we had 5 tables all up against the wall, if you wanted to go to the toilet or bar everyone had to get up and you had to squash through. I was driving so couldn't have alcohol but fancied a nice lager (non alcohol ) alas not to be, they do not serve I, 't they have been asked numerous times but have decided not to sell it', so if you don't like fizzy drinks and juice irritates you ... water it is then. Weird menu choices ?! you can have gammon with egg but not pineapple. very thin steak for a rump and quite dry, veg:- 1/4 carrot 2 mangetout and an excuse for a mushroom. batter on fish goujons like cement. don't know what they put in the carbonara apart from garlic ,desserts - bread n butter pudding very 'set' didn't try much else. so had the bill. could we have it separately?

Utterly disappointed with our decision to make a return visit in the hope it was the same standard as years...
Read moreVisited 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.

Thank you Lisa & Angel for making our Sunday very special. We will...
