Yesterday table booked for 3.15, party of eight ,waited ages for a table,food arrived 5.15. Yes two…read morehours, unreal eh ! Obviously tables overbooked ! Didn't complain at the time for obvious reasons. Large car park has room to accommodate more than the two disabled parking bays. Staff were fine, but the volume of customers needs to be addressed with a time restriction imposed. My Toad in the Hole was burnt in the Skillet, staff offered to replace same but after waiting two hours I wasn't prepared to accept a further delay. Will not be returning

I tried out their new spring menu for main courses have a Super Greens Salad with Chicken and Desserts with Caramel Banana Waffle. Also because of new food law labels of calories and good idea show high or low calories on menu. 3 Bull Inn Hockley (owner) 10 months ago Five stars! Wow, thank you!

We look forward to seeing you again soon to turn that 4 into a 5 star review. David Fisher 1 review·2 photos 15 hours ago NEW LEFT ABANDONED - 90 YEAR OLD DISABLED MAN AND 82 YEAR OLD WIFE. The three of us visited this Greene King pub on Monday 27 February 2023 at 1230. We pre-booked our table for food and drinks about ten days prior, via their website, clearly stating my father is disabled and uses a cane and is very slow and requested a table near to the entrance, warm and if possible near to the toilet. We arrived 15 minutes early. The waitress at the computer pointed to our table (table 8) and we found our own way to the bench seat and two chairs. The velour backing on the bench was badly stained. After about ten minutes a male employee in a business shirt and tie came over and said someone would be over to take our order for drinks and food. Sit there and do not go to the bar someone will be over. Twenty minutes later (so we have been in the pub 30 minutes now on a QUIET MONDAY WEEKDAY) I worked out we had been forgotten. Our visit was not going well. So thirty minutes in to our visit I go to the bar to order drinks. I advise the girl behind the bar we want to run a tab, as we are eating and want to order asap. She never swiped our card, but said a tab was up and running and to pay at the end. I take the three drinks back on my own (a tray would of been nice and a smile from the bar staff but hey its a Monday and they are busy - not lol). Another 30 minutes later (so an hour now) we still haven't been able to order our food. Depite staff obviously aware we are cheesed off as we are constantly trying to catch their eye (see picture) we decided to pay our bill for the drinks and leave. By the way, when we paid we were never asked if we had a nice time etc. So, over the past 8 days I have been in contact with Guest Relations at Greene King who said they would investigate and "put things right" with them coordinating with the pub management and business development manager. Today I got an email saying Robert was trying to contact me, but was unable to do so. My mobile is always on and I have no voice mails or missed calls, so someone is confused and it isn't me matey. Do not visit this pub (in my opinion and without prejudice) because if you have a terrible experience at a local level, the corporate guest relations staff aren't, in my experience, any better. I was left with an email suggestion saying I could ring Robert if I was still unhappy. So people here is the truth. My family and friends will avoid Green King pubs and especially the Bull Pub - instead we will give our loyalty to independent pubs that thankfully still exist. PS. I had the General Manager ring me on 7/3/23. Appalling attitude and told him so and thereafter complained to Greene King HQ. Don't shoot the messenger.
