We have been meaning to try this place for a long time as it is always advertising in The Standard paper. Went for Sunday lunch but we were very disappointed and will not be going again. The starters we had were okay but the roast... View all feedback.

Had a family meal here before attending a wedding the next day. The staff were excellent and the food was amazing.

Ordered and collected the Roast on the Road for our Sunday dinner and it was delicious! Always quality food and service! Thanks again!

The Bell, a traditional countryside pub, has received mixed reviews. While some diners praise the welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious freshly cooked food, others have been disappointed by the declining quality of meals under new ownership. Despite the cozy ambiance and helpful staff, concerns have been raised about overpricing and inconsistent food quality. Regular patrons have noted a significant decline over the years. However, others have enjoyed their visits, appreciating the Covid safety measures, good service, and tasty meals. Overall, opinions are split on whether The Bell remains a top choice for dining or has seen better days.
