Butler's Arms
About
The Butlers Arms is a true family‑run pub and restaurant perched on Lichfield Road in Sutton Coldfield, just on the edge of Birmingham. Its cosy, unpretentious atmosphere immediately draws you in, while the menu showcases hearty, locally sourced dishes – from freshly smoked fish and hand‑made chips to indulgent sweets and a thoughtfully curated wine and beer list. Visitors are treated to the warm hospitality of a genuine community staple, where family, friends and locals alike gather to share a meal or a pint. The pub’s commitment to quality is evident in its careful preparation of every dish and its reputation for consistent, budget‑friendly pricing. Beyond the food, The Butlers Arms is celebrated for its lively bar, with a generous selection of ales, spirits and homemade cocktails. The open‑plan layout allows regulars to keep an eye on the kitchen and staff, creating a sense of belonging that has earned the establishment loyal repeat customers. Seasonal events – notably the Christmas charity quiz and New Year’s Eve celebrations – add a festive touch and attract even larger crowds, while the daily takeaway menu caters to those on the go. Whether you’re a local looking for a familiar corner, a small family craving a relaxed dinner or a group of friends planning a special night out, The Butlers Arms delivers excellent food, friendly service and a welcoming environment all year round.
