The village pub is lovely overall, but one of the staff members working at the bar was incredibly unpleasant and unwelcoming towards me during my last visit. I waited at the bar for about 5-10 minutes to be served, only for this woman to call last orders and refuse to serve me when I asked for a drink. She rudely turned her back to me and told me the bar had closed, without even a smile. I was completely sober, as I had just finished work and was meeting friends for one drink before heading home. Her unnecessary rudeness has discouraged me from returning, and I question why they would hire someone who clearly lacks basic hospitality skills. I understand if she couldn't serve more drinks, but...
Check the reviews. Some say no food, owners say, contrariwise, we 've got the nosh you want. I can only say that my request for food for myself and party, at 13:30 on a sunny Thursday was, 'Sorry, no, no food today ' The lady behind the bar didn 't actually add, 'Don 't you know there 's a war on ', but that 's how it felt. This is a pretty pub in the historic centre of an attractive town. It should be full. The fact that there was only one punter at the bar when I called should give the owners food for thought, even if thinking to supply food isn 't their thing.
Once again the Bell is always good for entertainment and a good evening. Could do with the usual spruce up and serve a bit of grub/snacks. Always can have a dance and last time there was a really good singer. KEEP OUT THE KIDS. The trade ain't worth it or sell tickets for drinks at a certain time with ID. At least you get your monies worth before throwing them out.
This charming village pub has a very warm and welcoming staff, creating a friendly environment. We have dined here numerous times and the food has always been fresh, well presented, and delicious. Even during lockdown, we have used the takeaway service which has always impressed us. We highly recommend this place!

During my stay at Travelodge on the opposite side of the motorway from Icknield Way, I decided to stop by The Bell for Sunday lunch. I must say, it was a delightful meal with fresh meat and vegetables. The staff and atmosphere were also wonderful. I will definitely be returning when I am in the area again.
