The New Blue Bells Inn in Hartlepool

Had two beautiful meals 10/10 complement to the chef, staff very friendly and surroundings decor very nice

Visited this place for Sunday lunch. The actual Inn is unremarkable, outdated and dirty in places. However, the food was tasty with crispy vegetables, although the green peas were bone cold.I enjoyed the lunch, and asked the waitress if I could take all the left overs home.. this included yorkshire pudding.The waitress took it upon herself to bin everything apart from the veg??? When asked where the yorkshire pudding was I was told in the bin as it was soggy. It had been un touched. No apology giving or offer of replacement. Therefore I have given 2 stars for bad customer service..

Great food lovely staff Sunday dinner ia amazing

This pub has a menu and quality of food to match much more expensive restaurants. The staff are really friendly and no problems getting a table. It is also in a great location and highly recommend to anyone travelling up the A19 to stop here for food rather than at one of the places at Wolviston Services.

5 star as usual . Always happy when been to the bells... food amazing ... staff can't do enough very friendly. Nice stocked bar .def recommend x

Sunday Dinner - Various meat dinners.Pros - large size dinner at a great price, food was nice and presented well. nice deserts presented well.Cons - yorkshire puddings were tough on the day we arrived. Struggled to cut them up. The cheese sauce they use on the veg was more like nacho cheese. Would recommend using a more creamy sauce for a dinner. The decor isnt the best very cafe vibe inside. Although still clean.Overall it was a great experience just a few small issues.Would visit again 100%.3 large dinners, 3 small kids dinners and 6 desserts. 1 lemonade 3 fruit shoots all for £71.00. Worth the money as i thought it was fairly cheap.

Sunday lunch was worst I've had, everything overcooked and tasteless , puddings so hard unable to cut them, when asked for fresh one told they are all too hard because they had been left in the oven too long, no apology or offer of alternative. Complete waste of money as it was inedible

Food is canny but the place was freezing cold and devoid of any atmosphere when I ate here. Its been a difficult time for restaurants but this place seems to have really suffered. The decor and furniture etc is really quite grim.If you want to grab a good parmo and be on your way without having a 'dining experience' then this might be ok.I've had takeaway from here before and it was very good food.

Perfect food, perfect service, love this place
