The Butchers Arms at Sheepscombe : freehouse & restaurant - Real Ale, Cask Ale, Cask Conditioned Ale, Gloucestershire PubBar & restaurant

Inside, the pub is non-smoking throughout and has a welcoming bar with a selection of hand pulled real ales and two separate dining rooms.

Although customers come from far and wide to enjoy our great pub food, we are a "real pub", not a restaurant and drinkers are especially welcome. We are all real ale enthusiasts and we always have three well-kept real ales on tap. Hook Norton Hooky Bitter is a regular feature and we carry an ever changing selection of guest ales.

All guest ales are subject to the discriminating tastebuds of our regulars who help us to decide which beers to bring back in the future. Amongst our recent favourites are:

  • Adnams "Broadside"
  • Otter Brewery's "Otter Best"
  • Wye Valley Brewery "Dorothy Goodbody's Golden Ale"
  • Sharp's "Doom Bar"
  • Timothy Taylors "Landlord"
  • Fullers "London Pride"



Food & drink

Our restaurant is famous for its fresh, locally sourced home made dishes with a large number of fish and vegetarian specialities. As well as our main menu of great pub food we have an ever changing blackboard of specials, usually made with fresh locally grown and reared produce.

In summer barbeques are often held outside in the garden.

Children

Families with children are especially welcome at The Butchers Arms. We are happy to serve half portions from our main menu and we also have a selection of children's favourites for the more conservative junior diner. Just ask for our children's menu.

Wines

We have tasted dozens of different wines (dirty work but somebody's got to do it!) to create our interesting and eclectic wine list which combines the best of the Old and New Worlds. Many of our wines are supplied by long established specialist wine merchants Tanners of Shrewsbury. We also stock a small selection of white wines from the nearby Strawberry Hill Vineyard.

Beer and Cider

We are all passionate about our beer and The Butchers Arms holds the coveted "Cask Marque" award for the quality of our cask conditioned ale. We always have three classic real ales usually sourced direct from the brewery.Our draught cider is Stowford Press from family owned cider producers Westons of Much Marcle.
