We went for the Spanish night, and it was amazing. The food was just as good as what we get in spain, and my wine was amazing . We will definitely be recommending to all our family and friends

Just had a superb Sunday roast at The Butchers Arms. The pub was busy but the service was amazing. Very attentive and helpful. The roasts were fab with loads of fresh veg, great meat and plenty of Yorkshire puddings. My wife had a gluten allergy and was catered for perfectly with a gluten free roast. Thanks to all the staff for a great meal.

A great pub but also the food is excellent for coeliacs. The chef is really careful about cross-contamination and there is a separate frier for chips and the amazing gluten free battered haddock. A good choice of gluten free food is available.

Had a wonderful visit on a busy Saturday early evening, arrived to a very busy bar area, however the barman spotted me and arranged a table with a warm welcome. Great service, friendly and speedy. I ordered a black pudding scotch egg starter and a Pork rib eye with veg casserole and new potatoes, my pal, Chips and Fish, both meals perfect. I would defiantly visit again if I am in the area.

We held a Sunday lunch in the private Barn Room for 9 family members to celebrate a 97th birthday. Sam and all his team did a fantastic job of looking after us, and making the day feel special. The food was excellent and the service attentive and friendly. In advance we pre-ordered food and Sam was very helpful in coordinating everything, and enabling us to get into the room early to decorate it with our birthday banners and balloons. Thank you for all your help - a very good experience in every way.

Despite not having a vegan main on the menu the kitchen were able to offer two options: a veg soup which was tempting but the winner was a root vegetable pie with mash and greens. Our server couldn't have been more helpful. My mum thoroughly enjoyed her fish cake and salad, which left her just enough room to fit in a sticky toffee pudding. All in all a great meal, lovely setting, helpful and friendly staff. We'll definitely be heading there again!

The Barn at the Butchers Arms is perfect for a big family celebration. We had a wonderful lunch for 21 people to celebrate my mum's 90h birthday with 7 great grandchildren and all generations inbetween plus a couple of dogs. Having the whole room was brilliant allowing time for people who were travelling from all over the country to arrive, meet and catch up and there was space for a childrens table to occupy little ones. Sam and Claire were very helpful during the planning stages and on the day the food was delicious and service was flexible and prompt but unobtrusive. It was the perfext venue for a big family reunion and a memorable big birthday for mum. Thank you to all in the kitchen and front of house.

Our hostess, Claire, was attentive and added a touch of fun to our visit, whilst ensuring we were well taken care of.

The reason for the poor review is we have booked twice and got cancelled by them twice.

Stopped at the Butcher’s Arms on our way home, being only a small detour off our planned route. Friendly staff, lovely restaurant and a great menu. They have definitely focused on a smaller menu done really well. Many items were gluten free and I had fish and chips and my husband had an excellent piece of steak: both gluten free. The chips were especially noteworthy and very tasty. They pride themselves on local produce and I think you can really enjoy the quality. Lovely atmosphere and I would highly recommend. If we are in the area again, I would look forward to coming back.
