The Blue Bell Inn - Leicester

Food was delicious will definitely be back when next in the area Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Sunday lunch 2 weeks ago. Initially staff very good..taking drinks order, then food orders. 2nd round of drinks took much too long to arrive. Meals also took a long time to be served. Sunday roast beef dinner very disappointing at £20 ! needs to improve substantially to warrant that price. On our table, best meals were Nut Roast, Fish and Chips, Beef Burger. Although all were overpriced. 3rd drinks, had to ask 3 times, was told bar had a lot of orders? Sweets ..Crumble OK, Toffee pudding Sponge dry. Overall Very disappointed and expensive.

Not impressed really.After a 13 hour shift I just wanted a good steak (med- well done) and it was solid and for just shy of £40 for a steak a few chips which was swimming in grease and 1 pint wasn't up to scratch so it's a place I won't be going again Price per person: £30–40 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 1

We have just had probably the worst possible meal given that we had invited our friend from the north for dinner here. The calamari was 7 no bigger than hoola hoop size pieces in a very bland sauce weren’t crispy as advertised and basically exemely disappointing. The prawn cocktail was very overpriced 2 large prawns and a scattering of of broken shrimps. The pie had 3 pieces of meat half an inch square and pastry like the sole of a shoe. The chips were pre cooked pro so the day before rock hard) the tiny portion of coleslaw had a skin over the top they were that old. The base of one of the burgers was burnt and had obviously been scraped! And the meat was dry and overcooked. The ketchup was tiny and waters down. When my friend remonstrated with the waitress she looked so battlescarred and weary that we stopped and felt for her. We left never to return!!!
