The Butchers used to be great. The last few visits have prompted me to rewrite my review. It seems like they are trading on their past reputation.We waited 40 minutes, in a half full restaurant to get dry meat, cold potatoes, rock hard Yorkshires and not enough gravy. The veg was fine and the serving staff were nice.There are other places nearby doing it right so I won't be back anytime soon.

Main meal was good,... starter lacked a touch of dressing on salad very bland.

The staff here are so lovely, always so welcoming and friendly. They do such a fantastic job on the floor. I came for food tonight with my partner and I just wanted to recognise the hard work they do. What a fantastic team they make ?

Great staff, very attentive. There were 17 of us all eating & they brought out the food piping hot & together. Very impressed!!

Foods gone down hill 3 of us ordered steak all burnt. Very disappointing when I told the staff they told me it was char grilled. Never have I had a steak like that there they have always been fine and not burnt or char grilled. Waiter then cleared the table and didn’t offer us any desserts or any more drinks. It’s like they wanted up gone as we spoke up about the food being burnt. Then I see the chef come out if the kitchen with a pint no wonder the food was brunt he was half cut cooking it. Avoid.

Lovely Sunday lunch, quality beef, Yorkshire pudding, fab roast potatoes and roast parsnips. Cauliflower cheese was delicious and mash superb. Gravy excellent. Lovely setting and atmosphere. A really lovely, tasty meal.

First time here with my partner and j thoroughly enjoyed my experience. The ambiance of the place felt very welcoming as you'd expect in a Welsh establishment. With a roaring log fire and the chatter of the regulars it set the scene.The food was reasonably priced and the presentation was good for the food. The dish I ordered was as described and quite delicious. Fluffy soft and flaky white fish with gorgeous hand cut chips and mushy peas.Would definitely recommend for anyone especially for group bookings. You'll really enjoy your time there so get booking.Parking: About a dozen spaces not including disabled parking

Sunday lunch simply outstanding all round. I had the three meats and had ample of all served with gorgeous roasted pots mash and Yorkshire (home made) accompanied by carrots, cabbage suede peas and cauliflower cheese (included). Couldn't fault anything. Shared a desert again top notch. Staff were efficient, polite and friendly. Best we have had for a long time.

Family occasion with pre booked buffet. Firstly a very cold room. Had to wear coats for an hour on arrival. The buffet wasn’t very child friendly even though there were a few children present. Unfriendly and unhelpful service when I asked for some plainer food for my daughter as the buffet was unsuitable for her. The lady at the bar said I’d have to order off the menu for an alternative when I’d already paid £15 p/h and my child ate nothing from the buffet table. I had to pick up food for her on the way home. It would have been nice if she could have been offered a simpler sandwich or a bowl of chips as a goodwill gesture. Cost £9 for two teas and a can of coke on one visit to the bar and a bit less the next time so that was odd as well. All in all we left with a bad taste in our mouths and not all due to the food. Won’t be returning. A simple and cheap gesture of a bowl of chips would have changed the experience and made us feel like we were customers instead of a nuisance.
I went here somewhere in 2022 or early 2023, loved the

A warm friendly cosy atmosphere, and one of the best Sunday roasts I've had, tender beef, and proper gravy. Staff a credit to the owners highly

Food exceptional so was the service, this may have been down to we were the only ones eating there at lunch time also it was cold there. Hence my rating.

No understanding of gluten free, poor options, one saying it was gluten free and the other saying it’s not. Our drinks never came, we had to keep asking. Food finally came and it was dreadful. Would not recommend.

Visited The Butchers today for Sunday lunch in their outside Pod. Lisa the owner and Angel served us. The food was of a VERY high standard. Definitely worth the prices on their menu.Beautiful atmosphere , sunny day and anything we needed all we had to do was press the bell & we were greeted with a smile and nothing was too much for them.Highly recommend The Butchers, we have been for lunch there few times which was lovely, and now can highly recommend their Sunday lunch..the flavours in the food were gorgeous and the presentation 100% which is what you would find in a top class restaurant.Thank you Lisa & Angel for making our Sunday very special.We will see you soon .Kid-friendliness: My girls have been here for lunch and it is definitely a child friendly placeParking: Plenty of safe parking in their private car park
