Place is great for families as well as probably dates too and serves pretty good food, typical British pub food plus more. I enjoyed a vegetarian ravioli (delicious) but hesitated between a few other options, including the bass with risotto (colleague ordered) and the veggie burger (other colleague ordered)--both of which they said were quite good as well. Appetizers and desserts both looked great too, but none of us were interested in having more than the main course. Service was a bit all over the place (gave one of us the wrong drink, took a while to get the correct one and the waitress also forgot what one of our orders was but hey, didn't matter too much as it wasn't what I'd consider to be bad either) Hope to go back again at some point to try the other meals they have!

The log fire is a highlight for me and the barmaid is excellent at ensuring there is plenty of fuel on the fire - very important! Lots of locals frequent this pub who are friendly and dogs are welcome too. The food menu is homely and traditional. There is a back room with more tables and chairs but where the log fire is I follow! A regular favourite any time of the year.

There is a real log fire in the bar area, which provides a cosy and homely feel. On the weekends there is often a live band. The owners of the pub are friendly and are able to recommend wines. I am becoming a regular of this place, and will update my review when I try the food. There is also ample free car parking to the side of the pub.

Decor is fairly traditional here but very welcoming and clean, and its always got a good number of people in here - and fills up pretty well on weekend nights. There are cheap food and drink meals, with a very extensive menu of vegetarian and no veg items - i love their grill selections as well as their special promotions that change throughout the week. the curry night is a particularly good deal - i had a lovely chicken biryani here and a pint of real ale for, as i remember, about £4.95 which i thought was tasty and very good value. There are cheap desserts too. its also a really good value place to come too in the morning for a filter coffee, latte, etc and a muffin. Yum.

We visited the Bulls Head for lunch last Sunday with our good friend Danny who had advised that…read morethis was by far the best pub in the locality. This was the second example of the "village pub and inn" offering from Mitchells and Butlers (massive pub and chain food operator in the UK) that I have visited recently and it was much more successful than its sibling in Sussex. The Bulls Head is a nice old building which has been restored with some care and retains plenty of period charm. There is a seating option to suit all tastes so it's good for couples, with plenty of intimate nooks to get romantic in, and it also works well for larger parties. There is a spacious terrace out back for when the weather is a little more pleasant than on our visit. There was a decent choice of beer on offer with Doom Bar, Bombardier and 6x on the hand pump; all in fine condition, crystal clear and served at a good temperature. B was drinking the house White which she said was ok if a little bland. With the "village pub and inn" brand it's obviously all about the food and they are trying to attract an older crowd who want to have a meal and a couple of drinks rather than the "wet" only punters. The menu was a bit war and peace which is always a warning sign but our choices were well executed and presented (although for many dishes this means it's, at the very least, part prepared and then reheated). The roast selection, you get a decent size portion of three meats, was pretty tasty although you could easily have shared this between two people. Service was fine although you need to keep on top of your servers; they are all quite young and seem well trained in avoiding eye contact if they are in a busy spell. All in all we had a very pleasant Sunday lunch here and we would not hesitate to return. A well-deserved, rather than a grudging, 3 stars.

A wonderful pub and restaurant that is located in the beautiful countryside of Berkswell…read more The bar area is sufficient with high bar stools and tables and some lower seating such as arm chairs and most importantly a log fire! The pub was formerly a coach house back in the day, with low oak beams featuring inside - watch your head! There is a great selection on the menu - roasts, fish dishes, steaks and pies. I opted for the Homemade tomato soup which arrived steaming hot with shavings of Parmesan and croutons and brown bread - delicious! Next up was a Turkey roast lunch with all the trimmings and condiments such as cranberry sauce. Very tasty! Unfortunately I couldn't squeeze in dessert but apple pie, Creme Brûlée, and lemon cheesecake featured. Will have to try all three next time!! The service was slow to begin with, probably because it was so busy but once we received our food the service was great and they were attentive. A popular place to eat so be sure to book a table on the weekends.

I love visiting here at Christmas time and ordering a festive meal, it's such a great cosy pub…read morethat's full of glowing warmth. I've had many birthday meals here too, and the food is just amazing. The duck roast is something that I especially recommend, but for something a bit more exotic, I'd suggest trying the guinea fowl. Okay, the dishes aren't cheap, but the richness of the meat is absolutely amazing, and well worth the extra pounds. There's also some truly delicious starters such as prawn cocktail. In fact, I don't think I've ever eaten any average food here, it has always been mouthwatering; Compliments to the chef! I want seconds! In the summer, the garden at the back is a great place to grab a refreshing pint, especially when the sun is blaring. The staff here are very welcoming, and go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable, whether you're sitting inside or in the garden. I don't think there's anything bad to be said about this pub, the décor is old fashioned with wooden beams, and the atmosphere, clientele and aesthetics make the whole experience both a relaxed and enjoyable one.

This place is no longer called the Herons Nest but the Kings Arms and has really changed for the better. There are comfy sofas and armchairs, and the staff are friendly and helpful.

I once rocked up on a Sunday afternoon, not having booked a table and was told that the food would take an hour and a half to arrive! The pub is located by the Grand Union canal, and the outside seating is popular when the sun is shining. There is ample parking too, but again the car park can get busy at the weekends.
