Last month me and my wife were lucky enough to have our wedding reception at The Bell. The staff were friendly and attentive, the food choice and quality was exceptional, and they put together a wonderful wedding cake for us. It was a perfect end to our Wedding day. -Perfect traditional country pub & restaurant would highly recommend to anyone.

Have driven past this pub lots of times and never ventured in until last night. It's clearly not a beer pub, as only Fosters and Kronenbourg on tap but hey, this pub is for diners who appreciate really amazing home cooked food (nothing frozen or pre-prepared in this pub!) and really professional friendly service from a young crew. I'll definitely being going back...such a nice change to be charged reasonable prices for decent food (not Brakes or dreary fish and chips). PS desserts are top notch!

Fantastic old pub been here many times for a drink but haven’t eaten here since before Covid. Sean and Ann are great hosts. The menu is excellent. We had smoked haddock kedgeree to start and monkfish samphire and a cream sauce for main also a chicken supreme and a pork dish all dishes were presented extremely well and very tasty. Washed down with a couple of bottles of Savignon. You must give this a try.

Very friendly cheerful landlady. Excellent range of well kept and unusual real ales. Very much the hub of local life, with darts matches and meetings of the Vintage Motorcycle Club. No food.

I called up to book for myself and my partner. I ended up having to amend my booking a couple of times due to unforeseen circumstances but the lady who took my call was extremely accommodating so I can’t thank her enough for that. We were greeted by the same lady when we arrived who gave us a warm welcome and got us sat quickly and took our drinks order. Drinks came quickly and we decided to go for prawns and duck rolls for starter followed by fish and chips for main finishing up with Lemon Syllabub pavlova and butter scotch and pecan cheesecake. We couldn’t fault the food on the evening. Starters were delicious and the fish and chips we both had for mains were really tasty and very filling. The home made deserts were fantastic but definitely finishes us off, we were full after. Service through out the night was fault less, the staff were very attentive making sure everything was ok. We’ve never been to this pub before even though we are fairly local, but after tonight we would definitely come back. Thanks for a lovely evening.

I sadly do not live near to The Bell but luckily my friend does. We had lovely bread and olives to start with and then a huge portion- 3 delicious Seabass fillets with crispy sweet potato chips. My other friend has skate wing which was good and meaty. The landlord was very friendly and we had a good chat with him. I can't stop thinking what a lovely meal we had. The puddings looked yummy but sadly we were too full to partake. A real gem in the middle of the countryside.
Been going there for 15years ,, best food ever,, and especially the roast on a Sunday,, never had a bad meal, and service is second to none,,,

From the friendly welcome, to the amazing food, you would not believe this isn’t somewhere in London, charging stupid money. We felt like we were the only ones there. Attentive staff, amazing. 10/10

What a treat to come back to the Bell after Covid, still good food ,well cooked and home made. So many pubs are having to produce mediocre food at increased prices but The Bell is not cheap but not much more than the run of the mill meals produced elsewhere. Well done!

Outstanding food. Good service. Good beer. Good selection of gin also. Not the cheapest but you wouldn't expect it to be with the quality of food. The price reflects the quality
