In 2005, Pete and Louise Robinson took over a former butcher’s shop and transformed it into one of the most beloved dining spots in the Cotswolds. Today, The Old Butchers is renowned for its casual yet inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. With a diverse menu that caters to all tastes, it’s no surprise that this charming restaurant has become a must-visit destination for anyone passing through Stow-on-the-Wold. Whether you're a local or a traveller, a visit to The Old Butchers promises a warm welcome and a memorable dining experience.
