Fantastic visit to the Blue Bell. Service by all was brilliant and very helpful throughout our time there. we sat in the bar area and there were a few others at the bar who were chatty and was lovely atmosphere. We were advised the meat feast for the 3 of us would be more than enough and it really was, food was excellent and cant wait to return. Many thanks to all the staff it was a cracking night

I hate it when restaurants put a discretionary service charge on. I pay it but would tip anyway if the food and service are value for money.And a further point is the Employer should be paying decent salaries without staff having to rely on tips for their living.
