It is a medieval term that refers to a small room off the dining room in a castle where the drinks, etc. were prepared. In Great Britain in came to refer to the "pantry" of the house where the butter and milk etc. was prepared. In more modern times there are various restaurants that go by the name "Buttery." In olden times, a buttery was a small room in a wealthy household where butter churns, food, milk, etc. were kept.
