"I know that cancellation policies are in place for a reason, for the 'no shows ' and for people who do not respect the 24 hour cancellation policy. I can only assume that this is the reason that this establishment has this in place. Sadly, on the morning of the booking, I had to rush my father to A and E. My husband rang to let the restaurant know as soon as we knew that we would not make it. This was because we cared and wanted them to be informed as soon as possible and provide them with the opportunity of securing another booking. My husband rang at his earliest opportunity which was about 9.30 am. We were aware that the restaurant does not open until 12 but we wanted to reach them as quickly as possible. The answering machine came on so my husband kept trying until he eventually got hold of someone. Once my father’s condition stabilised, I also emailed the restaurant to extend our sincere apology and to explain the situation. During the telephone conversation I am speechless not about the non-refundable deposit) but about how the restaurant responded. Even if the manager was not prepared to change our booking to another day, could she not have been more kind with her response? At least 'a sorry to hear about your father, but unfortunately... ' The whole telephone manner was rude, abrupt, and uncaring. I understand that business is business but please have a heart as well. This is why I am writing this review. We were not being rude or abrupt. This was about a family emergency and we were letting you know whilst in the midst of it all. This was a booking for two people, not a party of 10. Does the restaurant not operate a waiting list? Did they make every effort to find customers to replace our booking? Times are tough for many of us right now and a little bit of human kindness goes a long way whilst citing your well publicised terms and conditions."

We had lunch at this restaurant on a Friday. The parking was easy, the welcome was friendly, and the service was excellent. The food was fantastic. We dined in the garden which had beautiful views and was very enjoyable. We will definitely be returning to eat here again. Thank you.

We have dined at this restaurant several times and have always been satisfied with the food and the hospitality. This was our first time trying their Sunday lunch, and we were impressed with the quality and portion sizes for a reasonable price. Despite challenging times for pubs and restaurants, they continue to provide excellent service in a clean and pleasant atmosphere. We are excited to return again in the future.

The venue is absolutely lovely. Thatched roof and just very picturesque. Decor inside cosy and relaxed atmosphere and beautiful open fire. The food was supberb. The main course was a tad small for my husbands healthy appetite. I rounded my meal off with the cheese n biscuits and Port which was a perfect choice. Also the staff were very welcoming and attentive without being over the top. Only wished The Five Bells was nearer to our home on West Sussex. Voir le carte

First time visit to the Five Bells, upon arrival we were greeted by very friendly staff who couldn’t have done more for us throughout the evening. The background music was good and the right volume but that’s kind of where the atmosphere stopped, the lack of personal touch in the decor was a bit sad. Our starter was fantastic, although it took a while to arrive. Then another long wait ensued for the mains, admittedly a lot of tables came in at the same time so I guess the kitchen was over-run but not sure that should be happening in a smaller establishment. When the mains did arrive they were nice but didn’t blow us away. All in all seemed to be missing a star flavour, having said this the f...
