The Blue Bell in Blaby

Handbags from a pair of gut Lords detracted from an otherwise altogether acceptable experience

The place to be on a Friday night. Live music, good selection of drinks & a great atmosphere what more could you want.

Went for a pint on a Monday night but it was closed! What pub is closed on a Monday night. Landlord has no idea how to run a business. I give it 6 months before they go bust at this rate.

Here for a funeral. Well looked after.

Nice local pub went for a beer and the local Morris dancers came in .wad lovely

Staff were very friendly. Ale well kept

Great dog friendly pub with live music and a good village feeling. The pub is part of the Everard's group, so the only real beer on tap is from that brewery. It would be great to see some guest ale. On the whole, a good night out.

Fantastic atmosphere great service

Fabulous evening at blue bell , live band on beats workin , friendly staff and customer.

Always friendly, foods always good. What more can you ask for? 😎

Visitors to stoney Stanton - this pub advertises food on the exterior and interior of the pub but they don’t sell food!!!! WTF! Live band was good ( hence the 3 stars) but for gods sake it isn’t difficult to update your website - WE HAVEN’T SOLD FOOD SINCE COVID!!!

Great local pub with friendly atmosphere

My go to place in the village for meet ups, great beer and friendly service

Fantastic pub, with lots to offer including live music on Friday nights with awesome bands such as Third Alert!

Lovely warm reception great staff and lovely food x

Went for Sunday dinner the food was very good the atmosphere was good friendly people who served us very enjoyable would recommend

I visit this pub on a regular basis with both my band (Acsia) and the quiz that I run. Jade and Chris are always so welcoming and friendly and the clientele that visit the pub are just as welcoming. Pay it a visit and support your locals people :)

Lovely room, slept well and breakfast splendid.Fabio is a credit,we have Sicily on the Radar next

We were made to feel extremely welcome and loved that our dog was made so welcome too. Staff were super friendly and we really enjoyed the pop up Greek Taverna food. Thank you 😊

The starters we all had were amazing. A lovely choice of vegetables they just wasn't cooked enough for 3 out of the 4 of us. Next time we come I will ask for veg to be cooked longer. I've got a friend who goes there regularly she said they are normally well cooked it must have just been we was last ones in that day. Will definitely try again. Excellent vaule we will all have small plates next time plenty for you

Much needed cold refreshing beer in the beer garden! Friendly, welcoming staff and a lovely place to sit and have a chat with friends

Booked the family in for Sunday Lunch, party of 4. The food was fantastic, perfectly cooked and plenty of it! Superb veggies and yorkies and the best gravy.. we had 2 refills.. soo good. Super friendly service and GREAT VALUE for money. Booked again for next week :-)

Very nice , good beer and friendly staff.

A most enjoyable evening, nice people, and the entertainment by David Kendall 🎸 crow band.

Nice little pub with outside seating and good beer and cider

Solid local pub. Friendly helpful staff.a quick visit. Would go again.

Great pub great staff lovely people pleasure to play live music venue brilliant

The best pub in Stoney Stanton! Jade and Chris are fantastic landlords, the pub is clean, welcoming and friendly. Live music when it's on here is not to be missed ☺

Fantastic pub I would recommend to anybody. Owners and staff are lovely, the beers are great and they put on tons of fun themed evenings. 10/10

We visited the bluebell for Sunday lunch as a family of 9, the food was fantastic and all served at the same time and hot, the staff were attentive and polite, nothing was too much trouble. The roasts meats were pork beef or turkey, or a combination, the whole meal was excellent value for money and the syrup sponge pudding was great, thanks all I would thoroughly recommend this place to try for yourselves.

Well we knew they did great food because we have been having breakfast or breakfast sandwiches from the outside kitchen always fabulous. We went inside for Sunday lunch today. I don't think we need to eat again all week loads of food great price and the food was excellent. We will definitely be eating here again thankyou all great food and great service.

Local Everards pub with good drinks, friendly staff and takeaway breakfast butties. Recommended!

Best Sunday Lunch I’ve ever had in Leicester. Home cooked , well presented , good portions, hot , amazing Yorkies and the staff are lovely .

Cracking little pub, very welcoming friendly staff. Highly recommend a visit 😊

Sat in the garden. Enjoyed beer. Really friendly. Need more?

Best pub in village chris and jade and the team are so friendly

The pub is closed but Jade and Chris are running a fantastic cob van in the car park. Pop along and grab a bite and some coffee...

Splendidly distanced, fantastically quiet, (but we are enduring a pandemic) and excellent beer.... Let's hope we can say the same this time next year 🙂

Friendly service great beer and appropriate precautions

Excellent and safe place to be, really have made me feel welcome. Great food, great staff. Warm place to be. Working fantastic in current situation, hats off to everyone working.

Been made to feel very unwelcome by management who would not allow me to use suace without using a sachet, very in environmentally friendly. Would avoid if you like the environment

We visited the Blue Bell recently having just moved to the area. We were pleasantly surprised by the first class service by friendly servers and bar staff. I ordered a steak which was cooked to my taste perfectly. We enjoyed the meal so much we recommended it to my in-laws who visited for a Sunday Roast and also really enjoyed their meal. Definitely want to make this our new local!

Excellent, fabulous Sunday lunch, staff very friendly. Lovely.

This is a very friendly pub and excellent service.

Great psychic night lovely food definitely do it again so worth the money

Staff accomodating with my dietary needs-provided lovely alternative. Very helpful & friendly.

Great pub! Beats Workin' band played the blue bell... Fab crowd, packed house. Great landlady & landlord. Great beers too. Good food too by all accounts. I will be eating there very soon. Just a fab boozer. Loved it!

We took the family here a couple of weeks ago and were really impressed with the food - all meals were great and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Our daughter has an allergy and the staff went out of their way to make her a version of what she had ordered especially as they couldn't guarantee the ingredients of the original. We have never had such accommodating service anywhere else. We will definitely be back - we are lucky enough to love locally :-)

Nice setting and good pub grub for a casual meal.

Jade & Chris offer up a 1st class pub with quality ales and hearty home cooked food for all to enjoy. Great atmosphere with all visitors welcomed on arrival by the team and regulars with a friendly smile and hello. The team even remember your drink of choice - Great service!!! Exceptionally clean and tidy Pub - Well worth a visit.

What a lovely friendly village pub with great selection of ales and gins. We recently celebrated our wedding anniversary with a delicious meal, freshly cooked , Jades homemade pies were to die for, and i had number of gluten free meals to choose from which made it extra special. The staff , Chris and Jade have all made us feel so welcome, as new residence to the village. We love the way how the host go that extra mile and do their upmost to keep the community spirit alive and take pride in the work they do. Well gone guys. We will be back.

Coming from a big city i have now found a village pub which has made me feel part of the community and reminding me of what ive missed in a pub for decades.The hosts and their staff are a well oiled machine and nothing is too much trouble.Be it a quick pint whilst walking the dog or an evening meal with my wife or a good old foot-tapping session with the Friday night live band.They try to cater for everyone and please everyone.This is such a hard task as there is always a small minority who will find fault. We have had evening meals and Sunday dinners here with family and friends and always leave thru the bluebells welcoming doors feeling positive and with a smile on our faces. To top it all they are extremely dog friendly and even allow me to wear the rival rugby team shirt as long as i sit in the corner sipping my ale. Talking of ales,they have a fine selection of everards beers,a guest ale and a good selection of lagers and gins.Their product knowledge is second to none.Counting the days til i darken the Bluebells doorstep again.

Having visited The Blue Bell on numerous occasions I can honestly say that the food their is impeccable always served hot and freshly cooked. The staff along with Jade and Chris always go out of their way to make you feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend this establishment and will be returning soon for a fabulous Sunday Roast . 👍👍

I called in with my dog for a drink and a chat on a weekday early evening. Lovely warm welcome and made to feel part of a village community even though I didn’t know everyone there. Several solo drinkers who were included in the chat. Good quality drinks in a well managed pub. Highly recommend. The food is great Wednesday-Sunday as well.

Came with a friend for the live band performing on a Friday, absolutely brilliant entertainment and friendly staff who recommended some fab gins for me to try! 😍

Me and my partner visited recently for a meal out. The food was beautiful, the service was great and they had a great selection of gins. Couldn't fault them at all, will definitely be visiting again.

Ate dinner here as a couple here last Friday, pork loin and the mustard sauce is to die for, lovely setting, excellent choice of beers and wines, freidnly helpful staff, and the live music after dinner was an added bonus! Well worth a visit, will certainly be return here in the near future

Owners were very welcoming and regulars very friendly when we went. Food was very good and service couldn't be better. Very highly recommended.

We visited on Sunday for a Sunday lunch and it was so delicious .. , lunch here is absolutely mouth watering all home cooked and all fresh & hot, lots of choice with meats and puddings to die for ... we don’t go anywhere else as my hubby is very selective, we also attended an Elvis night and again such an amazing atmosphere! Our lovely family pub offers, great wines and lots of Gin chooses and a great range of ales / larger ... Jade and Chris are both warm and friendly, always happy to see you and such a good laugh ... not to mention beautiful Fergie their pooch 🐶.. thanks both for a lovely wknd ... looking forward to the 90’s night 👍🏻 100 percent recommend for food drink and a all around great atmosphere 👍🏻 Keep up the good work guys we love coming in to see you all .... 😁

Met up with friends at the weekend and we tried The blue bell in Stoney Stanton. It was a great find a lovely village pub with great British classic food. On to the food great choice and we all ordered different dishes !! Orders were taken at the table by Friendly staff Food was amazing real home cooked classics The pub has a great happy atmosphere and overhearing locals joking with the staff Overall great SERVICE STAFF FOOD & DRINK We will definitely be recommending this place and returning for more great food and hospitality . THANKS BLUE BELL STONEY STANTON

Given this is an independently run pub the service was absolutely terrible. Owners are very rude, we couldn't wait to leave. Wont be returning and do not recommend. There are much nicer pubs in the village and surrounding villages

Friendly local pub. Great beer. Great atmosphere.

Our local. Always got the 3 main Everards beers on plus a guest. Food is great and Landlords are very accomodating. Dog friendly (as is the Landlords dog :-) Live bands on a Friday when advertised.

A lovely village pub with a good atmosphere. We only stopped off for a drink so we can not comment on the quality of the menu. However, the advertised menu was varied and reasonably priced.

Listened to good music tonight. Prime were excellent

Nice friendly pub, not tried food yet but definitely will at some point looks good

First time I had been for a meal..really nice, definitely go back

Superb food And service thank you

Lovely place, great freindly service and delicious fairly priced food. Highly recommend, will be back

Really amazing food, great kind staff

Great place for Booze food and live music!

This was my 2nd visit to The Bluebell, both times with collegues from the local GP surgery. On both occasions i had the vegetable lasagne, which without a doubt is the best lasagne i have ever had. It was deep and full of taste. It came with a dressed salad with garlic bread. We were politely asked if the meals were ok without staff being over enthusiastic and continually asking. I don't think anyone had a less than perfect meal. Staff were friendly and welcoming from the minute we walked through the door. The decor is very well thought out and comfortable. Meals are not over priced, with the added bonus of 40% off between 4pm and 6pm. All of the meals looked homemade and presented perfectly. I cannot fault the Blue Bell at all and will definately return for the vegetable lasagne. Thank you to everyone who was there on the night we visited. I think anyone who has anything bad about this place is probably writing a review for the sake of it.. just one small request-please never take the vegetable lasagne off the menue

The family and I had a meal in the Bluebell for my birthday. I can not fault the food, the service or the staff. We stayed for the rest of the evening as a live band was very on, it being a Friday and they have music every Friday. Huge range of gin to choose from so I was happy.

Really nice place. Very popular and friendly atmosphere. Good selection of beers. Dog friendly as well, nice 🐶

Heart of the village, a little over modernised from is glory days as a quaint old fashioned pub

Visited here numerous times and the service never fails! Always a warm welcome from The Landlady & Landlord, with a great selection of gins. Lovely pub with a great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Have eaten here several times with family and always had a warm welcome so decided to book with a group of friends. It was Italian night and the I can honestly say it’s the best pizza I’ve had since visiting Lake Como! Great atmosphere, just what a village pub should be. Will be back soon.

Another fantastic visit to this cosy and welcoming village pub. Lovely food and a very pleasing selection of gins. The Landlord and Lady couldn’t be more accommodating, great people, great pub!

Lovely place for a g&t; and catch up. I have also visited several times for food, yummy!!! I cannot fault the food, hosts and especially all the lovely gins on offer. Would highly recommend.

All was well until we sent a dessert back for tasting strange and then the land lady took a disliking to us, stormed off and spent the rest of the evening refusing to acknowledge or serve us. Strange place.

Wonderful Sunday dinner can't wait to go again

Perfect local pub. Always friendly service and a great selection of drinks!

Fantastic night tonight would recommend going to see live bands

My husband and i visited here whilst staying in the area. Lovely homely pub with very nice surroundings.The food was excellent, i had the lasagne and my husband had the risotto. Chris and Jade who run it are so welcoming and helpful, Chris even

We visited the Blue Bell for the first time this evening for a meal and thorough enjoyed it. A warm welcome from the staff started it very well. They were happy to accommodate a minor change of vegetables and the food was served promptly and was excellent. Good sized portions all fantastically cooked. Not only was it good value for money but extremely tasty as well. Staff and owners were on hand at all times checking if everything was ok and taking any further orders immediately. The atmosphere was perfect, relaxed, not noisy yet nice and cosy. The coffee to finish off the evening was excellent which is a change for a local pub. Thnak you for a lovely evening to all the staff and chef. Will definitely return and looking forward to trying the Italian night. Would highly recommend this local establishment , a hidden gem.

We were picking up a fridge freezer from a nearby home and the staff popped out without being asked to give us a hand getting it in our van. Lovely community vibe! Thank you!

It was clean and made welcome by all the staff that work there

Nice pub for a few drinks with friends. Cosy and relaxed atmosphere, have a wide range of gins on offer as well as beer on tap! Plenty of seating and dog friendly.

A little gem in the heart of Stoney Stanton, with a very friendly Landlord and Landlady. New to the area, we were greeted with a warm welcome in a relaxing and cosy pub with character, good food, and weekly live music. Certainly worth a visit if you are passing by or live not too far away!

Visited the Blue Bell for Sunday lunch on the 11Nov with friend and her father in law. We had just started lunch (starter was amazing) he started to feel poorly and we decided he needed to go to A&E; Jade and Chris were so helpful to our situation as we decided to leave straight away, we didn’t pay our bill even though we had ordered starters / mains and wine, they could not have been more helpful. We have returned today Wednesday 14Nov for Italian night, and to such a warm welcome from the Blue Bell team!! Asked us about father in law to check how he was. Sat us down with the menus in the bar we ordered starters and mains and we then moved into the busy and lively restaurant. Service was prompt and efficient nothing was too much trouble for the Blue Bell team, food was so tasty my pasta with blue cheese and pancetta was the best pasta I have eaten for a long while! We were very full up after two courses but we were persuaded (by Chris) to try the tirimusui so we ordered one between us - what can I say? We ate it all!!!! First time here for Italian night, will definitely be back.

It's okay, nothing exciting but miles better than any of the managed house that try to corner the market. Because i was a late 'chance' arrival I was at least grateful to being fed, the beer was fine, a sensible choice though not really my own cup of whatderyercallit. Can't fault really, but wouldn't want to mislead readers by saying it was great or fantastic, because it wasn't. But, would I go again, well yes, I would.

Such a nice little find! Just so happened to arrive on Italian night and I'm assuming landlady was kind enough to squeeze us in on a fully booked night! Food was incredible, lovely atmosphere, if going for food book, it's worth it!

It's like a seen from a cowboy movie everyone stops and looks at you

This was the second time we have visited The Bluebell in about 3 weeks and it was way above our expectations. This time we invited family of which one was gluten and dairy free. Chris and Jade went "above and beyond" in making sure everything was to our satisfaction. We had to wait for our meals a little longer than usual, due to the chef wanting to make sure that everything was in order. When the food arrived it was delicious so worth the wait. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming here and as we have only just moved to the village, I think this is now our local! I think that in the not too distant future we will be trying Sunday Lunch.

Really good food. 40% off 4-6 Wednesday to Saturday. Great offer!

Take away fish and chips are really nice and good value.

Visited these premises twice over the last week as we were staying in the area. On both occasions we hadn't booked a table but Jade was able to sort one out for us. The food was excellent and the beer even better. Used by the locals and dog friendly what more do you want,will be returning. Oh and a 40% reduction for early eaters.

Blue bell has great food and it's dog friendly, which is amazing.

Lovely local pub. Dog friendly and very tasty food.
