"I wish we had read the reviews on this place before booking ! I was convinced that we were being filmed for one of those ever thing going wrong tv programmers. Check in went ok. Wasn’t able to call us a taxi to the races , but hey we can do that Returned from a great day out as a group of 8 for diner and drinks 6/8 were also booked in for overnight stay. Owners arguing aggressively in the bar with customers , slightly awkward. Ordered a round of drinks, and not able to have a tab ! Moved 2 stools to all sit together in the bar and told we couldn’t do that as was sitting in a fire escape route...not usually a problem when they have a tribute act on, but hey, told off and put back. Asked when table would be ready and told we hadn’t got a table..we had booked earlier that day. In the end she said well ok I suppose we can ! Come through here..through we went to her pride and joy of a plastic hanging garden of Babylon ! After explaining to us that it had taking *ucking boxes land *ucking boxes of deliveries from amazon to deliver we got seated ! Nope no cameras visible yet Ordered 2 courses each..waitress came back and said, no we don’t have 4 of those items , re choose. Starters arrived . Mains then arrived well 6/8 arrived ! Waited and waited and nothing...asked where our meal was and told hadn’t ordered! We had confirmed the order and waitress had re read it back. At this point very aggressive owner came out fing and jeffing at us, arguing and shouting.! Couple behind us had waited 20 minutes for there diner and just got up and left . Other couple sent back steak meal as not what was ordered. Another guest found cabbage on his steak! Enough was enough , so we asked for bill...manager thought he was doing us a favor not charging for the meals we hadn’t had ! Then the 2 meals arrived !!! Shouting and intimidatingly he then said just forget it. I will keep your breakfast money and go. The owners here need to go on a customer service course, avoid at all costs! The fact that we didn’t eat that night and didn’t also have a pre paid breakfast made us £32 out of pocket and having to walk 15 minutes up the road for food. I have contacted the establishment direct but they have not responded. The accommodation is fine , but avoid the pub at all cost"

Had the most fabulous roast today at the Bell in Kentford. Service was spot on and there was so much delicious food. This will now be my regular Sunday lunch venue. Well done!

The pub serves delicious, homemade meals that stand out from the typical mass-produced food found in many other pubs. All five of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals and highly recommend trying the waffles, which were exceptional.

Fantastic Sunday roast and really lovely staff. We came across this place purely by chance but will definitely go back and highly recommend. The food was great and the portions huge! The staff were so friendly too. We came away happy, full and with a smile.

The service is excellent and the food is fantastic. It's a perfect spot to relax or hang out with friends. If you ever find yourself in the area, I highly recommend taking some time for yourself to enjoy the atmosphere and the welcoming staff. Thank you Sheena and David for a wonderful dining experience.

I arrived at the agreed time (ie between 5 and 6PM), but the pub was closed. No one answered the door, nor the phone. I eventually spoke with a fellow guest who suggested I try the estate agent next door! But that was closed too. When I eventually checked in I was told that inspite of what it said in the room and on booking.com breakfasts were to being served, not even if pre-arranged. I felt most unwelcome, a hostile atmosphere.

The service was shocking, not enough staff, They were still cleaning the next room at 13.15pm it was noisy. When we finally got to order, we had to wait 45 mins, for two meals which were expensive and tasteless, not worth the cost. Another so swamped in gravy, it was impossible to eat without a spoon! Plus one dish was supposed to have cashew nuts and did not have one! I would not recommend eating there, Sunday lunch must be a nightmare, they cannot cope with 3 tables with two persons on each, let alone several tables with families.

My partner and I booked a room at the Bell Inn for an overnight stay while we were in town for a race meeting at Newmarket. We were given room 1 on the first floor, which was incredibly spacious, clean, and modern. There was plenty of storage space for longer stays and the furnishings were high quality. The bathroom was great, with a bath and shower. Our only issue was figuring out how to use the remote to lower the TV back into the bed frame at the foot of the bed. The evening meal and breakfast were also delicious. We definitely plan on staying here again in the future. Speisekarte ansehen

The Bell Inn is an attractive building suited in a convenient location close to Newmarket. We ate in the restaurant and enjoyed our meal and the staff were friendly and efficient. Unfortunately the rest of our stay was very disappointing; There was no breakfast available this was not made clear to us when booking. There was no check out we were told to leave our key in the door of our room. The room was not cleaned to an acceptable standard and the toilet was soiled under the seat. There was no hot water and we therefore had to have cold showers in the morning, For the price of £140 this was not good value.

Firstly I would like to say that the rooms were amazing. They were clean, well stocked and you can tell that they are cleaned with great attention to detail. The staff that were cleaning the rooms were very polite and helpful when i needed an iron and ironing board. The grounds were clean and tidy, the plants were all well watered and at first glance the place gives off a feeling of a good countryside vibe as my wife would say. However.. The place is let down by the other half of the business. When the bar eventually opened at 6pm we were greeted not by happy smiling staff but by a busy, obviously understaffed gentleman who didn 't seem too happy to be serving customers. Due to staffing issu...

"We were here for a family reunion on Fathers Day. I was going to give 3 stars but having had no response to 2 feedback emails that I sent I have downgraded it. This is the honest feedback that I sent: I’d like to thank you for your help in putting our family meet together. We were pleased with the comfort and ambience of the area where we were sat. We also felt the staff were pleasant and courteous. The meals and the drinks received a mixed feedback. We felt that the vegetables and sauces were very good although a group of 4 were given a small dish of green vegetables to share. Some time later a request for more green vegetables was dealt with but the timing was not good. The fish and chips were commonly well received. I’m afraid that the other aspects of food and drink and most importantly ORGANISATION were poor. When we arrived a waiter came over to take orders of the people that had not placed an advanced order. 2 people at one end of the table asked about the ordered drinks and had to say what they ordered and their order was delivered. I was a little concerned that 2 coffees ordered for the sweets of Peter and Jenny were bought with those 2 drinks but they seemed OK with taking them then and despite all the complaints in this email I don’t want to find fault. At my end of the table the waiter told me that he would come to me with my order but he must have forgotten. Starters were brought for those few that ordered them and a waitress eventually came through to enquire if everyone was OK. I said me and my wife were still waiting for our drinks order. After another 10 minutes someone cam back with the 2 decaf flat whites that we ordered for the end of the meal. Unfortunately the waiter, who was clearly distressed to be told to take them back and bring the correct drinks order, wished to engage with me in a disagreement about where the fault for this lay in front of all my family. This did upset me. Eventually my ale and my wife’s wine was delivered to us – it had taken over 90 minutes to arrive and both the ale was tainted and the red wine not pleasant. In addition the 2 pre ordered drinks were brought for a second time! The poor organisation also meant the meals did not arrive in good time. After nearly 2 hours most people had not had a bite to eat. The meat was very poor. The beef was inedible (very tough) and the poor standards of both meats was fed back to a waitress. By the time that sweets arrived staff was particularly flustered. The sweets came so late that 3 of the people that had ordered ice creams had to leave to catch their train. Again our drinks were forgotten so I asked for the 2 decaf flat whites. These were eventually brought but they were luke warm. My wife felt embarrassed for the staff so she drunk hers anyway as she did not want another accusatory conversation in front of our group. I had to ask for mine to be replaced as I felt that it was unpleasant. That concludes my feedback although I should say that there were other deficiencies. You have been warned!"
