Ordered our lunch and sat waiting for over an hour, asked what the hold up was for and to be told it was a “burger” that was taking so long. Staff are to concer...

I visit this pub about every 6/7 weeks. A fantastic local.

The Black Bull in Mid Calder is a traditional old pub with a unique atmosphere and excellent food. While some customers have reported mixed experiences with service and food quality, the overall consensus is positive. The staff are friendly and attentive, the portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. The pub offers a wide selection of whiskeys and a cozy atmosphere for a relaxing weekend meal or a fun night out with karaoke. Hosting events at the Black Bull is highly recommended, as the staff are accommodating and the service is top-notch. Overall, a great spot for locals and visitors alike.

Best bar in Mid Calder, probably the best in West Lothian, possibly in Scotland

My meal, steak pie, wasn't very nice. A lack of meat, and bland vegetables. A pub that doesn't do a roast dinner on a Sunday?
