The Butchers Arms, Kings Sutton
A village pub on Whittall Street in Kings Sutton, open every day from noon to 10pm, with a large garden, parking and main, Sunday, lunch and buffet menus all updated in autumn 2026. A plain local, handy for the spire and the station.
The pub to pair with a look at Kings Sutton's church, and it stays open all afternoon, which many villages here do not. A big garden makes it a summer choice. Its own site lists no beers, dog rule or kitchen hours, so ring if you are coming to eat late or bringing a dog.

About
The Butchers Arms is at 8-10 Whittall Street in Kings Sutton. It is open from noon to 10pm every day, and it has a large garden with plenty of seating and parking. Its site carries main, lunch, Sunday, dessert and buffet menus, last updated in October 2026, and a wine list from September. It lists Aunt Sally, darts and dominoes, and takes private dining for 15 to 24 people.
The pub's own site names no beers and says nothing of dogs. CAMRA's entry, updated in March 2026, lists Hook Norton's Hooky and Old Hooky on cask and calls the pub dog friendly, so ring to check before you bring a dog. For a longer lunch nearby, the Great Western Arms at Aynho is a short drive south.
