About This Pub

Ah, The Little Bull, what a gem in Middlestown! I've got to say, it's one of those places that just warms your heart with its welcoming vibe and cracking beer selection – you can't go wrong with a pint of the local stuff while catching some live music. The staff are always up for a chat, and the atmosphere feels just right, whether you're there for a quick drink or a proper meal. That home-cooked food, especially the Sunday lunch, is something special; it's hearty and done with care, though it might mean waiting a bit, which is fair enough for fresh grub. On the flip side, I do miss those log fires they had before – it could make the place even cozier on a chilly evening. All in all, it's a fantastic spot for a laid-back night, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a proper pub experience without the fuss.

Pros and Cons

Pros
  • The beer selection is absolutely spot on – plenty of great local ales that hit the mark every time.
  • It's got a really welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff and customers, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in.
  • Live music adds a fun vibe, perfect for a relaxed evening out.
  • Prices are spot on for a good night without breaking the bank.
  • The home-cooked food, especially the Sunday lunch, is a real treat and it's super dog-friendly too, which is brilliant if you're out with your furry mate.
Cons
  • They've taken out the log fires, which might make it feel a bit less cosy during the colder months.
  • If you're popping in for food, it can take a while since it's all made fresh, so it's not ideal if you're in a rush.

Well for a start, you carn’t go wrong calling this pub the little bull. Every window has a blue bull printed on it. At the front of pub is a big blue bull printed on it. The entrance door is blue. The window blinds are blue. Inside the decoris blue. They took out the two log open fires. They took away all the bar stools. Theirs a bandit gambling slot money machine standing at the bar now. Bandit gambling mchines in the pool table room. I got half glass of sparkling cider. I gave a ten pound note to the bar tender. He was busy and looking and talking to his next customer. I had my change nearly thrown at my hand and missed. I was not impressed. I visited the pub a few months ago. I got a pint of John smiths bitter. I took the glass of John smiths outside and sat on the new bench. I was waiting for my bus. The bustop right outside the little bull. My bus came before I had time to drink my John smiths. I got on the bus with my pint of John smiths in my coat pocket. The bus driver did not see me. The manager of the little bull was watching everything. He saw me getting on the bus with a pint glass of John smiths. I was unaware of this. I didn’t mean to do it. I wasn’t thinking straight. Next time I went in the little bull. The manager was ready for me. He said I should be barred. He served me a drink. I have since on my eBay. Bought the manager of the little bull. Pint glass of John smiths. Costing me £8.50.I have it right now and I’m taking the glass down to the little bull today at 2pm. They do not serve cooked food. Or even a cold sandwich. Just crisps and nuts. Round the back of the blue little bull. They have took away all the garden furniture and umbrella shades. All the swings and slide have gone. Their is a couple of benches with no umbrella shades. Thanks for the read.

Just a proper pub with friendly staff, good local ales and great home cooked food, if you order food it might take a while as its made and cooked to order. Sunday lunch is great and the range of puddings, home made, is terrific. Very dog friendly and really good at looking after the older members of the family.
