Quinno _ left this review about The Bulls Head

Was probably quite a nice pub 40 years ago but has been subject to schizophrenic refurbs. Unusual anchor shape layout, might have been five rooms back in the day. Main U-shaped bar is green and cream with chocolate coloured ceiling beams. Pool room off right and a quite nice wallpaper dining area left with a small room and a little both snug behind. One ale on, GK Abbot, sightly sherry-esque and likely the penultimate one out of the barrel (NBSS 2, just). Rugby on the telly. Fat woman with jumbo false nails clacking way on her phone made me twitch like Inspector Dreyfus from the Pink Panther films.

Fairly basic town centre pub doing a brisk lunchtime trade. Four hand pumps with just Abbot and Hobgoblin Gold on. I went for a half of the former, which was pretty good (NBSS 3, £4.70/pint). There are several different seating areas, with some old furniture such as settles and old kitchen tables with flap extensions. The bar is fairly old by the look of it, with green and cream painted wood panelling, and a varnished top. The floor is modern veneer, but apart from that this seems like a pub that has been untouched for 50 years, including Radio 2 in the background, although there is a jukebox.

A decent traditional pub and the nearest to the bus station. Basically open plan through there are 4 distinct areas to sit. A pool table is to the right of the bar. 4 handpumps on the bar but only 2 working, dispensing Rev James and Salopian Oracle today.
