The Bull & The Hide Review

Loved the appetizers. Very English. Lotsa fish. Too yummy. The waitress was very awesome. We loved it. Tons of food. It felt to us (Americans) as very British....so we had a nice time there (it's above a pub as well - cool place).

Went to the Bull and Hide pub with my son today, for a snack and a drink. We ordered two of their ‘hot salt beef sandwiches on rye’ and a side of their ‘skin on chips’ to share. After waiting for quite a long time, our food arrived. I am now going to describe the ‘hot salt beef sandwich’: A slice of whole meal bread, toasted, probably to disguise the staleness of the bread; toped up with some scraps of very dry, leathery meat, with a drizzle of mustard on top. Garnish of stale crisps and tired, soggy salad leaves. The chips: I can’t be bothered to describe them… I have eaten better chips at McDonalds. Probably the worst sandwich we have eaten in a long time. We were quite hungry, because we had been to see an exhibition at the Barbican and we had had only a cup of tea for breakfast, otherwise I think we would have walked out. Indifferent service.
