🐾 BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE BUTCHERS DOG
The kids are back at school, summer is slowly disappearing and, behind the scenes, we’re getting ourselves ready to survive another Yorkshire winter! 😂❄️
Running a pub isn’t just about what you see when you walk through the door. There’s a lot of planning, juggling, prep and number crunching going on behind the scenes to make sure we can keep doing what we love — and keep doing it sustainably.
So, from 1st October, we’re making a few changes to our opening hours and food service.
One of the biggest changes is that we’ll be closing during the day on Tuesdays.
This gives our brilliant team a proper two-day break each week, like everyone else deserves, and gives our chef two full days off too. They work incredibly hard, and we want to make sure we’re looking after the people who keep The Butchers Dog running. ❤️
We also feel that having consistent opening and food service times is much better than constantly chopping and changing depending on the week.
🐾 OUR NEW OPENING HOURS
Monday: 6:30pm – 10pm
Tuesday: 5pm – 10pm
Wednesday: 12pm – 11pm
Thursday: 12pm – 11pm
Friday: 12pm – 11pm
Saturday: 12pm – 11pm
Sunday: 12pm – 9pm
🍽️ FOOD SERVICE
Wednesday – Saturday
12pm – 2pm
5pm – 8pm
Sunday
12pm – 3pm
We’ll still be bringing you great food, proper pub drinks, live music, events, competitions and plenty of reasons to come through the doors — just with a little more structure behind the scenes.
🎄 AND CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
Our Christmas events are now LIVE ONLINE and there’s a little bit of everything…
🎤 Comedy
🔮 Clairvoyant evenings
🍸 Cocktail making
🍷 Wine tasting
🎶 Live music
🧀 Cheeseboard evenings
…and plenty more to come!
So if you’re planning your Christmas nights out, don’t leave it until December — some of these events will sell out!
We’re incredibly proud to still be here, still fighting, still creating things for our little town and still doing our best to make The Butchers Dog a place where people want to come, eat, drink, laugh and spend time together.
Thank you, as always, for supporting your local. ❤️
