If you're even thinking about switching where you buy your meat, go to Brunk's Butchery--you won't regret it. We found them about three months ago when we started getting concerned about what was really in our meat, and it has completely changed the way our family eats. We ended up buying half a cow from them, and the quality is just incredible. Nicole and her entire staff are truly amazing--so knowledgeable, attentive, and always willing to take the time to explain everything about the cuts and sourcing. You can tell they genuinely care about what they're providing. The beef is outstanding--hands down the best we've ever had. Their chicken is just as impressive, and even the hot dogs are fantastic. Honestly, we've tried just about everything they offer, and there hasn't been a single disappointment. At this point, our freezer is stocked exclusively with Brunk's Butchery meat, and we wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you for making it possible for us to truly enjoy beef, chicken, and pork again with confidence. We will never shop for meat anywhere else! read more

Keeping it and simple. I resent brought their whole Beef Rib Plate to smoked. I called ahead to see if they had any Beef Rib Plate in and luckily for they has 2 plate left. The cost was $22lb. When i got there was a little line, which was a good sign. They have plenty of good cuts of meat with great marbling. What i notice is there not much customer service. You definitely need to know what you want when they call you. As for my 7lb whole Beef Rib that i got is was fantastic. It has nice marbling. Overall, I was happy with the product that I got. read more

You could not find better steaks and meats if you clicked your heals and said "There's no place like Brunk's...there's no place like Brunk's...." Stater Bros is ok for weekdays. Brunk's is my weekend treasure island when I have to impress Mrs. Yelper (a girl that pretty has to kept happy!) or guests who don't know what great steak is. I do, and so does Brunk's. read more

Saw an add for Brunk's on YouTube and decided to go check them out. Iv been looking for a good local butcher. Daniel was very helpful. Gave me lots of good info. Bought a porterhouse for the grill tonight. What an amazing steak. I will defiantly be back. Next on the menu from brunk's is beef ribs. Thank you again Daniel for your great service. read more

Really nice to have a butcher shop close by with a great selection of meat. I stopped in to grab a prime boneless ribeye for dinner and it was exactly what I was looking for. They also have a rewards program, which is a nice bonus. I'll definitely be back to try out some different cuts. read more

I tried the hangar steak with chimmichurri at Brunk's restaurant up the street, so had to come here to get more to cook at home. It didn't disappoint. The butchery is super clean, staff is friendly, meat is great quality for a decent price. I also loved the pastrami sandwich. We'll definitely be back! read more

The young man who helped us on Saturday just before closing was super helpful at explaining cuts and offered to make custom cuts of filet between 3 to 4 fingers in height.. Patted down... salt pepper. And high heat on a skillet. Cooked to Medium. Perfection! read more

Ordered grass-fed beef for Thanksgiving requesting 10 filet mignon steaks. We just finished having them for Thanksgiving dinner and everyone loved their steaks! All 11 guests insisted on a score of 5 for the butcher shop, Brunk's! I'll be back!!!!! Thanks! read more

If you're thinking about getting a bulk order or a half cow, do it--you won't regret it. We're beyond grateful--and totally thrilled--with the incredible quality of the meat and the care that went into packing everything up. Nicole seriously hooked it up! We'll be eating at the high table for a long time! Huge thanks to Nicole at Brunk's Butchery for taking such great care of us! It honestly means the world to have someone like her looking out for us. read more

I know they have amazing meat here which always gets good reviews, but I also wanted to say that their deli meats are on point especially their Italian meats. Better than getting your deli from the grocery store! The price point is about the same, but the quality is much better. Cheese too. Always friendly service when we've gone there and we're super fortunate to have it just down the street. I know there's an Italian deli down at Dos Lagos that have more choices, but not any better quality than what they have at Brunks. read more

Brunk’s Butchery - Butcher Near Me - Norco, California

We went here for the first time yesterday. We bought a steak, ranch burgers, bacon and some of their weekend smoked meats. The pulled pork was really good. We loved the ranch burgers. We also bought some of their chopped potatoes (these should be cut a bit smaller for convenience, they were pretty large and took a long time to cook. The service was great. A bit more expensive than a grocery store, but the quality is better and I love the transparency regarding where the meat is sourced. We will go back, hopefully next week. I recommend going here on the weekend, pick up smoked meats or burgers with some of their pre cut/seasoned potatoes and veggies for an easy and delicious meal! read more

I had a very disappointing experience with Brunks Butcher. On May 21, I called to special order guanciale, which they said they don't normally carry but might be able to source. I was upfront about needing it for a recipe (carbonara) and understood when they said it wasn't guaranteed. I paid a $50 deposit and was told I'd receive it in under two weeks--or at the very least, be contacted if they couldn't fulfill the order. Three weeks went by with no communication. I had to call them myself, and was told they'd try ordering it again and would know in a week. Again, no one followed up. After two more weeks of silence, I called and said I understood they couldn't get it and simply asked for my deposit back. That was over three weeks ago. Since then, I've left a voicemail, spoken with multiple employees, and even had my husband go in person. Still no refund. No accountability. No follow-up. At this point, they've kept my money and offered nothing in return--not even the courtesy of communication. It's incredibly unprofessional and frustrating. I expected more from a small, local business. read more

I'd like to say my review is based on experience with food at this place, but I never got to. I was scared off by an angry older woman in a pick up truck (owner?) who didn't want me parking in front of the place. She was livid and rambling on about the un-earmarked parking being for workers after two others had parked in front of her place as well. It was pouring rain which was annoying enough but I still tried to be nice and explain I was first dropping off my little girl at a ballet place 3 doors down and coming back... but she couldn't hear it... She even followed me until I got to the dance studio door! For the record, the stall were completely unmarked as anything but regular parking in a strip mall we were customers in. So, while I'm sure she wishes the stalls were only theirs, they weren't. Arguing with an old butcher shop lady in front of my daughter in pouring rain was not happening, so I ignored her, dropped off my girl, then went back without going into Brunk's and moved my car.... I was happy to check out this place since there aren't many meat specialty shops around, but no thank you on patroning this one. The worker/owner lady should be happy she's in a high traffic strip mall (I would have never noticed this place otherwise), but instead she chose to scare a customer away. Bad move for a small business in the state we're living in. read more

Let's start by saying this: the meat I buy--and where I buy it from--should be held to a higher standard. The less processed and more natural it is, the more peace of mind it brings, and that's worth paying a little extra for. Visiting Brunk's Butchery was a breath of fresh air. Although I had passed by it countless times over the years, this was my first time stopping in--and I'm glad I did. The place was clean, the service was excellent, and even though I only came to sample a few items, they went out of their way to freshly grind a couple pounds of beef for me. I also tried their Italian goat cheddar cheese sausage, which I added to some pasta that evening--it was melt-in-your-mouth good. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back soon. read more

Brunks Butchery is hands-down the best place to get high-end, quality meats! Nicole is absolutely wonderful to do business with -- knowledgeable, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure you get exactly what you need. Whether you're prepping for a backyard BBQ or looking for premium cuts, Brunks has you covered. The quality of the meats is unmatched, and the customer service is top-tier. Highly recommend Brunks Butchery for anyone who takes their meat seriously! read more

Finally got to check out this amazing store and met the owner Daniel who was so personable, friendly, knowledgeable and truly went above and beyond to welcome us, thank us for coming in and give us all the information and insider tips. First off, if you live nearby, you're missing out if you don't go. We drove in from Menifee and can't wait to go back. They have amazing cuts of meat, everything is priced well and they will do anything custom (say you want a cut thinner) with a heads up. They do hot sandwiches and meat on the weekends, first come, first serve. They offer deli sandwiches and meats, and have other amazing products like seasonings, sauces and even make charcuterie boards to order. Honestly I can't say enough good things about our experience. We ordered 1 pound of bacon and 2 pounds of pastrami and can't wait to try our steaks in their house marinade. Everything we have tried has been incredible and the only downside is it isn't closer to us. Please go give this small business owner some love, get to know him and enjoy some of the highest quality products you can get. We can't wait to go back. read more

It's a new steakhouse near where I live. Decided to stop and try it out. The place is cozy,tastefully decorated and the staff was friendly and very efficient. My hubs had the chicken and I had a flat iron steak( that was cooked EXACTLY how I asked). It was absolutely FABLOUS and DELICIOUS.. Jenn our server was so friendly,helpful and ontop of it. We will definitely be back and id reccomend stop in you won't be disappointed. They have a full bar also if you want a margarita or more. Thank you for a wonderful experience, we will be back. read more

Loved this place and will definitely be going back. They had all kinds of cuts and types of beef, chicken and more. The butcher took off the fatty parts for us and even offered ways to cook it. Overall great experience and way better quality than your supermarkets. I definitely recommend doing all your summer grilling with purchases from Brunks. read more

I've only been the once and I've only had the burger, but, man, did it leave an impression. Not only was the patty top quality--tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked--but that bacon jam was stupendous. It adds a shot of flavor to the standard taste profile of a normal cheeseburger. I would definitely come back for this burger. However, I love me a good sandwich so I'm looking forward to the other sandwich offerings at Brunk's like their roast beef, a personal favorite of mine, and the brisket. I'm looking forwards to some substantial meat sweats after consuming those two. read more

I saw that this place opened up recently near Panera Bread. The place is gear towards butcher shop with a small menu for food. They're still in their soft opening so their menu is more focused on the meat they serve. I chose to get their Brunk's burger ($15.99) which is freshly ground steak, tomatoes, lettuce, American cheese, and bacon jam on brioche bun. A side of potato chips and a pickle comes with it. The burger is moist and juicy. The staff is nice and attentive. read more

First time in and some nice cuts of meats. I wanted some big thick veal chops but they have to order. Required a $25 deposit but never called me back, i called them 10 days later and told they had the veal but frozen and had to thaw it to cut it and be ready in 4-5 hours. Went to pick it up and the chops were cut about as thick as small pork chops. I was very disappointed as specifically told him I wanted 1 3/4-2" thick chops! Paid $67 for breakfast chops, Buy what they have but would not special order anything read more

Excellent choice of meats, friendly service was a first timer, picked up some steaks to try!! Could not have been treated better top notch, will return to pick up more for the holiday! Tasted great! read more

New spot at the Shoppes! I've been waiting for this spot since last year! I had their roast beef sandwich with boar's head roast beef, horseradish cheddar, pepperoncini, onions, and guacamole. It cost about $13 and was definitely filling. It took about a few minutes for my sandwich to come out. The store was very clean and had a lot of stuff to choose from. read more

A soft opening is just that and it's a learning process. Staff are figuring things out and the leadership finding best practices. Although my first visit had some bumps in the road, the leadership went above and beyond to help resolve everything. I believe in supporting local small businesses. Brunks is a cross between high end meats and utilizing that for great sandwiches. Im hoping to get a chance to try this place again once they are fully up and running. read more

Decided to come here and get sandwiches for lunch after reading a few Yelp reviews. I ordered online but the sandwiches were not ready, possibly because when I got there, the employees asked what type of bread I wanted for the sandwiches (I was confused as the website did not give bread options when I ordered). We had choice of ciabatta or white bread, and I opted for ciabatta for all the sandwiches. As I waited for my order, my son and I looked around and fought the urge to buy some of the pre-packaged steak tips, herb butter, olive oil (and many other things!); but I did end up purchasing jalapeño cheese bread and a bottle of Cajun seasoning. We got 4 sandwiches (Brunk's house, pastrami, horse town and Italian), which were good but wish they had added more meat. Employees are friendly & helpful. Highly recommend coming here! Will be back to buy some steaks! read more

I came here based on my search on Yelp for a fresh turkey. Brunk's did not disappoint and offered fresh turkeys from Diestel Family Ranch. The price is high but I want quality when it comes to an important holiday like Thanksgiving. When we cooked the turkey, it turned out amazing and was hands down the best turkey I've eaten. The taste, texture and tenderness of the chicken was second to none. Their location is clean and straightforward, staff is courteous, and the coolers are loaded with many options of beef, chicken, turkey etc. I did not get to try any of their cheeses they offer but they definitely are on my radar for my next visit. I cant wait to come here for some great steaks and prime rib. I'm so glad they're in Norco and close to home. read more

If you love amazing steaks, variety of cuts and great service you have found your home butcher. I have been here numerous times and had exceptional cuts and made amazing meals. However I am posting now because I had THE BEST meat I have ever had. Pictured is SRF gold label boneless rib roast slow roasted and cooked to 130 degrees. Without a doubt the best prime rib and beef I have ever had (I have had A5 and it wasn't this good). Brunk's has steak tips that are fantastic, house sausages, and all that. It also has great seasonings. read more

I wanted a great experience based on the reviews, but my experience fell short. I was greeted walking in, but that's where it stopped. I told them it's my first time here but didn't seem to care. Ordered what I wanted with no help. Brought out the meat and weighed it and rang me out. Ringing up people automatically prompts for a tip. I'm sorry, but I'm not giving a tip for bringing out meat, weighing it, and charging me. read more

What a bitchin' Butchery! This is a well needed spot for those who crave high quality cuts of beef and do not want to order online and wait for items to ship. Walked in for the one year anniversary and received a great discount! Took advantage of that promotion by ordering beef tenderloin (4 cuts), and (2 Wagyu Steaks)! WOW, is all I have to say! I spoke with Dillon who helped me with my selection and we shared some suggestions on how to properly cook the Wagyu. My Son his Wife and my Wife dined like royalty in the comfort of our home. We paired it with creamy garlic mashed potatoes and broccolini with Sauté mushrooms, it was delicious! I hope to help promote the business with positive reviews so it can stand the test of time for years to come. Big Fan! read more

Amazing service! I have the pickiest Shih Tzu puppy who hardly ever likes anything, but they created a dog food just for her. Two different options--beef and venison--and it was incredible to watch her eat and even go back for seconds. The service is top-notch, and I highly recommend. Lastly, their Wagyu steaks are simply to die for..... read more

So glad to have found this butchery close to home! We used to go to The Butchery in Costa Mesa and Brea because the meat is worth the price! When we walked in, it was relatively empty, but there was plenty of meat available. We ended up with some marinated steak tips, spicy chorizo crumble, a 38 day dry aged steak (that was half price, and another steak (sorry I don't remember the names). We walked out spending $67, but I tell you, the meat is totally worth every penny. The steak tips were so good! Had them last night for dinner. And I forgot to mention, Dillon was super nice and helpful. read more

Will not return. The steaks were undercooked, the potatoes were cold, and a bit overpriced.

Oh hell yea!! For a while now I have been going to Francisco's Meats in Anaheim for high quality butchery and meats. I was told about a good spot that popped up in Norco but never went. Today, in an attempt to find neckbones, - no luck - but I did find one of the dopest butcher's around for sure. While walking up - I jokingly told one of the guys (Mike) that it wasn't fair he was smoking something on the grill outside. He told me he'd hook it up for me which I took as a joke. Inside is great. High equal meats. Unique seasonings and sauces abound. Got to sample some A5 Wagyu. And sure enough Mike hooked it up with 4 smoked chicken quarter that were on the smoker for 4 hours. Damn good stuff! Great dudes that know their meats inside. Excellent quality. Pricey no doubt but you pay for what you get for. This is real food not filled with the BS you find in the groceries. Signed up for rewards. Big fan. read more

We went to Brunk's today as first time customers. We had seen a friend recommend them so we decided to drive the hour+ drive there. We spent over $300 on what seems to be like high quality meat. Workers were very friendly and helpful. Store was very clean. We purchased 4 steaks and a tri tip. It was the best tasting tri tip we have ever had! The meat was the talk of the lunch/dinner party that we were having. You can literally taste the quality of the meat. It's not your everyday grocery store meat. We would highly recommend! read more

So I've never used a butchery for my Thanksgiving needs. I decided to try it out. It's more expensive but what you get is an amazing fresh bird. They do the duck fat on the outside and they salt it for you. They clean it as well which is perfect for me because I hate that part. I didn't have to brine it either. It was flavorful and delish. They really know their meats! It's definitely worth the money. Stop by and try them for your everyday needs. You won't be disappointed read more

Their cuts of meat are super fresh. Best for steak. Highly recommend this place. Thank you for your service.
