Not only because it convenient and local but we always get a warm welcome by the staff and the food is lovely.Its good and atmosphere is very homely so if that's what you enjoy then that's what you'll get. Great selection of starters, mains and desserts although I would always recommend listening to the selection of special on offer that day as when the have the swordfish it's unbelievable!Lunch is also great, a really good selection of panini's and baguettes.Not so much a bar to stand or sit in although in the summer the beer garden lovely and they will serve food outside too.Although we love this place I would like to see the inside updated slightly.

Called in on spec yesterday at lunchtime. Warm and friendly greeting, excellent service, good atmosphere. What a great idea having all the lunch dishes at the same price, similarly the desserts! Plenty of choice. Our Lamb Rogan Josh curry was better than many we've had in Indian restaurants.... Followed by sticky toffee pudding and vanilla creme brulee and coffee. Terrific value and we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Good parking and a nice garden for the better weather. Thank you. We'll certainly be back!

Further to my 2 earlier reviews, June 2019 January 2020 it is simply a pleasure to eat regularly at The Bull Arborfield Cross. The meals here, are like reading good books you are sorry when you have finished them !!In these bewildering times, you still feel very comfortable eating here, with Covid 19 protocol impeccably followed by both Staff and Diners.Have already booked to come back for lunch during this coming week.Thank you again to all of the Team , who make us so welcome.Michael and Anne

Good food and friendly service from 2 ladies serving, unfortunately spoiled by the surly male waiter.6 of us were having a family meal, we enjoyed the roasts and then all ordered a pudding, i mentioned to the waiter that we were there celebrating my dads 85th birthday and could he have custard and cream with his crumble, the reply was an abrupt ‘he can have what he wants you’ll be paying for it’Really spoiled the mood, won’t be rushing back!
