Ring 'O' Bells

Voted Chester's Best Pub at the Chester Food and Drink Awards, the Ring O' Bells is located in the…read moreheart of the pretty village of Christleton near Chester, one of Cheshire's most beautiful. The pub is a shining example of a 21st Century country pub. New meets old & contemporary meets traditional in a relaxed environment where everyone can enjoy the very best in food and drink.

The Ring O'Bells is a lovely little pub tucked away next to the imposing Parish Church of St…read moreElphin's, at the end of Church Street. It's easy to find, as St Elphin's 280ft spire - the third highest of any parish church in England - provides a perfect landmark. The pub is part of an attractive clutch of old buildings next to the church, and is Grade II Listed, although unfortunately there's a large Sainsbury's plonked opposite. Inside, it feels more like a country pub than a town pub: lots of tucked away seating areas (ideal for family or social groups) give it a cosy feel, with some old beams on the ceiling providing the right atmosphere. Real ale fans are well catered for with two regulars and three guest ales, although one of the latter was off on our visit. The food menu is extensive and features traditional pub grub, with main meals, baguettes, sandwiches and baked potatoes. There's a good vegetarian selection, too, and staff were friendly and helpful. The 10 minute walk to the pub from Warrington Town Centre passes several other old pubs, also serving real ale, on Buttermarket Street and Church Street, which would make for a perfect real ale pub crawl, ending at the Ring O'Bells. There's a bus stop a few yards away to get you back to the bus station, if needed!

It turned out that the rave that I was going to didn't start until 3:00 pm, but I caught the bus…read morethat took me there at 10:00 am, which wasn't too bad because it meant I could go for a wander and visit some pubs that I wouldn't normally be able to visit, such as this one. It is a rather quiet English pub out in the country, with the rather charming interior that you would expect from a lot of these pubs. However, it also has a huge beer garden, which is delightful in summer, though I do have to admit that I've really only been in England during the summer so I haven't exactly experienced the worst that weather has to offer. Still, yeah, it's a rather nice pub.

I was at the Hatton Arms last night for my cousin's 18th birthday with all the family. What a…read morelovely pub! It's set just outside the charming village of Stockton Heath and has that country pub feel without having to venture too far from civilisation. The bar stocks some good ales but I opted for Old Mout Cider, a fruity little number that was perhaps a bit too easy to drink, hence a sore head this morning. There's a lovely beer garden out the back with picnic tables, parasols and plenty of grass space for kids to run around. Staff are friendly and the locals seem like decent folk ( I certainly didn't spot any track suits, which is always a good sign). Food wise, we were treated to a delicious buffet of Thai fish cakes, chicken wings, salad and pulled pork, which was delicious. So judging by this, I would imagine their everyday food menu is pretty good too.

This place was pretty packed, but then again since there is an off ramp from the motorway into the…read morecarpark that probably shouldn't have surprised me. Well, actually, I entered through the back way, along the quiet country lane. Yeah, it was quite nice, though it did have a more commercial feel than some of the other country pubs that I had visited that day. The outdoor area is adjacent to the carpark, but the beer selection was still nice. Yeah, it did have some charm about it, despite it being pretty busy.

We came here after visiting friends, this was a wonderful pub with a real working fire!…read more Finding a spot next to it we chose a Sunday dinner I had the trio of meats and my partner the pork belly variant. To drink I settled on a strawberry lemonade to rehydrate. The calories on the menu did dishearten me my trio was apparently near the 2k mark but when I mentally dissected it I could not equate to that number..yes I find it triggering so made sure I ate only half of it lol The portion was generous, massive Yorkshire, pork cracking, beef, pork belly and chicken, With a roasted whole carrot, parsnip, broccoli and potatoes. We did ask for more gravy as advertised! Everything was cooked beautifully and the service was genuine. Overall apart from the menus which I still think they should offer people different versions of aka one with calories and one without I really enjoyed my experience here and would come back!

This is a very pleasant and welcoming community pub. We went in as complete strangers and enjoyed…read moreevery minute spent there as the staff and the local customers were friendly. The beers served are all the usual; Guinness, 1664 lager, Strongbow etc. but, as it is a Holt's pub, there is quite a selection of real ales with four handpumps, all different ales. There are also two large Holt's dispensers which appear to be for keg Holt's. The wines and spirits selection seems to be quite comprehensive. From 12 noon until 8pm food is served from a select, but interesting menu at very reasonable prices. During these times, also, children are allowed in, provided they are supervised the few in during our visit were very well behaved. The furniture and decor is impressively welcoming, clean and fairly new-looking with some different pictures rural landscapes and similar, rather than the usual fake antiques. The bar has a large screen tv with Sky Sports available and there is a partially separate pool room. The beer garden is quite a size, with plenty of seating at picnic tables and is mostly paved, but with a small grassed area. The car park is large enough to cater for almost the whole area and has a dedicated row of spaces for disabled next to the entrance doors. For those, like myself, who prefer not to have to drive, three local bus routes stop very close (Shetland Close bus-stop).

Brilliant local with friendly staff and down to earth polite friendly punters. Good choice of ale…read morelove the crystal lager. Highly recommend for all the family.
