A Proper Sunday Roast at The Shoulder of Mutton: Why It’s Worth the Drive to Calverton

There’s something special about a Sunday at The Shoulder of Mutton. Tucked away in the peaceful village of Calverton, our pub has become known for one thing above all else: a proper, chef-led Sunday roast that’s worth slowing the week down for.

Crafted by the team behind The Brothers Supper, our roasts bring together everything that makes Sundays feel like Sundays, generous portions, big flavours, and that warm “stay a bit longer” atmosphere only a countryside pub can deliver.

The Ingredients Make the Difference

Our chefs focus on simple principles: seasonal, local, and cooked properly. It means crisp, fluffy roast potatoes; rich, slow-cooked meats; Yorkshire puddings that rise just right; and vegetables that taste like they’ve travelled metres, not miles.

Local suppliers remain a big part of why our roasts taste the way they do, fresh, high-quality ingredients handled with care.

The Atmosphere You Want on a Sunday

Inside the pub, the fire glows, the drinks pour steadily, and the tables fill with families, walkers, couples and regulars who know a good roast when they find one. It’s relaxed, friendly, and never rushed, exactly how a Sunday should feel.

Perfect for Families & Groups

With hearty portions and classic options alongside lighter choices, our Sunday menu is designed so everyone can settle in and enjoy themselves. We often see birthdays, gatherings and multi-table family meet-ups, Sunday here is as much about people as it is about the plate.

The Reviews Speak for Themselves

Guests often tell us it’s one of the best roasts in the Milton Keynes area and it’s something we take pride in delivering every single week.

If you’re yet to try it, we’d love to welcome you. Booking is recommended, especially for peak times.
