The Bell Hotel was my fourth stop in Driffield on Wednesday. My previous two (the Mariners Arms and the Tiger Inn) are not listed on BITE. I'll request them to be added. These two very traditional boozers, in complete contrast to the micropub (the Butcher's Dog) I had been in earlier. The Bell was another contrast. It's quite a plush hotel owned by the Best Western chain. I followed my nose to find the bar, where there were no staff and no customers. Ringing the bell had no effect either! I returned to the hotel reception to find that unmanned. But ringing the bell there had the desired effect and somebody who had been serving afternoon tea came out to assist! The 2 ales were both from Wold Top - Headland Red & Anglers Reward. The hotel is certainly very nicely decorated. The toilets when located behind a grand piano were also luxurious. But, I'm not sure it's a place I'd choose to have a beer, due to the lack of atmosphere. Maybe it's different in an evening, if the bar area gets busier. blue_scrumpy - 31 Aug 2019 11:59 |
Despite having six handpumps there was no draught beer available when we stayed here. Don't they employ a bar manager, and if they do what the hell was he playing at? Awful. doctorpint - 10 Feb 2018 14:09 |
