What acminder doesn't like about The Bull Inn Arborfield:
Food was good but better on our first visit. Service was poor. Staff young and inexperienced and untrained. They didn't seem to know the menu and only told us there was a dish unavailable when we started to order. We did not get asked about any allergies or asked to taste the wine.

What Dryllig likes about The Bull Inn Arborfield:
What a gem of a pub! We have visited twice now, and were so impressed with our meals first time round that we ordered exactly the same the second time (fish and chips and chicken Kiev). Unfortunately, we live about 70 miles away and were in the area to pick something up, otherwise we would be very frequent visitors. Well done to Aidan and all the staff we encountered for such a friendly and helpful attitude. View all feedback.

read moreThe Bull Inn, a charming Grade II listed pub at Arborfield roundabout, continues to evoke mixed feelings among its visitors. While many praise its inviting atmosphere, friendly staff, and well-prepared dishes like fish and chips and pork T-bone, others express dissatisfaction with service inconsistencies and menu limitations. The price increases without corresponding quality improvements have left some diners frustrated, leading to occasional walkouts and disappointment. Nevertheless, loyal patrons appreciate the establishment's relaxed vibe, encouraging return visits. Overall, The Bull Inn remains a notable destination for good food and a welcoming dining experience, albeit with some room for improvement.
