The bell is the most perfect place to visit,every thing is just right. We called Saturday mid day,the man in the bar area was so polite and happy,all the staff were the same,we sat in the lovely garden,will go back again ,first class drinks,staff,food etc,perfect

Found this pub after a search for Sunday evening opening and vegan options. We were not disappointed. The whole family enjoyed the food. My grandchildren enjoyed the play area which kept them busy while the food was prepared. The portions are very generous and was lovely and hot. We are going back this evening taking another family member.

Food was OK, served by nice young lady and was delivered promptly, when it came to our mains sadly a sea of mushroom sauce over the stuffed chicken and served on my pet hate A COLD PLATE this causing the sauce to go cold very quickly, I did mention this and was told the chef would informed but no other response from the kitchen, sadly won't be returning when charged £10;50 for large glass of rose wine,we were planning to bring a large family gathering here but not now when there are other places doing better meals and drinking for less

Great food , service superb and at a reasonable price , will definitely be back. We all had the Sunday roast with exception of two friends who had the nut roast

Popped in when we were staying at a nearby caravan site in Lacock. Brilliant freehouse with a great choice of beers on tap which are regularly changing. Five points Railway Porter not to be missed. Sticky toffee pudding was a hit with Mrs F too. Shame we couldn't have stayed for Sunday roast which looked really good but we only called in for a drink!. If you're in the area make sure you visit. It beats the other pubs in Lacock hands down.

We visited the restaurant for lunch and found all of the team very welcoming and friendly, giving us time to decide on our menu choices. All the food came out very promptly and all 4 of us were very pleased with our choices. It was all delicious, and the portions were all generous sizes. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and will hopefully be heading back again soon. There was nothing to fault!

What a lovely Inn. We turned up and asked for a table, which they had in an alcove conservatory room. The menu was lovely, really good choice, service fast and professional, very friendly staff. Really enjoyed and would go again if in the area.

Sunday lunch during a trip to Lacock Abbey. We both had roast beef, which was delicious. The staff were lovely and super friendly, service was efficient and attentive. No complaints at all. Would recommend highly.

After receiving terrible service from The Red Lion in Lacock we left and came to eat at The Bell instead. The experience could not have been more different. We were greeted warmly, seated quickly and the service was excellent. The portions were generous and my husband declared the chicken and stuffing pie as one of the best pies he had ever had. I had the small portion of the casserole of the day which was Minted Lamb. Served with mash potato and lots of fresh vegetables it was plenty big enough. This is how all pubs should be.

The pie is superb. No one would complain about the portions! I couldn't finish mine. Staff excellent, beer delicious , just great. Well worth walking out of Lacock to enjoy.

Picked here to have Sunday lunch, we booked and were in "the Barn" which was fine. The biggest problem was that we were sat on the first table, and for some reason people have lost their ability to close the door so even though there was a wood burner it was cold at times. The food was alright beek and pork was the roast unfortunately both meat I don't like, I had scampi which was quite big. The staff were friendly and helpful, you might get distracted by their walkie talkies when ordering and a message comes out of nowhere. Certainly is a busy place so must be a popular pub

Hi.. Just felt the need to pass on how much my family and I enjoyed our time there last evening (16th March.. booked by Mandy Chapman)). The atmosphere was pleasant, even with the party enjoying a party. The food was just lovely and hats off to the waiting staff who remained smiling , friendly and helpful. They managed to be on hand but never intrusive.. despite the work rate. We shall certainly visit again.. and please pass on our thanks from grateful, happy diners. Mr. B Mills

My favourite local for Sunday roast. Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful. On nice days can eat in the garden which has lots of seating. Highly recommended.

Very lovely helpful waitress every one ridding about ( very drafty ) from where we were sat still the service was good. Ordering was simple and staff courteous. The Sunday Roast Beef Good my own could be improved Roast Potatoes Soggie the Yorkshire Pudding same the Veg Blanched under cooked a potato brick h as vvard as the carrot greens accepted heavy good but no extra. Horse Radish sauce had to be asked for. Something really wrong on the here it should be better. The second course Cheese Cake was soft crust soggy the flavour good much effort seemed to be put into keeping everyone happy speed of the waitress about was alarming noting no heating on there. Doubtful if they relevant notice of this. Needs Improving urgently. Beer Very Good.

I can't believe I've never eaten here before! What a hidden gem. A group of us recently had our pre-Christmas meal here, and we had a delightful night. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. Service was cheerful, professional and efficient. I'd particularly like to mention Tamara who dealt with emails about special dietary requirements quickly and with great care. Will definitely be back soon! Thank you for an excellent evening.

Six of us have been meeting up for a Christmas Lunch since the mid 1970's, and this time we booked for our Christmas Lunch at The Bell. My wife and I had eaten at the Bell before and enjoyed it, but this was a first time for the other four. We had warm welcome on arrival and were shown to our table, and drinks orders taken. Our meals had all been pre-ordered so the starters arrived within 10 minutes of the drinks. The starters were excellent and different to are offered at many other places. When the mains arrived the portions of Blade of Beef, or Turkey were really generous , but what a surprise when the vegetables arrived! There was a wide selection and a very generous amount all in a large serving bowl, and all were nicely cooked. Needless to say the Christmas pud went down a treat too. The service was friendly, and not intrusive, and overall we enjoyed our seasonal get together. We all agreed that after so many Christmas lunches over the years this one at The Bell was the best.

We have recently had a family Sunday lunch here. The table for us was based in the Barn area which is not in the pub but a rustic building in the garden area. The are is very spacious and you get a feeling of that space as the tables are well placed apart. There was 2 woodburners on to keep folks warm which worked well but there was quite a strong odour of smoke in there most of the time. It can make your eyes a little watery. There is a sliding door to enter, but as toilets, kitchen, and bar are in the pub the door is constantly opening and closing and a blast of cold air enters each time. Often the door stays open. The food was very nice and there is plenty of fresh veg offered with the Sunday lunch. You get a decent amount of meat and 3 small roast potatoes and with the veg you won't leave hungry. The only thing I would mention is all the meat slices on all the plates were the same size thickness etc showing it is a sliced meat product, not fresh joints. I am not sure how this works but it is tasty and the gravy is lovely and plentiful. However it's always nice really to see freshly sliced joint meat. The service was excellent, and the timescales spot on. Drinks were very competitively priced with local ale £4.30 a pint. Roast lunch £13.50 small£16.50 large. The desserts looked lovely and all said they tasted so. We were very happy and will probably return but would love to see chef sliced meat from joints.🙂

We came here for Sunday evening dinner. It is a really nice pub and staff are very friendly. We were hoping to have Sunday roast but unfortunately they stopped serving that at lunch time. Which was a little disappointing so we went for Ham, Egg and Chips instead. The food was really nice and would definitely come back. I thought it was a little on the expensive side but the portion sizes made up for that. Massive portions and food was lovely. Staff were friendly. Just a bit disappointed at the menu and lack of Sunday roast.

Lovely pub and garden. Great food and service. Especially like the 'smaller appetite' option as that left room for a luscious dessert. I will definitely be eating here again

Went as a large group (of near on 40) for a Sunday lunch, the food was amazing and plenty of it, the service was superb, served the children's meals first which was fab, the staff were great, friendly and happy. A beautiful and welcoming place.

Excellent lunch in a traditional pub. Friendly service. Good choice of dishes including daily pie and casserole specials. Large portions. Selection of local real ales.

We went as a large group of 30 so booked and pre-ordered food, there was a great selected on the pre-order menu, great communication and clear and fair prices. The food all came out together, piping hot and the portion sizes meant no one left hungry! Staff were friendly and helpful and we all had a fantastic evening sat in their outdoor barn/bar area In summary; delicious food, friendly staff and great communication Would highly recommend!

24 of us were booked in for a meal to celebrate a joint 60th birthday last night. The meal and the service was EXCELLENT. The food was served hot and tasted amazing. THANK YOU SO MUCH to all who served us and helped make our evening a memorable one 😊

We went on a trip with residents from Middlefield’s house in Chippenham. And what a wonderful day we had, great staff amazing food. Great price too. Thank you

We visited The Bell at the weekend for our friends' Wedding reception. The pub is set in a beautiful village with a large car park. It is very Covid safe with plenty of hand sanitiser, a one-way system and a gorgeous new undercover/open air area outside with a bar. The pub is family friendly with a large garden and childrens play area. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. For any gin lovers out there, there's a good variety to choose from and a good range of non-alcoholic drinks. The food was lovely, I had the rump steak which was a good size and very tasty. My husband Kris had the fish and chips which were amazing and served with tartar sauce which was the best we'd ever tasted! The chips are a must, they were fantastic! For dessert I had Raspberry Merigues which was served in a sundae glass with ice cream on top, it was gorgeous! Kris had the White Chocolate and Raspberry Cheesecake, now he's an expert when it comes to cheesecakes and he thought it was really good. The portion sizes were good and teas and coffees were ordered afterwards.Many thanks to you all for helping to make our friends' day so special. We will definitely be visiting again when we're in the area. Thank you!

We visited this evening as part of a wedding party, we were surprised that we were unable to enter the private party that we were part of directly from the carpark, instead we had to walk a fair distance from the overflow carpark to the front of the pub and walk through the pub itself to join the rest of the party which was virtually back in the overflow carpark!The staff were very friendly but seemed either short staffed or very disorganised, it took 45 minutes to get our drinks even though we had asked several times.When food started arriving again it was very slow and disjointed, various dishes were going to tables over a 15 minute period so some people sat at their tables had no food whilst the rest of their tables food was getting cold.The food was not good, the lasagne was dry and over cooked, it looked like it had been under a hot plate keeping hot for about an hour just drying out, it was completely unseasoned (no waitress offered any seasonings and there was none on any tables and no staff to ask), there was hardly any meat in the lasagne just a heavy pile of lasagne sheets, covered in a small amount of béchamel sauce and a dried out layer of cheese, very disappointing as it was inedible, every portion that was served was exactly the same. My partner had a steak and said it was not good either. The chips were however very nice!The desserts were very disappointing, I had the white chocolate cheesecake which did not taste of white chocolate or even vanilla, just a completely plain cheesecake with 4 small raspberries and a very small amount of raspberry sauce again very poor. The dessert portions were not generous, the apple pie and cheesecake portions were tiny but the ice cream desserts seemed far more generous.First experience in this pub was sadly disappointing considering other reviews and the first time I have been out for a meal in 18 months.

We recently visited The Bell for dinner and drinks and had a pleasant evening. We sat in the outside covered area which has been tastefully coverted to an open barn style premise from the marquee canopy from last year.As always, I had the Pork Medallions ( £16.95 ) which again were fabulous and had a pint of Beck Vier ( £4.50 ) to wash it down with. Mrs FB2000 wasn’t too hungry so had the small portion of Scampi ( £9.95 ) and a Hendriks Gin and Tonic ( £6.30 ).The service from all the staff was first class.

We visited on Saturday evening as a party of 4 for a birthday celebration. The service was excellent when we arrived, and we were shown to our table & our drink and food orders were taken promptly.The menu had a wide variety of dishes on offer, and the food we chose was excellent....the desserts were especially fantastic!The only thing that we were disappointed in was the lack of service. We waited a long time after our dinner plates were cleared before we were offered the dessert menu. Also, at no point were we asked if we would like any more drinks. It was table service only, so it would have been nice if the waitress had returned to check if we needed anything.

Great friendly pub. Lovely staff especially tony and Tamara. Helpful and welcoming. We will 100% be back. The outside area is particularly lovely.

We had spent time walking around Lacock & Reybridge, arrived at what we thought may be outside normal dining times to a warm welcome, had our puppy with us that could have been a problem at some pubs, sanitiser dispensers plentiful and easily visible making us feel covid secure, food arrived promptly and was delicious,staff very friendly, definitely will return soon.....

We booked a table for lunch today and on arrival we were pleasantly surprised to see the newly constructed Barn where the old maquis once stood. Once again a great effort and investment for this lovely pub run by sincere people who go out of their way to ensure your visit is memorable. As always the food and drink was top quality and we would recommend this establishment to all. Keep up the good work and see you again soon. Geoff & Lynn

We visited on a Monday lunchtime and were warmly greeted by exceptionally friendly staff. It is difficult to fault our experience of a traditional pub meal. I had blade of beef and horseradish mashed potato with vegetables. It was a good sized portion with plenty of sauce/gravy. Faultless. I love a gastro pub but this was a reminder of how wonderful that simple/unfussy British cooking can be. The venue has invested in an attractive outside wooden (heated) area which is perfect for the current restrictions on indoor dining. It was a welcome improvement on all the flappy canvas marquees that have sprung up! The toffee ice cream and meringue was pretty good too....

Enjoyed a delicious lunch in garden after a lovely walk around Lacock in the morning. My rump steak was cooked to perfection and melt in the mouth. My friend enjoyed the cheese crusted cod and choc orange sponge. White choc and raspberry cheesecake was lovely but a little big on the portion size for me. Service was friendly and efficient. I would certainly recommend and return if visiting area again.

Good grub. Pie had lots of meat. Good portion sizes and tasty. Staff were friendly. Would have had a festive menu if they did it :)

we went here for a Sunday roast whilst staying local, what a treat,The food was fantastic and service excellent, we will definitely return when in the areaI would say one of the best Sunday Roasts i have ever had.Very much COVID safe throughout also

This is just outside the village up Bowden Hill. The food comes in great quantity which meant we did not have room for a pudding. The Covid-19 arrangements are good and the service and attentiveness of the staff is excellent. The food did not quite match our expectations but there is plenty of it! I imagine this would be a great place to stop in the summer using the garden.

We were made to feel very welcome as we entered the pub with a smile,Had a superb lunch meal with good beer and a flavourd cider, enjoyed so much and as we were caravaning localy we had to return the folowing day for more enjoyment.

The Bell - I just love this place! Since the pub has reopened since lockdown I have visited twice, once for lunch and once for dinner. Both times were faultless! From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted like an old friend and made to feel so welcome! The staff are wonderful! The baguettes we has for lunch were incredible, so much brie! The chips are always insane here as well!! We sat in the marquee and it was lovely. For dinner we ate inside and the food was unreal! Try the triple chocolate cheesecake - you will not regret it!!All of the restrictions with Covid are followed, even cutlery comes in its own little pouch with your napkin to avoid multiple people touching it! Keep up the good work!!

Went here for a meal with my wife on Saturday night last week - our first ever visit... , 10oz Sirloin Steak (Rare)was superb , my wife (who is gluten free (good GF menu))had Salmon - biggest piece of Salmon I have ever seen served up.Staff really good and attentive (All wearing masks)Lovely meal , lovely setting - Good Wholesome English food , Definitely will go back.

Final day of eat out scheme and food was of a very good standard. The highlight was the friendly and professional service offered by all staff members. The Covid precautions were also handled very well.

Went there on an 'Eat Out to Help Out' meal. Lovely friendly service, really good menu and very tasty food. All Covid precautions taken. I've recommended The Bell to many people since and hope to return.

Went on the 'Help out Scheme' . Food was excellent, absolutely top notch. Portions generous, staff friendly, polite and efficient. We have been several times before and we are never disappointed.

We booked a table for Sat evening in the restaurant. We were warmly greeted when we arrived and asked if, because of the weather, we wanted to change our table to the outside marquee. We declined but it was great to be given the choice. The staff were friendly and attentive throughout, even when we asked for slight changes to the menu (black pepper sauce with the chicken instead of mushroom). The food was as delicious as ever! This was our first meal out after lockdown and we had certainly chosen wisely. We would not hesitate to recommend The Bell, where you are treated as an individual rather than just a number to be catered for. It was just the tonic we needed and we can't thank them enough!

Had a lovely meal at The Bell. Two fillet steaks with fresh vegetables, with £10 off each, courtesy of the ‘Eat out to help out’ scheme. Beautifully cooked and very safe environment.

We just stopped for a drink (having planned to go somewhere else, but noticed the pub had re-opened) and were very welcomed by the landlord and his staff all with a big smile and very relaxed and friendly manner. The protective measures in place were very clear and well thought out. Definitely felt like a lot of care and thought had gone into it. Thank you!We were quickly served (good cider and west country beer) and though we hadn't booked, were able to eat with no problem, despite the fact they were clearly very busy. Very accommodating and easy-going!Good pub food, very generous portions and all in all excellent value for money.We will definitely go back there again, particularly for the consistently friendly atmosphere, which starts with the landlord and his cheery crew!

We were welcomed by a very friendly barman who served our drinks and told us to sit anywhere we liked. He came with the menus 10 seconds later and we were spoilt for choice. The main menu was fantastic and there was also a specials menu. My husband settled for pie of the day and I had the lamb casserole, which came with vegetables and a jacket potato. Other choices of potato were available. Also salad. The pie was a proper pie, encased in pastry, not a microwaved one with a floating lid! The lamb came in a large bowl and was delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. The meals were a little pricier than in other pubs, but you certainly get what you pay for. We shall return!

My husband and I had a catch up with some friends who I had never met and my husband hadn’t seen for 36 years so it was important that we chose the right venue. The Bell didn’t disappoint. The food was excellent as was the service

Had a family lunch here after visiting Lacock. The pub was very busy but staff found us a table. Three of us had salads, crispy seafoom, ham and chicken and bacon. My daughter opted for the fish and chips. We enjoyed the food which was plentiful. We opted for sundaes for pudding, the raspberry and a chocolate brownie sundae. These were disappointing. Very basic layers of cheap tasting ice cream, a small amount of crushed meringue and an extreamely sour raspberry puree. We didn't feel these matched the price charged.

Would highly recommend a visit to The Bell we spent a lovely Saturday evening there. Food is high quality home cooking with something on the menu for everyone.

Stayed in the village and took advantage of some good pubs..... had a splendid meal in The Bell.... holiday time and daytime was a bit hectic but slower and pleasanter in the evening. Excellent British pub menu with some nice touches, a friendly landlord and attentive staff.

Very welcoming and great food. Our little grandson loved it and very child friendly so we all had a good time. Will definitely go back.

We've been visiting The Bell on and off for years and it remains a family favourite for eating out. When we needed somewhere for our annual Christmas gathering for friends and family, the staff were superb at accommodating our needs. The Christmas menu choices were varied and ranged between the standard and adventurous. The price was also competitive (2 courses for £20.50, 3 courses for £25.50).The quality of the food was exceptional. Given there were 19 of us the kitchen staff did a tremendous job of catering for the varying needs and food was piping hot. The dauphinoise potatoes are something else... We really could not fault the service and friendliness of the staff. The pub has a great atmosphere anyway, but it felt extra special for our Christmas celebrations... and for the beer/cider drinkers, there's always a great range to choose from. Superb...

We live about 45 minutes drive from Lacock but we visit several times a year. It is a good excuse to visit The Bell for a pub lunch. The menu suits every taste. The speed from ordering to receiving the food, even when the pub is busy, is impressive. They seem to have a well organised kitchen. The staff have always been friendly and cheerful and the whole atmosphere is great. The food we have ordered has been in good sized portions and has been excellent in quality and presentation. The real ale never falters from its high standards. Overall an excellent pub. Well done.

We enjoyed most of our meal. My wife found her pie of the day rather salty. The red wine (a Malbec and a Merlot) Was poor quality for the price.

Having booked at The Rising Sun only to find it had closed, the six of us ventured down the hill to The Bell. Yes they could accommodate us (although they were certainly busy) and were we not the lucky ones ? The staff were most accommodating and friendly, the service was very good and the food excellent. The starters were of a good size and the roast dinners were plentiful with an excellent selection of vegetables served separately. One of us chose the seafood salad which even taking into account her small appetite, was enormous. We will certainly return especially as they said that next time they would do a smaller seafood salad.

Went for our anniversary had a lovely evening food was good as always had a really good time staff are always friendly and make you feel very welcome

Called in on a Friday evening, Staff were very friendly & welcoming. Good selection of beer and food choices. Service was great and our meals were excellent. Have been a few times, quality & service are always consistent.

We have been here many a time for a drink of their good selection of Cask Ale or real cider. This is the current CAMRA local branch pub of the year and always has a good selection of cask ales and uses lined glasses.The staff are always very welcoming and helpful and we have always promised ourselves that we must try eating here. This month on the occasion of our wedding anniversary we did just that and were certainly not disappointed. The starters and main courses were good sized portions and came out piping hot. All of the food was very tasty and the whole

We took a group of 32 people to The Bell and everyone was full of praise for their meals. The steaks were done to each individuals liking and the food was brought out quickly and it was hot and very tasty. There was plenty of choice on the menu for starters mains and sweets.

We visited here today to celebrate our wedding anniversary, have promised ourselves we would eat here since moving to the area 3 years ago and so glad we did.

From booking the table a month before to sitting down and enjoying our meal with 12 family members can't be faulted, we pre ordered our meal and everything was hot fresh and not rushed, fab staff and fab food. Definitely a place to enjoy a family celebration

We were staying within walking distance of the Bell Inn. I would highly recommend a visit. The menu is well above the standard of "pub grub". We spent a very nice couple of hours there. Had two pints of the local Wadworth IPA. Fab

Fresh food tasty and well presented. Quick friendly service. Smoked salmon and prawn salad was first rate.

Very busy but food and service was excellent. Very nice beer garden with decent furniture not delapidated benches like some places.

Fantastic Sunday roast was perfect lovely food good quality and quantity plenty of veg followed by a really good choice of pudding yum 😋 will definitely be going back again soon. Staff very efficient and helpful which was also a bonus

We try and visit The Bell regularly. We always receive great service and the food is excellent value. It is one of our favourites for sure.

Good grub served by staff, worth a visit if you are in the area. Barman in particular provided excellent customer service.

I had the chicken stuffed with bacon and brie. It came out very fast which was suspicious to start with. The chicken was obviously over cooked being tough and dry. The majority of the "stuffed brie" had fallen out over the plate, topped with a single rash of bacon. I would have sent it back if my table had been checked on at all to see how out food was. When my table had finished eating their food (which they weren't too keen on themselves) the waitresses cleared our table. They asked how my meal was and I said "It was overcooked and horrible" but they simply ignored my comment and carried on cleaning the table. I was expecting to at least talk to someone about my comment which I made to the waitress yet it went completely un-noticed! I paid the full price of £15.

Visited as part of a large group of mixed ages to celebrate a 90th birthday.

I saw this place online and so glad we stopped by. We immediately liked the landlord who had a great sense of humour (I guess that is a necessity in his line of business). We chose from the Veggie menu both courses were nicely prepared with pride and delicious too. Would certainly recommend. A big thank you to the team who looked after us!

This was my first visit to The Bell. We sat outside and had dinner and a couple of drinks.

Disappointing visit, main upset was rudeness of mature male staff member. informed him unhappy with duck pancakes, very small with only a little duck in 3, one just pancake(Iceland frozen quality at best). He said he could get another pancake, not not ideal at the end of a course and informed us it was a popular starter with no previous issues. When our mains were collected, 2 adequate quality, blade of beef usual exceptional standard, he rudely said were the mains big enough for us. A dessert was planned but felt the whole experience needed a quick finish. No hurry to return, however the man with beard & lady I paid were very polite & friendly...

Great lunch and varied menu .Friendly efficient staff .I had a salad of smoked salmon ,crayfish and prawns served with orange , lemon, apple and strawberries which was delicious and a very generous serving. My only criticism would be that the rocket and lettuce was too plentiful. Will come here again.

Although we had booked a table we decided to sit outside as the weather was so nice. It was very busy and took quite a while to be served with drinks as there were only 2 people serving.

Brilliant staff - polite, helpful, friendly . . . Brilliant food, piping hot roast and plenty of it, on hot plates, served reasonably quickly and with a smile. There is a marquee, sides rolled up in the garden, so you are sheltered but you can still enjoy outdoor eating, with comfy chairs if you don’t want to be inside on a nice day . . . And a decent sized car park. Perfect. And at a reasonable price. We will be back.

Joined the queue, however, when it was our turn the manager told the barman to serve someone else. The manager then served the person behind us. Could it be that as we were women were invisible. I had the small cod and chips which was a reasonable sized portion. Would have liked to have had some of the grease wiped off the plate before serving. Have not been there before not in a hurry to go back.

Driving down Bowden Hill and feeling rather peckish I suddenly remembered that The Bell had advertised on social media that they were now serving brunches. I hadn’t been in the pub for several years but thought I would give it a try. I arrived past the end of service (my fault) but was immediately made to feel very welcome. As they hadn’t started lunches the chef agreed to cook me a brunch. I only ordered the small English and was very glad I did. A steaming plate of egg, bacon, sausage, beans, fresh tomato and mushrooms along with a lovely thick slice of toast was put in front of me. All really good quality ingredients. It was the best cooked breakfast I’d had in a very long while; all cooked perfectly and tasting delicious.

Ive been twice here in the last 2 weeks. The first meal was a mixed grill. It had quite a small steak, but it was a lovely meal and the night went fine. The second visit was over lunchtime, which offers the same menu. I ordered battered fish and chips, you cant go wrong. Especially when they have fresh daily delivery of fish, apparently.

Called in for lunch on spec and found only a few tables in use so no problem being seated. The barman was very pleasant and allowed me to try a couple of beers before settling on GWB’s in house bitter Beau Bell. Worth a visit to try this alone.

We have stayed in Lacock many times and walked up past The Bell and popped in for a couple of beers quite often.

Lovely place, friendly staff and great beer. Recommend the beer tapas! Sadly didn’t try the food but definitely will when we return.

Only had room for a light lunch, but it was delicious! Will be beck for the ploughman’s which came past! The mushroom soup was very tasty and the mushrooms with pancetta was lovely

We stopped here for a light lunch. A great selection of local beers and ciders. Having poured my pint, a few minutes later the landlord, unrequested, brought me a second one as "the first one was at the end of the barrel and I wanted to make sure it was OK". We shared a sandwich; more than adequate. The cranberry source on the brie looked home-made. Staff were really helpful. A simply delightful pub, and well worth the short 1km walk from the National Trust car park in Lacock, where the pubs are starting to rest on their laurels.

I arranged a surprise 80th Birthday lunch for my partner to take place on Bank Holiday Monday 6th May 2019 for 12 people. I booked the conservatory for this very special occasion.

I had a really sumptous mixed grill, the best I have ever tasted and the accompanying dark beer was nirvana itself. My wife had the small chicken and leek pie which she loved. However my daughter's partner had the end of a pie with too much pastry which he did not eat. My daughter did not like the pork's sauce but liked the pork.

Small adult ham (3) egg (1)small bowl of chips (20) £8.50. Standard ham nothing special The pub did have 4 ales and unusually Lowenbrau Pils on draft.

My partner and I had a lovely meal here, one beef and ale pie and a salad with prawns, crayfish and smoked salmon

I recently visited the Bell for the first time - my wife had previously visited on a number of occasions as she is a 'Lady what Lunches' with her friends. Having raved about it I was looking forward to our visit but after the glowing reviews I did have the feeling I would be a little disappointed. However, I can honestly say it exceeded all expectations (as high as they were).

we were lucky enough to win a voucher for a meal for 4 after completing the recent car treasure hunt, so we booked for tonight and were certainly not disappointed, we ordered a mixed grill, fish and chips, cod in cheese sauce, and a crispy seafood salad, every single thing was delightful, with a choice of veg, chips, new potatoes, all freshly cooked to perfection, we even managed to squeeze in some pudding, and a bottle of wine between us. so thank you to the Bell Inn for the prize, look out for details of the next car treasure hunt sometime next year, you could also enjoy the delights of the cuisine. lovely atmosphere, great staff and service even though it was busy with a couple of big tables booked in. we will be back very soon.

Could easily add this to my list of local places to eat. Service was good, polite and friendly. Food served freshly cooked and in good quantities. Steaks very tasty and melted in the mouth. Beef lasagne was nice. Great choice of desserts too. Will be back sooner rather than later.

A good spot with plenty of parking, good selection of beer and family friendly. Don’t expect haute cuisine though!

I hadn't been to the Bell in a few years, but the sunlight dragged me out of a winters hibernation at the weekend and I ended up having a fantastic roast lamb dinner and pint of ale in their very well kept beer garden! The barman was pleasant and the staff were excellent. I will certainly be returning in the future! Cheers!

We’ve eaten here several times and enjoyed it but on our recent visit for a late Sunday lunch we were disappointed. We shared the calamari starter but five battered calamari rings that were tasteless (and possibly frozen) was not a good start – there was no lemon and when we asked for some were given a couple of slices – not wedges - which clearly should have been in a soft drink. Husband had the pie of the week – minced beef and horseradish (left-over roast beef?), frozen peas and frozen chips £13.95 – overpriced for what it was. Lasagne was ok but lacking in seasoning. The friendly landlord was missing from behind the bar and this was noticeable. Think it will be a while before we visit again.

Greeted with a smile and a friendly greeting. Excellent start and the lunch time visit just got better and better, beer clear tasty looked like a good variety of different brews either on offer or coming so worth returning just for those. Food was fantastic, nothing to complain about at all. A very pleasant meal in nice surroundings and wonderful staff. Thank you all

At last. A pub that’s not trying to be something it’s not. Had a family meal here on Saturday. Very friendly staff and excellent service despite being incredibly busy. Food is classic pub grub. Plenty of choice including changing specials. We all really enjoyed our food. Good value wines too. We had not been here before because the outside is not particularly attractive as you drive into Lacock but don’t let this put you off. Well worth eating here and the many great reviews are deserved. We will definitely be back.

Whenever we eat here it is always exceptional. The menu is always good as with the children's menu, a few times they have happily adapted things from the adult menu for a child.

Our classic car club met here for lunch in the first weekend of January and we had a very warm welcome, the food and service was fine lots of space outside for our vintage car club and regular diners to park too. Lacock is a lovely destination for a group meal and a walk afterwards. Thank you and see you next time.

Visited here just before Christmas with my partner and our two six year old nieces. I cannot fault the staff here at all. They were incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food though was disappointing considering the price.

We called in for a few drinks in the period between Christmas and new year one evening to this pleasant country pub to find a welcoming atmosphere .We walked to the bar and the barman made us welcome asking us to try a beer before buying after recommending what he felt most suited our requirements.The range of beers etc was good and his recommendations proved just right.we enjoyed a second round of drums before leaving at the same time as a small group celebrating a 60th birthday who also seemed well pleased. We made a note to call in again soon!

Digo "sorprendentemente" ya que esperábamos mejor haber tenido un almuerzo de domingo razonable aquí en el verano. Con cinco entrantes, seis platos principales y tres pudines, habríamos pensado que al menos uno de los platos llegaría al lugar, pero había una variedad de cocción excesiva (p. Ej., Con algo de carne, champiñones, col), suavidad (p. Ej., Con las papas fritas). y champiñones con ajo) y / o falta de sabor / picante / picante (por ejemplo, con el curry de verduras). En general, las ofertas muy pobres en comparación con lo que se puede tener en muchos restaurantes / gastropubs locales en estos días.
