The Bluebell Bistro in Chelmsford

We visited the bluebell bistro for lunch my wife had the roast beef which was very good and I had the swordfish steak which I’m afraid was well overcooked also far too many tomatoes we have never been here before we had a look in the back restaurant it seemed quite cold and sparse needs some pictures on the walls to soften the atmosphere the front restaurant area is better but not very busy when we visited obviously it is being refurbished at the moment we will try again in the summer.

We went for Sunday lunch and had a delicious meal. The staff could not have been more friendly and attentive. This restaurant deserves to succeed and we will definitely return soon

I have visited 3 times twice for Sunday lunch which is amazing cannot beat the roast dinner or service. Last night we went for a valentines dinner we both enjoyed it very much. Sister sax was brilliant made the evening special. We ordered steak and a chicken dish both tasted lovely. The waitress who served us is a credit to the restaurant and very attentive. Looking forward to returning.

First time at the Bluebell and what a beautiful roast ! Everything spot on and the beef was outstanding. Great service too. Well done team Bluebell. See you soon

Visited for Sunday lunch last week with family. Very nice restaurant with very polite and efficient staff. The roast was excellent, great beef and plentiful vegetables. Food and drinks were well priced. I thoroughly recommend a visit to this new restaurant.

Went with the family for a roast on Sunday. Portions were great, staff really attentive and the music gave a good vibe. I had roast pork which was cooked perfectly and tried some of the beef which was also great. Everyone had a different dessert and they were all great. Well worth a visit

Wonderful experience, the food was amazing and the two ladies was so kind and helpful to our party, Mel was really assertive and helpful. Mel would keep checking if we was okay or if we needed anything. Thank you so much for making grandads birthday a great one

We were so grateful that we were able to hold a post funeral get together at the Bistro. The food and service was fantastic and they couldn’t do enough for us. A huge thank you to Mike, Ollie and the team. We are looking forward to our next visit in the restaurant!

Enjoyed a Sunday meal at The Bluebell Bistro, where the Sea Bass from the Sunday menu was nicely prepared. The staff demonstrated friendliness and attentiveness, contributing to a positive atmosphere. Service was efficient, and the prices were very reasonable. The Bluebell Bistro offers a splendid option for those looking for a decent meal in a comfortable setting.

Family meal to celebrate my birthday, lovely food in comfortable surroundings, served by attentive waiters. Looking forward to returning soon!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Blue Bell Bistro in South Woodham Ferrers for their outstanding service on Saturday, November 11th. The owner and the entire staff went above and beyond to prepare the venue, creating the perfect ambience for my party of around 50 people. The food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and efficient. Everyone felt welcome and had a great time. It was a special birthday celebration, and we all thought it was exceptional.

Food was absolutely outstanding well presented and of course delicious. Service was amazing too, waitress was very kind, chatty and recommended a few things off the menu too! Will definitely be coming back

Great Sunday lunch, the beef was fab and the two young ladies serving were so friendly! really great service and perfect for a wet and cold Sunday!

2nd time visiting the bluebell bistro and found that on both occasions the food and service was excellent, I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough as food is better than top class restaurants in London and excellent value for money, staff are very attentive and can not fault them in any way. If you fancy a meal out then this is a fantastic choice, and a big a thank you to kayla for the fabulous service tonight.

I know this has been open for a few months and had a few teething problems at their start but my review is based on attending last Sunday. There were four of us with different tastes but we skipped starters and went straight to the mains hoping to leave room for dessert. Two had the roast beef and two the roast pork. Not knowing portion size we added some extra stuffing, roast potatoes and pigs in blankets. All food was fresh, tasty and plenty of it. It was also very well prepared and presented. Resulting in four empty plates. The desserts chosen were chocolate brownie and apple cobbler with home made ice cream. Again excellent quality, well presented and very nice. The staff were very friendly and a credit to the restaurant. Just the right level of interaction. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and can’t wait go back. Thank you
