"Date night with the wife. I was looking for somewhere local I had never been, which did food I could eat. I'm off carbs and sugar... for my diabetes type 2. I've lived here forever but I had never had reason to come in before. So reading the menu meat it was then. Realised they had cheese pie which is a real crowd pleaser for the wife. Parked up right outside, which was good. There isn't much parking at the pub so be warned. Went in around 7 on a Friday night and it was busy. The service was...slow. I'm off beer as well as sugar, so tried the Brooklyn lager...and it was really good. If less than ideal 2g sugar 100ml. Managed to drink 2 bottles before we got our order in. Specials are blah blah blah...sorry no cheese pie... Damn it there go my brownie points. So we ordered one special starter and one off the main, and two main courses. Black pudding scotch eggs, and cod balls. Fish n Chips and Mixed Grill no chips. 5 mins later no Black pud scotch eggs...can we have the brie...5 mins later...yup no brie. Hmm We both had the cod balls. Absolutely starving when they arrived. 30 minutes after we arrived. Good job they were fabulously good. Sadly I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture. Perfect crust on them, lots of fish and only a bit of potato (hmm didn't say that on the menu). A further relaxed 30 minute wait followed for our main course. My meal was fine. Not the best ever, I had opted out of the chips, and it came without much salad. Which I would normally have expected to be there. Almost looked like they had left room for it on my plate but forgot to serve it. Though to be fair that's probably where the chips would go. The fish was really great for the wife and her chips were yummy. Stole one shh don't tell the diabetes. The atmosphere was good, all the people were friendly, it was just a bit slow. All in all I will go back though perhaps pick a steak next time, and ask for some salad with it."

"I bring the family in every now and then for some good food. Waiting on staff are great and the chef is always accommodating. Tonight however, we came in on the spur of the moment and stumbled into curry. My “house manager” got herself a prawn masala and I plumbed for the lamb jalfrezi. It was one of the best hesitant menu choices I have ever made. The jalfrezi was not the hottest I have had, but it was certainly the tastiest and the lamb melted in the mouth. I’m sat here writing this thinking I’ll be back on Thursday night for sure. Kids meals were great too…. Battered fish was cooked beautifully and there were too many chunky chips for my daughter which were handy for mopping up my jalfrezi sauce haha. So lucky to have this place on our doorstep."

"I had a fantastic experience tonight. Visited Whalley with a friend after a fun time and just wanted to grab something to eat. We were quickly seated, served drinks, and had our food brought to us promptly. All of the staff were extremely attentive and friendly. Our plates were cleared as soon as we finished and they made sure we were satisfied with everything. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was enjoyable. We were in and out within an hour without feeling rushed. We really enjoyed it."

"I dined with here a week ago now. It was meant to be a very special occasion and it was ruined. We were told different things about the menu by different staff, which is frustrating when trying to order. Some things on the menu were not available, but this was not pointed out to us until we tried to order them, meaning an even longer unnecessary wait. The food was lovely, when we did eventually get it, as the wait time was quite long. We had ordered a white wine, the wrong wine was brought to the table twice. First a rose was presented to us, second was another rose, eventually we got the white wine. Shortly after this, we seen the same thing happen to a table next to us, they were presented with the same rose when they ordered a red. My mother went to ask for the bill and was told it would be dropped to the table. We sat and waited, with no sign of the bill. Eventually a waitress came to the table with a card machine, and acted surprised we had not received the bill, despite it being some time. This is not the first time we have left here disappointed. Unfortunately, I contacted The Black Bull over a week ago and have yet to hear back from them."
