Off the beaten track but definitely worth the trip through beautiful countryside and stunning villages. Sunday lunch was superb - I had roast sirloin of beef with beautifully sweet roasted carrots, crisp roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding filled with bacon and sprouts.
The extensive burger menu was appreciated especially by the chilli fan in our family. The kids menu was great.
Puddings didn't disappoint with sticky toffee pudding and chocolate brownie particularly good.
This place has a chilled out atmosphere in which locals gather at the bar and visitors like us with kids were equally welcome. All 6 of us rated it a great Sunday lunch.
Lovely pub in this small tucked away village. What a find! Visited on Sunday. It was too hot for roast for me so I had the fish and chips which were delicious. My husband and friends had the roast and it looked delicious! Will be returning!
We had been to visit Stowe and were looking for a place for lunch and found the Bull & Butcher. It looked a bit scruffy on the outside but inside was nice and friendly and had a garden where we ate. The menu was not too big, which is always a good sign in my opinion but a good variety of dishes. It was not typical pub food but well prepared, quality food. It was run by a young couple, he was the chef and his wife served us. We would certainly return
Lovely pub in Akeley. Quick, friendly service, straight forward menu, nice food, good prices. I had a chicken salad which really was good. Son had a burger, again excellent. And their onion rings were massive!
I really can't fault this village pub. We visited in early January for an evening meal, the welcome was genuine which was complimented by good food and drink. Having returned to the area to catch up with friends earlier this month, we again chose to eat here, we were not disappointed. The same pleasant welcome, really enjoyable food and good ales. Friends and their children joined us later, a thoroughly enjoyable evening. The food is varied and the steak that I had was cooked as ordered. I will not hesitate to return and it is dog friendly in the bar area. If it was not for that option we may not have visited the first time!
A great village pub.
We had an amazing meal. Lovely atmosphere. Good service. Definitely will be returning.
A last-minute stop after a very long drive from Scotland five minutes from our destination. Food was excellent and friendly service.
Lovely wee pub in a stunning wee village. Bar manager was brilliant. Definitely coming back
Myself and my partner spend the day at Stowe House, we found the Bull and Butcher on search. Very friendly, excellent food and comfortable place to visit. Sat with a few locals to watch the rugby and felt very welcome, good folk. If we are close again we will remember and pay another visit. Thank you so much.

We don't go out much butter Steak that I ordered was cooked great
