The Five Bells Inn - Aldington

What a stunning restaurant! The quirky decor and vintage knick-knacks give it a unique and cozy atmosphere. You can even purchase their pickled products, apple juice, and olives on display. The food was fantastic, especially the bread and olives. The warm bread with salted butter was delightful, and the olives were the best I've ever had. The service from Jen was outstanding - she was welcoming and attentive. Despite being the last ones there (a group of 8), we never felt rushed or pressured to leave. We will definitely be returning.

I don't typically write reviews, but this place definitely deserves one. We made a pit stop here from Le Shuttle with two hungry, tired kids. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The pub itself is stunning, with beautiful decor that gives off a cozy pub vibe with a modern touch. The food, including the children's menu, was excellent, and the service was top-notch. Thank you!

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The rooms were fantastic, the food was great, the pub had a lovely atmosphere, and the staff were absolutely superb. The management was very accommodating and helpful when we had to arrive late in the evening. The restaurant is located in a beautiful and quiet area. I will definitely visit again and highly recommend it.

If you're walking around the Wye Downs, this is a great pub to stop for lunch. They serve some unique ciders which are really good. I tried the apricot one and although quite sweet, goes down a treat! The space is lovely inside and out, with a quirky unisex toilet. We were a big group, so we sat at a reserved section outside under the canopy, and service was on time and they didn't miss any of the 20 orders! The SEA BREAM FILLET, Prawn Risotto, Seasonal Greens was fresh and well seasoned. Would highly recommend! Next time maybe I'll stay at the hotel!

Amazing!!!! Having stayed at a few places close to the tunnel before, expectations weren't high. However, the 5 Bells is in a different league!!! Amazing welcome upon arrival, a beautiful room, fantastic dinner and tip top service all in one! Literally could not have expected better, or more friendly and personable service! Have NO doubt about visiting/ staying, you will not be disappointed! Thanks for a great dinner and a lovely experience!!
