The Bull - Carta

another beautiful meal with friends. are they no longer in the bottle of prosecco? can I not take care of this new rule? sounds like a greedy owner rule. much profit is made on a bottle

Great pub before COVID. Much improved after COVID. Food portions have doubled. With a fussy son, we love the Bull. My son has loads of kid meals to choose from and the Thai food was better than when we’ve come previously. Would recommend to anyone!!

After reading several positive reviews, I was not impressed with this restaurant. Although the service was friendly, the quality of the food and the prices were poor. I found it difficult to justify the prices for the meals we received. The presentation of the dishes could not make up for the fact that the kids' burger was overcooked and dry, the pork was very fatty and overcooked, and the chicken was also overcooked and dry. Overall, I left feeling very disappointed. Ver carta

Visited last summer when the Government covered half the bill encouraging people to dine out to support businesses… An advertising board was outside suggesting the Government off. Food was okay. Not great. But it was lunch. When the bill arrived it was the full...price. No discount applied. When questioned the waitress said, ‘we do off. Do you want me to change it’. Why did they have a board outside and not take the off… and why not register with the Government for they would get of bill that way. Disappointing that they implied it was a off…. Haven’t been back.

we were not already one because on the bullen in barkham, but eating was quite good, especially there Curry’s we had a very average meal, although the people who had the curries said the taste was ok, but they could. the meat was not very good quality and was hard, I had fish and chips, and I can honestly say it was the worst fish chips I had ever had no confidence how they could go wrong with fish and chips that I told the waiter when he took my full plate, it was not good, but he was very uninterested. so service also not great. such a scandal, how beautiful looking pub inside and outside, but surely it will not eat there soon

It was a quiet night in the pub, service was a little slow however the waitress was very pleasant. We ordered main courses which came in a reasonable, however, the lamb dish was dry, as if they had precooked the lamb and just placed...a sauce on it. This dish we have had before and previously was much better. We then asked if they did irish coffees tonight, even though I could see it on a board within the other part of the restaurant I thought it was polite to ask. They advised that they did, so I asked for a Calypso version, Barperson arrived with a glass of Tia Maria. After trying to get this right I just ordered a coffee and settled for that.

Have visited on a regular basis every week with a group of friends sit outside. Everyone orders in or usually coffee, teas beers . Service is often slow frequently orders are wrong. Coffee is served in cups with no handles...but are useless for tea as its too hot, so asked for cups/ mugs with handles . This varies from big teacups to liquer coffee glasses! Tea has arrived in a pot with no tea bags, sugar, milk or spoon, biscuits are a lottery sometimes you get one, sometimes not . The beer is ok but they put up the price of a pint by in one week. We visit every week, same day, same quiet lunchtime so you would think they would be a little more prepared. Needless to say we now go elsewhere.

Today of us called for lunch, nearing the end of a mile walk, with the expectation of the usual high standards. Very busy but a table found. had Thai curry and fish and chips. Drinks came promptly, excellent beers and...cider, then the food came. The curries looked, smelt and tasted great but the fish and chips were probably the worst the of us have had. Grossly thick undercooked batter, chips looked great but undercooked. Nobody came to enquire if we were happy and nobody about to report. We were so hungry we ate what we could then gave up. The manager cleared table and we told him about the meal. The only reason I’m leaving this report is the complete lack of concern by this man who shrugg...

My friends and I decided to go on a mile walk around Finchampstead, Farley Hill, The Combes and then go back to our cars via The Bull at Barkham, so we could have a well earned pub lunch. As a group of Ramblers, we...had regularly visited the Bull after our walks prior to the pandemic and I would have previously commended the pub by saying they served the best ham, egg and chips in the area. Well,,,...... has that changed for the worse!!!!!!! We had a very poor meal there today. Firstly, they don't serve ham, egg and chips any more, secondly one of my friends and I ordered fish chips and our meals were very poor. The fish piece I had was really tough and unpleasant and the chips were not coo... Ver carta
