About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
The Bluebell is a smart, modern place to relax offering fuss-free food and drinks that retain the reputation for quality we’ve hopefully earned at Stones. Dogs are welcome in our outdoor space and bar area. No dogs will be allowed in the restaurant-style extension. Parking Please note we have a car park on-site however it can get very busy and is limited. Please respect the neighbours when parking on-street by not blocking their driveways. Please do not park opposite other cars therefore making the road too narrow to pass. Come and join us at this beautiful old pub very soon. Please note we are closed on Sunday evenings and all day on Mondays.

    Visited with family whilst away for a weekend. Service was fantastic, they couldn’t have been any more accommodating. Menu was lovely and we all enjoyed our meals.

    Very nice meal with good flavours but a little pricy., wine also has a big mark up. Paying mid £20's for a bottle with a screw cap is over the top.

    We had the burger & lamb unfortunately I could have done with a steak knife to cut my lamb, it was tough and the celeriac was undercooked my whole meal was lacking in flavour. My husband’s burger was nice he said. I have wanted to try the Bluebell for a while and we traveled 40 mins to get there! We were underwhelmed to say the least given the good reviews! However on a plus point we did find the drinks reasonably priced.

    The atmosphere was lovely and very nice environment. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy the food so much and the portion sizes for some of the dishes were not worth the cost of the dishes. I had to send my pork belly back as I was unable to eat it with it being so dry and chewy (the waiting staff were very understanding) my husband chicken croquettes was dry and bland but edible and Unfortunately his lamb dish was gristly and a small portion of food for the price (he ate again at home!). The staff were very pleasant but unfortunately didn't seem to be around a lot to ask for anything, which meant we waited for a while to send food back and get the bill at the end.
