Canalside village character, made for lingering
Ring O' Bells sits in picturesque Christleton, where a canalside village setting gives this country pub an easy sense of place. Inside, CAMRA describes two rooms with plush modern furnishings and a contemporary glasshouse extension for dining and functions, while Chester.com also highlights the village bar and glasshouse. It is a setting that moves naturally from a cosy drink to a longer meal.
Food is a clear part of the appeal. The operator describes lovingly homemade menus, a high-class menu, fine wines and craft beers, with links to main, Sunday, children's and Christmas party menus. Chester.com adds independent support for Sunday roasts and hand-stretched stone-baked pizzas, giving the table plenty of reasons to gather, whether the plan is a relaxed meal or a special Sunday occasion.
Outside, the pub has plenty to draw people into the open air: CAMRA lists a garden and outside seating, while Visit Cheshire describes alfresco dining, heated booths and an enclosed play area. Chester.com adds a large garden, sun terrace, family lawn and children's play area. With its family-friendly finalist status at the 2023 Taste Cheshire Food and Drink Awards, Ring O' Bells has a well-supported community-facing identity rooted in food, garden time and village life.
