The Bell Tree in Dundee City

The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Great food and would recommend this place.

Spent a couple of days here with family while away on a golf comp. Food was good, service good, friendly staff, seems a busy pub.

Loved it here. We were a party of 10 in for Mother's Day lunch. Everybody was more than happy with their food & drink. I can highly recommend the Ultimate Burger. Service was a little slow but I truthfully believe that was down to how busy things were. Some people behind us had and an issue with something but it was handled politely & quickly.

Simply stunning venue. This is the true definition of 'All you can eat' with friendly, charismatic staff and food that tastes as good as it looks.

Food was out of this world, My wife went for sirloin steak cooked to perfection (Rare) all the trimmings not an piece of fat or gristle. I went for the Gammon Steak, it was so tasty and juicy, the cheese and bacon fries and veg complemented it perfectly, we both finished with no leftovers for the dogs at home. Superb.

Amazing pub, food, service on point

Used to love this place- had some cracking meals here before and during the pandemic. Not today! I booked for Mother's day, paid a deposit too, but my Mum and I were very disappointed. We were expecting a beautiful roast with all the trimmings: the menu sounded thoughtfully put together with nice flourishes including roast potatoes with rosemary and garlic. However, my Mum was given what appeared to be tiny air-fried potatoes that were tasteless and totally dehydrated. Portion sizes were disappointing too- two tiny slivers of carrot, one tiny half floret of broccoli, and barely any gravy. We waited for 55 minutes for our meals, and when we explained there was a problem, staff actually attempted to snatch my Mum's plate away, leaving her with nothing. Also didn't make clear to us until I settled the bill that the cost of her meal would be deducted from the total. What should have been a lovely Mum and daughter lunch was left sadly lacking. Fair play to the young chap at the bar whom I settled the bill with. He was genuinely sorry we hadn't had a good experience and was honest about things not being great today. I won't be back- especially as I saw people around us who were waiting even longer than we were. Why were you sitting people down if you couldn't cope with the numbers and serve the food described in your menu? And why did it take an hour to serve a roast? Not good enough, Bell Tree.

I thought the food was great for what it offered. I was in Dundee for vacation and honestly I thought it was a waste of my time to visit the city, but out of it at least I thought the food at that place was decent although very similar to fast food which is basically what a pub normally offers!

Very disappointing! I booked here on 12/03/2025 for our 10th Wedding Anniversary, despite putting on the notes that we met there 15 years ago, had our wedding reception 10 years ago, our 5th anniversary 5 years ago a special place to our hearts. We Didn't expect a red carpet, flowers , etc. just something better than what we received. Upon arrival we waited to be seated for some time, I managed to attracted someone serving behind the bar to be told "wait there someone will be with you I'm behind the bar!" We were then directed to our table which looked as if was just put in the corner out the way due to a larger table sat right next to us. Food ordering time I was asked of any allergies, which I replied Fish, my wife ordered Salmon, I ordered A Rump Steak with Steak Toppers of Prawns. Several minutes later we were told no Salmon available, my wife then chose chicken fajitas. when our meals arrived the waitress said just checking you had a fish allergy but ordered prawns, staff clearly doesn't know their correct allergens. what was supposed to be a romantic meal turned out very disappointed, will be our last anniversary we spend with yourself

AVOID parking in the car park of this pub or in the Adjacent Premier Inn car park which The Bell Tree - Greene King Pub & Grill own. Several large concrete blocks (pictured) were carefully and thoughtfully left in the parking space that I couldn’t see when manoeuvring into, causing significant damage to my car. I went to speak to the bar staff and was met with ‘well, you drove into it’ (never made that customer service seminar did you chief?) and reminded of the signs in the car park cowardly and complicity denying any responsibility for damage. I wish I had a sign like that so I could go around murdering people and saying ‘well, you fell on the knife….’ Or maybe there should be a sign that says ‘concrete block storage- NO PARKING’ ach- that would be just silly. Anyway Mr Customer Service representative, I won’t be dining in your restaurant tonight or any night for that matter and strongly recommend that others park their cars elsewhere. Better still, just dine elsewhere.

Good value meals, amazing staff and brilliant for kids

Booked as it was Friday. I'm glad we did. It was very busy. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. Much better than we expected. It was also table service. Staf were lovely.

We were on holiday in Auchterhouse and went here for lunch to celebrate our son’s 30th birthday. We had a dog with us so we sat in the bar which was really nice. Food was lovely, great portion sizes and not too expensive. Staff were very friendly and made us all feel welcome. Would definitely go here again if back in the area.

Had a cracking family meal again at the Bell Tree. Personally had the Steak Pie, something I wouldn't normally have, usually a full steak or Burger guy but it was fantastic. My partner had the Ultimate Burger, she love it it but it was massive so couldn't finish it all to my delight! Our daughters had the the Chicken Skewer and the Macaroni along with a chocolate brownie which they loved as per. It is an ideal place for us as it is local and the staff couldn't be more helpful or friendly.

Again, bit of a disappointment, we were a party of 6, 4 of which had thinner chips with meal - we all left the majority of our chips as they were slightly undercooked and a bit mushy, this was obvious when plates were cleared but waiting staff obviously not bothered - they both came across as if they didn’t want to be there. I have worked in customer service for over 20 years and was appalled at the lack of enthusiasm and attention. It’s such a shame, as usually the food is great but definitely won’t be back

Been a couple of years since we were here last. Thought it was OK then , but it was so much better tonight. The service was excellent, the food was great and the atmosphere so friendly and warm . Definitely be coming back soon

Have used the Bell Tree many times over the years and have always loved it. Nice atmosphere, great staff and reasonable prices. Food is generally good pub standard but this time it can only be described as appealing. I had battered haddock and chips with a side of battered onion rings . The chips were what I have come to expect in a pub, dry and powdery and needing plenty of vinegar to moisten them. The onion rings looked like they were half cooked and straight out of the freezer bad. Instead of being golden brown and crisp they were soggy, grey and slimy. This was however outdone by the fish which was like dry cardboard and had obviously been sitting in a warming container for some time. Considering the price one would think they would have a little more respect for their customers than to insult them with this garbage. I have ceased to patronise the Bell Tree and strongly advise others to beware.

Awesome food, very friendly staff showed patience and friendliness for the 5 of us.

A huge thank you to Holly, Aiden and the team for ensuring we had an amazing time at our family get together yesterday. The staff couldn't do enough. Food and service was brilliant as usual. Thanks again . Jane and Wayne and the families xx

Went in for a meal on a Saturday night. Meal was excellent. Staff were all brilliant. Food came quickly even though the restaurant was busy. Liked the family atmosphere and that dogs were allowed at the bar. Definitely be back.

Try the macaroni cheese and chips there ABSOLUTELY Brilliant And lots of options 😃😃

4 adults and 2 children, loveliest, most relaxing Xmas Dinner we could have hoped for. Staff were amazing and so attentive, food was perfect, one very happy family. Hollie and her team deserve a big cheers, thank you folks 👏👏

Had Christmas lunch at the Bell Tree Broughty Ferry Dundee. Absolutely brilliant, steak was really tender and the portions were good. Staff were efficient and friendly and we didn’t feel rushed nor neglected. Totally worth the money.

Really nice atmosphere. Excellent staff. Fast friendly service and the food was excellent

Decent example of the Green King chain.

Fund raiser. Great food. Attentive staff. Children very welcome.

Evening food was excellent value for money. Ate twice in a week, bar area only so I can't comment on restaurant. Highlight was the chicken sharer and side salad, great taste and quality. Very busy but servers quick to clean up, remove plates and bring additional condiments. Breakfast was OK but as usual most items are cooked and left to warm for orders. I really didn't like the bacon but this is usual for me in this setting. Great to see option of bubble and squeak. All in I'd recommend.

Very disappointed to be told that our elderly dog couldn't come in despite having agreed this on booking.

Luv coming here. Food great, staff excellent. Will be back soon.

Live sky sports, dog friendly (but controlled) good pub vibe section off the restaurant and great selection of food and drink. Staff are brilliant.

The macaroni and loaded fries were absolutely disgusting. There was about 12 chips supposed to have cheese and bacon on them. Didn’t think you could go wrong with those choices. But you obviously can. Weren’t cheap either. Awful food. Wouldn’t even give it a 1 for food

We had sunday lunch, which was disappointing. Soggy pastry ,dried up roast potatoes and macaroni, which was a bit too al dente

Popped in as staying in Dundee. Enjoyed the steak pie and the onion loaf was delicious.

Every time we come here the staff and food are excellent! Efficient and friendly service even for large parties (orders taken in advance). We will continue to come back!

Next to Premier Inn. Good food and good value. There's also a Chinese and Indian takeaway across the road too

Great food, excellent staff, great value for money

Mice place. Didn't have food just a few drinks. Prices were alright

The Belltree Pub and Grill offers a cozy atmosphere, but the food falls short. Dishes lack flavor and freshness, with overcooked mains and underwhelming sides. Service is decent, but the below-average food doesn't justify the price. Disappointing food overall but the service is very good.

Staff couldn’t have been more helpful, very attentive, food great!! Came in one day just to chill and watch the football, very busy day but you could hear praise from various families having their meals. Senior members of staff going above and beyond to also help new employees which was good to see as a customer knowing top service was passed on to new members of staff. Brilliant

Friendly staff and a very good breakfast! Busy at evening time for meals so book ahead if you can.

I really like it here. The food is good and the staff are friendly and attentive.

Lovely pub, we where staying next door and first night it was fully booked. Food was lovely and enjoyed a nice breakfast in the morning. Very busy so I would book.

Nice pub and food, and dog friendly if having food not in main restaurant, but sitting in bar

Just good staff, beer and food, the rest rooms are clean and tidy . The staff have smiles not frowns unlike other places.

Staying at the Premier Inn next door we popped in chancing our luck for a table for dinner. Staff were great and sorted a table quickly. Food was good, staff were amazing and it was reasonably priced. Breakfast the next morning, cereal and fruit was on a table but hot food had to be ordered. I'm sure the menu said it was unlimited but I may have got that wrong as only one of each item that you asked for on the plate. My wife had more items as I didn't like some of them but no additional items were on my plate so I paid the same price for a lot less food. At no time did staff come near to ask if we wanted more. Would I go back? If I was in the area then yes for dinner but the breakfast wasn't worth it

I've been here a lot of late and I can say that everything I eat here, I am not disappointed. The food quality is good, the staff are quite attentive, which makes life easier and makes it more welcoming overall. I do recommend the Bell Tree, and it also has a blue light discount here as well.

This has quickly became our local, the staff are very friendly and welcoming, led by Holly the GM! The food is always really good, so much so that me and my partner have booked for Christmas! The interior is cosy but modern and always spotlessly clean despite how busy they can be at time! A real gem of a place! Keep it up folks!

Staying in Premier Inn next door for 2 nights. Had dinner on both evenings. Excellent service, food 1st class. Would highly recommend. Booking advisable.🙂😊🙂

Our extended family of 3 adults, a 9 year old and 7 year old enjoyed lunch here one Friday in July. One of the group is a wheelchair user and lives in a near by care home but we didn't have to call to book and let them know as the Green King app has a brilliant reservation system that allows you to alert the restaurant of wheelchair users, request high chairs etc. You can even use the app to order in the restaurant but we chose not to in this occasion. The restaurant decor and staff are excellent making it a pleasant place to eat. The menu is extensive and we opted for the lunch menu and chose salmon, fish n chips and the mini grill. The kids chose the chicken nuggets and flatbread. All meals piping hot and delicious. Overall, a great dining experience and value for money. Enjoy.

Great friendly pub with good drink choice.

What a lovely restaurant. Nice choice of foods, although I'd like to see more variety regarding the desserts. You can only have so much chocolate. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. You would be sensible to book in advance for the weekend. They do online booking which worked well for us. You have to try the Steak Balmoral - omg just the best steak EVER! The staff who deal with breakfasts are lovely and work really hard. They were so welcoming. They showed so much interest in our plans for the day and came up with some interesting suggestions. So appreciated.

Ate here with the family. It was a Saturday afternoon so was busy. We booked in advance. Ordering for 4 adults any 2 children, only children had sweets. Bill came to £173. I didn't think this was too bad. The starters were I thought good. Though my wife had the calamari and said it was limp. The chicken wings were nice and crispy. No grumbles about haggis bites. However, the mains was a disappointment. I had the haddock and chips. The moment it arrived I knew it was pre frozen. The chips were nothing to write home about. There were grumbles about the medium rare steaks. Unfortunately there is no children play areas. Will likely not go again.

Couldn't fault the service nice staff food 👌

Food was ok, but the lady who served us was pretty miserable and not particularly interested

Lovely lunch today, gamon steak great value for money. Defenitely worth a visit.

Been here last 3 times and always enjoyed it. Great food, great staff, and friendly. Nice place to go if you're wanting a family meal or birthday meal. Really nice and relaxing place. I will be back.

Nice wee place, absolutely STELLAR cheeseburgers

Been a few times for lunch / Tea and every meal was spot on , so I thought I would try breakfast, service great as usual but the food was horrendous, lorne and bacon poor quality , tinned mushrooms, potato scone was very undercooked, the haggis was hidden under the egg thankfully, tomato was poor and no choice of white bread for toast , on a plus side the fried egg was good , Definitely need to up your game on the breakfast

Great food, great service and very pleasant surroundings

I had been recommended to visit. Very busy though well managed. High standard of food with actual delicious flavours. Staff were very helpful, there was a small issue, it was immediately resolved by the assistant manager with smiles. Loved the atmosphere as it had a great vibe and ambience, we felt very comfortable and enjoyed all. Will return.

Arrived just after 10 p.m. having just driven from Cairnryan ferry port. Ordered two drinks and enquired about food but advised kitchen just closed. Asked if we could get some chips at local chipper and eat them there as the bar was virtually empty, and mistakenly thought we got an affirmative reply. Well we were wrong but then advised you can't eat them outside either on their deserted wooden benches. We'll bingo for friendliness and hospitality on our first Scotish encounter.

Came in here for a drink & meeting. Only had a can of coke, £3.65!? I questioned this and was told it wasn’t a mistake. You cant charge £3.65 for a can of coke. That just isn’t okay. Unsure what the food is like but i don’t think i want to. That is beyond outrageous.

The restaurant was pretty full, so the service was a little slow. The server was super polite and apologised. The food was fantastic when it came out. My daughter has allergies, and they made sure her order was made to accommodate her, even cooking one menu item different from how it was listed. 5 different meals were ordered, and 5 clean plates went back. That shows just how good the food was.

steak... 12oz rib ... goooood T-bone .....goooood

Prompt friendly service from staff and special mention for Aidan- nothing too much trouble. All burgers good and vegan option v tasty

Not a pleasant place to visit on a Friday night. Filled with loud groups of mildly drunk blokes, and the barman was the grumpies, untidiest, slowest thing on the planet. I'm sure I saw a snail overtake hiim in the car-park later on. Update: may 2024. A quick after-work visit on a Thursday evening. The service was weird and amateurish (e.g. the waitress asked if she could get us anything else while I was paying the bill 🤒). The menu was large but completely uninspiring and the food its self was almost undescribably bland. I can't think of any reason to return.

Me & My Husband had a meal here today and it was lovely food great and cooked well service polite and friendly would deffo recommend & will come back.....

I only spent one night, but it was brilliant. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The food was very good. The room was clean and tidy and I slept very well. I would recommend it to others

Enjoyed Sirloin steaks today, cooked as requested.

The place was busy as normal, but staff were attentive, and the service was good. Food was great.

Had a lovely meal here. Staff were very friendly and helpful .

Pleasantly surprised at our recent visit. Very friendly service, food hot fresh and tasty, menu had lots of options and calorie/vegetarian listing, good prices

Very good lunch menu which was perfectly cooked and very tasty.

Excellent service and food. Staff are always so friendly. Does get busy so best to book on weekends. Would highly recommend.

Brilliant rustic, cosy pub and restaurant. Have been going here for years although don’t manage to get in regularly because it’s a bit out of the way. Stopped today for lunch and had a delicious meal. I started with squid while my partner had the bang bang cauliflower. Squid was excellent with the most delicious sauce and my girlfriend’s cauliflower was also fantastic, almost resembling vegetable pakoras. The starters were only 3.49 to add on with the lunch menu. For mains I had the lunch mini grill which came with gammon, chicken, sausage, chips, peas and a tomato. All of it was fantastic although special call out to the gammon steak which was very juicy and tasty. My girlfriend had the chicken and bacon ciabatta which she thoroughly enjoyed. Service was excellent with drinks coming within a minute or two. Food was also served very quickly. We didn’t have our dog with us but the bar part is dog friendly. They also serve pupacinos. Looking forward to my next visit.

Lovely lunch and lots of gluten free food options for our daughter. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable about dietary requirements

I ordered steak pie and chips. What can go wrong? The pie looked good until I cut into it. What flowed out was just gravy, no meat, nothing that could resemble a STEAK PIE. To top that off, I got a wee bowl of....GRAVY. Must have been all you can slurp GRAVY day. It was disgusting. I would have given it minus 10 if I could. Will never be back. A dump

Fabulous only slight down was asked for steak medium rare and it was definitely more rare but still very tasty, wonderful friendly service

Big booking made for 10++ people, they were very accommodating and helpful.. food was prompt and excellent, no complaints at all! Drinks, service, genuinely, would absolutely recommend! Thanks so much 😊

Fantastic family bar/restaurant, been multiple times and never leave disappointed.

Friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere. Lovely meals and desserts.

Just had a fantastic meal for Mothers Day, food was excellent and the staff very helpful and attentive.

Great place to visit for food & drinks. Food is lovely, great menu, friendly staff & good atmosphere

Just visited this excellent venue and had an amazing meal. Served by Jackie and Amy who were fast, efficient and friendly. The pub restaurant is beautifully laid out, warm and welcoming. A top notch place, excellent staff and thoroughly scrumptious food. Well done all

I had the Salmon with potatoes and a pint of Estrella Galicia. Prices on the Lunch menu are very reasonable. My Salmon with potatoes and sour cream chive sauce was only £9.49. Staff are friendly also.

Stayed at the premier inn for 3 nights so had breakfast and evening meal here. Cannot thank the staff enough for accommodating my 4 year old food allergies. It can be very challenging eating out with multiple allergies and trusting the venue to take it seriously . The staff here were excellent and my son absolutely loved the food . This made a total difference to our ‘holiday’ The food all round was great and I would definitely recommend and return . Huge thanks to all the staff here . Wonderful

Stopped on our way to Aberdeen. Very cosy and nicely decorated. Friendly staff and the food was lovely. Generous portions

Gorgeous food, shame we didn't manage to eat it all. The portion sizes were huge! Staff are friendly and the service was good. We've eaten here several times when staying at the Premier Inn next door. And to be honest, it's what we look forward to the most.

Helen made us feel very welcome! Wonderful service and would highly recommend! The food was absolutely outstanding and we could have stayed there all night! It honestly felt like a home away from home! Again amazing service from Helen and the rest of the staff! Would give more stars if I could!

I had the salmon for lunch. It was good but the rest of the meal was just boiled potatoes, no other veg, could have done with peas and sweetcorn etc. Too many potatoes.

Great atmosphere and service from the staff. Food arrived fairly quickly so no issues there. I had a steak which tasted okay, was very chewy at times and I barely tasted any seasoning at all on it, the chips that came with it were pretty standard. With this I had a side of salad which was very poor. The peppers in the salad were soggy and floppy which was just revolting. The lettuce in there was also soggy and none of it tasted or felt fresh what so ever.

Nice and cosy place ,very comfortable and warm ,food was reasonably priced, definitely will be back 😁

We only go for breakfast so far staff are great food is so tasty nice produce they serve on breakfast menu will keep going back

This Greene King pub is located alongside the Premier Inn East Dundee on the outskirts of the city and provides onsite meals for guests at the latter and others. The interior is tastefully done in a traditional country pub style and although a little noisy at times with groups of people it had a good ambiance in our experience. We used it for a pre-concert snack and some drinks during our stay at the Premier Inn. We were enjoying a drink in the bar and, taking account of our traveling time into the city centre to see a concert, just decided to have their “Chicken Sharer” dish (£12.99) rather than look for somewhere to eat in town. This consisted of a decent plateful with chicken skewers, chicken wings, chicken goujons and chicken strips in assorted flavourings along with fries and a couple of dips. We weren’t mad about the latter but the chicken and chips were filling, tasty and good value for money. It was quite busy and the food took a bit longer than expected to arrive at the table however staff were friendly and when we explained our circumstances they produced the bill very efficiently to get us back on schedule! We were able to pop back in for a nightcap following the concert prior to retiring to our room. Drinks prices: Pint of Best £4.17; G & T £5.95; large glass of wine £6.19 (May 2023). I wouldn’t hesitate to use again in similar circumstances.

Lovely little pub come restaurant with nice food and decent prices

Had tea last night can i just say food was marvellous and the service was fantastic the man and woman both had specs on sorry I never got there names could not do enough 10 out of 10 for evrething

Happy go lucky pub on the side of the Premier Inn.

Really good food and quick service,will be bck,

Cute lights and very welcoming, I recommend x

We were staying next door as visiting family for Christmas had nothing booked and being Christmas Eve thought highly unlikely we would get a table! However the lovely manager I think called Holly found us a table ( thank you) great food great staff and so reasonably priced Next time we are visiting we will be back as great little pub/restaurant
