The Bell at Yarpole

To clear up the rumours and keep everyone in the loop — here are the facts 👍 We’re really excited to share that we’ve found fantastic new tenants who are ready to take The Bell into its next chapter. Michelle and Blaine bring a wealth of hospitality experience, having worked together for 20 years, including the last 7 at The Crown in Clunton. We are very grateful to all our staff who have worked hard to make the Bell what it is. Our final day of trading at The Bell will be Bank Holiday Monday, 4th May. Starting with a Table Top sale from 10.00am. Come and see us for a day of fun and celebration and help us clear the shelves — the less we have left, the less we have to count! 🍺🍷 After that, The Bell will close BRIEFLY while the new tenants get settled in. As many of you know, our long-term goal has always been to find the right people to carry The Bell forward, and we’re so pleased that moment has arrived. Thank you for all your support — we hope to see you before and on the 4th! We do hope that you

There’s something special about walking into a pub and finding the walls alive with the work of local artists. At The Bell, we’re proud to showcase a changing selection of paintings created right here in our community. These pieces bring colour, character, and a sense of place to the pub — and they’re all available for purchase. We love giving artists a space to share their work, and we hope that displaying these paintings helps them reach new audiences. It’s one of the many ways we try to support the creative spirit that thrives in and around Yarpole. At the moment, we’re delighted to feature paintings by Jeanette Kinsey and Cassie Butcher. Their styles are distinct, their subjects varied, and together they bring a vibrant energy to the pub. The Bell has always been more than a place to eat and drink. We are community — and celebrating local talent is part of who we are.
