The Plough Cropwell Butler in Rushcliffe

We went for lunch - fully recommend the Sunday roast - excellent - we were a table of 7. Everyone was happy - fantastic friendly service and very tasty food. Good value for money. Totally recommend and will return.

We visited on Sunday for a lovely lunch whilst looking at homes in the area. The roast beef was perfectly cooked and came with plenty of fresh veg. We managed to fit in a pudding which was equally as good! The landlady and staff were all very welcoming and we will definitely be back. There is also plenty of parking which is good.

I don’t normally finish my plate but this was the exception. Very tasty food and perfectly cooked. I had steak, fries, onion rings and peas. The cocktails were 2 for £10.00 and excellent value and very good too. Highly recommended. Nice staff.

Lovely Sunday lunch. Welcoming friendly atmosphere. Accommodated our fussy child & special diets, but could have a bit more variety eg vegetarian options.

Had a fabulous evening at the Plough with many friends and family. Listened to an excellent band, fantastic hospitality from Tina, Lottie and the rest of the staff. Look forward to the next band at this superb venue.

I booked an accessible table for 3, the restaurant was quiet which didn't bother us as we had plenty to talk about. Matthew, the waiter, was charming and attentive but never intrusive or fussy. we didn't wait long for our meals which were delicious and cooked perfectly. we all had scampi and chips but as I ordered from the lunch menu my small glass of wine only cost £1! Wise choice as I had room for dessert, a healthy and delicious crumble. We shall definitely be back.

Fabulous meal . Service great from Tina . Super food amazing value Starter main course and super wine £26 each.

Had Sunday lunch here yesterday which was great. Just the right amount and all food cooked to perfection. The staff are great and Tina is really getting things right here. Highly recommend.

I took my daughter for Sunday Lunch and it was absolutley fantastic. It made a nice change to actually see my daughter eat her veg. Staff were very attentive and the place had a great atmosphere. We will be back soon.

We came straight from work and had fish and chips with mushy peas and a bottle of wine. Service excellent and food absolutely delicious xx

Lovely pub, brilliant food, can highly recommend. Hubby had steak & I had gammon all cooked beautifully, lovely friendly service will definitely return & next time have pudding 😄

Sorry to say our Sunday lunch was not the best. Beef difficult to cut and tough. Yorkshire puddings were not fresh but frozen the Gravy was tasteless, We were really looking forward to this meal but were very disappointed. I hope it improves, the service at the table was good.

Food was excellent and the service was amazing. The owners greeted us warmly and we had a fantastic night out

We came for a meal and was greated by the lovely old building and the gorgeous open fires roaring. We were seated and drinks bought over swiftly. We ordered soup for starters which came piping hot with fresh bread. Then I had a southern fried chicken burger which was to die for and crumble for desert and partner had steak which came out medium as ordered and looked fab! Staff were excellent all round what a great local pub.

So disappointed at the service we received after saying farewell to my beloved sister. The only reason we came back to have the wake was because we had a lovely Sunday Dinner previously. I will not or any of our family and close friends will ever requent this pub again and their reputation has been damaged. Absolute shambles and lack of empathy for our situation which I cannot forgive.

Saturday night booked table for 6.30 arrived at 6.15 and still hadn't got the main meal 2.5 hours later gave up and left at 9.45 having had only a starter after 1/5 hours which was deep fried chicken strips and which would have taken 5 minutes at most. Terrible service unfortunately. My wife had a similar experience a few weeks ago there with her friend. Pub gave excuses that they only had one chef on - so limit the number of covers instead of upsetting everyone! They were expecting 11 covers but had around 40 but even so 2.5 hours - I could have made the meals in that time. Poor management and poor communication

Dirty glasses, poor service. Eventually walked out of the place after waiting over an hour for starters that never arrived in a practically empty restaurant!! No table service in restaurant either. Noisy screaming kids running in and out of the restaurant also. Won’t be returning!!!!

We visited on bank holiday Thursday lunchtime (Jubilee) first time since the change of ownership here. There were no other customers in the lounge area and there was a sign to say get a table and order at the bar. Different to when we used to come there was a pool or snooker table by the fire in this room which seemed a bit random for the lounge. On going through to the bar to order the lady there did tell us up front there would be quite a wait for food, which was fair enough and we appreciated the honesty. We decided to wait as we wanted to see what the food was like these days, when the food did come it was excellent, we had starters and mains. My husband had the pulled beef burger and said it was one of the best he’s had. It was good value for money, good portion sizes and we were very satisfied and would visit again, I think it was a bit of an odd day this Thurs bank hol so they were probably a bit short staffed not knowing what to expect.

Not sure if this pub is under new management - perhaps explains the following? . We were a party of six (pre-booked) for lunch. We were made very welcome and seated by the landlady. After that nothing happened. There was no one else in the...

Super friendly new team at the pub made us feel very welcome and served us delicious home made food on New Years Day when most pubs in the area are shut. One of the friendliest pubs I’ve ever been to

Very friendly welcome, good food (pulled pork loaded fries) and a couple of good pints. It’s good to be back in a pukka country pub. Happy Days.

Nicest Sunday roast we’ve had in ages. All freshly cooked. Service is excellent. Highly recommend. Gluten free catered for too.

Excellent Sunday roast and fish an chips, slight gripe that there is no kids menu, they do smaller plates, but the reduced menu may not cater for all. Enjoyed what we had though and would recommend.

Been a few times now and although I can't complain about the food, it was superb it took a long time to come out and it wasn't busy. The starters are a bit pricey and the menu has been cut down. I wanted a jacket...

Food and service both excellent. My wife and I have eaten here a number of times and never had a bad meal. It’s not cheap, a two course meal with drinks will cost c £50 but I would be surprised if you didn’t enjoy it....

Went for a meal here as it is a dog friendly pub. The food was nice, had fish and chips. The fish was well cooked but the portions varied from plate to plate and were quiet small portions from what we were used to. The...

I am not one for leaving unnecessarily negative reviews but we were very disappointed with our Friday lunchtime visit here just before Christmas. The person I assume to be the Landlord was rather unfriendly, the service was very slow (over half an hour for baguette...

We met up with far flung family members for a midweek lunch. We chose to be in the sunny conservatory for a level of privacy. Amongst much conversation, the food was ordered, presented and enjoyed. It arrived hot and palatable and cooked to order. The...

Excellent. Cannot mark down under any circumstances. Lovely atmosphere, lovely location ,and faultless food service and quality, plus very friendly hosts. --what more could you want. ?

Food came quickly, staff were friendly and knowledgable the outside garden is good for dogs and children.

Simplemente me mudé a la zona y encontré el arado para comer algo. Qué fantástica experiencia tuvimos. El pie y la bebida eran geniales. El personal es educado y los precios son muy buenos. Teníamos un miembro del grupo con alergias / intolerancias hacia los productos lácteos. Esto no fue un problema en absoluto. Los 8 de nosotros definitivamente volveremos pronto.

Always welcoming. Good drinks choice and fantastic food. We eat here frequently and have never had a bad experience. Sunday lunch today was perfect. It's nice that you can either sit in separate restaurant area or in bar to eat. The bar is dog friendly and relaxed. In Summer they have a lovely beer garden as well.

Took my 91 year old mother for lunch at the Plough today. Very thoughtful service together with excellent service in convivial surroundings. We will be back.

Popped in for Sunday lunch, fab choice, lovely service. Ate in the pub area. Will be back soon......

Had lovely meal in the Plough. Not rushed at all. Good quality food. Curry night on Wednesdays followed by quiz. Very good night out.

I go here twice a month or maybe more, myself and my family are always made to feel welcome, really friendly team, and great atmosphere, fantastic beer and food, couldnt ask for more from a pub.

Este fin de semana salimos con otras 20 personas que son miembros de un club de auto kit. Se necesitaba un gran aparcamiento para acomodarnos a todos nosotros, que tiene el arado. Manejamos una ruta circular y nos detuvimos aquí para un excelente almuerzo.

Solíamos visitar la posada del parque yatch regularmente en el día, cuando eso tuvo que cerrarse debido a que la tierra que se vendía nos destripaba. Sin embargo, cuando el propietario y parte del personal se mudó a este nuevo sitio, nuestros corazones se animaron. No vivir más nos hizo más decididos a visitar en nuestros viajes y no nos ha decepcionado. La comida es excelente, cocinada a la perfección y no puedo recomendar los filetes lo suficiente. Los entrantes son un poco caros para mi gusto, pero estaban muy bien presentados y deliciosos. Si quieres una buena comida, recomendaría este pub. También tienen una noche de curry los miércoles y noches de eventos especiales. El servicio también fue excelente, muy acogedor y atento sin ser entrometido. Ideal para todos.

The Plough offers a great menu serving food in both Bar and Restaurant - the Bar is dog friendly. Always a great selection of Beer on offer

Este lugar tiene una reputación muy buena localmente. Comimos allí a mediados de semana por la noche. El bar pub parecía agradable, pero optamos por comer en el comedor, ya había varios perros en el bar. El servicio era muy amable.

Found the Plough at Cropwell Butler a lovely village pub and Restaurant. Had an excellent meal great service would highly recommend. Many Thanks would defiantly come again.

Never fails us. Top place with Dave and Lee. Always a warm welcome and the food and wine are excellent. A special mention for Jodie the world's best xx

La primera vez que habíamos visitado en un tiempo. . . . sentado en la barra en pocos lugareños con sus perros. . . Se sentó rápidamente. sirve para la comida y nos esperó. . . La comida era muy buena, pero hacia el final de la comida hemos oído la gente hablando y riendo sobre el hecho de que uno de sus perros traladó porque perdió su pierna la silla/mesa de piernas y luego procedió a tener una s ** t en el medio de la planta, que fue recibida con risas? ? ! ! ! Ninguna disculpa del personal o el propietario del perro. . Y no hace falta decir que no regresaremos no es algo que apreciamos cuando estamos comiendo

Gran pueblo, buena comida, buenos precios, pero una enorme pena sobre el ambiente del pub.

We liked it under the previous management and the new owners have continued to provide good value within a traditional village pub atmosphere

Cada vez que vengo aquí es increíble! El frente de la casa de caballero es fantástico, como una cálida bienvenida y un servicio estupendo en todos los sentidos! La comida es increíble y a un precio razonable! No nos podemos quejar en absoluto! Gracias de nuevo por una preciosa visita!

This pub is always friendly and welcoming, in a lovely little village. The food is amazing and well worth the money. Jodie is an absolute Star behind the bar, so attentive, friendly and a great sense of humour.

Cuatro de nosotros, los senderistas, fuimos al pub para el almuerzo. Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos y sirve una excelente comida. La parrillada mixta fue un generoso que sirve en un plato caliente, mientras que aquellos de nosotros que tenía una tortilla tenía una comida excelente, pero más pequeñas. La cerveza era buena, con una selección razonable.

Keep coming to this pub as it's very friendly and reasonable value. Sunday roast is superb. The red woman who works there is breath of fresh air and very welcoming. Only grumble is the choice of largers is awful carling or stellar which do you dislike least springs to mind.

Hadn't eaten here for a few months and couldn't find food times online etc but it mentioned a new landlord so we decided to call and book. Food was very good and service was excellent with a real friendly Atmosphere. There were a few hiccups such as a recurring fire alarm but it was dealt with with humour and didn't effect our enjoyment of a family meal. With the increasing lack of quality pubs and pub food it was a welcome relief to have such an enjoyable meal.

Went for Sunday lunch but it had finished at 4:00 and started service again at 5:30 so we sat in beer garden with drinks and waited until 5:30, well worth the wait choice of meals all at £7.00 there was 5 of us and we all had lovely meals and all agreed it was value for money and a lovely restaurant area

Have visited this pub twice before. Service can be very slow, unless you are lucky enough to get the very positive and friendly waitress with the auburn hair. Food mediocre, chips floppy and anemic looking. Steak and ale pie has a strange bitter taste, quite unlike any steak and ale pie my husband has tasted before. Scampi was ok, very stingy with the peas. Dessert nice but too expensive for the portion size. Restaurant lacks atmosphere. What's with all the mirrors? People don't really want to watch themselves eat!! Pub has alot of potential but at the moment it's unfulfilled.

Visited this pub for a normal lunch as had been previously recommended to us a being great for Sunday dinner, however we were all quite disappointed with the quality of the food. We all had fairly straightforward meals but did not enjoy them, the chips were soggy, floppy and generally inedible, the chicken goujons were overcooked and hard, the "special" pasta dish was served with grated cheddar cheese (no parmesan) & the pate was served with 3 very small dry slices of French toast so I had to ask for more - I would have preferred just normal toast like the menu suggests. Its a shame the food was poor as the pub is really nice and we got a warm welcome from the staff/landlady. I might pop in again one day for drink but will not be dining.

lovely food, very delicious,and hot also staff very nice and friendly.found this by chance a few years ago ,and the food is really really good and plenty of it will certainly be visiting again when were passing or in that part of the country.

We came into Cromwell Butler by chance looking for a place to eat while en route and what a serendipity experience.The pub has a restaurant and bar and only wanting a quick meal went into the bar, it being a Sunday we were told that 'we don't do bar meals on Sunday because of the restaurant trade. But I can rustle up a beef samdwich.' In double quick time we were presented with well filled sandwiches, chips and salad of excellent quality and value for money. If the restaurant is of similar quality its well worth a visit.In addition the landlord had a good choice of guest ales and was happy to give an opinion to suit your taste

Just had a lazy lunch with my wife in this small but perfectly formed village pub. Although it was lunchtime and midweek there was still quite a few people in, and the fire was roaring.The device was friendly with a smile, and the food was excellent and not pretentious. We live in a village with 2 pubs but would rather travel to come here. There is always a good selection of bitter and the usual lagers, and one a the best pints of Guinness for miles.It's not perfect but it is fantastic for us.

Well what can I say! Tough steak and SOUR CREAM! Enough said. Don't bother sour faced staff too! And when we informed them of these errors we were spoken to like children and told that if we were taking the steak home (for our dog so as not to waste it) that we would have to pay for the steak! We thought it was pork?! Awful slow service and originally they told us we couldn't have a table because they are the most popular pub in the area! A joke!! I was told I upset the landlords wife when we told them the cream on my dessert was sour! I will not return!

Looking for somewhere for lunch saw the reviews and came here. Traditional type pub with furniture to match. A bit of a mish mash of different styles and influences. My partner liked the firemens calendar in the ladies toilet. We had the chiili and a pie of the day (lamb) both were very tasty indeed and made from some nice meat. Nice and hot as well. Friendly and polite waitress, nice beer. If we were being slightly critical I would say there was no heating on at all, my partner had to sit with her coat on, the waitress politely apologised but said she didn't know how to turn it on. Would call again on a warmer day

well what can i say about this most fantastic traditional country pub took the mother in law there for her 90th although in a wheelchair access was great with a small ramp into the pub ,a lovely resturant separate to the bar was where we were seated away from the door as requested.a lovely young lady served us very quick and helpful.the food was excellent very generous portions all cooked to perfection and obviously home cooked and fresh (best chips in years!!) was going to have dessert but too full cannot remember last time i had so much on a plate.only downside was that as i was driving and couldn't have more of the superb beers on offer so will have to come back!! a fantastic lunch thanks so much and see you soon cheers mick n vicki

On our Sunday Lunch tour of local eateries, this was plucked out of the bag this week. A very warm welcome as soon as we arrived, from mine hosts. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere and decor was noted. An oak table near the window had been reserved for us, the background music turned down and the clear menus handed to us whilst drinks orders were taken. It was good to see that child sized portions of all dishes was available. The substantial portions of roast beef, Turkey or gammon came with a good dollop of creamy mashed potato, three crisp roasties, a roast parsnip and Yorkshire pudding. Plentiful vegetables in four varieties, together with a large gravy boat completed the repast. We could not fault the quality or quantity. Our charming and cheerful hostess then offered the Pudding menu, informing us that today's special was Strawberry Shortcake Stack, which was duly sampled and appreciated. An enjoyable experience in a village pub, with plenty of room to move. I didn't see a Disabled ♿ toilet, and the ladies would have needed some negotiating with walking aids. That apart, definitely one to visit again.

Although fully booked the landlady was most obliging and as we had walked there (from a neighbouring village) in the rain she managed to find us a slot. After a short wait in the bar we were given the menu. Three of us chose from the specials board and one from the main menu. We all enjoyed our main courses and desserts. Good home cooking and great cheery service. A good choice of draught beers including Guiness and a pleasant draught cider. Thank you.

We've been going to the Plough for almost 20 years. Ian and Val have turned it into the best it's ever been. Welcoming, friendly, great beers, excellent food and a smile! Take it as you find it. It's genuine.

We went for Sunday lunch with myself, wife and daughter and wanted somewhere with a nice beer garden where we could drink/eat and have room for my daughter to run around. The pub atmosphere was lovely and the owners were very welcoming and made you feel at home instantly. We had a lovely Sunday dinner, great service and exactly what you want from a pub. Classic British. Highly recommended and we look forward to returning

After personal recommendations and good comments on Trip Advisor today 7th August we decided to give it a try. Our first visit, and the last!On arrival there were 2 people in the bar and 3 at a table in the dining room. The pub itself is beautifully kitted out, splendid dining room, lovely loos, cosy bar and spacious outdoor seating! Sizeable car park. Were were served with drinks and given menus by the waitress...and it took 20 minutes before she came back to take our food order. It was clear that she was the only one waiting on...and she was serving in the bar too. It took a further 25 minutes before our food arrived. My husband ordered scampi and chips and I the ploughmans. The chips were overcooked and dry, he ate a few and left the rest, and he had 6 pieces if scampi on his plate. He said the scampi was tasty. The bread that came with my ploughmans was as hard as a brick and had to be sent back. No bread..when, nearly 15 minutes later, I was brought more bread it was a pre baked baguette/ "bake it in the oven for 10 minutes", and it was white, hot and undercooked!However, the fish and chips that were served to the 3 people nearby looked fresh and hot.

As a foreigner coming to have the "England experience", this was exactly what I'd been looking for. Friendly and cheerful staff, great selection of ales, great menu (I barely deafeated the mighty Plough burger), all in a pleasant, old fashioned village pub atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back next time I'm in the area.

Been having meals out here over past few years every so often and it just gets better and better. Loving the new menu - Macaroni Cheese Balls very unique and delish and deep fried Brie, gone in seconds."The Plough Burger" was fantastic, best Burger Iv'e ever had by far - layers of bacon, cheese and homemade Burger and relish. Lamb Rump was fab too.Never go away hungry and always have a great meal. Attentive staff and good range of drinks always available. Highly recommend. Gorgeous Garden to enjoy in the sunshine too.

Great little pub - there's currently a deal on for £7 meals on many dishes if you order before 7pm which such good value for money. The bar area is nice to eat in, with a good atmosphere (and there is a nicer looking restaurant area, which i'll probably try next time). All staff were pleasant and I'd definitely recommend!

I've been here quite a few times now and its always been top notch food in my book.This time around I came with friends and they never been here before and I know they loved the food.Arriving here the staff are very pleasant and made you feel welcome which is nice and makes customers want to come back. We arrived just before it started getting more busy, the food came out within 15mins and I thought it looked small when coming to our table, I was wrong the rest of the food ie vegetables came in bowls and plenty of it, so I was very happy. All the food was cooked perfectly and presented to a very high standard.The staff are so good running around serving us and they do a really good job and they should be happy with themselves for the work/job they do, also two nice owners that do a very good job bring us back to have more nice food.Staff came around once to check if everything was OK and let us carry on with our meal (I don't like staff if they come around to many times to see if everything is OK)The plough is really nice in a nice village and inside is clean. OVERALL: I couldn't say a bad word about this place has it does all the right things and i haven't had a bad meal yet! I will be back for some more good food shortly. Keep up the good food guys!

Last night I was looking on Tripadvisor for somewhere providing a reasonably priced, unpretentious menu for lunch today. The Plough at Cropwell Butler seemed to fit the bill based on previous reviews, and I checked out their menu via the link to the pub's own website. Neither I nor my companions were disappointed; so "thank you" Tripadvisor. I must add that we found all the staff here very pleasant, refreshingly attentive and genuinely thoughtful. My only problem was choosing what to have - if I'd ordered everything that I fancied, you would have had to carry me home! I'll be back.

A real chef cooking real food for real people served by excellent front of house.Not a sign of bought in reheated stuffMy wife had a pepper mushroom pot. Clearly chef's own design. I had his brilliant soup. Main course was just as magic. Sadly space was not there to check out the sweet courses which read as a perfect accompaniment to complete the meal.By the way the real ale is really good Mine came from Southwold.Best suprise was the bill. There was no charge for the starters. I pointed this out and paid in full. It would have been churlish to do otherwise.You just have to give this plough top marks for each furrow!

We've been to the Plough in Cropwell Butler more times now than I have fingers to count and we've never had a bad experience. Our last visit was for the New Years day breakfast which was excellent, but got cold very quickly.Prior to this we came for a christmas lunch with friends, had a fabulous time, great food and ended up spending a lovely afternoon by their fire.Their sunday lunches a great value for money and are lovely. The evening menu has a lot of variety and caters for all tastes.Overall I love this place, the staff are always welcoming and friendly and we've never had a bad meal. If you get the chance go!

We stopped here for lunch on our way to Birmingham as it was one of those places we had always said we would visit 'Next time we're passing' luckily there was a sign saying that they had started to do lunches from 3rd. March (we arrived on the 6th) and so glad we did as the food was simply delicious and plentiful, in fact this place is better than many so called popular eateries we have tried and though it is a off the beaten track as far as we are concerned we will most definitely be going back, how can we go wrong with excellent food, friendly staff, a beautiful village and it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Perfect.

Dined here on Saturday 10th Jan and you can tell that it is a well seasoned pub/restaurant , from the moment we walked in the atmosphere was just right, from staff and locals alike.The drinks were of a good choice and the food was just as varied and plentiful and very tasty, I would recommend this pub without hesitation,wether you sit in the restaurant or the bar for your meal you will not be disappointed , a pat on the back for all staff at the Plough. Brill.

This is the first time, we’ve visited The Plough despite only living 3 miles away and we went following a series of good reviews on Trip advisor.The food was really good - tasty and good portions with good friendly service with the restaurant being very nice as was the bar when we went thru to for a drink afterwards (Ian was very welcoming)The only minor comment is the presentation, my wife had the Mushroom pot (which was lovely) but this was presented just in a pot alone and would have looked better in the pot on a rectangle plate with a chunk of bread and some butter - likewise my soup (again lovely)This is a very minor point and we have a great evening and will undoubtedly visit again both with our friends, family and our dog (to eat in the bar which allows dogs with the same excellent menuThanks for a lovely night out

Yesterday 15 of us sat down to a Christmas lunch and we all agreed that it was excellent in every way. To add to the quality of the food all of the cask beers were in faultess condition. Despite there being another similarly sized party in the pub the service was exemplary , quick with everything done efficiently yet in a pleasant and friendly way. All this at a very modest price.

My wife and I found this pub/ restaurant by accident. We called in for a "pit-stop" with a walking group at lunchtime. The beer was excellent and the menu looked good - standard menu and blackboard specials. We decided to return for a meal the following evening and were not disappointed. We decided to eat in the pub side rather than the restaurant as it was "early doors". The atmosphere was great. Friendly landlord/lady and locals, with a welcoming log fire.The service was spot on and the food was well presented, tasty, good portions and nicely presented. I had the belly pork with perfectly cooked ribbon vegetables and dauphinoise potatoes. My wife had chicken linguini and was asked what other ingredients she preferred with it. She loved it.I would certainly recommend the Plough for both it's beer and food. In fact my daughter and her husband have since had a meal there on our recommendation and were suitably impressed.

We have been here quite a few times over the years but not recently. We called in here for our mid-week dinner last night. It's very popular with the locals - the sort of place we would like within walking distance of our home - and as said in other reviews the owner is very welcoming.We had a mains fish sharing platter for two which was really delicious and as we are not keen on calamari swapped it for other fish. My husband finished off with chocolate and toffee torte and ice cream which disappeared within minutes (I had two spoons - yummy). We will definitely be back and now that these guys have taken over The Chesterfield in Bingham we will be trying it out there soon.

Sister to the Chesterfield arms. This is another great pub run by Ian and Simon. Not eaten here yet, but if it is as good as the chess I Will be happy.Beats the lion hands down.

Recently visited the pub for an evening meal and found the landlord and staff to be very welcoming and accommodating.Meal was excellent and very good value for money.Will definitely visit again.

We arrived at the traditional village pub with a very warm welcome from the owners, whilst there appeared to be a lot of regulars we where made to feel like old friends. The food was perfect for mid week and a good price, around £8 for 'homemade' chips, juicy gammon and all the trimmings (its years since I'd had gammon,egg and chips), well worth a visitChris

Extremely dissapointed, went in for sunday dinner, the starters looked as if it had been thrown on a plate with what i assume was supposed to be a side salad, overall not bad in taste but rather unsightful.the main... quick service, very large portions, beef of an ok quality, horiible lumpy mash, roasties sodden in oil. Not impressed... then to top it off, we had an extremely long haired dog sat begging at the table. needless to say at this point we put down our knife and fork and politely asked for the bill declining the dessert menuthis place has dramatically gone down his from a few years ago.

Had a lovely meal, great service, at a reasonable price. Would definatley go again. Very nice restaurant. Excellant service with a smile, very helpful and friendly

Booked table for 7:30pm. Gave up waiting for main course to arrive at 9:10pm. 2 cold and 1 hot starter took over an hour to arrive. 1st couple of times we went the food/service was perfect, happy to spend over £80 each visit. Don't know if owner/chef left but service VERY poor. Staff un-prepared. 3 different servers, repeating same questions. When asked when food was coming told 'Sorry, 2nd Chef rang in ill' - tell me before I waste the evening and I could rebook, Not impressed. Won't be returning.

We booked a table for 3 on Father's Day. The staff are helpful and the food and service were good. We had 2 soup of the days 1 pate 2 beef dinners 1 turkey dinner and 3 apple pies. The food was well cooked well presented and tasted good. We had a couple of drinks each and had an enjoyable couple of hours . Very good value the bill was just over £50 which I felt was very good for the food we had. Wel go again for an evening meal and try some of the other dishes.

I was expecting more - which is probably where I went wrong. I booked thinking The Plough was at the higher end of pub eating. It isn't. The staff are friendly and helpful but not well organised. We were served by three different people. Consequently we had to ask for our menus, were asked if we were ready to order two minutes later and were asked for the dessert order twice.The food was okay, but the prawn cocktail and fish platter were both spoiled for me by vinegary mayo.This is the kind of pub I would happily stop off at if I was passing, but wouldn't bother booking again.

Had to write a review about the fantastic weekend we had - local pub, great food always something for the kids on a Bank Holiday, Easter Egg hunt, free face painting, free bouncy castle, space hoppers, games! Oh and a delicious food that was quick, fresh and so tasty!Always a warm welcome from Ian and Val and staff and we highly recommend. My husband is especially a fan of the real ales they always have on and are forever alternating.Beautiful country pub and well worth a visit.

We booked for a Saturday lunchtime. We placed our order at the bar and chatted for a short while and then when we were told that the table was ready we went through to the restaurant.The food was promptly delivered to our table,hot and delicious.Friendly staff and good service,we'll be back for more.

Booked a table for 1pm on Saturday and food finally arrived at 2.25pm after chasing 3 times. Were not told on arrival that there was only one chef working. Other tables also heard grumbling about timing and consequent quality of the food.No bread for the table offered to keep us going and nothing taken off the bill - felt we were held hostage just for a lunch - a great disappointment and certainly not worth the wait. Clearly will not be returning Cropwell Butler in a rush.Felt sorry for the staff clearly not trained to handle the situation.

Dropping in for Sunday lunch was an absolute joy from start to finish. This is a genuine village pub that clearly prides itself on friendly service and very good value home cooked food. Val and Ian are natural hosts and welcomed our young son warmly. The traditional Sunday roast was just as it should be whilst the St.Austell Tribute was in excellent condition. The cosy bar, attractive lounge/ dining room and pretty garden are all welcoming environments. Cropwell Butler is lucky to have such a proper village pub.

We called in on the advice of the Good Pub Guide & were made so welcome. It was warm & inviting with a great menu. Our 2 year old & our large dog were all made very welcome & the food was really tasty. Despite there being a 'local' feel there was a great welcome & the service was excellent.

Went there for a surprise family meal for 28 of us and cannot fault anything. The friendliness of the owners and staff was first class and the food was delicious. Was able to relax with the family while being looked after and the service was second to none.Would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to relax and enjoy a good meal.

Had lunch and the staff could not be more helpful. Good selection of real ale and beers very nice food.
