The Langham Blue Bell

Charming and cozy village restaurant with delicious, fresh ingredients. The food was served piping hot, and the fries were warm and crispy. I usually skip dessert, but I opted for the chocolate orange brownie sundae, which was fantastic—rich dark brownie chunks paired with tangy orange slices, a refreshing orange gel, chocolate sauce, and topped with vanilla ice cream. It was a delightful way to end the meal, leaving a refreshing taste on the palate. Overall, I’d rate the food a 4 out of 5.

The vegan options at the bar are fantastic, and the staff is always happy to provide recommendations! They consistently offer a great vegan selection. Right now, they have a delightful vegan porn dish that's also gluten-free, along with two delicious vegan small plates—perfect for newcomers or families with kids enjoying drinks in the beer garden. There's also a vegan dessert and naturally, some sorbet available!

The menu offers a variety of vegan options. The BBQ jackfruit nachos were delightful and perfect for sharing.

The service was incredibly slow, even though we were the only customers in the restaurant. Out of our group of four, two meals were enjoyable—the mushroom risotto—while the other two were disappointing, particularly the pie and mash. The pie tasted like it was from a chip shop, and the mash was so grainy that you could slice it. Unsurprisingly, we didn't pay for the two unsatisfactory meals. On top of that, the beer was warm. We've visited this restaurant several times in the past, but we definitely won't be returning. Food rating: 1/5.
