The Bull always looks busy at opening times and if possible I would go late rather than early to avoid a wait, saying that the staff are very personable and attentive and it really is no hardship having a quick drink whilst waiting for your table, choose from the excellent local selection of hand pulled Timothy Taylors, Copper Dragon or Hetton Pale Ale along with Peroni on draught, a comprehensive wine list is also available.
