    Went last night despite my reservations mainly to let the young un loose in the play area.</p>

    Poor, overpriced fodder even for a chain establishment.</p>

    I had heard some on here recommend it, I can only thinkthey must have low expectations.</p>

    Another group next to us had to complain and got some money back. I'll vote with my feet and never return.</p>

    Well I have kept warning you...

    The Bluebell is to pubs what Willie Ferry is to football.

    I think most Restraunts have off days.....

    went to The Grill in town after glowing reports from friends, and, it was awful, poor sevice, food bland and not enough for the price we paid,same as you I won't be going back.

    Yes I went, some time ago admittedly. I decided to have the mixed grill. I have honestly never seen a plate of food as big. It came on a huge silver tray, I kid you not. Definitely not for the faint hearted but excellent quality
