    Dean is absolutely amazing!! We loved him. The brunch was fabulous, wonderful food, lovely booze and such wicked value for the brunch. We cannot wait to come back again. 4 of us came out and we loved it so so much. Roll on next time. Dean is an asset to The Bell. This brunch is fabulous for the time we get and Dean kept the booze coming which was amazing xx

    Went for our first time to the Bell, and absolutely loved it! We had bottomless brunch, the food was delicious! A wide range of cocktails and beers for the bottomless, staff checked on us all the time if we needed more as well as complimentary Prosecco in the table! On top of it all the staff were really sweet, welcoming and friendly, so nice to see people enjoying their job! would highly recommend! ❤️😍

    Myself and family came to the bell for a bottomless brunch, we were greeted and initially served by Jazz who is amazing. She has served us a few times before and never fails to impress. We later started to be served by Jazz and Darcey. Between the two girls they are both lovely and amazing servers. We never went a moment without a drink in our hands as they are very attentive. They make the experience a million times better every single time. Make sure you come here, not just for food and drink, but for the amazing staff !!!

    I've been here three weeks in a row. First two weeks, decent beer and ok food, if rather expensive for what you get. This week however I was extremely disappointed with the service. I ordered a slightly different beer which was not in the happy hour offer. This of course was not advertised anywhere and when I asked for a different beer at the happy hour prices, this was rejected. This is remarkably short sighted as I then didn't order any food as I have done previously. Furthermore, I'll go elsewhere from now on, for example the dog and duck, where the staff are much more friendly.

    Overpriced beers, good staff, and the wings were a bit dodgy. Good for sports and an okay Guinness, but wouldn't get food again
