So The Bell at the top of Bromley High Street has re-opened. Single and double spirits are not served at the tables. Only spirit wine and Champers by the bottle.
Surely this can not be your average Bromley youngsters night out…..

That pub has had so many failed reopenings, was probably the roughest in the high street when it was last know as the bell.
As for buying bottles, you could walk 5 minutes round the corner to Sainsburys and buy a bottle of Jack Daniels for £20 or so, saving you £250 for mixers. Obviously you wouldn't get the sparklers and what not so that everyone knows what a bell you are but it'll earn you a few nectar points.
I think the typist had been sampling everything on the menu & added a few too many zeros on some of those prices 😳😳 Can’t see this latest reincarnation of The Bell surviving for long charging those ridiculous prices.
There’ll be a lot of no socks and Gucci loafer type blokes that will flock there in their droves to participate in buying a few bottles of grey goose etc. Having wasted a gap year before Uni working in Bromley, I can categorically say that the pubs on the high street and the clubs (if Delanos still exist) were very much a poor man’s Essex

Maybe they can use the profits to produce a menu that was not created on excel and laminated in the exams office of the closest college.
That’s the place, inside upstairs has has one bar lounge open currently, but will have 2 I believe. With a DJ on an overhead balcony, this I’m told is the Weekend table prices.
Just seen they’ve got a wine room and sushi so I probably will pop in some time. Just not when the DJs spitting tunes or paying £300 for a bottle of something.
They've had a food court in what was the car park (Stables) for a while.
Didn't realise is was open again.
The Bell is mentioned in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
Bromley seems to have a lots of pubs and restaurants but not much night life. Youngsters prefer Beckenham or up town, it seems. High St always seems very quiet if I venture out on a Saturday night to the theatre or cinema 😉
Well went to pub on Saturday and my round of 2 Guinness, 1 Doom Bar, 1 Absolut Vodka and Coke, bag of dry roasted, bag of Kettle crisps come to a grand total of £12.22.

I don't think you get Nectar on booze but the saving of £250 will make up for that.

Did she comment on the prices?
Yes, she ate at the McDonald's round the corner rather than pay tuppence for a bowl of gruel.
