We visited on a Monday lunchtime so there were no crowds but the pub had a good amount of diners to give some atmosphere. The menus I believe have recently been changed so there is a standard menu, a specials menu and a two... More

We recently visited the Bull Inn for a mid-week evening out with friends and found that whilst the atmosphere was nice, the beer was pleasant and the service was quite good, the meal portions were a little on the small side and the quality of the food was very average. The prices were also a bit expensive when you consider... More

Went for a lovely walk along the Thames. We were meeting our son in Reading so sadly did not eat here as the menu looked good. Wonderful atmosphere in the pub. Breakfast... More

I mean it, very civilised, church in the background, towering elms and a few nice classic cars courtesy of the loafer brigade. The pub itself is charming, drinks are priced with the location in mind but well kept and they do a nice sideline in bar snacks. I'll be honest in saying I was expecting more of the food. I... More
