The Blue Bell - the small pub with a big reputation, serving six cask-conditioned beers from smaller breweries, as well as genuine German and Belgian “lagers”, and a range of over 30 bottled Continental beers.

We are situated in Kidsgrove, just north of Stoke on Trent, and only a quarter of a mile from the Cheshire border.  Find us at the junction of the Trent & Mersey and Macclesfield Canals.  

There are no fruit machines, juke box, TV or pool table, just friendly conversation. Dogs are welcome (with well-behaved owners).  The pub has its own car park at the rear, where there is also a small lawned garden for outdoor drinking (weather permitting!)

Under the ownership of Dave & Kay Washbrook since 1997, the pub has won numerous awards, and has featured in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide for 11 consecutive years, as well as selling over 2900 different beers in that time.
