My wife and I dined at the hotel for dinner tonight. We are locals and have eaten here before. The food was good and we both enjoyed it, which is why we are giving it 3 stars. However, there were some issues that prevented us from giving a higher rating. Three issues stood out to us during our visit. Firstly, despite it being a cold winter evening, the outside door of the hotel was left wide open, as was the inside door into the bar/restaurant. This made the room very cold when we sat down at our table. Despite my attempt to close the door, I was told it had to remain open for guests coming in and out. After enduring 10 more minutes of discomfort, I finally convinced a staff member to close...
What a lovely hotel and restaurant best for miles, so why oh why shut the restaurant on St Valentines and heard us all into a pokey bar?? I booked to have a lovely lunch with my wife in the nicest restaurant around, on entering we were told restaurant shut, ON ST VALENTINES DAY!!!! the bar was packed, had the atmosphere of a farm bar, whoever decided to close the restaurant on st Valentines day is in my opinion working in the wound job. So, what did we do, I walked over to where we checked in and check in and told them to cancel our booking. I'm not celebrating with my wife St Valentines day in something little better that a works canteen. Ps it said nothing about the restaurant being shut a...
I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. My partner and I had made a reservation for a Christmas meal, with our pre-ordered food ready upon arrival. Despite arriving early, our table in the bar was not set up yet. After waiting for quite some time, I inquired at the bar and was hastily told to order my food there. We then waited another half hour for our food, which arrived an hour later than our reservation. The food was overcooked and disappointing. To top it off, we were not even given a physical bill, just told the amount owed at the bar. The service was atrocious. Despite my complaint, the restaurant never followed up with me. I would not return to this establishment or recommend...
Lovely surroundings but have always found the restaurant to be hit or miss and sadly today was a bit of a miss. Chicken burger that was absolutely cremated to seconds from dust and no promised onion rings on the plate, Gammon that had quite a bit of gristle on it (good for the doggy bag though!! But the rest of the meals were fine. For a Thursday lunchtime it was steadily busy but service was very slow though we wernt in a hurry so it wasn't too bad but 2 of our party went for the hot drink and small dessert option and the dessert arrived 20 mins after they had finished their hot drinks... Staff as always courteous and friendly.

We had a fantastic pre-Christmas getaway at this restaurant. The building was beautifully decorated for the holidays, the staff were welcoming and kind, and our room was spotlessly clean and cozy. The breakfast was superb.
We had a lovely valentines meal in beautiful surroundings, the food was very well presented and well cooked , the portions were very generous too. Added bonus was the singer Sarah Louise who made the evening extra special.
Popped in for lunch as we were passing through. Staff were courteous and helpful. Food was excellent. Atmosphere was top class with old beams and log fire. Well done the Bull.
