The Bell Inn

The experience was brilliant and the food was excellent. Dog friendly and heaters on the outside area was brilliant. I would like to mention that the staff are excellent especially the woman that brings your food to the table. The music was good as well and it was a friday night just a brilliant start to the weekend.

It was ok if you like Thai food then give it a try. It is a traditional pub with all the beers available it has a nice seated area out the back, one that is covered and one that is not, The staff are very helpful and polite, couldn't fault them at all, the food was ok, the starters were lovely, forgot to take a photo! For the main we had beef chilli jam with rice which was supposed to be medium but was far to hot and spicy for us, we both felt there was just something missing, it was nice but just something missing. If someone were to say they were going I would say try it and see what you think, but personally, would not be in a rush to go back again.

Came here for a birthday party and chose the fish cakes then chicken with cashew nuts. Very spicy but delicious food and friendly service. The bench seat in the marquee covered garden extension wasn't comfortable after 4 hours but the party people made up for it. We're going to come back again but on our own and on a normal seat next time! Recommended if you like a meal which bites back!

Oh my Lord!!! What can I say. This will be my new favourite place to eat. Friendly staff and the food is to die for, you have to savour every mouthful. We were comparing the food to our visit to Thailand 2 years ago and would say that this was better! Went here for a late lunch today, thanks for such lovely food x

Bearsted is the hub of excellent pub grub and The Bell Inn is a welcome inclusion in that clutch. It’s an old fashioned locals village pub at its heart. Care has been put into bringing its decor into the swank of the 21st century with glittery bulbs and modern art works. Seating is comfy in the restaurant area. The Specials menu has few but excellent selections of British dishes. There is also a specials menu for the day of the week. The Bell Inn highlights their use of locally sourced beef, lamb and ham. The freshness of the ham hock and the beef stew were testament to that. The presentation of the food showed the chef cared about the dishes preparation. Service was caring too, and humble. The best part of the whole experience, value. This sets The Bell Inn apart from its Bearsted siblings. I will stick my neck out and say that The Bell Inn is the best value for money pub grub in Kent.
