I always go to the Ring o Bells when I visit my family in Nailsea. The atmosphere at the pub is welcoming and the roast dinner is like a home cooked meal. Delicious!

Cracking local pub with so many fun events. It's dog friendly, the food has lots of options including plenty of choice for vegetarians and proper home cooked chips! One of the best things about this place is that it's an inclusive space so all are welcome. Highly recommend

This may have been a one off but something was definitely off the last time we visited on a Wednesday. The four of us ordered drinks and food. The glasses were dirty and the pie crusts were barely cooked and almost raw. The chilli ordered by one of our party was too hot to consume and whilst a warning was provided, I feel that inedible heat is probably too much. The pub is clearly going through changes and as a local I will still continue to support this pub. The owners seem friendly enough and the general atmosphere of the pub is warm and welcoming.

Having tried other ‘popular’ places nearby we decided to try here and we feel lucky to have found it. We had the Sunday roast which was generous and delicious. The meats and roast potatoes in particular were excellent . We liked the option of having a small, medium or large plate. Anyone who manages to finish a large plate should get a medal. It was not too busy, the selection of beers were very good and ample parking in its own car park made this a place we look forward to visiting again.

This pub seems to be all over the place. lovely carvery but meat cold, lovely range of drinks at fair price but only one person serving hence queue and even colder food. It seems to be new owners yet again, who will take time to get it right. As for the customers it seems to be how much food can I get onto a small size plate. If you want a large dinner for goodness sake just pay the extra couple of quid to have one, it really is not a good look. The poor old pub needs to make a profit and the food is very good value why be so so tight. The biggest downside is the bar area , it is not quite as clean as it could be, the decor is old and tired and the seating is very close and cramped in places. This pub could be the pride of Nailsea with a little investment in the ambience and staff.

Went without booking at 2.30p.m. and accepted for a meal. Getting towards the end of Sunday carvery but plenty of hot food left. Had a 'medium' meal which was more than enough. Choice of beef, turkey or pork, or all three. A great variety of vegetables. My wife is 'gluten free' which was no bother. The selection was all gluten free, including cauliflower cheese and supplied with gluten free gravy. A very pleasing experience.

Inside the pub is a small traditional style pub. Old decor etc, decent selection of cold beverages. Outside there is a toddlers play area and another area for older children. But center stage is a covered outdoor section with a scaffold section in the middle, mounting 3 large televisions. (On this occasion football was being watched, possibly the FA cup?) There is 1 bunch outside of the covered area, thankfully this table was free as i had zero interest in the football or sitting in the shade staring at a TV on a beautiful summers day. There was no atmosphere and I stayed for just 1 drink before leaving. Not my cup of tea. Ps, parking was horrific.

We come to the Ring O Bells for Sunday Lunch regularly. Great choice of meats and veg all perfectly cooked. Great value for money in these troubled times and they dont rip you off for a glass of wine and a pint either. I must say though some of the patrons are an embarrassment, to save a quid they choose the small or medium meal then pile the plates as high as they can, it is almost overflowing. Im sure the pub offers the 3 sizes for a reason. Maybe unreasonable behavior will ruin this great value pub in the long run I hope not

What an awesome pub! We hired the function room for a Halloween party last night. Lots of people had pre ordered food and it all came out on time, piping hot and delicious. They were so great with letting us decorate the room and the staff were so helpful and accommodating. We even dragged them in to judge a competition. Nothing was too much trouble and we will most definitely be returning! The pub itself was full on the evening and was full of atmosphere. Huge thanks to the team at the Ringers!

Can’t believe it’s taken years to finally have a meal at the pub up the road! And now I’m asking why I haven’t been before. Good choice of typical pub food, nicely prepared and presented, and half price thanks to the generosity of the Chancellor of the Exchequer!! And the beer (Butcombe or Fullers London Pride if you like your ales) was top notch. But better than this, the welcome from all the staff was excellent. You really feel they want you to be there! Next time it’ll be full price ... but we’ll be back soon.

Covid 19 - protocols in place for the benefit of me the customer and the staff, we need to keep our locals open, - during lockdown I have missed the camaraderie of this pub, friends old and new/yet to meet. Staff are very attentive and clearly enjoy working here. The food is spot on, always comes out freshly cooked, piping hot and very tasty, if you need to add further condiments its never a bother for the staff.. The atmosphere here is always friendly amongst the staff and the punters and as a female would never feel afraid to arrive here alone - which I did incidentally last year during the bikers weekend and had never felt more welcome. Carverys on a Sunday - plentiful and tasty options, Bbqs on a bank holiday, live music (when covid restrictions do one) This Pub is owned by people of Nailsea that want to give back the local to the community and have done this in leaps and bounds. Thankyou for giving us a place - safe to return too, entertainment plenty - food tasty and plentiful.

Have been meaning to eat here since it was taken over last year. Today I finally got round to visiting for lunch & took advantage of their 2 for £10 offer that they are running through January. Was expecting small portions due to the offer but they were huge, the food was lovely & home cooked. The lady behind the bar was very attentive. She brought a high chair to our table for my little boy and also an activity sheet and crayons to keep him occupied.Will definitely be back again to support our local pub.

This has been my local for 25 years on and off. When Dave took over he seemed to be turning things around. However in the last year he seems to have taken his foot off the pedal. This pub used to be packed but recently it’s almost empty (other than Sunday lunchtimes). Such a shame as really can’t see this pub being in business next year. The wine they are serving is dreadful but charging premium prices.

I visited on 05/04/2018, with my husband and daughter. we waited an hour and a half for our food, and it was not worth the wait. I ordered griddled chicken with salad, my husband ordered fish and chips and my daughter ordered onion rings and chips. Firstly whilst waiting for our food to arrive there were friends of the kitchen staff who were walking into the kitchen and bringing food out and sitting and eating it. When the food finally arrived my chicken definitely wasn't griddled, it was hard and dry, my husbands fish and chips was also dry and overcooked, my daughters onion rings had hairs on them.

I've enjoyed the Sunday carvery several times over the past few months and it's always delicious, as it was again today. Great meat, selection of veg and gravy! However, I felt compelled to give a bit of feedback on my latest visit, as on arrival today there was no record of my booking. This is the second time in recent months that I have called the pub a week or so in advance and made a booking, only for it to have not been recorded and the staff having to scramble around to try to seat us. It makes for a stressful experience.

I was looking for something tasty to eat on Clevedon beach while waiting for my car to be serviced.
