Arrived 15 mins before, table was only booked for 3 people when it should have been for 5. Took them a few mins to sort the table. Lemonade was a bit flat but food was spot on and service was good. Would go again.

The food was excellent although the service was very slow, we were seated as soon as we arrived but waited half an hour for drinks alone, other than that it was a lovely experience

The burger had bone in it. The steak was mostly gristle. We will not be returning. From having starters cleared to having mains delivered was over an hour. Poor service all round

Food was fantastic, we really enjoyed it. The only downfall was we waited a while for drinks as the bar was so busy. Would definitely recommend The Fat Bull for anyone wanting a top quality steak at a decent price.

Great food and friendly staff. The steaks are cooked to perfection, and I can honestly say the creme brûlée is the best around. Book early as the restaurant is often full

:) Delicisous food and a great deal on half price steak nights. :( The last two visits I have made the restaurant has been so noisey that I have struggled to hear my friends and the service has been quite slow. I probably wouldn't book to go again in an evening.

Service was great , Starter was lovely. But sadly the steak was the worst I have had as long as i can remember. I went for the Flat Iron and never again. Tough as old boots , the steak knife actually struggled to get through at times. I also felt embarrassed to keep removing grissley bits from my mouth and placing on the plate. It could have been the choice of steak as friends had a fillet and said it was Steak from heaven .

Food was fantastic, an could not be faulted, with great sized portions. The service unfortunately was quite slow. This regarding the ordering of drinks and our food. The speed once ordered was fine though.

Do not book a table on line as they don't recognize it and your not booked in! They said it doesn't work. But we were lucky it was not full and they found us a table.

Had steak which was cooked perfectly and the sticky toffee pudding was perhaps the best I have ever tasted. Service was a little slow but we put that down to them training new staff.

The food was absolutely amazing. I would have given 6 however the service was quite slow, we had asked for more drinks and had to go and find someone as the waitress never returned to take the order also had to wait a while for table to be cleared between courses. The food definitely would make me visit again as it is so worth it, 2 out of our party go out to eat often and to some top restaurants and they said it was the nicest food they had had for a long time.
