"My in laws live in High Wycombe and for years we've enjoyed going for lunches at The Old Bell when we visit them. On this occasion it was Mother in Law's birthday. Booked but didn't realise it has been taken over from the previous owners. Greeting was friendly, starters came super quick and were tasty (Mackerel Pate and Chicken Wings). So far so good, 4 roasts and a Caesar Salad for mains. Worryingly, mains came out literally seconds after the starter plates were taken away. What a horrible sight (think of School Dinners); everything already served on the plate (no helping yourself at the table) awash with watery brown liquid (NOT a rich gravy), the yellow mush turned out to be Cauliflower Cheese, beef look alright but turned out chewy, roast potatoes weren't they were the shape of a frisbee and looked like they'd been fried on one side (and were now waterlogged sitting in the puddle of brown liquid) and the huge Yorkshire was burnt to a crisp (dark brown/black). The waitress came past asking if everything was OK, before I could answer she walked off. As she passed again, I explained I was not happy because of the above. She informed who I assumed was the owner/manager who asked if I wanted anything else, I refused (if that was the standard of food, no thanks and I had lost my appetite). Nobody finished the roasts but salad was finished. Desserts were 2 x ice cream (can't get that wrong) and Apple Pie and Custard which came upside down resulting in soggy pastry. On receiving the bill (over £150) I noted no concession at all for the appalling meals, I did raise this with a waitress who just walked past. I decided not to make a scene and upset the family so paid and left. Clearly the owner/manager who we walked past on leaving didn't care, she had our money by then, as no apologies were offered. Spoilt a Birthday treat and we will never ever return to The Old Bell. A real shame as we had been looking forward to returning to an old favourite."

We had a lovely breakfast with my parents here for their anniversary. We all had the cooked breakfast and all of course ordered different varieties...but the hosts were very accommodating. The dogs were welcomed with a biscuit each too. Thank you.

We went to the old bell because my daughter used to work with the manager. I had onion soup which was very nice and steak well done, and it was, and sweet potatoes. My daughter and her boyfriend asked for a fry up that was not on the menu and got it

We visited on a Saturday morning recently and all four of us had the full English breakfast accompanied by several hot coffees. It was delicious. We could not fault the food or the service. The new landlady is lovely. We wish you well in the new venture! Voir le carte

We decided to take a stroll down on Sunday to try one of their roasts. Wow! the choice was incredible, big portions and very well cooked. one of the best roasts I've had in a long time. Will definitely return and sample some of the other items on the extensive menu.

Did not stay in hotel, so this review is for pub lunch only. Warm welcome, full table service, good selection for food and wine. Food was delicious (steak salad, chicken burger, beer battered Haloumi) served piping hot, well presented and generous portions. Will certainly be back!

Fabulous food, drinks and service. Would not hesitate to recommend this place to everyone I know. Family run which makes it feel like a home away from home. Would not pay attention to the picky reviews that state sloping floors etc. It is a Grade II Listed pub and has all the characteristics of one! Voir le carte

Never really visited the Bell before the Covid. However my wife and myself have used it since reopening. The food has become amazing as has the service. Had a roast today which was great quality and just the right size Would highly recommend this eating house as it amazing the change the new owners have made

Myself and 5 friends (not for the first time) visited the Old Bell last night and it was just so lovely. I don't ever write reviews but the staff was friendly, happy and nothing was too much trouble. Whilst all my friends went for burgers or pizza I wanted to be a little healthier and got the ceaser salad thinking it would be quite boring but i have to say it was AMAZING and i fully enjoyed it where i could easily have ordered another one. Definately recommend and would definately go back again... VERY SOON!!
