The Smoking Bull in Nuneaton and Bedworth

Exceptional food and exceptional customer service. I cannot recommend the smoking bull highly enough. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble and was the perfect setting for our birthday celebration evening. A big thank you to all the staff for an excellent evening. Food is absolutely amazing so please book with confidence. You will not be disappointed.

Mostly burgers but found a chicken Kebab on Flatbread which was very tasty.

Honestly. Best burger I’ve ever had

Visited based on a recommendation and not sure if for sure snit was an off day but ended up disappointed. The waiting time from placing our food order was over an hour and it wasn't exactly what you would call busy. The food when it did come was mediocre at best, when paying £16.00 for a burger you don't expect it to look and taste like it had been cooked the night before and reheated in a microwave !

Good food, good service. Nice atmosphere. What more can you ask for on night out.

Have been to this place multiple times. Food is always on point and the staff are great. If you want a proper burger or steak, this is the place. Just need to sample the breakfast next!

Absolutely stunning food and surroundings. Polite staff. Will be returning xx

I didn't even know this place was a proper food restaurant, came for the first time tonight. Food was 10/10 without a doubt probably the best steak I've ever ordered and I've been to places like marco pierre ect this place is outshines it 🤌 the people are so friendly and outgoing and if you fault the food come back and mark this as a false report lol but yeah thanks The smoking bull staff, food, place was all amazing will be coming back. Ps I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure there's no vegetarian stuff it's a proper steak house so... don't go if your not a real foody.

Serious contender for best eatery in nuneaton!

Had a lovely meal with family & friends, will be back.

Just awesome, get yourself down there 😁

A true Nuneaton gem! It's no wonder you have a circa two-month waiting list for a peak time Friday or Saturday slot. Went on a Friday and had the full baby back ribs and wow, the flavour, the accompanying sides, and the amount of food is worth every penny. I loved hearing the passion and the story behind The Smoking Bull. Will be visiting again.

Fantastic bbq. Nashville chicken burger was perfection

Great meal, love the food and the quality of the cooking. Much needed proper food experience in the area. A must visit.

Easily the best place to eat in Nuneaton. Food is amazing and so was the service. Will definitely be visiting regularly

Fantastic steak,l cooked to perfect with well pair and proportioned sides. Great service & atmosphere. Wouldn’t hesitate to return.

They very nice friendly. Food is so delicious.

Brilliant food and friendly staff loved it constantly good quality and great atmosphere I travel from Hertfordshire to Nuneaton to eat here, now that speaks volumes. Ps Try the Steak loaded fries 💯 5 stars all the way.

can honestly say the best food I've had pri pri chicken burger was amazing so was the cowboy burger

Brilliant food , good service , brought out kids food on piping hot plate

Great food, and value. Will be back.

Without doubt the best steak I've had eating out, the place is a vibe the staff are ever so friendly and I came back for breakfast and was not disappointed 😋 keep doing what you're doing 🙌

Great friendly staff and lovely vibe. Food was worth the wait and was delicious. I had buttermilk chicken and everyone else in our party had steaks. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

Ordered the cowboy burger and quarter pounder. Asked for no gherkins or onions on the cowboy burger but it came with them on and mine that should have had them on did not, only minor but was a bit annoying. Burger was nice though.

Delicious food great choice in menu. Fab outside food music!

Lovely little pub with amazing food and staff. definitely worth the visit. Definitely be booking in to go again and try different night. Went for burger night best burger I've had in long time. Well done 😊👍🏻👍🏻

Amazing food and great service!

Great food, great service, great atmosphere

Great food, great atmosphere, fantastic service value for money. check out the pulled beef

Amazing. We went for dinner yesterday, I was hoping to try the Chilli but it wasn't on the evening menu. Went for the the beef rib and a chicken burger, both were incredible. And to top it off I was gifted a portion of Chilli to take home to try! Had it tonight for dinner, honestly the best Chilli I've ever eaten. We'll definitely be back!

The staff was amazing! Really friendly and helpful, food was out of this world, and to top it off, my lad was given a bottle of hot sauce too to take home as he handled the hottest sauce they did

Brilliant food good verity and good selection off drinks

Absolutely amazing food, so good we didnt even stop to take pictures. Some of the best steak I've ever had and I could have just drank the peppercorn sauce. Can't wait to go back again.

Wow, I've been into BBQ and Smoking at home for many years, trying to perfect the art of Low & Slow. Well, this place has nailed it 100%! The most amazing flavours and textures, coupled with great beers and super attentive service. I'm both a really happy customer, and also very jealous of what these guys have acheived! Well done all, top marks!

Went there early morning had the breakfast burrito, out of this world

Perfect place to pop out and enjoy a meal with the family

Visited for the first time on recomendation with my partner on 20/06/24 and really enjoyed our visit. The staff were really helpful and attentive, the food was great, we went with the platter for one which gives a great selection of the various smoked meats and it includes some of the best sweetcorn and beans I've ever tasted. We couldn't quite finish our plates so took the ribs home in a box. I'd be really happy to visit again, I couldn't get enough of the pork belly! 🤤🤤🤤

Beautiful breakfast, with some free pancakes! Always amazing food for both breakfast and dinner

Never disappoints this place. The chicken wings are amazing just like the choice of sauces. Well worth a visit

We dropped in tonight due to the reviews and they squeezed us In. I have eaten in some good places but not alot can top this. Staff were excellent..food was probably the best I have had from a smoke house. Don't be fooled by the outside. In fact do be fooled by the outside that way I will still be able to get a table. To top it off cornish rattler on tap! Well done the crew that works there. We will be back with a crew of our own!

Wow what fantastic food, the pub is nice clean and modern and food is fantastic. Can't wait to come back again

Absolutely fantastic!!! Words could not explain how could this place is. The staff are amazing, drinks are amazing and the food..... simply unbelievable. We've travelled to the US alot for holidays and tried alot of bbq/smoker places out there that are meant to be "the best" but The Smoking Bull beats every single one of them hands down!!

Been waiting to get in to book a table now for ages and finally got one ! And must say it was well worth the wait! Food incredible, fantastic service and a lovely atmosphere! Shall definitely be going back!

Food was really good, especially the beef short rib!

Not eaten here yet, so can't comment on food but on a sunny day its nice to get some sun in the beer garden and the drinks are good.

I recently enjoyed another fantastic meal at The Smoking Bull, and they once again exceeded my expectations. As a regular, I know I can always count on their unbeatable chicken burgers, which are consistently juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. This time, I had a platter for one with sides of burnt ends and chili cheese bites. Every bite was a delightful experience, with the burnt ends being particularly tender and the chili cheese bites offering the perfect kick. The homemade sauces are a standout feature, adding unique and delicious flavors to every dish. The atmosphere is welcoming and the service is always top-notch. The Smoking Bull continues to be my go-to place for a satisfying and memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!

Friendly staff and delicious food!

This place is the real deal, 2 month waiting list is no surprise. You’ve got to try it!

Waited 45 mins for our meal. I think they had forgotten us. Had the special which was rib meat and sausage casserole. It was tasty but had only two pieces of pork, so was mostly sausage. Seasoned chips just tasted like chips, Chlli was just ok.

Food is absolutely fantastic, parking can be a bit of a pain, there is a free car park on the other side off road.

Our food was fantastic, so delicious and a good big portion.. Everyone was so kind and helpful..Even the chef checked up on us.. We'll definitely be back as this was our first time...

We had the Kettle ribeye not cheap but definitely worth the money it was cooked perfectly tasted fantastic. We have tried all days menus steak night is my favourite but I also love the burgers, my husband likes the Fri/sat menu lol. They are not stingy with portion size either. Clean and very welcoming and you are not made to feel rushed. Highly recommended *****

Food was amazing, definitely worth a trip

Not a bad steak, would've liked to see a more varied menu, but we did go on a steak night. No sweets either, a few steps to get into the place so for me it was difficult to get in and no disabled parking close. Toilets(gents) had a wet floor making using a stick tricky. Might go again, we'll see. Staff definitely wanted us out after eating, didn't feel welcome as talking to friends and not drinking a lot.

Amazing food as always, queen rib and burnt ends, melted in your mouth, Mac & cheese was divine. Kids loved the Nashville chicken burgers.

Amazing food and outstanding atmosphere. All round great place to be

We went here for the Thursday steak night and it was absolutely unreal. The staff were very knowledgable and passionate about the food on offer. The food was fantastic and well worth the money. Steaks were perfect, I don’t think you can get better anywhere! The whole restaurant is really special and we can’t wait to go back to sample the other menus!

Pretty simple formula from our groups dining experience at the Smoking Bull on Sat evening - friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere and let the food do the talking.This place has got it spot on. The beef rib I had was fantastic!

Fourth visit and still our favourite, food and service fantastic! So good we booked our next two visits whilst we were there! 😊

Came here last night for a Mates babies head wedding and had a scream. From the Bar service to the owners, the Cook everybody was nice to us. Even bought chilli sauce to show us how hot it was. Burgers were gorgeous and fries are amazing as well. Really nice restaurant, give it a try.

Friendly staff. Cosy atmosphere. Food excellent.

Great food all round,a must to eat out

Absolute must vist Great food and atmosphere.

Fantastic quality food, nice atmosphere and great staff💯

Went here for burger night could choose what burger to have so ended up having 2 the nashville chicken burger is unreal just waiting to go for the smoker menu now

10/10. Fabulous food. Fabulous burgers! Will be going again next week!

We have been waiting to come to this place now for a few months and glad we did. The food was fresh and tasted good, portion sizes fit thr cost and defo did not leave hungry. For an independent bbq smokehouse this place defo knows what they are doing. We will be back for sure!

Superb service. Huge selection. What's not to like!! Well worth visiting.

Great food, you won't be disappointed.

Excellent food as usual, and the wonderful friendly efficient service. We love it.

The best meat platter I have ever had, service was excellent. Worth travelling from Nottingham to Nuneaton for, highly recommend and I will be visiting again.

Amazing Food and excellent service!

Amazing food and great service, was also nice that the owner took the time to chat with us and offer advice about smoking meats. Will definitely be back to try steak night.

Absolutely beautiful food, service and friendly staff, seating very comfortable too.🤣 To anyone else saying this is expensive, try McDonald's! Had a platter as did my husband, drinks and loads leftover for tomorrow bought two bottles of sauce and tip! £134. Would have paid more. Outstanding service and value. Xxxx

Excellent service, top quality food as always.

Went for the first time today for lunch... Staff were welcoming, friendly and catered to our every need. We really appreciated that. The food came out quickly and the first thing I noticed was how big the chicken burger was! Getting into the food, everything was absolutely unreal. I had the Nashville burger and would definitely go back for that again. Beautiful crispy batter, sauces absolutely kicking the taste buds and the whole thing put together with the lettuce, cheese and bun was just perfect. The seasoned fries are unique and delicious. Had the chilli cheese bites on the side, only thing I can critique is they weren't spicy enough for my liking but they were still absolutely delicious. Good range of drinks as well. Will definitely be back!

Unique little place, the staff are great & the menu options are different to most places with good size portions. You can tell it’s great as you have to book well in advance for weekends. The only thing that stopped me giving a 5 across the board was that the side of chicken wings came out stone cold which led me to believe they were microwaved & not prepared in house as claimed

I was unable to book for a Saturday night, some three weeks in advance. So I settled for Saturday lunchtime. I was hoping that I would not be disappointed, there being a lunchtime menu, and I was not. I had the Sloppy Joe burger, with beef rib chilli topping, and it was superb. My wife had seasoned chips with a grilled chicken topping, which she enjoyed. We had sides of Halloumi chips, and coleslaw, both were very good. The staff, were attentive, able to provide good explanations about the food, and spicing levels. I would happily recommend The Smoking Bull to meat eaters, vegetarian options are limited to Halloumi burgers, but that's not what it's really about. There are no pub chains that do this lever of quality.

Absolutely outstanding meal, I've never tasted beef cooked that well before, ever! Cannot wait to go again. Fabulous place.

Everyone loved their food. Owner dave is a really nice bloke. Only place outside cornwall that I have found that sells Cornish Rattler cider on draft too.

We visited here this evening and were warmly welcomed, the restaurant itself is beautiful and immaculate. The staff were lovely, so polite couldn’t do enough for us, the food! 10/10 faultless! Meat was seasoned to perfection and melt in the mouth. If you love Mac & cheese you won’t be disappointed it’s divine! Honestly couldn’t fault anything, and already looking to book in again. Thanks for a great meal!

Called on the day for a table for two. He staff were very friendly and managed to get us in. The food was incredible 🥰

The most amazing food and cracking service. I could not recommend this place highly enough. It is absolutely fantastic.

Love it here!! Fantastic food, great atmosphere and friendly helpful staff.

One of Britain’s Gems the food is unbeatable and the staff are one in a million especially dougie

Another stunning meal and evening, Beef Rib was to die for. Nothing like this in this area, will be booking again very soon.

The Smoking Bull is fantastic! We cannot recommend it enough, thank you for a great evening

Don't normally eat steak when I eat out as never get it cooked how I like but I have to say the steak I had this evening was the best I have ever eaten would give more stars if I could great job guys

Great atmosphere and the food is absolutely delicious.

Great venue, excellent food, even catered for gluten free, very accommodating.

Both very much enjoyed our meals, definitely filling too. Will return for steak sometime soon

A group of us went and had a lovely meal. I recommend the platter, the smoked meats were incredible. They also have a nice selection of locally brewed ales.

This place is the talk of the town and rightfully so! Lovely staff, amazing setting and incredible food! I can't wait to visit again!

The food was delicious and amazing. The beef ribs were a first for me but they were to die for, very tender, fell away from the bone and full of flavour. The service was excellent and they catered for all need's. The atmosphere was great. We will definitely be returning very soon.

Fabulous food, lovely atmosphere,staff were very friendly,loved it will definitely be going again.

My second visit to this place it was amazing last time but this time was out off this world the food is the most tender tasty meat you will ever have and even the chips are brilliant let's not forget there home made sauces which BTW they sell got myself some bbq tonight. The staff are amazing very welcoming passionate about what they do and really love to see you enjoy your food. Can't wait to go back looking for my birthday next !

Great food, great beer and a great atmosphere 👍🏻👍🏻

We had the best stake ever and we were delighted that they took the full deposit off our bill although our two friends couldn’t make it. Can’t wait to visit again.

Highly recommend!! Best food in Nuneaton. Never disappoints!!! Book early as they get booked up weeks even months in advance but always worth the wait.

Got to be the best resteraunt of its kind around, 1st class food and an owner that knows all about the food he's serving.
