The Old Bell Hotel in Derby

A genuine antique gem; this place has old world charm, good beer and smart professional staff.

Beautiful period features inside and out, with a good seating arrangement. Friendly enough service and a bang average selection of beers. Refreshingly un-rowdy on a Saturday afternoon - great spot for a quiet pint and a book or a laptop.

The most tasty Sunday Lunch at this friendly 1650 Tudor pub in Derby. Thanks to Craig who pleasantly and proudly showed us around this gorgeous pub. Thanks to the staff, the 2 other Craig’s, Alex and special gratitude to an amazing Chef Carly. Definitely will recommend this Traditional Food Pub .

Great night at Night at the Musicals! I booked this having no idea what to expect but we were not disappointed. Amazing singing just like being in the West End!

Friendly staff! I went for a party and it was really nice, no hassle with food or drinks and everything was served on time. I'd definitely visit again.

it was packed when we first got there so thought wow must be a good pub,waited ages for a drink only to realise all the people that where there was the people like us waiting for the murder event night to begin,when we came out of the back room at the half way break the pub was dead and when it finished at 10pm it was dead,so we werent gonna stay for another drink in a dead pub 🤷‍♀️,and altho they advertised cocktails my cousin asked for one and he told her he can't make one right now as there too busy 😅😆😅😆,when she turned and told me this i was like what, "you can't do a cocktail right now!" He looked at us both and said its busy but then said ohh ok ill do ya one 😆😆,well yeh i think ya should there are places out there packed all the time doing 10 cocktails at a time 🙄🙈 and its ya job!!!!!!

Beautiful Sunday roast service was excellent a slight mix up with order was notice and fixed straight away. Plus extra veg and gravy brought promptly. We arrived early and were still accommodated even though we were waiting for the rest of our party. Thank you

Very nice place and choice of drinks, but not keen on the way the peanuts are served, out of a jar into a bowl. Tasted stale. Not very hygienic or covid safe. Next time it will just be drinks only.

Went on a Sunday 2pm the roast beef was that chewy I couldn’t chew it. You get one cereal bowl of veg between nine people which was no where near enough asked if there was anymore veg coming? Was told we would have to pay extra even though we paid £15.No condiments on the table, but it was clean that’s why I gave it a one star. Poor service and very poor meal.

This is one of my son's and his partner's favourite pubs in Derby. (This is my second visit.) I can see why they like it so much. The building has lots of character both inside and out. The door staff are very friendly. The seating is very comfortable. It doesn't seem to get too noisy or overcrowded based on my 2 visits. My only criticism was of the ladies toilets: the toilet seat of the cubicle I first entered was completely loose and dangerous! It may have happened that evening and I'm sure they will have fixed it by now.
