Welcome to The Bell Inn, Chichester
The Bell Inn is situated in Chichester, West Sussex, opposite the Chichester Festival Theatre.
We are a traditional pub serving home-made food, with a great selection of hand pulled real ales. Our welcoming atmosphere and decor makes us one of the few remaining traditional pubs in the city and in June 2022 we became a Free House.
We are open for every matinee & evening performance at Chichester Festival and Minerva Theatre and would advise booking in advance.
To make a reservation please call us on 01243 783388 or use our online booking form.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
