  • Mother's Day Five-Course Menu

    £38.00 per person

    Mar 30, 2025 only
    Always the most popular day of the year as we take time to say thanks to our dear Mums. Enjoy our five-course set menu with a glass of champagne on arrival to make the day extra special as we take care of the roast this weekend. Please see the Mother's Day menu on our website.

    Absolutely loved this pub!! We had a fantastic meal off the Mother’s Day set menu. For £38 pp, we got a glass of champagne, bread and butter for the table, a starter, main course, pudding and coffee with a chocolate truffle each! Incredibly good value, and insanely delicious food. To top it all off, the service was excellent. They were attentive and super friendly, but also not overbearing! We will absolutely be back again, this is the best pub experience I’ve had in a long time. Thank you Butt Inn team!

    I had the lamb rump. The potato gratin was virtually non exsitant very small portion, all the food in my plate was lukewarm warm and not a generous portion. Not worth £22:50.. The lamb was very fatty, not the type of fat possible to eat. My son had ham egg and chips, the egg was broken, overcooked and no sign of any yolk to dip chips in, always a treat with this dish. Other two diners meals were ok. I didn’t complain as it would have disappointed my daughter who was treating me for Mothers Day. We have eaten there before and have enjoyed much better meals.

    Received a friendly welcome and service was attentive and polite. The menu choice was good (not complicated or clever) and the food was excellent. Premises were clean and well maintained.

    Would definitely recommend the Butt Inn to anyone that likes good food and a great atmosphere. Staff are really friendly and attentive and I've never had a bad meal there. Food is freshly cooked and very fairly priced for the quality.
