Stayed here in the HI and also had dinner here. The crew is very friendly, the food was good and the atmosphere is nice. The service charge is billed automatically and so of course there are no more tips 😉 Our clear recommendation if you stay at the HI 👍

We were the only ones there (a family of 4) the service was pretty much not there. The bar had TV's on so the children were interested in them rather than the food. I had Gamberoni which lacked flavour. Which was a shame. I had this on a previous visit and found it was the same then. Very Very expensive for 5 prawns and some spaghetti (£16.49).

We went for lunch yesterday,on arrival told the waitress that we had a Tesco voucher to use and she told us that we could choose from any menu.We ordered our food,a starter and a main.While we were waiting for our order to come another waitress told us that we could only have food from the a la carte menu! Food arrived, nicely presented starter.Howevever we were underwhelmed by the main course.Chicken Milanese for my husband,looked like a frozen breaded chicken fillet from Lidl.My carbonara was tasteless. The final insult was the bill. £52.00. We won't be eating there again.Overpriced for what we had.

Nice food but took forever to come. Service was pretty bad, kept forgetting things and got some of our order wrong. I didnt send it back as they seemed a bit underwater. Great kids menu with 2 sizes for younger and older kids. Decent place to eat if you are staying at the hotel but wouldn't go out of my way to visit.

Bella Italian is a great option for a quick and delicious Italian meal. The service is friendly and efficient, the food is fresh and flavorful, and the prices are reasonable. I ordered the lasagna, which was made with layers of pasta, meat sauce, and ricotta cheese. The lasagna was cooked perfectly and was very flavorful. The meat sauce was rich and flavorful, and the ricotta cheese was creamy and smooth. The lasagna was also very filling, and I was very satisfied with my meal. For dessert, I ordered the cookie dough. The cookie dough was fresh and doughy, and it was served with chocolate. Overall, I had a good experience at Bella Italian and would definitely return. The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the prices were reasonable. I would give Bella Italian a 4 out of 5 stars.

Great service but the food could really be better. The garlic bread is actually just pizza dough, not very well baked, with butter and parsley on it. It doesn't even taste like garlic. The spaghetti Bolognese had too much pepper in the sauce, and was all in all not very tasty.

Classic Bella Italia, it is attached to a holiday Inn so was fairly booked up for dinner time, we had to get an earlier table. Wheelchair accessible and even sky football at the bar. Service was friendly and helpful. One of our dishes was missing an ingredient so was sent back and the kitchen quickly rectified it. Overall a good experience and will go back again sometime.

Went here in a group of 9 for my grandads birthday. We waited 45 minutes for our main meal to even reach us, Bolognese was watery, the fungi mushroom pasta looked and tasted revolting. Don’t even mention the deserts/ the brownie was gritty and powdery, the tiramisu was gritty anf left an awful residue in your mouth and the cookie with ice cream you couldn’t even cut the cookie it was so hard. Don’t eat here! Care to mention we didn’t get one smile from any of the waiters! Poor service and food was awful!

My wife and I went for the Bottomless Pizza. It was very good, I have been to bottomless pizzas before which have been a bit full-on every few minutes asking you whether you want another slice. At Bella Italia they were very laid back and the pizzas were delicious. The staff were also very friendly.

Booked here for mothers day because we love the westwood cross restaurant. We were the only people in the restaurant which we hoped meant good service. Got a free glass of champagne for mothers day which was a nice touch. However the food quality and size was very poor compared to the westwood cross restaurant. Took a long time for our food to come out and when it did we had half the portions that you get at the westwood cross restaurant for the same prices. Nice tasting food but won't be returning.

Went here to celebrate my 40th with my girls mates. The setting is calm, posh and covid safe. The restaurant is clean, welcoming and private and the staff are so helpful and made our evening flow effortlessly. We had the 2 meals for 12 99 as had bday cake to follow which I found out later and the staff brought it out with crackling candles. They gave me a free shot to enjoy when we had drinks after the meal and all the food and drink was so reasonable and the pasta was the softest I've ever had! 😋. If your looking for a good venue for a quiet meal or to celebrate a special occasion they at emore than happy to help you do this and leave u coming back for more. This booking was made I hasen to say because the week b4 hand my friend treated me to an afternoon tea here and saw Bella italia was now there and also I came back a week later as my hubby had also surprised me for an afternoon tea as well here. My only addition would be to have some quiet music to create a more ambient mood as it can b a little drop a pin in the lounge area. Will defo return in the future. Thanks to all the staff who helped make it so special.

For what I would call a plastic Italian restaurant this was really nice. The service was very good - staff were friendly professional and comfortable to engage. The food was hot well presented and flavoursome. As a Bella Italia this is very well hidden under the umbrella of Holiday Inn and is consequently quieter than you might expect - it was only by chance that we found it. In common with all the main stand alone Bella Italia restaurants they are happy to accept Tesco Clubcard vouchers as payment for food.

Absolutely appalling,rude to customers and staff, no table water had to pay for bottle water,because it was a "special menu" some items taken off, been using the restaurant for 10 years ,final straw when phoning for a table, told she no longer accepts more then 4 at a time, as she cant cope and staff shortages, and not allowed to go on the "special menu"and now wants £10 non refundable deposits, which in itself is not a problem ,but had considered ourselves regular longterm customers.

Just popped in for guinness and black and what a warm welcome we had. Ended up staying for Sunday lunch which was very well cooked and they certainly did not scrimp on the portions and very reasonably priced at £14.95. Keep up the good service and thank you we really enjoyed our dinner.
