Description
Nestled beside St. Peter’s Church in the heart of Harborne, Birmingham, The Bell is a charming country pub with over 300 years of history. Originally a coaching inn, it retains its traditional character with rustic beams, low ceilings, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere—yet it’s just four miles from Birmingham city centre, offering the perfect countryside escape close to the city.
Inside, guests can enjoy a cosy bar area, a comfortable lounge, and a snug space ideal for relaxed gatherings. The pub serves a wide selection of beers, wines, spirits, and ciders, alongside a variety of real ales and a delicious, well-rounded food menu.
The Bell is also a popular spot for a traditional Sunday roast, perfect for enjoying a classic British weekend meal with family and friends.
One of the pub’s standout features is its extensive outdoor seating area. The spacious beer garden overlooks a picturesque bowling green and surrounding greenery, making it one of the best spots in Birmingham to unwind in the sunshine.
