The Bell, known for their sports offerings as much as their delicious craft menu, are showing the World Cup on screens during opening hours. To celebrate the footballing event, The Bell is running a Lionesses’ Brunch, where for £30 per person, you can snag two hours of bottomless drinks, feast on hearty brunches, all while cheering on England as they battle for the Cup in Australia and New Zealand.

The menu includes jackfruit or smashed avo crumpets, the ‘melt burger’, sweet-a-bisc waffles, and mex-melt quesadilla among a load of other delicious stuff.
