Absolutely love this place. First came last year with family after my mums funeral. They were very accommodating as it was a walk in for 20. The food was amazing and we vowed to go back. Staff were very professional and polite. Have been back several times since, last being for Xmas fayre. Xmas fayre was amazing quality and value for money. We plan to return with the family to remember mums birthday.

A very welcoming Bar/restaurant in a beautiful location with easy access. There is a lovely selection of foods and drinks available that are very reasonably priced. The tables are set far enough apart for you to have your privacy and leave enough room for wheelchair and mobility access. The staff are warm and welcoming, they can't do enough for you. It is very clean and well maintained. You will also find a variety of social activities here from live bands, weekly quizzes and events such as a Halloween party which is upcoming!! Highly recommended. One of the best in the area in my opinion by far.

Rang to check they were open today. Dan said yes and reserved a table for us for between 12.30 and 1.00pm. On arrival we were greeted by a young lady Victoria who made us feel more than welcome. Spoilt for choice on a super menu. Hubby chose Nottingham pie!!! Steak and ale pie with a crumble and Stilton topping instead of pastry. He loved it. I chose battered cod with chips and mushies. First class. Then Ruth checked all was well. Of course we said perfect, thank you. The food is absolutely 1st Class and prices are fine too. Before we left we booked for 2 future Sunday lunches. Hopefully we will be booking for many more. Unfortunately there is no Disability toilet, BUT no problem the ladies is very spacious and very nice too. Spotless toilets, as is the rest of the Blue Bell. Thank you Dan, Victoria, and Ruth. Jan & John.

What can I say... We had a meal while camping . I can honestly say the service was amazing so friendly it felt like I was at home . But the food is just out of this world . This fish was the size of a whale. The chips where beautifully cooked so tasty. The home made lasagne was so tasty well cooked & presented just amazing. Burgers just sublime. The scampi with prawns just perfectly cooked & so tasty... All I can say is 6 meals 6very happy people. I can highly recommend this place for a great evening meal with friendly service thanks to Lotty & the staff . A big thanks to the chefs too.

If you are going to have a problem with your car, this is the place to have it. The proprietor and a customer helped me. Their kindness helped myself and my young passenger back on the road, they also picked up a fault on the tyre, which I was told to go very slow which I did & had a company come out to repair. Kindest, friendliest and caring people. Thank you, I am passing your kindness forward, as we discussed. .❤️ Thank you.
