We’re excited to announce that Butcher’s Week will be arriving across all Deben Inns pubs from 27th April, bringing even more focus to something we’re already incredibly proud of – the quality of the meat we serve in our kitchens every day.

Great meat has always been at the heart of our menus. Our chefs work closely with trusted suppliers to source high-quality cuts that deliver both flavour and consistency, allowing us to create dishes that are hearty, satisfying, and full of character. From traditional pub favourites to more indulgent plates, quality ingredients have always been central to what we do.

During Butcher’s Week, we’ll be shining an even brighter spotlight on these fantastic ingredients by featuring a range of specially selected cuts and dishes across our specials boards. While great meat is something we serve all year round, this week gives our chefs the chance to celebrate it even further, showcasing dishes designed to highlight bold flavours and expert preparation.

Throughout the week you can expect the specials boards to feature a variety of exciting options, with carefully chosen cuts prepared by our kitchen teams to bring out the very best in each dish. From rich, comforting plates to generous sharing options, there will be plenty for meat lovers to enjoy.

It’s also a chance for our chefs to get creative, introducing dishes that you might not normally see on the menu while still staying true to the hearty pub cooking that Deben Inns is known for. Whether you’re visiting for lunch, dinner, or a relaxed evening with friends, the specials boards will be full of tempting choices.

Of course, our usual menus will still be available, but Butcher’s Week is all about celebrating the craft behind great meat dishes and giving these ingredients the spotlight they deserve. If you enjoy bold flavours, quality cuts, and comforting pub food done well, this is a week you won’t want to miss.

Whether you’re a regular visitor to our pubs or planning a visit soon, Butcher’s Week is the perfect opportunity to discover something a little different from our kitchens.

Join us from 27th April across all Deben Inns pubs, keep an eye on the specials boards, and enjoy a week dedicated to great meat, great cooking, and great pub hospitality.

🐣 Easter at Deben Inns 🐣

There’s something about a long Easter weekend that just feels different. A bit more time, a bit more relaxed, and the perfect excuse to get out, catch up with friends and family, and enjoy a few proper pub moments along the way.

This year, the Easter weekend runs from Friday 3rd April to Monday 6th April, and across those four days all of our Deben Inns pubs will be open all day, every day — so however you like to spend it, there’s always somewhere ready to welcome you in.

For those who like to make the most of the morning, The Kings Head, The Coach & Horses, The Butt and Oyster,  The Maybush and The Swan will all be serving breakfast 7 days a week, right through the Easter weekend. Whether it’s a full English to set you up for the day ahead or something lighter with a good coffee, it’s the ideal way to start things off.

From there, the pace is entirely up to you.

Easter is a great time to get outdoors, and all of our pubs are perfectly placed for it — from riverside walks to countryside routes that are even better with a pub at the end of them. It’s the kind of weekend where a walk naturally turns into lunch, lunch turns into drinks, and suddenly you’ve spent the whole afternoon exactly where you want to be.

Of course, if walking isn’t on the agenda, that’s fine too. Easter is just as much about slowing down — settling in with good food, a drink in hand, and nowhere else to be. Whether it’s a quiet table for two, a family meal, or a bigger group getting together, our pubs are set up for it all.

With seasonal menus, a great selection of drinks, and that familiar, relaxed Deben Inns atmosphere, it’s an easy place to spend a few hours — or a good part of the day.

As always with a long weekend, it can get busy, especially at peak times, so we’d recommend booking ahead where you can. It just makes things that bit easier and means you can arrive knowing everything’s sorted.

However you’re planning to spend your Easter — starting the day with breakfast, heading out for a walk, or simply meeting up with friends — we’ll be here, open all day, ready when you are.
