Bull Inn

Description

Tucked away in the heart of the picturesque village of Sonning-on-Thames, The Bull Inn is a historic Fuller’s pub brimming with charm, character, and comfort. Set within a stunning 16th-century building, the pub offers the perfect blend of old-world warmth and modern hospitality.

Inside, you’ll find cosy corners, crackling fires, and timber beams, creating a welcoming setting to enjoy a pint of Fuller’s ale or a glass of wine with friends. The menu celebrates the best of seasonal British food — from comforting pub classics to elegant chef’s specials, all crafted from quality local ingredients.

Steeped in history and literary charm, The Bull Inn was immortalised in Jerome K. Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat, described as “a veritable picture of an old country inn.” Today, it continues to offer that same timeless appeal — with seven beautifully appointed boutique bedrooms, delicious food, and the warm hospitality that makes every visit memorable.

Whether you’re joining us for a Sunday roast, a weekend away, or a quiet drink by the fire, The Bull Inn is a true village retreat, rich in heritage and full of heart.
