Best Sunday lunch in the NW. All home made. Pub of the year landlord and landlady. No wonder it's popular. UPDATE: a new roof won't cosmetically change the building, however two people continue to make it one of the best pubs in Levenshulme. I'm referring to Mark and Mary. We'll done guys and get well soon both of you.

Resisting the gentrification of Levenshulme, we can find this authentic pub. Not a bad selection of beers. Good atmosphere to go for a chat and a drink. They have a nice beer garden as well.

Close your eyes and imagine that feeling where it’s freezing outside and you stumble upon a cosy, warm, inviting, traditional pub with a roaring fire. Open them. You are in the Bluebell.

Possibly the strangest pub I've ever been in 😅 expect lots of posters with so many rules it's becomes funny. No loud talking, no swearing, no dogs, no kids, no standing in this area, no phones on tables in fact no phones to be used in the pub at all...but it's ok to use when they need your payment 😂

Called in this pub while passing didn't no what to expect as we walked in we saw a sign saying no mobiles conversation pub thinking nothing of it we were met with a very friendly landlord who introduced himself and then proceeded to give us a full tour of his bar and beers giving us samples and tastes as we went. It was a large big pub with a few rooms large car park and a old fashioned pub look there was a few people in and friendly atmosphere no music on and the landlord explained mobile phones weren't allowed which was a bit unusual but would go back beer prices varied from very cheap to expensive

Nice pub. Nice staff & landlord. Leave your mobile in your bag or pocket. If Mr Samuel Smith comes into the pub on the off chance he will shut the pub down if he sees anyone with an electronic device. Even if your not using it. Better still put it on silent. Atmosphere in the pub is really nice and friendly.

This pub is relatively cosy, and I think if you're a regular, or an older person, it's a good pub. However, it's important to know that it's an anti-electronics place, and while that may be your thing (great), as a person who may rely on their phone for whatever reasons, it's not great. The lady who served me was nice enough, but I probably won't go again the next time I'm in Manchester.

A few pubs in Levenshulme don't do lunch but The Blue Belle did and man it was good . I'm a New Zealand farmer who loves a good feed and that is exactly what I got . I normally finish my meals and start on my wife's leftovers but not today. Friendly staff and lovely beer garden to sit and take in a sunny day. Sweet as.

Old school as they come, just what you'd expect from a Sam smith pub. Had double 4 on which you don't get in all there pubs. Great beer garden. If your too young to remember or weren't born before 1990 then this is what lots of pubs used to be like back in the day... Remember to put your phone away and no swearing or the big man will come down and shut the place and we don't want that.

Theres a really diverse crowd attracted to this place and it feels very homely and local, will definitely be coming back!

Terrible. Been before and was ok. Drinks were flowing and staff friendly. Waitress today was rude, abrupt and aggressive. Had to ask for welcome drink twice. Food was just ok. Told you have 2 hour sitting. But told couldn’t order drinks after 80 minutes. Asked if we could order 2 then and was told no. Wouldn’t go back!

Hotpot in general is good food for cold and wet weather. But this hotpot itself I think is just okay. The vegetable soup is rich and light. The tomyum doesn’t really taste so tomyum. The price is reasonable for a hotpot.
