The Bell Inn - Rickinghall

First visit & we were greeted well on entering & service was excellent & food was tasty , well presented & good value .

A busy day for the staff. They were one person short of beign able to provide a decent level of service. Empty plates left on the table for ages, we eventually cleared them to one side, and had to go to the bar get drinkls ordered. We opted against as desert because we feared such a long wait. The staff working were all very good so I guess the owners clearly had got the staffing numbers wrong.

Have been to the Bell Inn several times for Sunday lunch and food is always very good. The staff are always very welcoming and helpful.

The food and service was absolutely superb as always . Staff were brilliant.

Very nice evening food was very good .service very good

First visit. Great food American family impressed Shame there was no American pancakes available

Amazing food, great menu choices and great service as always.

This was not the usual pub dining experience as all the dishes were clearly cooked from scratch on site. The food was imaginative, beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Service was excellent too.

had a lovley meal staff fantastic only two of them worked wellsee you again

Great as always, good friendly service and delicious quality food.

Service and food was amazing as per usual rustic steak was food heaven

Lovely food, staff and atmosphere 👌 would recommend for a family meal or as a romantic dinner

Great food and service as always. Good for any occasion

Consistently welcoming and professional staff front of house and top quality, freshly cooked, well presented and piping hot food from the kitchen. They go about their craft with well practiced efficiency at this lovely inn. It is a joy both to stay and and eat there.

Having booked a table for four online we were greeted and served by two young very pleasant staff and had a lovely lunchtime meal. A very nice atmosphere as more customers entered and the food was great.

Food was amazing, staff were really kind and helpful! Would deffo recommend :)

Lovely steak meal, quick and friendly service as always. Lots of choice on the menu

Very warm welcome, once we were actually seen to. The staff were very pre-occupied and almost seemed as if they didn't see us standing at the bar. At one point, they walked from behind the bar even though we were stood there waiting - our plates and glasses were not cleared after lunch for a good hour and when we went in to pay, again the staff ignored we were there. Once acknowledged the staff were really lovely so it was a shame to have that negative associated. As a slight side, our carrots were raw and potatoes dry. Otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed the beef roast - the gravy was particularly delicious!

First visit to the Bell Inn for Sunday lunch. Food was amazing. Our overall experience was excellent.

Great service , great food , the Sunday lunch was amazing and the steak pies to die for Will definitely be back for more Thank you for a lovely Sunday afternoon guys

Good food, lovely ambience, desserts are lovely as well, nothing was rushed even tho the pub was busy

Service was great….. Food was amazing would be great if there was a touch more variety in the mains menu but I understand why not

Perfect dishes with a great atmosphere 👌 always return here and the same each time

Lovely breakfast, good choice, freshly cooked. Lovely and friendly staff. Dog friendly, also they serve lunch and dinner.

Fantastic food, the roast beef was outstanding. Will be returning.

Good food wine and beer with plenty of choice. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Only issue was the deliciously tempting Eton mess pannacotta had all gone.

Lovely staff and food and easy booking will visit again

Yummy food as always. Great service and a nice atmosphere

Lovely venue, great service and food. Recommend! Will visit again

We went for a family members birthday. Lovely tasty food, served hot from a varied menu. Plus nice choice of desserts and beers.

Disappointing. The food was rather bland and overcooked and the waiting times were long. To be fair, the restaurant was busy and they were short staffed but we had booked in advance so expected good service.

Fantastic food and attentive service. A really lovely welcoming atmosphere.

Plated food not hot enough. Sea Bream dish rather sparse on vegetables. Would have liked a choice of custard or cream with puddings.Relaxing atmosphere though.

Lovely, friendly staff, beautiful, tasty food What should have been a relaxing bank holiday meal was ruined by people who insist that I want to spend my time with screaming brats

Pub rang to rebook as there was a technical glitch, easily sorted, lovely atmosphere and good service, food was lovely, staff very patient with the 2 kids and the dog, so a lovely Sunday family lunch

Me and my wife spent the day and night at the bell inn,the food in the evening was the best we have had in a pub for a couple of years,the staff very pleasant and helpful,the bed was very comfortable and a quite night.

Good service, nice atmosphere and great food and beer. Highly recommend.

We've had a couple of recent let downs at food venues and so we were sceptical about coming (although we had been 5 years previous). You have definately restored my faith in eating out and having great food! Thank you :)

Friendly, attentive service from front of house server Freddie. Good choice of options gluten free. Sea bream particularly tasty. Pecan pudding, a nice alternative to sticky toffee.

Fish and chips were good, service was fine. Kids food served on boiling hot plates and with adult cutlery, the kids colouring books and pens etc could do with a refresh. The playground was quite basic. Overall we felt it was a bit pricey but had a nice meal.

Excellent roast dinner, great staff and service. Perfect hangover cure!

This pub is the most amazing place for drinks and food. We love summertime here and we also love winter here. Just had an amazing Sunday roast and drinks. Food is beautiful and the staff are so attentive and assertive. We try and come every week.

Always good food and good service too. Would recommend to anyone

Lovely atmosphere, lovely Staff and very nice food , will go again

Pork not cooked and fatty potatoes tasted old husband was sick could have been the beer not great

Excellent as always, quick service and good tasty food too

Really good food, excellent service even when it is busy

Lovely roast dinner with family. Great value and service all round

It’s was for a Mothers Day lunch and I enjoyed it very much. The food was delicious, the Bell was incredibly popular and really packed but service didn’t suffer as a result. The gift of a little plant was a lovely idea! Thank you very much.

Really tasty roast. Care taken over the preparation and presentation of meal.
