Visited The Butchers Arms for first time. The staff were polite helpful and went the extra mile to give good service. Both the starter and main courses were really good and good value compared with meals we have recently had. Hope to be back in the not too distant future.

The food & atmosphere at the pub was great. Staff couldn’t be more helpful. The biggest downside was the pre ordering on line system. As we were a larger party I phoned to book a table & this was fine. The venue asked us to pre order food, again a reasonable request. I pre ordered via the online system, but it does not reach the venue. They were able to cope, it just meant a bit of a wait- NOT the venues fault.

We were a bit disappointed on the quality of the food, we order the pate to start that came without the chuney also the garlic message where swimming in balsamic ginger even soaked through the bread ,we both ordered the steak roll. It said comes with fries and colsaw we had the fries and the steak wasn't cooked to how we asked we ve had many meals up there but not this time very disappointed

Disappointing slow service starter was poor main over done and dessert smallest slice of cheesecake I’ve ever had . Had to ask 3 times for some water and quality of food was poor for price paid. Won’t go to this restaurant again. One of our party of 4 was diabetic and had to Waite a very long time for food considering they weren’t that busy

I took my son here for his birthday. Food was outstanding. I’m quite fussy and had to swap things around, this wasn’t a problem and the food came out exactly as I’d ordered it and piping hot. The girls serving us was pleasant and made us feel very welcome. Definitely 100% will be going back….

Great place for food after a long walk. We did the Brecon Beacons three peaks so looking for a cosy pub for some good traditional food. I had the gammon egg and chips and my partner had the steak and ale pie. They certainly delivered just that. Lovely warm welcome and great food and the service was spot on. Would highly recommend.

Landlord was happy to move us so we could bring dogs into the bar with us. I chose a beer which landlord steered me away from. Food was great. Everyone loved our dogs! Felt very welcomed and valued. Very easy to see us coming back when they rebrand as a steakhouse.
