The Dysart Arms is a grade II listed building dating from the mid-1700s and is in a picturesque location opposite the village church. The pub is named after the local landowners, the Tollemache family, who were the Earls of Dysart. It became a pub in the mid-1800s and, at times, simultaneously served as a pub, butcher's and abbatoir. It was bought by the current owners in 1996. The pub is popular with diners and local drinkers who make full use of the separate bar area. The well-maintained garden is also popular in warmer weather. There are usually four real ales, mainly sourced from within a thirty mile radius. The pub tries to have at least one of the real ales at a lower strength to give drivers an option. Like other Brunning and Price pubs, the Dysart has regular events including an annual beer festival. There is a small car park to the rear of the pub with further public parking available near the church. Bunbury was the village used for filming the ITV drama "Home Fires", set during WW2, fittingly, the pub had a near miss when a stray bomb hit the nearby abbatoir and demolished it. The bomb was one of many the Luftwaffe dumped on their way back from bombing liverpool.
