The Blue Bell Ranskill in Bassetlaw

Visited several times for meals always cooked to perfection. Sunday lunch did not disappoint the pork just melted in my mouth. All the vegetables are fresh and served piping hot. Would definitely recommend. Staff are welcoming, friendly and nothing too much trouble

Held my mums wake here and was not disappointed. Food was plentiful, service was respectful and nothing was too much trouble. Thankyou to all staff. Would highly recommend.

As always an excellent lunch ,your chef has out done himself with the amazing meat filled chunky pie ! Beautiful , thanks Dan

Amazing pub food. I had Brazen stake. Great fast service. Nice calm decor. Great portions. Highly recommended

This place was the most delicious, incredible, lovely food I have ever eaten, with great service and the atmosphere was great!

Great traditional pub, friendly staff, good food and beer.

Great pub great staff 1st visit will be back

Wonderful place with me being old they was so accommodating to help me with everything couldn't ask for better staff and food and the owner is a wonderfully man who is very helpful

Best staff and prices for miles

One of the best places I've been in a long time for the price owner is amazing

Good pub. Great food. Beer on the expensive side

A very enjoyable afternoon, try the cocktails, excellent Chilean Savin wine try it

Lovely village pub, excellent food, price for meals was around £13-14 a main which for the quality I felt was excellent value, definitely recommended.

Food was amazing but Ruth the waitress was the most rememberable part of our visit went out of her way for us thank you will be returning!

Was really nice . Only a little lunch but very nice will definitely be back x

Great place to eat lovely friendly staff and a good selection on the menu

Limited choice and food bland ,no friendly atmosphere, .

It was really busy but my meal was Luke warm, the halumi was hard. Not that impressed

Everything was great disappointed by the use of frozen roasties though

Fantastic food, good value for money, staff so helpful and friendly . Sunday lunch outstanding. Cannot wait to go again. Surf & turf, homemade pies. We recommend to our family and family

Lovely food service very good and the staff were very friendly and helpful

Lovely meal here. Rang last minute fitted us in, a party of 5. Had traditional fish & chips which was lovely. Reasonable price. Staff lovely.

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.

Nice food great service from nice staff worth a visit.

Good food, good portions, good service and no juke box or gambling machine to spoil the atmosphere

Visited and had a great Sunday lunch.

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.

First time but definitely not our last was excellent.

My whole experience was great! Ruth was absolutely amazing and if we asked anything it was no trouble for anyone. I will definitely be going back again.

A group of 12 of us had a lovely meal tonight . The food & service was outstanding. Huge portions & enjoyed by us all. Definitely recommend. Thank you!!

First visit to The Blue Bell, but will not be the last. The food was excellent and the service was second to none. The staff were all extremely polite and very professional but also very friendly at the same time.

Love it great food and good beer, what more could I ask for

Lovely food, really nice pub and the staff are all great

Food was good quality and well presented. Table bit small for 9 people and food came out slow and in 2 parts so some food was cool when all the veg and gravy arrived.

Pleasant change to chain pub grub. Thoroughly enjoyed our meals.

Went today for a funeral the food was amazing and the staff were so helpful and friendly thanks so much for turning a sad day to being a bit brighter thanks so much from all the family 😊

Amazing food, service and value for money.

Call in this Sunday after booking a table for 3 order food did not have long to wait and it was brill best Sunday lunch we have had out for a long time staff was very helpful good price we will be going back again keep up the good work and a big thank you

Fantastic evening. Lovely food and service.

Went for a meal tonight not the best of menus I had the steak which was okay but the wife had the pie it tasted like it was full of salt absolutely disgusting want be going back value for money is very poor

Went for Sunday lunch today, it was lovely, will certainly return.

OMG the food was absolutely incredible. Delicious from start to finish. Amazing friendly staff and a beautiful clean welcoming atmosphere. What more could you want. This place is an absolute hidden gem. We shall definitely be returning, sooner rather than later. Cannot wait to go back for even more outstanding food and wonderful service. Thank you for a great time.

Had a beautiful Sunday dinner with my family, service brilliant, food delicious excellent value for money will deffinatly be recommending and visiting again.

Topclass establishment will definitely visit again. Dealt well with a party of 14.

Fabulous 1st class 6star really.

My 2nd lunchtime visit. Food was delicious. Well presented, decent sized portions. Would definitely be recommending to family and friends. Looking forward to our next ladies catch up and lunch at the Blue Bell.

Nice dog friendly pub, food met our needs exactly, normal good standard reasonably priced pub food without being OTT gastropub, we were on soft drinks, so can comment on beers.

Found by accident on way from Castleton to Lincoln Very friendly and fairly priced

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.

Sat and had a Sunday roast and a cold pint in the sun trap beer garden! Staff very attentive, food piping hot and delicious. Very fresh and definitely a roast to remember. Lovely outside space to enjoy a cold drink in the summer.

Lovely food and excellent service ,more of a restaurant than a pub.

Each time I go I have had an enjoyable meal. Pleasant staff! Quick service! I do recommend The Blue Bell, it's worth a visit!

Great pub, good food, and nice atmosphere

Called for Sunday lunch didn't disappoint had the lamb cooked to perfection very tasty home cooked food nice atmosphere and very friendly staff ,will return again when passing though.

Went in for a Sunday lunch and had the lamb and beef. Phenomenally good, definitely the best in the local area. Would highly recommend. Particularly if Ruth is working that day. The only thing better than the food is her service. Food: 5 out of 5 Price: 5 out of 5 Ruth: 6 out of 5

Great pub , friendly staff and good atmosphere. Quiz night is pretty good too.

Very welcoming team at Blue Bell, food really delicious, we had pulled pork nachos for shared starter, then Steak and Ale pie with home made chips and mushy peas, lasagne with salad, garlic bread, would recommend booking as very popular,

Very nice, food good service fine enjoyable lunch.

Food came to table after 5 minutes of ordering , just warmed up taste less food , disappointed after a few good meals 😡

The food was reasonable, the staff pleasant. A good atmosphere in typical British pub surroundings. Enjoyable but over priced in my opinion.

Nice food, friendly staff and a nice quiet atmosphere. Would recommend to others.

Great friendly atmosphere, food and drink spot on.great staff.

Staff are very welcoming and polite food was well presented and tasted great only let down was not Colmens English mustard

The food here is fantastic, the fish &chips are to die for. The service is second to none and the staff are absolutely great. Thank you for a fantastic evening

Lovely Sunday dinner served by friendly staff

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.

Thoroughly enjoyed will certainly be back

Really tasty food and good prices. This is typical pub type food but can highly recommend it as the portions and prices are excellent. Staff were all really friendly and the food delicious, will definitely be back.

Great little pub friendly staff great beer love it x

Very good lunch with wide choice on the menu. Friendly and efficient staff too.

Can't fault it, excellent evening with friends, enjoying some of the best food I've eaten for a long time. Not that I get out often lol. Loving evening. X

Great food Great atmosphere. Definitely going again

Third visit this year and just as good as the previous two. Both food and service were excellent.

Had a lovely meal with family last night. Having lived in the village for over 3 years, can’t believe this was the first time we have visited!! We weren’t disappointed. The service was great and the food was outstanding. The decor of the pub is done so well and is very inviting. Will definitely be back very soon. Thank you 😊

Brilliant Wednesday night quiz!

Food was lovely had garlic mushrooms and the Sunday dinner was the standard one

Went for Sunday lunch and it was very nice a lot of the things on the menu had they had runout on but it was a bank holiday. Not much choice other than Sunday roast, but would go again.

Very late getting table which was booked,service very slow

Excellent value, great food, friendly team, will be back.....👍 Great Nottinghamshire Pie tonight.

Lovely reception when we walked through the door, great menu, just what we were looking for, food was great, service excellent, the only down was just one hand pull beer offered, we will be back, really enjoyed.

Lovely warm welcome. Never been before but would certainly come again. Food not expensive but Lovely quality. Nice change coming to a place that's clean, friendly and value for money.. would recommend.

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.
