The Bull Dereham — Restaurant in Breckland District

We stopped here for a meal before going on the Polar Express. It's clear many Polar Express adventurers stop there to eat as the table next to us had a group of adults and children in their PJs. We got changed in to ours after eating. The pub is clearly popular with locals and had a lot if them in the bars and outside. There are lots of dining tables and the pub is cosy and winter warm. The food and menu are standard "Soup in a basket" pub fayre but the portions are a good size, the food is of a good quality and the prices are fair. The service was top notch and the waitresses were patient as the kids did the usual 15 choice changes and responded to all our requests e.g. extra gravy for the kids and slight change of what the meal came with. My most minor of issues and hence the only reason for the 4 out of 5 was that we were given a Fruit Shoot which we asked about and were told it came with a kids' meal despite the fact that we had ordered specific drinks for the kids. When the bill came they'd added the Fruit Shoot to the bill at £1.50. When I questioned this and said I'd been told it came with the meal, the waitress said that it came with the meal if we didnt have the ice cream, well guess what, we didn't have the ice creams.

I like it here, it has a welcoming proper Pub feel as soon you walk in the door. The drinks are not over priced and the staff are friendly.

I'm adding this foot note several months after writing the above review, the staff are pleasant enough but recently we have avoided going in here or staying very long as some of the staff or someone has a tendency to take over the jukebox and constantly play rap music with not very pleasant lyrics, vulgar in fact. So not wanting to get involved in a battle for something kinder on the ears we walk up to the george hotel where the punters are a bit more mature and the 80s 90s old school hits played are...

Having ordered mac and cheese and asking to swap out the garlic bread for plain naan because of allergy, we were given a garlic and coriander naan! When we complained, the young male in charge was argumentative saying they only ever serve garlic and coriander naans. My partner has eaten the same meal in this pubmany times with no issues. He was rude and accused my partner of throwing plates at him. When challenged he said she slid them towards him which is 3 quarters towards throwing them. He accused her of throwing wine all over the table which is absolutely not true. When he said he would only refund what we hadn't consumed she moved our drinks glasses towards him. He had absolutely no knowledge about food allergens and didn't see why he should, even though he is the one delivering food...
