About The Bell

The Bell is an Ember Inn pub on Birmingham Rd in Walsall, with lunchtime and evening set menus in 2-course or 3-course options. Guests scan a QR code to order and pay from their phone. The menu includes mac and cheese and beer-battered mushrooms, and Sunday roasts are part of the offer. Ciders and a selection of other drinks are served alongside the food. The building has been extended and modernised throughout. Dogs are welcome, so regulars with a four-legged companion can bring them along.

Customer Review Summary

Food draws the most praise at The Bell, with diners calling dishes delicious and full of flavour, and a good-sized menu with deals for all tastes. The mac and cheese is singled out as tasty, and one reviewer called the three course lunchtime set menu a bargain. Close behind is the staff, described repeatedly as friendly and attentive, with servers who check in at the right moments and drinks served with a smile. Several call the atmosphere welcoming and great, even when the pub is busy. One returned after more than 30 years to find it extended and clean, and another liked the carpark. The complaints are modest but specific. The beer battered mushrooms disappointed one diner, with hardly any mushroom in the batter, and another found the music far too loud for a Sunday lunch. Two reviewers described the service as just ok. One parent noted that the kitchen made a special lunch for their daughter.
