Very tasty meals of burger and chips and chicken burger and chips, excellent beer and a very helpful and knowledgeable landlord. We were only passing through, but we will return to this area again solely on the hospitality shown to outsiders like us. Thank you very much, and see you soon 👍

We randomly found this pub on Google and decided to take a chance.
I have to say it was amazing they accommodated us at short notice and their was 10 of us.
The landlord made our experience and the food was nice and fresh.
We will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend it to anyone who would like a chilled evening.
Our 4 children enjoyed the play area and the pool table along with other games they had at the pub.

We were very excited to try The Bell & we were not disappointed! The atmosphere was very friendly from the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and shown to our table. I am gluten free and the waitresses had great knowledge of the choices on the menu that were good for me and even made some recommendations. Great menu with traditional pub favourites and some lovely specials - try the tandoori skewers for starter! The portions were generous, we had burgers and could not clear our plates. Overall excellent atmosphere, service and delicious pub grub. We will definitely return soon. Thanks for a fab evening :)Yet again our stay was wonderful. Owners are such great hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. The differently themed rooms are impeccable and luxurious. There are so many little thoughtful touches all designed to add to the comfort of guests. I personally love that the powerful shower is turned on at its entrance so you don't have to get wet! Thank you for a lovely stay guys.
This great pub is well worth a visit. Friendly with a nice atmosphere. Great background music as well as occasional live music too. Easy parking if you need it. Nice location.

Went to The Bell on a Thursday night with my family whilst on Holiday in Denver Nr Downham Market. Although the menu is not overly extensive there are some great choices and all dishes were very well cooked and really delicious. Portion sizes are good and value for money is excellent. Service was attentive, efficient and pleasant ie very good. Enjoyed our night, food and experience greatly. Give The Bell a visit, I feel it is well worth it.Owner response

Thank you for your custom and your honest feedback and we hope you. come back and visit us soon...
Hidden little Gem. Great food, great price & the landlord goes out of his way to make sure everyone gets exactly what they want. Good pint of Guinness too.
Popped in for a meal and a drink while on a weekend break at Hoseasons. I had a home made Chicken Jalfrezi and a partner had the Spaghetti Bolognese. Lovely food and the Landlord introduced himself who was off duty asking if we're happy with the service and food.
