About us

The Butlers Arms is a proper family-run pub, built on a deep love of great food, good drinks, and true hospitality.

Today, the business is run by Becki, who carries forward everything that made The Butlers Arms special. With a mix of laughter, care, commitment to dong things properly and an unwavering dose of inherited sarcasm (thanks, Dad), she keeps the whole place ticking with energy, passion and a lot of love.

The spirit of the pub was shaped by Chris and Paula — Becki’s mum and dad — who poured everything into the place. Paula was the heart of the kitchen, overseeing every detail from sourcing the best local produce to crafting the delicious menus we’re still proud to serve today. Chris brought the humour, the warmth, and that unmistakable character that made people feel instantly welcome. His wicked sense of humour and their shared passion for hospitality helped shape every part of the pub’s personality.

  • At first it was lovely, further on in the night me and my boyfriend decided to buy two shots as we were celebrating. The bar staff might have been stressed due to the amount of people and slammed the two shots down on the bar surface spilling some of it aswell, after this she said that was it. We were confused and questioned her on what she meant and she said she wouldn’t serve us anymore. We stated this was our first drink from the bar and we were both tipsy at this point but none of us were drunk or slurring words so we were confused by her actions. As this was my first time here it came off extremely rude and made me feel very uncomfortable, due to this we were left angry and it wasn’t the best feeling seeming as it was christmas eve night 🙁 we ended up spending our money somewhere else and enjoying our night. Furthermore i don’t think i will be visiting the butlers arms again which is a shame.

    A really genuinely great gastro pub experience. Went with the family. It's a great looking place inside. Had a nice feel to it. We sat in the restaurant section. The menus were great. Had trouble deciding what to have. I opted for the gravalax followed by the tiger prawns. Kids had ham and eggs and my wife the cod fillet. Everything tasted superb. Really well done and definitely felt good value for the money. Excellent quality food and the lady serving us was really nice too (and helped my wife decide what would be best, even sorted a slightly altered meal for our pickier youngest eater). The chips are literally some of the best we've ever had anywhere. We'll be back because there were so many options on the menu I would have had, I need to try them. Excellent meal.

    We came to this pub after a great day watching the British Masters golf for my father-in-laws birthday. Welcomed and served by Tom and the team, we enjoyed an exceptional meal. I had the scallops and the sole from the fish menu and Phil had the filet steak. To follow I had the ice cream with port and Phil had the cheeseboard. Each dish was fantastic and matched by the service. We ate on a Saturday evening and wanted to come back the following day - gutted they don’t open Sunday evening. Can’t remember a better meal and can’t recommend highly enough. Outstanding.

  • Birthday meal for two. We shared a starter of scallops followed by sea bass fillets and the hake fillet. Both main courses were excellent and very tasty. A share cheese board for sweet which had a good selection of cheese but not overwhelming portions. Would definitely recommend and look forward to our next visit

    Spent over £140, took over two hours, bit skimpy on the fish side of things, veg a little al dente for two of us. Staff were lovely, the "we are independent all our food is cooked fresh" line only works for so long. Sorry

    We’d been ‘table 8’ before and came back again - it was brilliant, we had whitebait, fish cakes and heritage tomatoes to start - I’d struggle to choose a favourite as they were all superb. We then had the lamb, haddock, hake to follow. Finally cheese selection and crumble - the whole meal was perfect. The food was insanely good, the service was lovely. Cannot wait to return - highly recommended!!! Great wine choices as well xx
