About us

The Butler’s Arms is a proper family business focused on delivering true hospitality; a warm welcom, great drinks and super food.
Paula (mum) keeps a watchful eye over the kitchen. She pretty much oversees everything from menu development through to sourcing the best local produce and bringing it all together to make the wonderful dishes you’ll find on our menus. Becki (daughter) runs the rest of the pub. She’s fuelled by some pretty exceptional management skills which she delivers with an abundance of smiles, laughter and unwavering sarcasm, all inhertied from the wonderful Chris.

Of course, we’ve got great beer and all the usual drinks but everyone talks about our food…and our hospitality, and our eclectic (some say weird) taste in furnishings and décor, and our toilets (you’ll love our lavs!), our coffee, our home made gins and ever changing wine list, and…did we mention the food? We’re a bit different and (we’re told) a bit good at what we do best; making people happy.

  • Our first visit, definitely won't be the last!! Plenty of choice from 3 menus, we went for the a la carte. Staff were very helpful and attentive, food was delicious and portion size was just right. The one thing I would recommend is booking a table, there were no spares on the night that we went (Tuesday) All in all, a brilliant night, can recommend it to everyone (especially if you like fishy dishes 😊)

    Second visit and I really love this place, but the vegetarian choice is severely lacking. Only one vegan and no vegetarian option for a main course. There is so much choice for the fish and meat eaters I can't understand why. Starters and puddings were amazing.

    Great local for us with eclectic decor, good honest home- cooked, ‘clean’ food, terrific well- stocked bar, carefully thought out wine list, guest beers on tap and live music once a month. This place deserves to continue to ride high and be well- supported.

  • Amazing pub!! We had booked this for a family meal of 10 (incl 2 children) and the service and staff were so accommodating. We all had some form of beef in our meals (Sunday roast, beef fillet, slow cooked blade), there was no trouble in providing kids portions and food was cooked wonderfully. One also had the mussels and she loved it. Picture of the roast beef doesn’t do it justice but it was so well cooked with a huge Yorkshire pudding! Everything was priced very well and the quality was certainly there. Can’t complain about anything, great food, great atmosphere, very lovely service from all the staff members we spoke with and thank you so much for supporting a large group of us. Would highly recommend anyone to go! Thanks again all at The Butlers Arms - great gem in Sutton Coldfield.

    My wife and I went here last Monday for our 52nd wedding anniversary and as usual a great meal, very attentive attention and good value for money. The barman that greeted us and served us was excellent and very funny. Thanks to everyone.

    From the outside this pub appears to be very average. However, The Butlers Arms is a great place for food and drink! The menu is fresh and innovative. Great food served with a smile. The decor inside is quirky and welcoming. Definitely will visit again, thanks for keeping a pub independent and fun.

  • Amazing! The quality of food was incredible and the price was just perfect! Staff were ever so friendly and a big thanks to Rachael on her first shift there! Took a while for food to come but it is all cooked fresh to order! Met with my uncle here as it was in between his house and ours! Really lovely pub, great service and food was beautiful! Highly recommend the pork belly, blade of beef and faggots!

    We were in the area after a charity walk. We had not booked, but they were very accommodating. Great food, and even better service. Could not fault, and if we lived nearer by would love to use this as our local. Definitely will recommend and would go back if in the area 🙂 10/10

    Absolutely excellent place to eat - everything is fresh, local and beautifully cooked. Really nice hearty mains (the faggots are to die for!) and a sublime selection of desserts. All at very reasonable prices. The staff are excellent, too. The Butler's stands head and shoulders above its nearby rivals.
