Bella Pasta is a cheap and cheerful restaurant with a wide selection of Italian food. Its not the kind of place where you would want to spend all night relaxing with friends because its a bit too well lit and the chairs are not the most comfortable. Last time I was there the restaurant had both smoking and non-smoking areas, but that was before the new smoking laws came in, so I can't be sure if it is still divided up.
The main part ... ...I have never had any complaints there. The range on the menu is large. Of course it is mainly pizza and pasta, but there are many different types and there are always at least 3 specials that are not much more expensive than the menu prices.
They do an amazing duck pizza with hoi sin sauce that has to be tried to be believed. And its all good value for money. The portions are big enough that you dont always have room for dessert, but ... more
Bella Pasta is a cheap and cheerful restaurant with a wide selection of Italian food.

The main part of a restaurant is the quality of the food and I have never had any complaints there. The range on the menu is large. Of course it is mainly pizza and pasta, but there are many different types and there are always at least 3 specials that are not much more expensive than the menu prices.
They do an amazing duck pizza with hoi sin sauce that has to be tried to be believed. And its all good value for money. The portions are big enough that you dont always have room for dessert, but they do have a good selection if you can squeeze on in. Again these are italian, but they do have a good selection. They also have a lot of different starters and side dishes.
If the kids aren't too keen or dont have a big appetite, there is a cheap kiddies meal with smaller portions and i think it included ice cream for dessert and a soft drink.
I have always found the staff to be helpful if you have any specific requests about a change in the meal (e.g for allergies or dislikes) and they try and keep it authentic for the customers shouting in Italian when customers arrive or when their food or drinks are ready.
It is a nice restaurant with good quality, inexpensive food, but its not somewhere I would take someone I was trying to impress. It is a bit cheap and cheerful, but a good meal all the same
Advantages: Brilliant all over Disadvantages: none
I recently visited BellaPasta with my friend and her parents when we went up to Birmingham to see Westlife. We were wondering around Birmngham city centre and we decided to grab something to eat. So we found BellaPasta and went in.
When we entered the premises we were greeted by a member of staff who showed us to our table and she handed our menu's to us. The staff weren't pushy and gave us plenty of time to read the menu's and they let us make up our minds without having to be hurried.
The menu had a wide range of different italian dishes like pizza's, pasta in sauces, seafood etc. The prices were reasonable but I thought they were high but that's exceptable because BellaPasta isn't a restaurant like Pizza Hut, it is a proper restaurant. The menu was very well set out and was clear to read, the only problem was that the names ...
Advantages: Consistently good Disadvantages: None really
BellaPasta has got to be one of the most consistently good restaurant chain I've visited in recent years.
Despite being part of a large chain, the food tends to be less 'plastic' tasting than most similar outlets, and seems to be freshly prepared.
The lasagna (vegetarian or meat) is excellent and well worth a try as are the pizzas (although these are very thin, so steer clear of these if you like a thick crust base).
Prices are moderate - a little more expensive than your Pizza Hut, but cheaper than your upmarket italian restaurant.
I've visited BellaPasta in Leeds, Northampton, Milton Keynes, Manchester and London, and had consistently good service and food at all. ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Bella Pasta
Advantages: Great choice for you and your family or friends. Disadvantages: Can be pricey and walks between are uncovered so bad weather can leave your dancin shoes a tad wet!
The Coliseum is the sister to The Outlet Village.Situated right next door you can't miss it if you're gonna go there.But go there you should.As well as some larger stores such as Argos,Bookers,The Holiday Hypermarket and Dixons there are also some excellent places to eat.Go there day or night and you should get a table at any of the restaurants.These include BellaPasta,Italian,obviously but they have some nice twists here.I used it only last week and it was the first time I had seen sliced duck breast on a pizza.But they also do lots of things with sea-food and the lay-out allows you to see the chefs at work in all there "flaming" glory.Of course there are all the regular favourites too.Drinks are in bottles only but not too badly priced.A great place to enjoy a family/friends meal.
There is a mexican place called Chiquito's.Here it is ...
