Why choose Old Bell for Christmas?
Christmas is a time for cherished traditions, and at Old Bell, we honour them in every way. From the warmest of welcomes to our carefully curated festive menu, we’re taking the (reindeer) reins this winter season. If you’re on the hunt for Christmas dinner near you, here’s why Old Bell is the perfect place to celebrate.
Festive Food and Drink
The fire’s crackling, the table is laid and our Christmas feast is about to begin.
Our Christmas dinner consists of succulent roast turkey, crispy golden potatoes, fluffy Yorkshire puds, and rich, velvety gravy. Of course, we couldn’t forget the pigs in blankets, Brussels sprouts, and indulgent festive puddings – because Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without them.
Not a turkey fan? No problem. We’ve got a delicious alternative to suit every guest, whether you fancy something different or prefer a plant-based feast. Our hearty winter vegetable and barley broth with toasted sourdough makes the perfect start, while our Lentil, Spinach and Vegetable Wellington, served with lemon and thyme hasselback potatoes, glazed root veg, sprouts and a rich balsamic gravy, is a festive treat in its own right.
The search for a Christmas Day dinner near you is over. We’ve got something for everybody, including a special Christmas menu for the little ones, so the whole family can enjoy the magic of this season together. Grown ups? Explore our festive drinks and raise a glass to good times with a seasonal tipple or a perfectly poured pint. Here’s to a Christmas well spent.
Classic Country Charm
The Christmas season is all about being together, sharing laughter and enjoying simple pleasures in good company. Our pub is complete with cheerful log fires, rustic beams and tons of cosy nooks to snuggle into.
Old Bell is the perfect hideaway in which to slow down, unwind and enjoy the most wonderful time of the year as it should be – warm, welcoming and filled with fantastic food and drink.
Christmas events and jolly gatherings
We know that Christmas is about more than just one day, it’s a season of celebration. That’s why we host a range of festive events, and when the big day is over? We’ll be open on Boxing Day too, ready to welcome you in for a hearty refuel after a countryside ramble, a quick bite or a relaxed post-Christmas drink with friends.
What foods do we traditionally eat at Christmas?
This is the season of feasting, and at Old Bell, we’re here to make sure every bite leaves you satisfied and smiling. A classic Christmas dinner will typically have succulent roasted meats, crispy potatoes, buttery veggies and a rich savoury gravy. Of course, we can’t forget the pigs in blankets, herby stuffing and a generous dollop of cranberry sauce. Yum.
But that’s not all - when it’s time for something sweet, out comes a steaming bowl of Christmas pudding, drenched in boozy brandy sauce. Not a fan? Perhaps a slice of rich, chocolatey yule log is more your cup of tea. This year, let us take care of the cooking while you enjoy every delicious moment.
