My first time to have a drink here in The Bell Inn.
By the road, so harrd to miss.
Filled with ornaments that adorn the place and gave it a very rustic old vibe.
Had my very first neck oil drink and it was surprisingly good.
Foodwise, their chish and fip got me. No, I am not drunk typing this review. Check the menu, I am uploading it with some other photos. Anyways, very good portion size and it made me really happy. Simple and classic buut done properly. 😊
Service-wise. The lady who took our orders individually was very good and separated our orders so we paid individually.
She made our life easier.
They accept card payments.
They have a loo.
Good seating placements.

Great pub. Welcoming staff. Just a straightforward friendly pub. No pretentions just an honest pub. Closest to the festival theatre. Always a buzz after the shows are finished.Very often the actors will be having a deserved drink after their shows.

Proper old school pub with a good atmosphere and friendly staff. Beer selection nice enough, but shame only "best" bitters on hand pump.

My daughter and I visited this lovely, cosy pub before a matinee at the Chichester Festival Theatre. The menu choices were varied and delicious, the welcome we received was warm and friendly and service exemplary. Will definitely visit again next time we are in Chichester!

Traditional pub opposite the Festival Theater which can be busy before and after shows. Popular with locals as well as visitors. Changing selection of three or four well kept ales usually available on tap.

We’ve just had a fabulous meal here. Great service, lovely home cooked food and finished in plenty of time for the theatre performance without feeling rushed. Whilst it seemed to be a small pub, it means they’re customer service focused and efficient. Our first time here but definitely won’t be our last! Glad the rugby was being shown in the pubs in the town otherwise we would never have found this little gem.

As an American, this was the very first pub that I went to where it truly had the feel of a local pub. The people here were great and the owner had a spicy pepper garden in the back porch with SUPER-SPICY peppers which was great!
The Beer: Yes. The beer was good and the glasses were clean.
The Servers: Very attentive and very quick.
The Ambiance: Really warm and cozy with great and comfortable seating.
