About us

WELCOME
QUALITY REAL ALES & GREAT FOOD.
Award winning licensees David & Ruth Hamby welcome you to the newly renovated independent Free house the Blue Bell at Kirby Hill, sister pub to the legendary One Eyed Rat in Ripon. This 19th century coaching inn is located just off the A1 midway between London and Edinburgh , in the picturesque village of Kirby Hill and in days gone by housed its own prison cell, which was used as an overnight stop by officers who, no doubt, enjoyed an ale or two! We have 3 comfortable stylish rooms, serve quality real ales, continental draught beers and lagers, as well as good food – all with friendly service.

Sunday lunch not great, no starters desserts limited & not good, not value for money, disappointed as the inn used to be a fantastic place to eat, won't be returning

We had a meal before Christmas for about 18 people instead of bringing a table out at a time for some reason we was brought out all turkey in one go and time the beef game out all the turkey was cold.

Lovely pub! Went for Sunday lunch today and it was brilliant, good portions with plenty of meat and great roasties. Staff were friendly and attentive, very dog friendly. Location wise it's a mile from borough bridge and part of a circular walk with some good views. Main caution would be the car park got full pretty quick by about half 12/1 so you may want to get in early

Sunday roast , very nice . The young man who served us was very pleasant as rest of the staff . Only thing that put me off was the amount of dogs in there while we ate , 5 in all , when they all started barking it was like having my meal in battersby dog home . Such a shame , one dog owner directly behind us spread out a dog blanket so her dog was comfy 😂
