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
