Lek and Simon return for one night only. Come an sample some authentic Thai cuisine at the Ring of Bells on Tuesday 17 March. Booking is advisable.

The pub is looking to borrow around 15-20 Fondue sets and 6 raclette sets. If you have a set that you’d be prepared to lend us please either give us a call or drop it off with us. We promise to take good care of your equipment and will replace anything that may accidentally get broken. Telephone 01647 440375 Many thanks in advance Richard

This week’s special at the Ring of Bells is Duck à l’Orange. This classic french dish will be served as half a duck and as it is a special it comes with a Pint or 175ml glass of wine. The meal price is just £12. The offer begins on the evening of Tuesday 20th May and will run until stocks last. So don’t miss out!

and we’ll make an exception to our not so distant cousins. Yes it is St George’s day England’s finest Patron Saint, the 23rd of April. Now George didn’t die on a funny shaped cross to become our patron saint that wouldn’t have cut it. Nor would have banishing snakes, or creating hills (this was St David’s minor miracle that so impressed the Welsh), in order to grab the affection and admiration of the English George had to slay a Dragon! And so to celebrate this fine Gentleman’s life and career the Ring of Bells, the self styled quintessentially English Pub in the heart of the self anointed premier English chocolate…

I am hoping on a reasonably formal setting, although dress needn’t be, with some fine food being produced by Tony and his team in the kitchen. Charles is so enthusiastic about wine I always find his evenings not only educational but immense fun. I suspect numbers will be limited to around 20 -25 so please book in advance if you would like to attend. 440375 poster by Sophie Meadows
