General Manager

Paul Busby

My name is Paul Busby. I know quite a few already know me, my family or remember me from my time at Reubens in Whitchurch or The Swan in Tarporley.
For those who don't - I am 34 years old, and have been doing this type of work since I turned 18. I love hospitality, meeting new people and probably have spent the same amount of time on both sides of the bar!
I also became a father on May 3rd 2021 for the first time. Honestly you really do not appreciate parenthood until you experience it yourself. It is something I wouldn't change for the world.
I am always happy to chat to everyone. The locals just need to give me time to get used to names!


​Head Chef

 Head chef Pete England has lots of experience in cooking fabulous food which you can tell because he's very tall.  And he has a beard.

Assistant Manager

Picture
James Rickerby is a local guy. Started his career in the restaurant & bar at Hawkstone Park Hotel. The old manager of the Bull, Mike, saw his potential and employed him as his assistant. Thankfully James has stayed on to help Paul find his way around. Most of the time he is feeling worst for wear but if you speak to him, he doesn't really drink! REALLY??!!

Other Bulls and Dogs........

Jack, Becki, Niamh, Daisy, Chloe, Mason, Tom, Jane, Evie, Caoimhe and  Charlotte although none actually look that much like bulls or dogs.  Much.
