Not a fave of pancake day so instead decided to go to the Black Bull and take up the offer of 2 meals for £10. What an offer it is, definitely can’t complain for the value of money, plenty of food and it tasted absolutely beautiful. I had cornbeef rissole which is an all time fave of mine and it was not disappointing and my partner had the fish finger sandwich and in his words “it was a beast”.  It looked amazing if am honest and wanted that myself as well lol. I will be returning even if the 2 for £10 isn’t on but if you can catch it when it is on you’re in for a bargain. Enjoy. Thanks again The Black Bull.

2 for £10 Awesome deal

Have stopped on holiday in the village a few times and can safely say the Bull is amazing. Friendly hosts in Tracey and Lisa who  are doing an amazing job. No nonsense pub that serves great food at realistic prices. All the locals are friendly and willing to chat about anything. Did the quiz night and that was great fun and well attended. We have been when the Bull was not open and can safely say something was missing in the village. If your in the area on a Sunday then get your Sunday lunch booked it’s great value. Thanks Tracey and Lisa for making our visits that much more enjoyable.

Great pub, great food and great hosts….

We went for the Christmas fayre meal last night. Made to feel so welcome from start to finish. Nothing was a problem. Table was dressed and Christmas tunes were playing. The food, OMG absolutely beautiful. One of us had the prawn cocktail starter and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had the roast turkey dinner and everything was cooked to perfection. Turkey just melted in your mouth and the sprouts were just how I like them. The desserts were also lovely. I had the Christmas pudding with brandy sauce. One of us had the cheeseboard and ended up taking most of it home. If you're going for the Christmas fayre, I'd advise you to starve yourself beforehand as the portions are more than sufficient. Still feeling full this morning. Bar staff were very attentive and we felt very well looked after. Thank you Tracy, Scott and Megan. PS Scott, please come and cook my Christmas dinner 😉

Fantastic Christmas Fayre and lovely staff

Me, my daughter and friends went to a Halloween pumpkin carving event. The food was amazing, the pub itself is lovely. The staff where excellent and the whole day was amazing!

Lots of effort put in and very welcoming!!!

Halloween family day

Today we attended a Halloween pumpkin carving event for children and families and it was fab! Tracy (the boss) put so much thought into making this day fantastic, and everytime I've been here the main thing I always notice  is Tracy is so attentive, she always wants everyone to completley enjoy themselves and she goes out of her way to make everyone so welcome , you need that! I want to walk into a pub and feel that I'm wanted there, that there happy to see me,happy for my custom, and she does just that! 5☆ thanks so much to Tracy and her staff  xxx

Happy Halloween from Wolsingham

I had a day off from work and we decided to take the kids for a pub lunch as a treat before going back to school . A sentimental place for my wife and I as we had an evening meal here over ten years ago the day before we got married and all my family had come over from Ireland. Still an excellent homely pub . My son has autism and he was triggered by some of the other kids and as we were about to leave he was having a meltdown outside the pub. The was quickly resolved though as one of the ladies from the pub was outside and could see what was happening and suggested she could let us sit in The function room where it was quiet. This kind lady didn’t have to do this but was more than happy to help us out. The food was excellent and the lady who was serving was super polite, patient and friendly . Thank you all for a lovely lunch and for your understanding! We will definitely definitely be back, but maybe when the kids go back to school! 😀🤘

Lunchtime

Sorry to have to write a bad review but thought the management of the pub should know of this. There were 14 adults and 1 child we booked our table well in advance and all of us were really looking forward to a Sunday lunch.All of our meals were clay cold and very sparse,3 of our party were vegetarian and had ordered nut roast they received some sort of pie and when they asked for vegetarian gravy they got some sort of gloop. We were sitting in the bar area first an the gentleman who was sitting in the bay window, his meal looked fantastic and we all thought, this meal is going to be nice. Oh and the Yorkshire Puds were tiny almost like a dumpling. On a nicer note the bar staff an the 2 waitresses were so nice. The only thing I can think of was that there was too many of us to serve dinner hot. What a shame because its a lovely place.

Poor experience

Been here many times it’s a lovely pub with a great atmosphere last week tried the food which was really good we had the veggi lasagne and veggi burger both had lots of taste and came with home made chips.  We Will defiantly be back for food and to try a Sunday diner

Good food

Three of us visited last Friday lunchtime to a very warm welcome from the new owners.  Choice on menu suited all of us and prices are very reasonable.  Particularly enjoyed the smoked cod fishcakes and just managed to find room for the delicious Battenberg cheesecake. Would definitely recommend and will be back.

Best meal we have had in a long time

We visited the Black Bull for an evening meal last Saturday and whilst it was busy, service was swift, we were greeted with a warm friendly smile and a 'I wont keep you 2 mins goes a long way' when a bar is busy so that was appreciated.

There is plenty of selection on the menu for everyone and they even cater for Vegan. Veggie and Gluten Free which is a nice change to see.  Would be nice to perhaps see the specials on a menu board.  Prices are reasonable and on a level with the surroundings pubs

I had the Black Bull Burger which was very tasty, the cheese sauce was delicious as was the chilli black pudding which I had not had befor, great to have homemade chips on the plate also as well as coleslaw.  Nicely presented.  My partner had the Lasagne which was also very tasty, nice and crispy on the edges just the way I like it and nice to have proper garlic bread and not frozen.

We didnt have room for desserts unfortunately but the customers over from us had them and wow they looked good so maybe next time.

The ladies toilets could do with a refurbishment but nevertheless they were clean which is a deal breaker for my partner.  Nice big beer garden to the rear with brollies for shade.

The new owners have only just taken over in the last few months so hats off to them.

We will be back and would recommend
