back.

Staff and food are absolutely fantastic .. stopped off on a whim .. not disappointed..

Friendly pub, good service, range of ales

I was looking forward to trying the Sunday Roast here but it was such a let down. The Yorkshire was flat, the meat overcooked, and the only veg were boiled carrots and peas, without any butter or seasoning whatsoever. There were 2 giant roasties - thank goodness they were seasoned well because nothing else was. It was very basic. A real shame as the staff were lovely.

Lovely service and great food! Parking wasn’t super convenient but overall great!

Received a very warm welcome by the staff. But we were rather surprised that the price we were charged does not reflect your website price. We ordered two sandwiches which according to your website should have been served with crisps and salad and the prawn sandwich should have been served with mayonnaise but wasn't, which made it quite dry. Each sandwich was £2 more than website and served without crisps. I recommend you update your website. I

Had Sunday lunch with a friend. Starters were fantastic! The Sunday roast with beef was to die for. And the bread and butter pudding OMG 👌🏼 Great service. Friendly staff and All round a great experience A+++++++

Food aways very good and tasty. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We normally go to the Lion but when they were quite rude we walked up the road and tried here instead. My first visit and am extremely impressed, we were given a very friendly welcome and enjoyed a delicious lunch. The sandwiches were a very generous size and good value for money, will most definitely return :)

Lovely Sunday lunch in a dog friendly pub

Family tradition of attending on Boxing Day. Got drinks from the bar as the queue for the bacon rolls and hot drinks from the barn never seemed to get any shorter. Lovely crisp, chilly but sunny day. Perfect for vintage motorcycle meet

Good beer, great food comfortable atmosphere.

What an absolutely amazing find! Dog friendly, cozy yet spacious. Everything here is wonderful from the staff, the service and most importantly, the food! Best fish and chips we've ever had, the portions are very generous and everything tasted wonderful. The definition of proper good pub food. We will definitely be back!

Had lunch here today with my friend. Very busy and we didn’t book but the lovely bar staff found us a very nice table. Food was lovely, plenty of it. Nice pub and the two girls behind the bar were both lovely. Helpful, polite and busy. Will defo be going back

Nice friendly pub. Good food and ale

one of the best steaks I ever had. My kids were happy as well. We arrived without booking and were seated anyway.

I don’t usually write reviews or complain, but making an exception here as to how diabolically awful and disgraceful this meal was. It was 3 adults and two children. We’re doI start. Firstly waited 15 minutes to order drinks. Drinks arrived. Then 25 minutes additional before orders were taken. And let me stress it wasn’t busy. Eventually when food arrives it was stone cold as if it had been standing for days and then served up. Yorkshire pudding was like a bowling ball. I needed a jack hammer to penetrate the roast potatoes. Broccoli was like 1 week old leftovers and the stone cold beef wasn’t fit for purpose. And before I go into details of the other meals I will refrain because it could be as lengthy as war and peace. Simply put this was the worst Sunday pub meal I have eaten in 40 years plus. Nothing has ever come close to how bad this was. Please, I beseech you. Avoid the pied bull . Note 3 hours after leaving this pub, the conversation of myself and the party I was with, we’re still talking about this horrendous experience. In fact I’m scared for life and will be having nightmares.

Awesome pub with lovely food and staff

A really nice meal and friendly staff👍

Always have a good time at The Pied Bull, lunch was lovely today 😋

I used to be a regular drinker at the Pied Bull before moving away. I returned this weekend and was very pleased to see that the place is still as welcoming and friendly as ever, with fab staff, delicious food and plenty of drinks options. It's dog friendly so my two cockapoos enjoyed the visit too, with lots of fuss from the welcoming staff and even a treat or two! I will definitely be visiting again when I'm next in the area!

Small menu seem to take along time for the food wasn't very busy

We popped in for a midweek lunch and we’re pleased to receive a warm welcome. We immediately felt cosy in what felt like an unpretentious, and honest local pub. It was quite busy ( a good thing in my book ) we ordered a Ploughman’s lunch and a prawn sandwich along with a portion of chips as a back up. I have to say the food was exceptional and plenty of it . Wow would recommend this pub and will surely be returning. Thank you to all the staff and management.

So disappointed…..this pub has been our go to for years but the service yesterday was beyond bad. After we ordered they waited 45 minutes to tell us there were no roasts dinners left at 3pm! 2 of the starters arrived 20 minutes after the first 2. Then 2 of the replacement main courses were badly burned. We walked out. We booked our table 5 days in advance so how can the kitchen get numbers so wrong.

Rude management Dreadful service they run out at 2pm of Sunday lunch after taking our order it took another hour for them to tell us they had run out!!!!then we reorder takes another hour!!! then food comes out in dribs and drabs last straw was burnt black food!!!!!! Unacceptable!!! walked out .never again it used to be so good!!!!!! Staff run around like headless chickens no management or organisation skills what so ever Awful beyond belief

Very friendly,helpful and knowledgeable staff. Clean and tidy premises. A wide range of food and drink. Good value for money. Good quality food cooked to a high standard.

The ale was nice and well kept. The food was also nice although on the pricier side of acceptable and there were no swaps allowed. All in all, very nice. Would definitely recommend and return

Nice country pub, more spacious than it looks from the outside. Standard pub menu with plenty to choose from plus a specials board. Food well presented & very tasty. Reasonably priced. Set in a quaint village with great riverside walks nearby. Recommend for lunch & a walk.

No soup? It's on the menu, I have disphasia so need easily swallowed food. Open a tin I don't mind.

Pleasant food and drink at reasonable prices but service was very slow despite the pub restaurant not being busy. Ample parking available in pub car park and neighbouring street.

We don't live near, but whenever we are in the area, we come here. Great food, terrific value, friendly staff. We always enjoy our time, at the Pied Bull.

We booked a table for a large group at Sunday lunch time a couple of weeks before. The new manager couldn't have been more helpful with the booking. There was a couple of changes in numbers and time right up to the day before but she was always happy to help. We'd pre ordered food but they allowed an extra two people to come on the day and bent over backwards to allow additional/changes to orders on the day despite them being quite busy. They also arranged separate tabs within the group to make paying the bill and ordering drinks very easy. The food was lovely and came out promptly when we arrived and vey good value. Highly recommend the pub for large bookings and we couldn't have asked for better service on the lead up to the booking and on the day itself. We've previously used them for large booking before and also had an excellent experience then.
