Ye Olde Blue Bell, Hull

An interesting pub hidden away down an alleyway which luckily on my visit didn't smell of anything unpleasant,upon reaching the pub and entering I found a decent if basic multi roomed/alcoved pub with a central bar serving as expected all the usual Sam Smiths wares. Not being a great fan of OBB I went for a pint of Extra Stout on keg and was more than pleasantly surprised as it turned out to be an excellent choice,I was reasonably impressed with this pub,one downside being, some of the clientele tended to be a little Wetherspoonesque, that said I would happily return here.

Hidden down an alleyway marked by a giant Blue Bell this is an old school drinkers pub. The alleyway absolutely reeked of stale urine though. There's an upstairs snooker room and 3 other rooms downstairs, all served by a central bar. One of the rooms was empty, no surprise as the smell from the alley filled the room. The clientele were mainly those who find the nearby JDW a bit pricey for beer and Matalan a bit pricey for tracksuits. As it's a Sam Smiths pub the prices here are very low, I had a pint of OBB which was in decent nick and was under £1.50. I doubt that we'll ever visit this pub again though.

Wonderfully unspoilt old pub, tucked away in alleys behind market - look for the distinctive sign. It has one long bar room and a couple of side rooms. Beers from Sam Smiths at their usual cheap prices. A step back in time.

This is quite a nice but well hidden pub in the old town area of Hull,you have to go up a narrow alleyway to get to the pub but this place is a lot bigger inside than you would think. It is a Samuel Smiths tied house and it has Old Brewery Bitter on handpump this was a very nice drink. The pub was very quiet when i went in but this was early dinnertime,i would be very happy to visit this pub again.

Surprisingly large pub tucked away up a long alley from the High Street. A Sam Smith's pub so your cask choice is OBB or OBB, fortunately not badly kept and of course a good price - £1.44. Other Sam Smiths beers are available but nowt else. A down to earth boozers pub busy with a lot of hat wearing wrinklies spending their pensions. I noticed a wooden spoon and a plastic willy both labelled “Derek's” but was too shy to ask what it all meant especially as this appears to be the home of Hull's winner of the most miserable barmaid competion.

The Cock Inn is a perfect place to chill after work; it’s clean and tastefully decorated. Lovely back garden. The bar is small but even at its busiest hour you will get served within 3-5 minutes. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Set lunch menu £7.95 for 2 course meal is a bargain, all food is cooked fresh, the meat is sourced from an award winning north Yorkshire supplier. Dinner for £9.95 is a STEAL! I just love the busy atmosphere of the pub while enjoying a perfectly cooked steak and a glass of Malbec. I strongly recommend this pub for after work drinks, or a business lunch! Decent service, honestly priced & quality food, good choice of wine and beer - what else could you be looking for?

Like Ye old white Hart hidden gem up an alley.Alpine brewery beers makes your Larger cheap and a nice dark mild rare these days if you run too fast from the Mint too the Corn Exchange you will miss it.Sorry the old guard are passing over they made this pub with the jokes and their stories plus their geriatric antics.
