3/5 bill h. 4 years ago on Google
My
Mate
had
booked
a
table
at
The
Bull,
at
Hinton
(a
pretty
little
village
just
North
of
Bristol)
for
Sunday
Lunch,
to
celebrate
his
Birthday.
We
managed
to
blag
a
parking
space
at
the
front
of
the
Pub
in
amongst
the
Land
Rovers,
a
few
Range
Rovers
and
the
obligatory
Morgan
soft
top.
It
is
quite
a
way
out
so
most
people
opt
to
drive
so
Parking
is
limited
though
there
is
additional
parking
at
the
rear.
They
do
have
a
Herb
Garden
at
the
back
and
customers
are
encouraged
to
take
a
walk
around.
When
we
went
inside
it
was
reasonably
empty
with
one
or
two
tables
already
taken
and
a
few
reserved
for
later.
The
interior
is
typical
country
Pub
style,
big
fireplaces,
Old
furniture,
lots
of
Oak
and
that
lovely
smell
that
you
only
seem
to
get
in
bars
in
the
UK,
British
Beer.
We
sat
at
our
table
and
ordered
drinks.
Beer
(6X
-
@
£3.75)
but
free
for
the
Birthday
boy.
Wine
(Pinot
Noir,
£7
for
the
250ml
and
£5.20
for
the
175
ml
glass)
for
the
Girls
and
a
cup
of
coffee
(£2.10)
for
me
.
(I
was
ready
for
my
afternoon
nap
and
needed
some
thing
to
keep
me
going).
The
Menu
is
reasonably
varied
but
we
were
here
for
a
Sunday
Roast
so
we
didn't
even
consider
anything
else.
There
was
a
choice
of
Beef
(45
day
dry
aged)
at
£14.95.
Roast
leg
of
Lamb
(£12.95).
Roast
Pork
Loin
(£12.75)
and
of
course
a
Veggie
option
of
Nut
Roast
for
£11.
We
were
told
the
beef
came
slightly
rare
so
we
ordered
two
beef
'without
blood'
and
one
beef
as
rare
as
it
could
come.
My
partner
went
for
the
roast
Pork
which
was
a
great
choice.
It
had
two
thick
slices
of
meat
beautifully
cooked
and
presented
with
all
the
trimmings
including
a
large
Yorkshire
pudding
that
was
a
bit
too
crispy
for
our
taste
but
which
looked
great.
The
beef
was
served
as
requested
and
again
it
looked
and
tasted
great
with
all
the
usual
Roast
Vegetable
and
it
was
served
piping
hot.
They
serve
Cauliflower
cheese
as
an
add-on
to
the
Sunday
Roast
at
£1.85
a
portion
so
we
guessed
we
would
need
three
between
us.
It
was
really
tasty
and
complimented
the
roast
though
I
do
feel
slightly
cheated
that
this
is
'extra'.
It
made
the
Sunday
Roast
Beef
£16.80
which
is
well
on
the
'expensive'
side.
They
brought
Horseradish
sauce
(very
hot
so
be
warned)
and
Apple
Sauce
in
small
containers,
we
didn't
have
to
ask
and
we
didn't
have
to
wait
for
it
to
arrive.
In
some
restaurants
they
don't
always
remembers
to
bring
the
sauce.
Service
was
polite
and
attentive
without
being
over
powering.
The
venue
was
rustic
but
seating
was
a
bit
firm
and
I
was
glad
to
get
up
and
stretch
my
legs
at
the
end.
We
ordered
more
drinks
and
the
Girls
chose
a
cocktail
from
the
specials
board
at
£7.50
each.
The
Pudding
list
looked
too
good
to
resist
so
we
ordered
a
Brownie
(£6)
a
Cheesecake
(£6)
and
a
Lemon
Pudding
(£6).
This
was
a
very
nice
Sunday
Lunch
served
in
and
Traditional
Country
Pub
but
its
Expensive,
the
total
bill
came
to
£31.37
each
its
not
some
where
I
would
go
every
weekend.
However,
for
a
special
occasion
it
was
fine.
And
you
never
know,
you
may
well
see
a
local
celebrity
sat
at
the
next
table?
