A buttery was a domestic room in a large medieval house. Part of the offices pertaining to the kitchen, it was often a room close to the Great Hall and was traditionally the room from which the yeoman of the buttery served beer and candles to those members of the household entitled to them. The buttery generally had a staircase to the beer cellar below.
