Summer’s landed at The Bell in Saxmundham, and so has our fresh new menus. For starters, think crisp, golden Chicken Caesar BonBons with smoky anchovies and Parmesan, or a perfectly Crispy Hen’s Egg nestled on creamy avocado purée with rich confit tomatoes. After something with a bit more kick? Our Patatas Bravas bring the heat, loaded with spicy chorizo and a bold picante purée. These starters are made for sunny evenings, good company, and maybe even a cheeky glass of something cold
And if our starters have whet your appetite, just wait until you see the mains. Dive into our Sea Vegetable Paella, brimming with samphire, peas, courgettes, and sun-kissed saffron tomato rice, a summer holiday on a plate. Or keep things comforting with our Swiss Chard and Norfolk White Cheese Lasagne, layered with goodness and finished with a rich porcini mushroom sauce. Prefer to go with the flow? Our Market Fish of the Day is always fresh and full of flavour, served with a gremolata croquette, zesty sauce vièrge, and a touch more samphire for good measure.
Desserts
End your meal on a sweet note with one of our tempting new desserts. The Raspberry and Tonka Bean Posset is silky and fragrant, served with Chambord Chantilly and a handful of juicy blackberries. If comfort’s calling, our Croissant Bread and Butter Pudding is the answer, warm, buttery, and topped with Suffolk Meadow’s salted caramel ice cream. Or keep it light with our Strawberry and White Chocolate Cheesecake, set on a crumbly shortbread base with a generous swirl of mascarpone cream. The hardest part? Picking just one.
Ashley Beale, General Manager of The Bell, said: “We’re really excited to share our new summer menu—it’s full of fresh, seasonal flavours and a few unexpected twists we think guests will love. The team’s put so much thought and energy into every dish, and it’s been a real joy to bring it all together. We hope everyone who visits The Bell enjoys it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.”
