Nestled in the quaint market town of Staines-upon-Thames in Northwest Surrey, The Bells is the perfect village escape for both locals and passing city goers. Our traditional pub offers rustic country charm, fused with cosy corners and alfresco dining to enjoy with the whole family.
Whether sipping a refreshing cocktail in our courtyard and soaking in the summer rays or indulging in our renowned Sunday roast next to the fire inside, you’ll feel at home and catered for any time of year.
The waiter Oscar is really good and very welcoming.

The bell? The worst pub in Staines?
Shoddy.. to say the least. If you are thinking of visiting the bell for meal, make sure you Alow 2 hours for food service. We visited for ‘long distance family meal’ as we have done for many years. On arrival our orders were taken. The service staff couldn’t have messed it more up if they tried. After 2 hours Main meals were served before starters, children’s meal (which were requested to come out with starters) came out STONE last and cold! Dishes had components missing. We then watched the last 2 dishes to be served (burgers) sit on the hot tray for 10 minutes, before we asked if they were ours. When we approached the manager TOM. And asked why our meals had been sat there, he got very up tight RUDE and then started lying! Saying the burgers had just been prepared. And that we must have imagined it! How a guy like this can run a pub is beyond me, no customer service. No general service. Apparently they were surprised with the booking size 10 people? I would normally understand but they’re was only 1 more table in the hole pub eating! Which by the way also got sick of waiting and paid for they’re drinks and left. Absolutely shocking! This pub won’t last long. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME
The Anglers Retreat in Staines, is much better. Visit there.

Went for a family lunch on a weekday. Service was great, the place is large, not overloaded, we felt good. There is a terrace as well.
Good was good! I recommend

Unbelievably difficult to get served although it wasn’t busy, not change so cash was useless. Food is awful and very, very overpriced and compulsory service charge for slow service. A pub to miss for sure.

What a lovely pub! I booked a table for 10 people to celebrate my partners 60th birthday and asked for a table out of the main as we might have been a bit noisy. Have never been there before as we all come from different areas and one of our party found this online. The table was perfect, staff happy and very helpful and the food was really good. Everyone said how lovely it was. After our meal we sat in the outside area for drinks in the sunshine. Couldn't fault a thing, thank you so much!!
