Lunch We normally go to one of their other pubs nearby but that was taken over by a big concern. Since they took over the pub it has had extensive renovations including a beautiful outside beer garden and a lovely Orangery dining room. The menu has a diverse range of casual pub favourites with seasonal menu updates. For starters we chose King Prawn Cocktail - £10 Smoked Salmon Mousse, Toasted Sourdough. Not the usual way of serving as it was all served on a plate. BBQ Cajun Pork Belly Bites £9 Pineapple & Chilli Salsa. What made this dish was the delious sauce on the pork belly. Both dishes were topped with the dreaded pea shoots. Which adds nothing to the taste and is just decoration. Main courses were Steak Frites - £17 6oz Top Rump with Fries & Peppercorn Sauce. A pub classic which was very nice. Oh and topped off with pea shoots🤣 Can't remember ordering salad? Baked Salmon Fillet - £20.90 On a bed of creamy spinach & Smoked Salmon Spaghetti, Fresh dill. Oh,you guessed it pea shoots. The salmon was cooked perfect and the sauce with the pasta was delicious. The food was pleasant enough but nothing to write home about and yet here we are.🤣 With such a large menu for the kitchen to cater for it has been said by others,can be a bit hit and miss on occasion. But our visit on a quiet lunchtime was pretty good. The pub is a lovely place to visit if you fancy a drink and maybe something to eat. They do fresh pizzas to order in a proper pizza oven. You can even dine in their outside garden rooms when the weather is fine. The staff were friendly and very accomodating.

I’ve driven past here many times and still meaning to go we finally went yesterday and the food did not disappoint. The flavours and taste was very nice. Was really impressed with starters and mains. Children menu was also very nice soup was a little on the peppery side for kids but was nice. The espresso martini was nice and the outdoor seating which we didn’t get to use was quite unique and a nice touch will try it out next time. Will definitely be visiting again as it’s so close and location was great.

We really enjoyed our visit to the Bluebell! I'd seen a photo of the steak frites online and felt like I had to go and try them! I was not disappointed - we both really enjoyed our mains, and the puddings were incredible too. I'd definitely recommend visiting if you're nearby.

Beautiful food, good service, lovely setting. Both the whitebait starter and beef bourguignon pictured were gluten free and delicious!
