Severely over priced and very very average food, bland at best. We were pushed towards so-called waitress recommendation which was quite clearly what had not been selling and needed pushing. Portion size ridiculously small, worrying when ordering and waitress says you need to order more because portions are very small, well make them bigger then and provide at least some sort of value for money!! In particular 1 waitress seriously needs a happy pill, made us feel very uncomfortable with her attitude and down right ignorance. Felt robbed when we saw the huge bill and the ridiculous service charge to have the privilege of being waited on by Miss miserable. Not what we were expecting from the fancy website descriptions.

We booked for my sons graduation celebration - he knew someone who had worked there and was it recommended by them. He and I have specific food allergies and the Black Bull had a menu printed for us that excluded the dishes that contained the allergens......!!! Very nice touch. The food was excellent, some of the best we've ever tasted across a range of dishes and the desert - the sharing apple tarte tatin - was sufficient after starters and mains for all 5 of us... be warned...!!! :-) The staff were lovely and very amusing.... We'll definitely be going back. Thank you Black Bull for a memorable evening.

We didn't stay but ate here on Monday pie night! The best pie I have ever eaten! Moroccan lamb pie (locally sourced) was beautifully constructed and tasted wonderful.

We went for the award winning Sunday roast. It was the worst Sunday roast dinner we had ever had; even the drinking water was warm. However the cauliflower cheese and carrot were good. Nobody came to check if there were any issues. The lady who took our payment was lovely and the best part of our experience.

Very comfortable & relaxing stay. Superb room with lovely facilities. Views from room and lots of little touches like fresh milk. Loved the quality linen & towels. Exemplary customer service, welcoming & helpful, particularly from Jessica & Rose. Great breakfast

Service and attitude poor. Two behind the bar not really knowing what they were doing. I asked for 2 diet cokes, told they don't have it but have a sugar free cola. They gave us 2 cokes that have 36 grams of sugar in each one. Asked for money back after queueing again. Told no but replaced with zero sugar cokes. The label pointed out these were very high in caffeine. So both were left. Here's the thing - a 33cl coke substitute costs £4.30 each !!! Where is £8.60 for 2 small cokes acceptable? Never be back - and you have been warned. Zero stars.

Nice room, but no view. Loo didn’t flush properly. Shower head too low for anyone around 6 foot tall. Breakfast uninspired and food delivery very slow. Dinner a huge disappointment. Ordered tomahawk steak to share, weren’t asked how we’d like it cooked and it came out almost raw. Sent it back twice and it was still underdone. Wouldn’t rush back.

First off, the staff are excellent; friendly, helpful and an absolute pleasure. The wine and the beer was also good, but that is about where it ended. We went on a Tuesday, so Curry night. Not sure what it is trying to be; small portions of the starters were overcooked, the main course Keema curry was served in a small bowl that made it look like you were eating dog food out of a bowl; not what I expected. Definitely not worth the hype.
