The Blue Bell Inn, Dockenfield

I was hoping for better. Visited for a Sunday roast a few weeks back. My partner and I both ordered roast beef which came out fairly quickly. We were then told that they had run out of Yorkshire puddings only when delivering the food to the table. I was disapointed but asked for some extra roast potatoes to make up for it, only to be told thay had run out of them as well. This was disapointing as there were only 2 very small roasties on each of our plates! We then had to wait over 5 minutes for the veg to be delivered. They then tried to sweeten us up by offering us some mashed potato 10 minutes later, when we had nearly finished. Barman seemed a bit up himself as well.
