This restaurant has changed name to The Green and has a different menu from what is shown on the Open Table app. Nevertheless food is good and good value for money for sure.

Moved to the neighbourhood recently and love the fact The Bell is so close. Been several times now and enjoy it. My only small criticsm is stock control could be better. Every time we've been they always seem to have run out of something. With all the new builds being built it's going to be a busy pub. Staff are very friendly and are hard workers. Great place for a bite to eat and a drink.
