First time there Saturday night even though have lived in Maidstone/Bearsted my whole life.
Lovely looking pub
Lovely staff
Lovely food
Only thing is I personally wouldn’t have had meal there with live music which I may add was very good.
So I will in the future eat there when no live music & drink there when there is �
Would recommend �
Love this pub. A proper drink. Cheeky bar staff lol. And live music on Friday. A great place.
Great atmosphere, with good food, good beer, friendly staff and great music. (Thanks to Jade!)
a very trendy, family fun loving pub this is. I had been here a couple of years back and seeing how far it's come is an absolute credit to Nigel and Andrea. The addiction of the pizza bar is brilliantly done and the pizzas are a must try!i didn't stay long but the time I spent there was lovely,well worth a Visit will defiantly be back.
Nigel and Andrea have done a fab job. Love the music events. Plenty of parking and the food and service brill. Def worth a visit!
What a great pub, really friendly staff, great atmosphere and great food, highly reccomend it xxx

Great decor, fantastic garden area, brilliant entertainment, fantastic food, polite & friendly staff!!
The place to go in Bearsted for sure x
Have great time with the girls food was really good atmosphere very welcoming
Visited for the 1st time today unfortunately my daughter was stung by a wasp twice, the staff went out of their way to try and help and even gave her a free ice cream, didn’t get to sample the food unfortunately this time, but will definitely be back �
Oh my Lord!!! What can I say. This will be my new favourite place to eat. Friendly staff and the food is to die for, you have to savour every mouthful. We were comparing the food to our visit to Thailand 2 years ago and would say that this was better! Went here for a late lunch today, thanks for such lovely food x
Came here for a birthday party and chose the fish cakes then chicken with cashew nuts. Very spicy but delicious food and friendly service. The bench seat in the marquee covered garden extension wasn't comfortable after 4 hours but the party people made up for it. We're going to come back again but on our own and on a normal seat next time! Recommended if you like a meal which bites back!
It was ok if you like Thai food then give it a try. It is a traditional pub with all the beers available it has a nice seated area out the back, one that is covered and one that is not,
The staff are very helpful and polite, couldn't fault them at all, the food was ok, the starters were lovely, forgot to take a photo!
For the main we had beef chilli jam with rice which was supposed to be medium but was far to hot and spicy for us, we both felt there was just something missing, it was nice but just something missing.
If someone were to say they were going I would say try it and see what you think, but personally, would not be in a rush to go back again.
Bearsted is the hub of excellent pub grub and The Bell Inn is a welcome inclusion in that clutch. It’s an old fashioned locals village pub at its heart. Care has been put into bringing its decor into the swank of the 21st century with glittery bulbs and modern art works.
Seating is comfy in the restaurant area. The Specials menu has few but excellent selections of British dishes. There is also a specials menu for the day of the week. The Bell Inn highlights their use of locally sourced beef, lamb and ham. The freshness of the ham hock and the beef stew were testament to that. The presentation of the food showed the chef cared about the dishes preparation.
Service was caring too, and humble.
The best part of the whole experience, value. This sets The Bell Inn apart from its Bearsted siblings. I will stick my neck out and say that The Bell Inn is the best value for money pub grub in Kent.
Went Friday night for the music. Didn't have food so can't rate.
Bar ladies were friendly and efficient.
Music from Keith Highfield was excellent.
Atmosphere was great.
Thoroughly enjoyable night.
The experience was brilliant and the food was excellent. Dog friendly and heaters on the outside area was brilliant. I would like to mention that the staff are excellent especially the woman that brings your food to the table. The music was good as well and it was a friday night just a brilliant start to the weekend.

Really lovely pub, great staff, cracking outdoor area and beer garden in picturesque surroundings, with loads of parking. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!
Went here for a breakfast... Staff are efficient and friendly. The food was nice but a little on the expensive side of you want a big breakfast. It's a nice little pub with a nice atmosphere. Would definitely come back here again...
Me and the Mrs went there today. The food is amazing, the best spring rolls I’ve ever had. The beer was superb, and could not fault the service. To top it off , the live music was great as well. We had a fantastic time and would recommend the pub to anyone.
Enjoy 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Strict Covid compliance. Menu extensive. Had takeaway from here before but so much better to eat in, piping hot and freshly made to order. Lovely friendly staff. Well worth a visit. Not cheap but you get what you pay for here.
