| Visited with my wife on the way back up the M4. The Bull is only a short ride from the junction. They have a new young chef and the food was fantastic. We ate off the evening menu and this is a mixture of classic English Pub food with a modern twist. We had Whitebait and Scallops to start with and these were very well presented and cooked, followed by fish and chips and belly of pork with black pudding. The portions were very generous, especially as the mains were only £10.00 each. Will make an effort to stop next time we are going down the M4. 906col - 13 Oct 2011 09:58 |
| Tuesday afternoon - bus from Reading, stops opposite,went in for a pint,friendly greeting from the barmaid;orderd a pint of IPA;she pulls off some beer before serving me (nice touch);beer good;tasty and cool (not cold) not many people in the bar but plenty to keep me occupied(local papers and newsletters/TV without sound - sadly the quiz machine had all the wrong answers on it). OK this place may well change in the evening at at weekends but I liked it when I visited and that's all I can judge it by. £2.70 for the beer was good these days. mcroyal - 9 Feb 2011 20:36 |
| Happy to call this pub my local, and what a change we've seen in the last couple of years. The food is posh nosh restaurant quality and not too pricey either. This is definitely not your generic Harvester type grub ! The Bull has become the most popular Eat-Out location in Theale, with the kitchen buzzing even on weekday nights ! Regular live bands, (a favourite venue for Reading band The Quotes). Two weekly Quiz Nights, - Large screen for sports coverage. (Upstairs area enables coverage of 2 games or Rugby + Footie combo. Upper bar also doubles as private venue for meetings / meals / parties etc. The refurb of the "back room" has really brought the place to life - almost like stepping from the pub into a different venue. Good choice of wine - 2 or 3 well kept Wadsworths Ales on at all times. Can't believe all of this is 1/4 mile from my house ! watsonworld - 21 Feb 2010 15:05 |
| Wow, what a transformation! This pub has had a massive uplift. I used to come in occasionally (when in the area) but will try to come here more often! There is more wine choice, more cask ale choice (my partner is happy!) and the food is better than ever! There is a new seating area at the back which is lovely for drinking or eating, the staff are polite, professional and freindly! Recommended. schush95 - 7 Dec 2009 20:24 |
