Sustainable Practices

The Black Bull Inn prioritizes local sourcing, obtaining ingredients from nearby farms and producers to guarantee the highest quality. Meat comes directly from local farms, including grass-fed beef and wild venison, ensuring freshness and responsible farming. This commitment to sustainability extends to the garden, which produces herbs and fruits used in the kitchen.

The garden offers extensive seating options, including sun traps and covered areas amidst local flora. This setting also features fruit trees and an herb terrace, contributing to the culinary offerings of the restaurant.

Animal Welfare

The Black Bull Inn is home to two Tamworth pigs and free-range chickens, reflecting a commitment to animal welfare and environmental sustainability.
