    We booked a table for Sunday lunch for 8 people, the food was delicious and the staff as always friendly and very helpful. The service was great and we weren’t rushed to leave the table. The Bulls looking lovely after its little refurb. We highly recommend the Sunday lunch especially the roast potatoes.
