This pub was on my list of places to visit for a Sunday lunch and it was well worth it the 40 mins drive from Woodford. The pub itself is from around 1400 I believe and has a lot of original features which is beautiful to see like fireplace and wooden supporting beams. Service was great from booking to being seated and waiting staff. Love that the menu Is written on the chalkboard and there was a wide selection of roasts; beef, lamb, pork, chicken and nut roast for vegetarians. I went for the large mixed plate and it was really big - but overall portion sizes are great anyway. Comes with all the trimmings which were all at a good standard. Only one point was that there were no craft beers available, except for green king IPA ale which wasn't very good. I would recommend a few craft beer cans in the fridge as a test to see if people go for it. Overall really very good 5*

Amazing Sunday roast beef lunch experience! Classic and cozy old pub feel with excellent cuisine 😋 Highly recommend a visit. Do make sure you book in advance as it always seems to be fully booked, very popular for Sunday lunch! Recommend the cauliflower cheese and broccoli too. Apple crumble for dessert was great too (Pictured: Roast beef. Apple crumble)

We went to the Black Bull after being invited by friends to join them for dinner there. The building is very quaint and very old with low beams. The menu is written on a blackboard and with desserts on another. It was mostly roast dinner with a choice of beef pork chicken and lamb. 2 of us had the roast beef, which came with a huge plate of veg ( potatoes, peas,carrots, and sprouts). Our friends had a mixture of beef, chicken, and lamb. We all agreed it was a lovely meal. The portions were very generous and the staff were very efficient but friendly. Drinks were ordered from the bar. The cost was a little higher than we normally pay but well worth the extra.
