Frequently Asked Questions can be found at the bottom of this page.

How do I cancel my table? 

We understand your plans may change and you may need to cancel your table.  The quickest and easiest way to do this is to use the link found at the bottom of your confirmation email if you’re table is for 5 or less people. Please call or email if your table if it is for 6 or more people.

How can I amend my guest numbers?

If you’d like to amend your booking, please reply back to your confirmation email – this will link the adjustment directly to your booking.

May I book a certain table/room?

Whilst we do our best to seat you in the room or at the table you prefer, we are unable to guarantee tables.

I am hard of hearing is there a quiet area I may sit in?

Let us know by giving us a call or sending an email and we will do our very best to pop you on a quiet table.

May I book a table to eat in the ‘The Shed’, on the patio on in the garden?

You may book in ‘The Shed’ in the warmer months. If there is availability on the patio on your arrival you are welcome to move from inside to out to dine there. Bar snacks can be paid for and collected from the bar (Wednesday – Saturday) for garden tables.

Are there heaters in the covered areas outside?

We do have heaters, however, these take the chill off rather than heat, so we suggest you still wrap up warmly.

May I book a table for pre-dinner drinks or drinks without a meal?

Please be aware your table may be occupied before your reservation time. However, we have tables in the bar, patio and garden available on a first come, first served basis. We are not able to book these for drinks only.

It is important I contact you quickly. What is the best way?

Give us a call and we will do our very best to assist you as soon as possible. Please do leave a message if you are unable to get through during busy service times, we will receive your message soon after and respond as quickly as possible.

Do you have full disabled access in the pub?

The pub is on one level and is fully accessible.  If you are booking a table please do let us know in advance to ensure we place you at a table suitable for a wheelchair. There are two disabled parking spaces outside the front door.

Do you have a children’s menu?

Yes and all main courses from the menu (with a few obvious exceptions) may be ordered in child portions.

I have a dietary requirement, are you able to cater me?

We do our very best to meet all dietary requirements and cater for allergies. We are able to offer vegetarian and vegan dishes, but please be aware we are a meat led pub and your choice will be limited. For all of the above please do let us know in advance (and again when your order is taken). There are sample menus on our ‘Eat’ page.

May I bring a cake for our dessert?

You’re welcome to bring a cake. Please be aware there is a charge of £15 that will be added to your bill.

Can I bring decorations for the table?

Please do, however, we politely request no glitter.

May I bring my dog?

Well behaved dogs are welcome in the bar, snug, patio, shed and garden.  Please use the ‘Dog Friendly tables’ and ‘The Shed’ – booking type, to reserve your dog friendly table.

Why do you need a card authorisation?

We respectfully ask guests of parties of 6 or more people to provide card authorisation details at the time of booking. Note – no funds will be taken at the time of booking, however we shall charge a cancellation fee of £10 per person should you fail to show for your reservation or cancel within 48hours.  We thank you in advance for your understanding.

To clarify there is a £10 per person cancellation charge (for parties of 6 or more) who cancel within 48 hours of the booking, or for those who do not arrive for their booking at all.

This charge helps us to maintain the numbers for which we have planned to cater and staff.  Prior to its introduction, last minute cancellations and no shows were crippling the business and even now it in no way covers our costs or lost revenue. When cancelling at short notice or indeed if people do not arrive for their table reservation at all, we are rarely able to re-sell these tables or have the time to juggle the seating arrangements to allow further diners the opportunity to join us.

The card authorisation is clear at the time of booking; in our online booking policy which you must manually tick to book a table, given verbally when booking over the phone and written in our emailed booking confirmation.

We understand some guests feel this may be harsh given the reasons they’re unable to attend. However, the majority of guests cancelling have very good reasons and whilst empathetic, unfortunately the cumulative knock-on effect to the pub, is huge and hard hitting.

We would like to thank you for your support of The Brisley Bell and your understanding of these measures that we have had to put in place to protect our ability to trade.
