Everyone welcome because there is something for everyone.

On Saturday 19th September we are having our "opening" night at our new premises in Tow Law which is a larger than normal ALL YOU CAN EAT WORLD BUFFET. It will be 100% Gluten free. For all of you that have no dietary conditions don't panic 99% of food is naturally Gluten free - s( all we do substitute a couple of ingredients without affecting any taste and prepare with gluten free pans, fryers worktops etc... basically I defy anyone to even know they are eating gluten free... it is just authentic tasty homemade fresh food.
THINK OF IT AS INCREDIBLE TASTY FOOD THAT JUST HAPPENS TO BE GLUTEN FREE.

👉Just in case you haven't heard - we are moving from The Butchers Tap into larger premises at the Brown Horse in Tow Law - merging two great businesses - both are famed for full flavour home cooked foods - so alongside the incredible Sunday Carvery that the Brown Horse has made its name for nearly 2 decades - you will also be able to enjoy Cape to Cairo's huge menu inspired by Africa and the Caribbean - as well as our weekly world buffets with a different theme every time...
