The Bell Inn had 17th century origins and is rendered with rubble stone and a stone tiled roof. It was originally an old farmhouse. Deeds of 1764 from a pub called ‘The Old Inn’ was otherwise known as ‘The Bell’ and consisted of outhouses, stables, a brew house, garden and orchard. In 1881 the proprietor was both a publican and a butcher.
There was a toll gate situated after the Bell Inn, just before the vicarage ,and it was manned by a toll gate keeper in 1871. Yatton Keynell was on the Tog Hill route, revived in 1751-2 when the road branching from it at the ‘Long Stone’ went through the village to Sodbury, Gloucestershire. The notice from the toll, indicating tariffs and conditions, can be seen inside The Bell Inn today.

Outstanding
Friendly service which is refreshing and outstanding food. Thanks so much to the chef who went off menu with an old favourite (mango mint chicken)!!! The food was out of this world and will be returning soon and we would highly recommend this gem of a pub where nothing was too much trouble.

Great food and atmosphere
Stunning building with great original features. Hubby had steak and kidney pud which was huge and delicious. I had stuffed pork tenderloin with stilton sauce. Lovely! Veg cooked nicely al dente. Fast service, friendly staff.
