Blue Bell Inn in Carlisle

Always Nice home cooked food Lovely Cosy Inn Mslcolm and Jayne are super people Highly recommended

Beautiful pub , I was in a year or so a go and the pool team playing were so funny. There was a man called David who at first appeared very weird but once got speaking he was a very interesting man. Kind and friendly pub which nice food.

Awful female owner who is nasty to staff and insulted my wife, won’t be returning and will be telling other people the same. If you want to stay in business maybe learn some good customer service skills or compassion??

Always lovely food and reasonably priced. Lovely atmosphere- especially when the fire is lit in colder months. Definitely worth a visit

Lovely meal great landlady and landlord reasonably priced really enjoyed the evening

Fabulous food. Lovely proper pub

Come for the chips alone!! Off the beaten track, small, local pub with a very warm welcome, some great local beers and outstanding food. The standard of cooking was excellent and the portion sizes were very generous. Everything was very tasty, with really nice quality ingredients, but the star of the show were the chips... exactly like your mum used to make. Highly recommended if you're in the area. You can book ahead to avoid disappointment.

Fantastic cosy, country pub. A warm, friendly welcome and delicious home cooked food.

Home cooked meals. Friendly atmosphere.

A very small rural pub. It's not a tourist pub, but the welcome is warm. The opening hours are not regular. When they are open, the open at 5.30pm until late. They do open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and maybe one or two others during the week.

Always great at The Bluebell Lovely atmosphere Welcoming hosts and the very best food around

Delicious food, great country pub.

Went for a meal with 6 other friends on Saturday night and it was amazing everyone was very satisfied and loved what they had, thank you so much Blue Bell Newbiggin.

Proper pub, great beer, not enough of these real pubs left. Great food, good company.

Very very nice place lovely food nice people well recommend it

Very nice indeed. The event I attended was very well catered for.

Called here on a Thursday evening, what a great meal we had. Superb choices of food and great vegetarian choices. Fish and Chips and a Vegetarian Brie and nut pie, both meals were absolutely lovely, so tasty and fresh. We shared a nice bottle of wine. The landlord and landlady were attentive and friendly

We were staying on the High Hall Farm campsite and wanted to sample some local food and atmosphere. We decide to go to the Blue Bell Inn. Food was fantastic and we loved the portions sizes. Proper home made food, delicious. We also enjoyed a game of pool which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Beautiful place with magnificent food, would definitely go again.

Had alovely meal yesterday so nice to see jane & malcolm bubble and welcoming as ever. Your cuisine never disappoints, thank you.

Malcolm and Jane provide the perfect environment for a family gathering or an intimate meal for two. The premises are COVID secure and the service is second to none. The food is of the highest quality and great value. Jane is an excellent chef. Malcolm mans the bar and is the perfect host making you feel welcome from the moment you walk through the door. I cannot recommend their establishment highly enough.

A great friendly, traditional, Cumbrian Inn. Good beers. Excellent food. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic pub grub. Excellent service from the staff.

Lovely owners lovely staff lovely food - xxxxx

Jane and Malcom are the best hosts. Great pub, great food . Your plate is piled high and they do a great kids menu. Always good on price.

Beautiful home cooked food, will defiantly be back.

Best pub grub in the area, by far.

Good old fashioned English pub with good and plentiful food. We have visited on a few occasions and the comments are always relevant. Nice to see a village pub still thriving.

Always a good meal at the bluebell

Proper traditional pub with good jukebox. Shame they only do Guinness in cans (especially at £3.60 a pint!) but otherwise good place

Friends and I went last night, we've been before, cannot fault it the food was fantastic,everyone enjoyed it,highly recommended (we will be back).

Best Sunday roast I've had in ages. Generous portions sizes and well cooked.

Good home cooking, very good. Costs very reasonable. Owners and staff very friendly. Traditional atmosphere. Great fire in winter.

Great food cozy old fashioned pub and wonderful friendly owners and atmosphere

Warm hosts and warm pub. Lovely food and not expensive.

Very friendly, fantastic food and huge portions!

Another fabulous meal and evening with Malcolm and Jane

Food was excellent! Nice friendly atmosphere. A bit inconveniently located though.

Tuvimos un almuerzo en el jardín de la cerveza hoy en día. Este es un pub tradicional y agradable en una ubicación hermosa totalmente virgen en la zona North Pennines de extraordinaria belleza natural. La comida era deliciosa, como las bebidas. El propietario y la dueña era muy acogedor. Sin duda este camino a pie perro de nuevo!

Never lets you down. Always a great night oit with great food and laughs.

Seguros, independientemente si la gente está recibiendo pubs mezclado uo pero estoy revisando la bola azul en malton. Cerca decidimos visitar malton a visitar el pub 2 pubs en mi libro de patrimonio. Nos encantó la bola azul del siglo 18 justo en la calle. Muy antiguo con un montón de características de época. El minúsculo bar se encuentra en el centro del pub. Fascinante. La casera y la gente local es muy amable y el Rev james ale en el formulario. Pubs como este son una raza muriendo y muy difícil de encontrar por favor ir probarlo

We were on our way to Robin Hoods Bay with some Australian visitors and decided to pop into Malton for a light lunch as we had booked an evening meal at our destination. We went into the Blue Bell Inn and asked about food. We were told they were serving food, then we were told its was only Sunday lunch. We saw the menu which said how much starters were and mains etc, so we thought we would all just have a starter each and a few drinks. We were told very rudely and abruptly that this wasn't possible - starters had to be followed by a mains! Needless to say we didn't stay. Such a shame that an ignorant bar person is happy to turn away business! Their loss.

Needed an easy Saturday bar meal and pint. Wife went for seabass and I took the scampi. Doombar and landlord drinks with great deserts. Perfect food at good prices in a perfect quiet town pub. Recommended.

Lost count of how many times I have visited the Blue Bell since discovering it in 2004. Excellent food and atmosphere on Thursday night when me and my son were stopping nearby for the night on the way back from Ireland. For followers of cycling the Tour of Britain (Stage 5) will be passing by on September 10th and the Blue Bell would be an excellent vantage point to eat, drink and enjoy the cycling.

Staying in nearby Cumrew, this little gem of a pub has friendly staff, great choice of food both meat and vegetarian dishes cooked by the landlady. it's how a country pub should be. As Arnie said: "i'll be back!"

I first came across this pub when I stayed in the area in 2003 and I have been going back every year since. The food is home cooked and has been consistently good in all my years of going. One year there was crocodile steak on the specials (never tried that!). Malcolm and Jane are the the perfect hosts, in what is a small, homely and welcoming village pub.

Have been here many times, always excellent food, will ensure I get gluten free and will adapt menu's where possible. Old fashioned pub, not many left, and a good pint so my husband says. We have always enjoyed our meals, and the salads are wonderful, with fresh fruit in too. Large portions, well worth a visit.
