The Bell Inn in North Warwickshire

Four of us went for a meal and despite there being very few people (could see a party of 4, and a few singular guests here and there) there was a "wait on food", which ended up meaning about half an hour for 2 starters and another half an hour for the 4 mains. Food was mostly good, although the steak/ale pie was not well enjoyed, there was slimy lettuce on one meal, and the chicken burger had a cheese square on instead of proper cheddar. At least it was fairly quiet and the staff were very pleasant, however I feel there are better places to eat.

Loved our last visit food 5 ***** Staff pleasant great atmosphere

If I could give 0 I would very rude and abrupt think this pub being in Coleshill is the reason they get away with being rude If in Birmingham areas of inner city they could never speak or would not dare to treat people how they do but remember not everyone is accepting of being treated like this !!!

Thankyou to all the staff at the Bell I had a family get together and the Bell was central to us all, they provided a wonderful afternoon tea for us, in a relaxed atmosphere with all the staff polite and efficient, will return in the future many thanks Jackie Hall (nee village) and family

This is a terrible place to eat or to have a drink I brought my hole family here for a family dinner on a Friday night and are drinks didn't come till an hour after we ordered them and they had to be sent back because they weren't what we ordered and are food didn't come to are table till an hour and a half after we ordered and all of are food was cold and the staff was very rude to us the hole time we was there it was shocking how they treated me and my family I will never be coming back to the bell inn as long as I live I do not recommend eating out here or even for a quick drink I am surprised they can even call it food the cook should be a shamed of it the food is not worth the plate it is on DO NOT COME TO THE BELL INN

I think the food wash incredibly delicious!The staff were lovey and the chef was funny 😂.It was great.

Brilliant atmosphere. Staff are friendly and the always up for a laugh. The Guiness is top notch and reasonably priced too. 10 out 10. I'll be back

Good atmosphere and decent Karaoke with Glen.

Even at lunchtime it's a great crowd.

Amazing place; great vibes, friendly staff and excellent drinks.

Lovely little pub, so many events on, it is clear to see the staff put a lot of effort into making this a fab community hub.

Visites here on bank holiday Monday i ordered the 8oz Rump steak medium rare, the steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection which was served with chip and onion rings they were also cooked to perfection nice & crispy and the chips were fluffy on the inside so complements to Alex the chef, everybody in there is friendly and there is always a warm welcoming atmosphere i Highly recommend you visit here, they also have entertaininment on many nights of the week this is also amazing

Excellent pub run by Kerry. Great atmosphere with good people.

I have attended the pub on a couple of occasions as. A face painter for their events. The events are always a good turn out and they seem to get a lot of regulars. Communication and organisation from Emma (event organiser) is always fab. Very quick to reply and organised. I'm unable to comment on food or service for the pub as I didn't experience these. The pub itself is very clean, really nice decor and toilets are really roomy and clean. Great for me who has to get changed into a costume! Thanks for having me.

Very nice place to enjoy yourself for the evening with the karaoke king Rio

I visited this pub on Saturday 17th August, and had the worst customer experience ever. Had brunch with a friend and ordered the 3 starters for £13. Been to different Greenekings venues over the years and aware of the normally high standards. However, this particular branch has let it down.  I ordered the roasted vegetable tacos and another 2 starters. However, when it came out, they weren't tacos, and there weren't any roasted vegetables in there.  I had 2 small tortilla wraps, inside was salad and slices of chilli's. No-one came to check up to see if everything was OK. Only when the plates were cleared away. I explained I wanted to return the dish, as wasn't happy, and have the breaded mushrooms instead. There was no apology or confirmation of the issue. The plates were cleared, and the lady walked off. The chef appeared afterwards with the mushrooms and started saying that he cooked the dish I received and there was roasted vegetable in there and he didn't understand my issue. It got quite heated, especially when I showed him the attached photo, the middle dish, and asked which part were the vegetables and where was the tacos. The chef then stormed off. I complained to the manager and again nothing. No apology or acknowledgement of wrongdoing. I was completely dumbfounded and left the establishment. I have never been spoken to so terribly as a customer and will not return to that branch again. Such a shame though, as a lovely location. I complained to Greeneking also, who advised me they are they a franchise. Therefore makes sense why their attitude isn't of a professional nature

Went the glow party kids enjoyed very much excellent night chef alex was amazing the food was excellent the manageress was lovely and has trained her staff well

I travel a lot and I was pleasantly surprised because I usually don't go to pubs but the service was top notch and felt very welcoming great choice of food and drinks I personally want to thank Emma as she was very lovely and an absolute sweetheart she was very attentive and kind I highly recommend giving this pub a go! Cheers!

We attended a family glow party this evening and ordered food while we were here, we haven’t had food here for a while now but it was 10/10! I ordered the hot honey burger and couldn’t have asked for better, definitely recommend 🤌🏻 my little girl really enjoyed herself at the party

Popped in for lunch, food was delicious, good price on food offer on children’s meals as it’s the holidays. Great customer service from Emma really helpful and friendly. Pub is well worth a visit.

Ordered an Eton Mess Sundae but there was no meringue in it at all!! Would not have ordered or paid 6.95 for a bowl of ice cream had I known. Mentioned it to the waitress who said she'd tell the kitchen. She never came back to us.

Thank you for a great afternoon and the food was lovley from all at the recycled teenagers gang we will be back x

Amazing Chicken Top Chef 👍🏾 Alex

Popped in for 13.30 and tried the mixed grill. The meat was all cooked perfectly.I ordered my steak rair, and it was beautifully pink in the middle. I have never had chicken on a mixed grill, so juicy and tender. £13.99 very reasonable price for the quality of food you receive. The service was on point too and a very clean and tidy premises. I will definitely visit again.

Had a lovely mixed grill here Alex the chef is oiy of this world steak is amazing 🥰

ordered a mixed grill here a few week ago and it was unreal. i believe the chefs name was alex and was very friendly. guy seems to know what he is doing. do not hesitate in coming here for food

Great pub with a good atmosphere. Food is also very nice. Alex is a top man bar man & chef 👌

Excellent service and fabulous food, we came in on Saturday for a meal and a drink, absolutely lovely service and quality! We have cone back today ( Monday) fit another meal! Excellent

Food was amazing the new chef Alex food was great he really brings life yo the bell

Good service, great food reasonably priced nice family atmosphere too. I would gladly eat here again and I would recommend for others

Bad place was served by one wonderful server called leah

Shocking bad staff served by one nice staff member called leah servise by her10outof10 would not come again smells like weed

Amazing meal, food was incredible, Maurice and Danny and staff was a good laugh and and very helpful

I go the bell all the time and it’s the best in Coleshill respectful and the staff are always friendly, you get a lot of different events every week

Been to bell few times, and different people in our company, said they have had issues with the older lady, possibly manager, so disrespectful last night for England game we had about 20 of us spending plenty of money and enjoying great facilities the bell has, but 3-4 of our friends where left waiting ignored by this lady, what a shame will definitely drink elsewhere from now on!!!

Worst bar staff in the world ever. I’ve worked away from home all my life and never ever experienced such rude bar staff I would never ever drink here again ever. The lady in question is horrible. 18 people out to watch sport and rude to everyone. So not just me. Horrible pub. Horrible staff

Joe and mandie made light work of three busy bat and the other staff. Brilliant service 5 stars!

Never again would I take my family here disgusting service very rude

Went here for a birthday, service and food was great. Staff were friendly and helpful.

What a shame, the food was really nice and not bad priced but the service I experienced was terrible, staff were rude and not serving the full meal that is stated on the menu

Haven't been here in years but decided to pop in, nice selection of drinks. The person that served us wasn't very friendly. I felt like an inconvenience asking for a drink. Other than that, it was quite busy with a good atmosphere. Only pizzas were being served in the pub, luckily they had a carribean pop up set up outside which was absolutely delicious. I would return again as I'd like to try the food they do themselves.

Local place with kind staff, I would say avrage food but what do you expect, and the aura sure was lovley.

Had a good Bank Holiday pint in the sun

Kelly and the team are so welcoming. The Bell is such a lovely and lively pub with a great atmosphere for families during the day with excellent entertainment at night for when you need some well deserved adult time!

Staff were good but the menu was very poor really not much to choose from so didn't eat

Maybe because I'm older but this was awful. Didn't feel safe in here and I was glad to get out in one piece. Beer served in plastic glasses. Won't be rushing back in any hurry. Changed so much from the old days.

Went to a function music wad excellent

Downside as you walked through the pub your shoes stick to the floor

I go in once a month, there's always sport on the TV with the occasional live music. Very spacious pub and disabled friendly

I came here with my family and we really enjoyed our lunch. I'm coeliac and the staff (Ann on the till and Alex the chef) couldn't do more to help me find a gluten free meal - such a friendly team, including our waitress Leah. Thank you, we'll definitely be back next time we're in the area!

Wicked place to be staff are lovely and kind always good vibes I came here to dj booked by Emma entertainment manager and events manager of Herz Events and we worked before so I always knew it'll be a good venue keep going guys

JOE, is the only reason I return every week. So welcoming, honestly makes my night so comfortable. Never fails to make me feel welcome

Day out.we were family of 5 adults just popped into this pub.we all had meal and desserts.two ofus had a 2/3 courses off senior menu.reasonable prices.friendly clean pub.meals were lovely welll presented.

Very good service. Staff are lovely :) Service was quick my breakfast was brilliant with crispy golden hashbrowns and brilliant bacon

The Vinyl Disco was good but there was a lot of mess on the empty tables & on the floor (crisp packets mainly but also a pizza box & empty glasses and straws etc). They were using plastic glasses from around 8:45pm onwards. There was a little girl aged about 10 playing the £100 jackpot fruit machine right opposite the bar (which I think is against the law really). There was a group of lads in caps and hoodies smoking vapes inside the pub about 10 feet from the front door where 2 bouncers were stood and could see this. Sorry Kelly & the team but you need to tighten up on your own policies here - this is not my kind of pub. Can't comment on the food as there wasn't any on offer (I think due to the Disco being on). Further Comment: The young girl was on the fruit machine around 8:20-8:30 check your CCTV. Your policy on Hoodies and Baseball caps and Vaping is in the toilet - if you can't enforce it why bother having a policy. The plastic glasses response is puzzling - do you expect trouble on a Saturday night then?

Previous visits the food and service have been great. This time it took 20 minutes to get a coffee and an hour to get our food. I had 3 goes at ordering-all out of stock! I had the Mac and cheese with bacon which tasted like it came out of a tin. My friend had the apparently award winning pie most of the meat was inedible. Very poor

Very nice little place to have something to eat and drink , mostly nice and quiet until weekends arrive

Service was excellent, the bartenders were great and friendly. The atmosphere was very good. The DJ kept the music pumping. There's abundant parking and a very large seating area outside. We didn't order any food so I can't say much about that

Visited for food with family, lovely environment friendly staff, good menu lovely food. Nothing too much trouble will return to look and some of the upcoming entertainment.

Myself and my partner came here last week for food and it delicious! I had the specials menu seabass risotto and my partner had the turkey and ham pie - absolutely beautiful! They have a nice selection on the menu and wide drinks selection. Food nice and hot and tasty! Staff were so pleasant and friendly. We noticed the entertainment on the board so planned to come out on the Saturday. We then Had a great night out Sat night - lovely friendly staff who worked really hard all night as it was very busy - A clean welcoming pub - Door staff were friendly and good so felt safe. Drink deals were fab too! Reggae night was really good Great entertainment Will definitely be back and would highly recommend ! Thank you

Very nice place good beer friendly bar staff will definitely be going back

have our Ex-Forces meetings here, amazing breakfasts and Brilliant Company

Returned again and happy with service :) friendly staff and great nights planned will enjoy coming back again this year for food and entertainment.

Called there last night for a change from the Hotel I am staying in. Shut .

Living local The Bell is the only pub I frequent. Kelly and the team work tirelessly and are always friendly. The pub has a great atmosphere with lovely decor. We often play pool or watch the football on various screens. The drinks are good- best pint of a Stella by a long shot. Kids meals excellent value. Various events disco nights, singers there is always something on. Events for the kids too Halloween, Christmas parties etc. As the title states The Bell really is a ‘proper pub’ just like they used to be 👍

Amazing activities for the children my son loves it parking is free & Pub food is lovely

Gaffer says "NO HATS ALLOWED" Avoid this place now.

The food was great, didn’t have to wait long for it to come . came for the hypnosis night and was a great night, really enjoyed being part of the show.

Work Xmas lunch out, lady behind bar was polite enough. Food service was atrociously slow for a weekday lunch and the food was not good. Others mentioned the lacking quality of the food. Manager attended table to query issues but didn't improve the experience

Great night had a good singer on

We went there on Saturday 2nd December 2023 after a long tiring day at MCM Comic-con at the NEC to have a late tea. l went in @18.30 ish to book a table for 20.15, but eventually turned up early at 19.30. We were given a table in the Snug as it was quite busy to say the least with a live band performing. We had a couple of drinks then placed an order for food about 20.00-20.15. after 40-45 minutes or so, l started making inquiries as to where was our food. A few minutes later the lovely young lady who took our food order came out and explained that the kitchen was actually closed when she took our order, but nobody had told her. Lots of apologies and an offer of a "free drink" AFTER my wife and daughter had gone back to the AirBnB to open a tin of beans to have on toast instead of the Mixed grills we had ordered. Yes it was busy. Yes it was the young lady's first night. No the training the new staff member had received it was not acceptable. All in all a VERY poor show.

It's a charming pub in Coleshill with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff is super friendly and the drinks are top-notch. They also have delicious pub food that's perfect for a cozy night out. I highly recommend giving it a try! 🍻🍔👌

Cleared our drinks away full new double vodka and diet coke,not happy

The staff is incredibly friendly and always go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. They have an impressive selection of drinks, including a wide range of beers, wines, and cocktails. And the food? Oh my goodness, it's mouthwatering! From classic pub favorites to tasty pizzas, they have something for everyone. The bell is the perfect place to relax, enjoy great company, and have a fantastic time. I highly recommend it!

The moment you step inside, you'll be greeted with a warm and cozy atmosphere. The staff is super friendly and always ready to serve you with a smile. They have a great selection of drinks, including both classic favorites and some unusual cocktails. And let's not forget about the food - their pub grub is absolutely delicious! Whether you're looking for a fun night out or a relaxing spot to unwind, this pub is the perfect spot.

Thank you for another wonderful night with great vibes the staff was amazing while it been busy night can’t wait for another night xx

Brilliant atmosphere, the staff are amazing. The entertainment is amazing on a Friday/Sat. Staff are polite and very helpful

Lovely atmosphere and excellent customer service. Clean and friendly pub - great entertainment and security. Would definitely attend again and looking forward to future nights and events.

Expensive not so friendly atmosphere

Mix grill was one of the best I've had in ages. Great, warm relaxed pub.

Relaxed atmosphere poilte staff enjoyed the evening, food was quick, but cooked as specified, will return

Lovely atmosphere friendly people friendly staff, one of the best pub I’ve visited in ages

An amazing evening, we have just found our new local:.. amazing staff, good security See you next week

Great time here at The Bell, Kelly and the team couldn't be more helpful. The food was amazing! I would highly recommend Gammon & Egg. Delicious! Thank you, We will be back!

What a lovely place to attend, had Gammon & Egg and this was delicious. Kelly and her team were very welcoming and courteous! Will be returning for sure! See you soon!!!

Had a great experience, didn’t wait long for food, food was hot and tasty, prices good. Best chips I’ve ever had. Thank you xx

Food is terrible wrong food served and when spoken to the waitress she took it back anthem came back saying that’s what I ordered (felt sorry for her position)I know what I ordered and it wasn’t that,the quality of the food is horrendous,beer is nice n cold tho

Massive thankyou to all the staff for being very helpful and acomadatimg. This was Chelmunds carehome first pub outing. They enjoyed every minute of it. Sending a huge thank you to you all. 👏👏👏

What a rip off £10.00 for a salad limp lettuce no bread or extras, desert £6.25 for the smallest honeycomb and 1 scoop of ice cream, they need to revise the menu or give better portions not impressed, won't be eating here again

Honestly this is the lowest quality pub food I've had in a long time. We were passing and stopped for a quick snack on a quiet weekday lunchtime, and ended up having small plates because the main menu was not being served. We waited 50 mins for cheesy garlic bread that was hard and swimming in oil, some very greasy breaded mushrooms, and chicken strips that were more breadcrumbs than chicken. Never ones to cause a fuss, we ate it and left, but in hindsight we probably should have sent it back and asked for a refund. I'd actually be happier if places like this didn't do food at all. Just serve beer and bar snacks rather than serving this rubbish? I'd have been quite happy with a crusty cheese cob and some crisps. It's quite obviously the cheapest possible food they can source, it is genuinely awful tasteless stuff, but the menu isn't so cheap to reflect this. The Bell could and should be a nice dining option in the historic market town of Coleshill, but I cannot recommend the food at all based on today's experience. Plus points? Well the pub has recently been renovated and is very nice inside, and the drinks selection is decent. Just don't eat here!

A good place for a beer, service good, clean and modern place.

always a great atmosphere, great staff, the best entertainment and the manager is amazing 😍

Friendly and helpful staff, lovely food which is reasonably priced for a family meal. Will visit again.

I came to the Bell Inn a year ago and the food wasn’t the best however me and my family have been coming back for the past few weeks and since it has been through new management. It is now absolutely lovely and I 100% recommend!! The change in management really shows within the service

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere

Food was lovely and service was friendly

Nice atmosphere of a quiet little pub. Only nice thing I can say unfortunately. Me and my husband decided to treat ourselves plus our child. After waiting 40 minutes, we asked how long roughly it’d be coming out. To be met with a response of “well we have had a big order”. Not really an answer in my eyes and didn’t even check or anything. We proceeded to wait even longer and after an hour, myself and my daughter got our food. Daughters tasted dreadful with barely cooked chips. Where was my husbands? So after we ate and had one bite left. The third and final plate gets brought out with a “sorry for the wait”. We had to send it back due to other meals being eaten already and an infant getting restless. They didn’t even seem apologetic or arsed what we were saying acting like it was normal for them. Safe to say. We will not be returning.

Terrible service, rude staff. waited an hour for food when the place was empty for only 2 out of 3 meals to be brought out. Everyone had finished eating before the final meal arrived. We was refunded for the food that didn’t arrive. The food that did come looked and tasted like it had been reheated.
