Blue Bell Inn - Peterborough

We recently celebrated our wedding anniversary at Bluebell and had a fantastic experience. The food was exceptional, the staff were attentive and caring, and there was nothing negative we could find to fault. The waitress in particular took great care of our party, including the children. Thank you, Bluebell, we will definitely be returning! - Richard and the Devine family

We made a reservation for the first seating at 12:30pm for Sunday lunch and were promptly seated at noon. We ordered the roast beef and roast lamb in the standard plate size instead of a small portion. We were pleasantly surprised by the generous amount and high quality of the meat, as well as the freshly prepared side dishes. For dessert, we chose the profiteroles and rhubarb crumble, both of which were delicious and generously portioned. The restaurant had a cozy pub atmosphere, with well-spaced and screened tables for a comfortable and pleasant dining experience. Overall, it was a wonderful meal, made even more special by the warm welcome and attentive service of Michaela. Thank you for a memorable dining experience!

I was thoroughly impressed by the afternoon tea at this restaurant. The selection included a wide variety of freshly made sandwiches, quiche, sausage rolls, and mozzarella sticks, followed by a generous fruit scone, lemon drizzle cake, rocky road, carrot cake, and a delicious profiterole. The amount of food provided was unbelievable, all of good quality and very tasty. Despite not being able to finish the tea, we were offered 'doggy bags' so nothing went to waste. And all of this for just £14! It was truly amazing value. The staff were also attentive and friendly. I highly recommend this place!

Having booked for the meal we was informed that there was only two time slots left but we experienced that there was only 3 tables occupied during the whole evening, so a bit confused about that one. Ordered our main meals and waited over 45 minutes for them to arrive which was a bit of a joke with the amount of people in there. The fish and chips meal was ok but the chips being triple cooked we’re on the verge of being burnt. The chicken meal was also a bit tough but edible. We decided to have a dessert and all I can say is don’t go for the apple pie as the portion which is supposed to be a large one was pathetic for the price. The sticky toffee pudding was very nice though and twice the size of the a-pole pie. We have decided not to go there anymore as there are other restaurants in the village and surrounding area that does better than this. Came away some what dissatisfied but hey ho.

An ok local pub but not family friendly. No changing facilities for babies or toddlers and very sexist too as only women can change nappies which is on a small section next to the sinks covered in water under a hand dryer. Not good at all. When asked staff about changing facilities was told they haven’t got anything yet. Pub has been run by same owners for years so not sure when this ‘yet’ actually is. Disappointing to say the least and a but disgusted really for a local village pub.
