The Black Bull has went through a few managerial changes in the last couple of years, but it remains a nice pub, with a good atmosphere. The main bar is big enough to not be uncomfortable when it's busy, with good service the norm. I've had the food on a couple of occasions and it is fine, if a bit underwhelming. The snug bar is tiny, and absolutely lovely - pictures and poems in tribute to past locals adorn the walls. There is a surprisingly big beer garden located at the back of the pub, which is accessed through the function suite.

This is a great pub, excellent food, superb selection of beers, wines and spirits and the staff are really top notch too, especially Jimmy who is a true legend. Do yourself a favour and drop in........you will love it

This is a great pub, good beer, excellent food and friendly service. The mixed grill was cooked to perfection - you could tell that it had been cooked there and then and not kept warm and dehydrated under hot lamps. We got a �5 voucher to use on our next visit (which we did) which made it even better value!

Any pub selling Caledonian Ales is worth a visit in my book. It has a homely warm atmosphere and I found the clientel and staff very freindly.

Just gets better. As well as the usual they now have two guest beers which cahenge monthly.
If you want to eat here on a week-end then phone ahead and reserve a table.

Had a great meal here on Thurs eve - home made curry, excellent at only a fiver. Others with me loves ths oup and fish too. Also a brilliant pint of London Pride. This place went through the doldrums for quite a few years I think but these days it's spot on, was busy too with eaters so word has got around. Only pub worth going to in Mid Calder these days. The Black Bull is a great pub these days and you couldn't say that 10 or 20 years ago.

Good pub. Deuchars IPA, Caledonian 80 /- and Courage Directors. Food is variable. Staff and service generally very good.

This is a good little pub next to the chip shop. They have good quiz nights in here. Nice friendly atmosphere gets quite busy at the weekends but you will usually always get a seat. I would reccomend this pub to anyone.
