Six Bells, Felshamback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
we choose to visit this pub as it was a "lucky dip" place to visit in the good pub guide, and we found a little gem! we were given a warm welcome by the landlady and landlord (and pub dog), the food was great, the homemade steak pie is highly recommend and we will returning soon to sample more of the landladies homemade specialities.

I am a regular customer at the Six Bells at Felsham. It is a really friendly pub with good home cooked food. The customers are from every walk of life, from millionaires to pensioners (of which I am one).
There are darts teams and crib teams, and a new pool team. They also have entertainment for adults and children. Andy and Kerry who run the pub are helpful and considerate to everyone. It is really nice to have an old style village pub again which you very rarely see these days.
Lots of us locals hope they stay with us for a very long time. They also love to welcome dogs in the pub which goes down well with the locals here.

Had a chilled out Saturday lunch here.
Building is old and crooked but has a light and bright interior and feels clean - hooray!
Beer is standard GK stuff, but the IPA was really good - yes it's GKIPA but it is a really drinkable beer when well kept and served, which this was.
Food great - a really interesting menu (we had a Moroccon Lamb, Honey and Prune Tagine which was really excellent) on the pricey side for this area BUT it's fine to spend a bit more than pub grub prices when you get more than pub grub food - which this is.
Service was great too - the only shame was that it wasn;t busier - there are so few good food pubs around here and towards Bury - this should be heaving!

A fantastic place to go for a truly special meal, the food is excellent, the service is relaxed and friendly, everything is done without fuss or bother, a friend told me that the beer here was not up to much but that must have been in a past life, I'm not a big fan of Green King I.P.A. but it was a real treat here. I can't speak highly enough of this place.

Great place to eat, they care about you and what you eat. I had the best liver & bacon I have ever eaten. The atmosphere is just right, special without being false.Good choice of back ground music. All in all a very pleasant experience. Try it, I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Terrific village pub which retains all that is best and traditional about a proper local.
And it is still very much a local too - and judging by the four good old boys playing crib in the bar on a Sunday lunchtime it has thankfully avoided becoming a "destination gastro-pub" for Chelsea tractor driving weekenders.
At the same time The Bells is a very good example of a civilised 21st century place that does excellent food.
The Sunday lunch option - seven quid for a main course - was brilliant. The beef, locally-sourced, was first-rate and properly cooked.
Great service too - hugely refreshing after the complacent and too-often surly and unwelcoming approach of some other places locally.
Ten minutes from Bury St Edmunds but beats anything that town can offer by a country mile (or six of them to be precise!)

great food everything homemade also the chef makes real ale bread
the best bread you will ever taste
i have always wondered why no one has ever thought of making beer bread
what a great idea bread and beer
they also have the most wonderful dog called jack he is almost human
why are more pubs not as pet friendly as this one
i run a hotel in ireland and find it so refreshing that such a pub with great standards is so friendly as they are to pet lovers
i think its the irish in them that makes them such a great team

Relaxed, warm, great combination of local pub and place to get decent, interesting and well cooked food at wide range of good value prices. Friendly Irish landlord/ lady (he cooks; she runs the restaurant and bar). Love it!
