Why is The Bell good for fans?
The Bell in Rettendon Common offers a traditional pub experience with a welcoming atmosphere, making it a potential spot for football fans. The pub serves a variety of hearty meals, including classics like scampi & chips, beer battered cod, and a selection of pies, which could be appealing for matchday dining. While there's no explicit mention of the pub's suitability for away fans, its community-focused environment suggests it could be accommodating to all patrons. The presence of live music and quiz nights adds to the lively atmosphere, which may enhance the matchday experience.

I go all over the country because my job and this is hands down the best pub I’ve been to, very very accommodating and lovely owners. 10/10 would come back everyday of the week. At the time of visiting the new owners have only been in 2 weeks , FairPlay wow! Thank you so much for having me!

This place was taken over the other week (14th May 2025), and I pop in the following Friday and wow, just wow. The place looked and smelled clean. The toilet was all nice and clean (the gents), so the women's must have been. I most all the seat was fixed in the booth. The beer all tastes nice and fresh I recommend the Stella, lovely pint 👌. I can't wait to see what upcoming events they have planned. Watch this space and hope to see you down there.

Another great night at the 80s disco down The Bell, lots of dancing, laughter and a great atmosphere. We are always welcomed by Jacqui and Gary the landlords and can't wait for their next event. Would definitely recommend for a good night out.
