About This Pub
Oh, let me tell you about The Bulls Head in East Leake – it's one of those pubs that just warms your heart from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is spot on, with all those lovely blossoms and trees creating a magical, garden-like feel that makes you forget you're in a typical local spot. The food's a highlight too; I've heard rave reviews about the Thai chicken and burgers, and it sounds like everything's served up fresh and flavoursome, with portions that leave you satisfied. The team there are absolute gems, always cheerful and ready to make your visit special – imagine getting a surprise birthday platter just because! It's brilliant for catching up with mates or family gatherings. That said, it's not all perfect; on busier days, things can drag a bit with slower service, and you might end up chasing for the basics like a drink of water, which takes the shine off a tad. Still, overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening – just pop in when it's not heaving, and you'll likely have a cracking time.

Amazing atmosphere, best interior design with all the blossoms & trees . We ordered starter and my main was Thai chicken which was amazing
We sat in the Garden area which is like a huge conservatory.The place was so nice full of families , welcoming staff and worked really hard to serve people to the maximum
Food was delicious , aromatic and full of flavours
Drinks , mocktails were superb a bit sugary & sweet at the start but once the ice melts a bit they it becomes better refreshing
Big car park but was full so you need to find somewhere to park on the main road
Very nice setting with good food, and excellent staff.
I would definitely come back.
The club sandwich and the chicken burger was delicious and I would have again.
Can’t recommend The Bulls Head in East Leake enough. Not only is the place absolutely beautiful, but the staff genuinely go above and beyond. Every single one of them is just incredible. I celebrated my birthday there on my own, and to my surprise, the team brought out a birthday platter with ice cream and sweets, along with a birthday card signed by all the staff – honestly, it meant the world to me, and I had to fight back tears. The cocktails are also spot on – so delicious. Thank you all so much – you really made my day!
Not a great experience. Table booked for 15:30 on a Bank Holiday Monday. It was very busy and service was v. slow. We were placed in the corner tent behind a fake tree. I asked for water with the drinks order - never arrived. After the food I asked again, never arrived. Had to track down a server and walk with them to the bar. Pizza was dry, teriyaki beef portion was small. Plates not cleared after eating for about 1hr. Ice cream flavours were mixed up. It was disappointing and didn’t live up to expectations
We started by having a drink in the bar area whilst waiting for our table. The host was lovely and welcoming. The server was Lydia was great, got all our food correct. The food was all great and decent size! My favourite food was the Jack Frost dessert. I would definitely return! Was my 2nd visit already!
