    Our second time to the Butt Inn and again we were delighted by the Sunday dinner and quantity. The food is home cooked quality and absolutely delicious. The staff as before are great, friendly and attentive. You can’t leave a tip on card so it will need to be cash, we remembered from our first trip. Lovely experience at Christmas

    We had to wait a long time for our food. When paying our bill no one told us beforehand the tip had to be paid separately in cash.
