What User doesn't like about The Bell Inn:
Visited today for our son’s birthday treat whilst at Uni. Pub has good atmosphere but food lets it down. Do not order fish chips, under cooked but batter rock hard. Sent back and after Mins later still the same and by then lost...interest! They did not charge for it but spoilt what we had hoped would be a nice lunch. Staff friendly and helpful but really need to get food sorted. Sorry won’t be returning View all feedback. What User likes about The Bell Inn:
brilliant pub, like a tardis inside, great atmosphere friendly staff, very educational from lord byron to oliver cromwell. founded with history, definitely visit again, View all feedback.

Nice quaint pub, clean and spacious, but with a cosy vibe. Good range of beers too. Would definitely recommend it for a quiet pint.

I particularly liked how the pub was broken down into various rooms and sections. Found a nice quiet spot to read. Pint was good too!

The Bell Inn in Nottingham offers a historic atmosphere with delicious food like Chicken Sharer Platter and Katsu Burger. The pub, established in 1463, impresses with friendly staff and prompt service. For those looking to soak up the local history, this establishment is a must-visit. Despite some minor issues with food temperature in the past, recent experiences have been positive, with attentive service and overall pleasant ambiance. Whether enjoying a drink in the Tudor bar or seated in the central outdoor area, guests are sure to appreciate the charm and character of this establishment.

Saturday with a group of 12 in belfry restaurant. we have been fed by vicki great service as always eating very well.great relaxing meal all happy.

Excellent traditional English pub. with good eating and inviting environment.

Nice place with a lot of character. Staff friendly and accommodating. My wife and kids loved their meals but I had the steak pie and wasn't too impressed.

Amazing place. When I stepped in the atmosphere catched me. The food is good, the beer is nice and cold, the service spot on. I will definitelly go back soon.
