Set on Park Street in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, The Old Butchers is an independent restaurant with a reputation for relaxed dining and carefully prepared seasonal food. As its name suggests, the restaurant occupies a former butcher’s shop, giving it a distinctive character among Stow’s places to eat.

The menu changes with the seasons and combines modern British cooking with a particular emphasis on quality meat and fresh seafood. Diners can expect a varied choice of dishes rather than an overly large fixed menu, with ingredients and availability helping to shape what is served.

Inside, The Old Butchers has an informal, welcoming feel that works equally well for lunch while exploring Stow or a more leisurely evening meal. There is also a covered, heated terrace, providing additional space for dining outside.

Its central location makes it particularly convenient for visitors exploring Stow-on-the-Wold on foot, with the Market Square and many of the town’s independent shops and attractions only a short walk away.

For anyone looking for an independent restaurant in Stow-on-the-Wold with seasonal British food, seafood and a relaxed atmosphere, The Old Butchers is well worth considering.
