"Stopped here 1 pm Thursday lunchtime as we were driving past and the car park at the front of this nice looking pub restaurant had plenty of free spaces. We were surprised at the notice on the door saying “No Children” but went inside to the empty restaurant (just one table of 4 occupied). We took a seat and the waitress brought over the lunch menu. The cheapest offering was £14, baked ham, egg and chips or scampi and chips. I ordered a small glass of Sauvignon Blanc and we ordered the ham and scampi. The wine was brought over in a chipped glass (on the base) and the bottle had obviously been opened a few days ago. I didn’t complain at that point but if I had known the price, £7.50, I probably would have. The meals arrived promptly and I noticed immediately there was a problem with my ham. Although hand carved the edges of the two slices were dry and grey. I lifted off the top slice to see the slice underneath was also wet, sticky and grey in the middle. It also smelt “off”. I called the waitress back and said I couldn’t eat the ham for obvious reasons. She took it back and came back almost immediately saying “the chef says there is nothing wrong with the ham, he cooked it this morning, but would you like something else”. I was so taken aback with the response I just said can he do me egg and chips. She returned 5 minutes later with a fresh plate containing the original egg and 6 chips. I said is that the same egg and chips I returned, “yes” was the reply, the Chef has reheated the chips. So, I have in front of me a small, child portion, of stone cold fried egg and refried chips. I was hungry so ate this dismal offering and asked for the bill. Unbelievably I was charged full price for ham, egg, chips. Had to insist the bill was adjusted and it was to £3.50 for a bowl of chips and £2 for my egg. Was told to pay at the bar. At the bar I again said how disappointed I was, especially being served ham in such a condition. At this point another woman, maybe the manager, pulled the waitress aside and said there was nothing wrong with the ham, they cook a fresh ham every day and that I probably don’t know what a fresh baked ham looks like. How insulting can you be. I probably baked my first glazed ham before she was even born. I paid the bill, feeling ripped off and insulted. This was by far the worst dining experience I have ever had."

They must work very hard to keep up the quality and choice. It was a bit chilly in there but appreciate the increasing costs of running a venue without passing that on to customers.

We ate at the Bull during a stay in Cottered for a wedding nearby. Staff were friendly and efficient and the food was really tasty. Will definitely return if we are in the area again.

The food is amazing and the service is top-notch. This is our second time dining here and we are already looking forward to our next visit. We enjoyed sitting outside on the lovely patio.

Great food, great value and lovely staff. The Bull is a well appointed country pub with a great atmosphere. Perfect place to stop for a meal. The food was excellent quality and very reasonably priced. I'd recommend this place

I have never had a bad meal at the Bull in Cottered. Went for a family meal with my granddaughter and son-in-law from Melbourne in Australia and 3 others. I had the delicious calves liver with a cheesy sauce, new potatoes and onion rings. My sister had the Halibut. Others had fillet steak cooked to perfection. Well done chef!

Sitting back from a busy country road in a lovely village setting, The Bull presents a warm friendly atmosphere. with many rustic features. The Lunchtime menu was excellent and service friendly and efficient. Menu was impressive and high class which made choice difficult but French Onion Soup followed by Liver Mash highly recommended. Everything was nicely presented with generous portions and many extras. Highly recommended in every respect and the monthly music evenings look intriguing.

I had previously recommended this pub restaurant to friends, but after my recent experience, I would not do so again. The beer was priced exorbitantly, the service was lacking, and the welcome was non-existent – we were immediately asked if we had made a reservation, and reprimanded for not doing so despite the restaurant being nearly empty at 6:30pm on a weeknight. The staff were unaccommodating, refusing to take a photo of our group when asked and constantly insisting on how busy they were despite the lack of other customers. Additionally, a service charge was added to our bill, which is against the law, and they were unwilling to remove it.
