The Butcher Arms - West Somerset

One pint of draught pale ale and a half of shandy; £7.70 seems too steep to me. Most pubs in this area serve a pint of draught beer for under £4.00.

As a regular local to the pub very disappointed with the landlords who are leaving at the end of November. They are blatantly ripping off people as they do not care about custom. Spent money on an expensive round a t a regular meeting with locals only to find that rounds were not given to people who were due a round. I know that the landlords are leaving but do not rip off locals who keep the pub running

Steak very chewy but tasty. loads of chips and biggest onion rings ever. Sauce was very small. Felt a little expensive

Since the management changed in the spring (2022), I was really hoping for an upgrade in food, and a deep clean to remove the smell of stale smoke. Under previous managers, who were lovely, I witnessed such atrocities as a waitress picking out food from the Sunday buffet with her fingers. I regularly called through early summer to ask if food service had restarted, and was told there were delays with refitting the kitchen and sourcing local suppliers sounded promising! By late July they were serving food, and I ordered lasagne and vegetables. When it arrived, it was clear that everything was from frozen and reheated…so gave the dog my mushy carrots and peas. Others ordered burger and chips, which was better than mine and reasonably priced; but the type of burger you only serve to undiscerning children. And still a very strong smell of stale smoke and split beer. What a shame! I may return, but not to eat.

We came across this pub while on holiday at Butlins we went on the Wednesday to find it shut so returned Friday instead we were welcomed by the owner very friendly and sat in the window seat we placed our order of food which arrived...
