People were lovely and friendly, food was not that good, potatoes were reheated or frozen, yorkshire pudding tough like that had been frozen, such a shame as good atmosphere but won't be back ...

Attending wedding nearby and booked for 2 nights, first night was greek, the food was great, and staff really nice and friendly, the room was spacious with tea/ coffee facilities, large TV, and equally large bed, slept really well, quite happily book again when we are next in area, this is a 14th century listed building with rooms in a separate building next to pub. Breakfast was continental with good choice of items, full cooked breakfast was optional (extra charge) but well worth it.

Our friends booked a table today to take us for Sunday lunch. The roasts and puddings were delicious, and we were glad we didn?t have a starter as we are all stuffed!! ? the staff and the service was fantastic! Lovely quiet country pub in beautiful settings. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!

I visited on a recommendation, and I was not disappointed. I realised it was a pub I had eaten roast dinner in 35 years ago!
There are plenty of starter options, but bearing in mind the size of the roast dinner, I'm glad we skipped that course.
One of our group had pork, one lamb, myself, and my friend had beef. I must say it wasn't fall apart, tender, and we grabbed a replacement knife, which made the cutting easier. Flavour was lovely and had no grissel or fat in sight. The pork came with the best chunk of crackling. Both the lamb and pork were very tender. You get served a plate of meat with 2 yorkshires stuffing and gravy each. Your table is provided with bowls of cabbage carrots and peas. Another bowl is piled high with irresistible roast potatoes. Ple ty of mint, apple, and horseradish sauce All for about £20 per head. I normally take photos but was so hungry for a traditional family style sunday roast I completely forgot. We also had the tiramisu, which was a traditional style and flavour. Also, mixed sorbet. Followed by brandy, calypso, and amaretto floater coffees.
We were not rushed, but the roast was served quickly and piping hot. With a pre dinner drink and wine, it was around £40 per head.. excellent value. And roasts were being served into the evening, too.
A lovely open glowing log fire in a traditional old style pub. Great friendly atmosphere, too.
Disabled access was a bit tricky having parked at thd rear with no disabled bays we had to walk up the incline of the car park entrance and accross the front of the pub and down the side to get access.

Went to the Black Bull yesterday lunchtime with 3 friends. Good selection of beer and wine. The grilled Plaice was superb, served with prawns and lemon butter. My friends all had the Skate wing as a main course. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and will definitely be returning.
Update November 2024. The skate has now been removed from the menu. However all of the meals myself and my 5 other friends ordered were excellent.

Location is lovely, staff were helpful and polite, food was average for a pub. 12 of us, most had the roast, I had the fish. I won there, the roasts looks ok and good enough but the fish was good.
didn't stay in a room

We holidayed in a Fyfield AirBNB, a last minute decision after the booked residence at Bishops Stortford cancelled our booking only three weeks before our trip from Australia. The icing on the cake was this pub about 200m from the front door. A Free House pub, it has a good selection of ales and other beers and pub food of excellent quantity and quality. The staff are very friendly and the landlord and landlady, despite being Arsenal fans ?, accepted this Tottenham fan at their bar with the minimum of ridicule ?. The landlord even accepted my gift of a Queensland Police Service shoulder patch for the pub?s ?Bullshit Corner? (a very appropriate place for it). With family in the local area, we?ll be sure to visit when we return to the UK.

There is no storage in any room, no wardrobe or chest of drawers, no shelf or cabinet in the bathroom, only place to put anything is on the floor, think they have a cheek calling this a hotel. It?s more like a prison cell. Do not stay here
Rooms: Disgusting, nothing else to say

Excellent place to stay, or just pop in for a drink and food
