The Bell, Wortwell is returning

We’re delighted to share that Jamie and Max from the village are taking over The Bell, and work will shortly begin to bring this much-loved village pub back to life.

Over the coming weeks we’ll be carrying out a thoughtful refresh of the pub, restaurant, and outdoor spaces with plans to reopen late May, early June.

Our aim is to create a warm and welcoming village pub — somewhere you can pop in for a pint, but also enjoy high-quality food.

Our chef and kitchen team are developing a menu that focuses on elevated pub dining and seasonal dishes, using quality ingredients and locally sourced products.

Alongside this we’ll be offering carefully selected drinks, including a well-chosen wine list, local ales, premium lagers and a strong spirits selection behind the bar.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you all back once again so you can help us make The Bell a pub our community can be proud of.

Over the next few weeks we’ll be sharing renovation updates, menu previews and behind-the-scenes progress, so please follow us on Facebook and on Instagram for a first look at what’s to come.

And if you see us around the village, do stop and say hello!

We can't wait to open the doors
