I've been here many times because it's hard to find a reputable butcher that can also source fresh seafood. I'm originally from Pennsylvania Dutch country, where they process everything right there on the farm. You get used to that taste and quality. When you move to the desert, those luxuries are hard to find. Are they more expensive? Of course they are. You get what you pay for. I'm also a seafood addict and somewhat of a connoisseur of sushi and you HAVE to have the freshest and highest quality fish for sushi. There's no sauce or additional ingredients to mask inferior quality fish. Well Butcher Bob's has it all. If you care about taste and quality meats and seafood, go here. If not, save your few bucks at a grocery store and pretend you're eating well. read more

Butcher Bobs is a popular butcher shop with a long history of quality meats, frozen food and spice rubs. The service is known to be friendly and customer service is stressed. Positive reviews are overwhelmingly represented and my experience reflected this. The staff were friendly, the store was clean and orderly and the selection was outstanding. The lines can be long on the weekends so expect to wait. read more

Another visit to the butcher while I'm in town. This time I came again for the skirt steak as well as some ground beef and a bowl of sausage. The staff is always very helpful and eager to help anyone and answer questions. There's no actual waiting in line process I think it's just the honor system about who can serve next. There's a fresh meat and poultry case and then there's also another Couple freezers with other items. I've always had excellent meals with the skirt steak. I think prices are reasonable considering it's a small business. Plenty of parking out front. The location looks and smells clean, which is important to me. read more

Wow.. just wow. I came in and was in a line behind probably 50 people. A buddy of mine recommended them, so I figured might as well wait, and it was worth it! I forgot that Yelp can't share a video, but I took a video of the meats and they are all very red and fresh looking. They were super busy, but we told the lady it was our first time and she gave us all the attention in the world and acted like she was making a new friend. She gave us a magnet and a reusable bag and welcomed us to look at the meat display. We ended up getting some filet meat and some chicken sausages, and chorizo. They have a huge display of frozen meats. We got the chorizo and it tasted amazing. The filet was rather pricey at 29$ a lbs, but it was Christmas, so we took the leap and it was well worth it! I will definitely be back to try some of the different meats they offer. I really want to try their ribeye meat, it looked amazing! read more

They have excellent service plus excellent products. I find the prices fair. I love the lamb. flo Johnson. read more

Can be a bit pricey but worth it when you want the best. Knowledgeable staff. Easy parking in the lot.

Idk why I have bad luck. I got a New York strip. Cook it up with pepper added salt after but the meat had hardly no flavor? It was tender and was marbled really nice. I let my wife try it and she agreed, no flavor. Everybody tells me the meat is amazing?? I'll try a ribeye next time. Paid like 25 bucks a pound . read more

Really solid spot for fresh meats. Service was very good. Nice and helpful while deciding what to get. We landed on a one filet mignon and one snake river farm wagyu sirloin for Mother's Day bbq. Grabbed some ground beef as well for later. Recommend for some high quality items. Will be back. read more

Great meats at was competitive price!! Would recommend to anyone!! I used to only get steaks from Costco... This place beats them read more

Service is too notch here. Large orders? Please call ahead so they can confirm inventory, and kindly get it ready for you before picking up. Closed on Sunday and Mondays. Busy, but they move fast. My go tos here are hamburger meat, their filet mignon. And an allergy friendly BBQ sauce. I love that they are right across from My Daddy's Bakery/eatery. Especially over thr holidays. Meats and treats. read more

Good quality meats and service. Higher cost than grocery stores but if you want better quality steaks than Safeway b this is the place to go. read more

This is not my first review of butcher Bob's, but it is for their steaks. I came in tonight for a special steak for my wife and I to share. Our "steak specialist" pointed out the ribeye prime. That's the only one I've ever bought in store or at a restaurant as it's my favorite cut. I brought home and seasoned with kosher salt and pan seared it with butter, fresh garlic and rosemary. I also sautéed some mushrooms in butter. Along with a baked potato and salad, we had a meal fit for a king! Making it at home, it was the best quality for a fraction of the price of eating out these days. Not to mention the adult beverages we enjoyed with our meal. read more

We visited Butcher Bob's on a busy day, and the market had a great atmosphere. The customer service was excellent -- the staff was friendly, helpful, and worked hard to keep up with the crowd. That said, we had serious concerns about hygiene. Several employees were handling raw meat with bare hands, which wouldn't be a problem if they were consistently washing their hands between customers. Unfortunately, we watched multiple staff members grab meat, then ring up customers, handle cash, and go right back to the meat without washing their hands or using gloves. This was disappointing and made us question the overall food safety standards. It's unfortunate, because we would love to support small business owners in our neighborhood -- but due to these concerns, we probably won't return unless we see changes in how food safety is handled. read more

I stop by for not only their super quality meat but the pre-made meatloaf and ham loaf that are in their freezer section. They also have breaded pork tenderloin! I come from a Midwest beef producing family and highly recommend Butcher Bob's! read more

The meat is so good. It has so much taste and is so tender. I would recommend this place highly. We had a turkey breast for Thanksgiving and it was the best turkey any of us had ever eaten. read more

Amazing service, even more amazing selection of meat. We got ribeyes and very large breakfast links to die for! Definately our go to butcher, now. read more

The only place we buy our meat and for Christmas the Prime Rib was delicious. The finest meat around and friendly service always!

First time I've visited a butcher in quite awhile. I bought filets and a roast. The most AMAZING meat I've made in ages! The best roast beef by far. Staff is friendly and competent. I'll be going back for sure!! read more

Huge display of fresh meats, fish and seasonings! I bought Italian sausage and a hot sausage for sauce on Sunday. I was very impressed with layout. Service was ok too. read more

And you'll never find another cut of steak like Bob's bee-eee-eef! -Brerrie I've been grilling/cooking the flavor out of meat for nearly thirty year now. It doesn't matter where I bought it: Costco, any grocery store, circle k... the one thing for sure was that it was going to end up dry and flavorless. So when my wife mentioned the Meater probe, I knew it would pay for itself within two meals. Our maiden voyage included two boneless rib eyes from Sprouts, and it was a rousing success! Round two, enter Butcher Bob's... Me, from a year ago, would laugh at the thought of spending $35 a pound just to turn beautiful fillets into worn shoe leather... but it's a new day my friend, and thanks to the Meater, my wife and I are now producing steakhouse quality meals at a fraction of the price! Bob's quality is a cut above, eliciting childhood memories of when my dad was rocking the grill. Even the fat packs a tasty punch. Hey Guy, we finally found Flavor Town! read more

After saving my pennies, I was finally able to obtain a Rectec Grill!! Yay!! That meant I was now on the hunt for a locally-owned butcher shop to support! After a quick search on Yelp, the closest one in my vicinity is Butcher Bob's in Surprise. They're located on Bell Road kind of on the cusp of Surprise and Sun City West. Super convenient location! There are a lot of stores in this shopping area so depending upon how busy it is, the parking lot could be a little busy. The entrance way and entire butcher shop is incredibly clean and sanitary. Anything carnivorous you could want or need can probably be found here. My wife and I were greeted immediately when we walked in. I didn't have to ring any bell. I didn't have to pretend like I was looking for something. I didn't have to look for anyone in the back. Our needs were tended to immediately. Needless to say, they care about customer service here and it shows. I ended up with a 9.1 lb. pork butt which will be the first chunk 'o meat that I'll be smoking on my new Rectec! The amount of marbling in it is pretty special and the 'money muscle' is large and pronounced. It's obvious the quality of meat here isn't something you're going to find lying around at Safeway or Fry's. I'm excited to get up at the ass crack of dawn tomorrow morning to start my first smoke courtesy of Butcher Bob's! You like meat. Who doesn't? You're a carnivore. I know. We've been eating that gray meat chock full of antibiotics and God-knows-what from the supermarket. Now is the perfect time to support a local business and learn more about what an awesome chunk of meat is supposed to look like. I invite you to check out Butcher Bob's ESPECIALLY if you're an avid griller or meat smoker. They treat you like family and it's obvious they care about the quality of product they carry. Highly recommended!! I will most definitely be back! read more

I wanted to make some sausage pizzas, yet didn't want to drive down to my regular sausage spot downtown, so I decided to give Butcher Bob's a try. I walked in and was helped by an older man who was not the friendliest. I asked him a question about sausages and he shook his head no, and looked at me as if I had asked "Do you sell garden hoses?". This was my first time here, so I had no idea what kind of sausages they sold. I usually go with a "Sicilian blend" which is hot/sweet mixed from my usual spot, but I guess they don't do that here. I decided to go with one mild Italian sausage, and one hot, and then mix them myself at home. Total for 2 large links was just over $7.00. The sausage was a bit more "mushy" than what I prefer, but it still cooked up nicely and was pretty tasty on top of my pizzas. 4 stars for the sausages alone. Pair that with the grumpy attitude of the guy behind the counter though, it made this trip just OK. Not sure I will be back. Would rather drive the extra 30 minutes to get my sausages from my usual spot. read more

Beautiful meat!! Very helpful. Bought a brisket and it melted in your mouth. Can't wait to go back. Hoping they have marinated chicken breasts like I got from my butcher in NY. Easy dinner read more

Great selection love the ability to order fresh fish. Friendly staff. Prices are fair.

Very expensive cuts of meat. They look good but cannot afford these. Have beef, pork, fish, bacon, etc. read more

Serve yourself from freezers. Went there to get braciola beef but was really disappointed in price and thickness of the slices.

Best meat and fresh water seafood in greater Phoenix. Staff is friendly and we're willing to answer all our silly questions.

High quality hand cut meats. Pork from Iowa Beef from Nebraska. Personalized service Chicken breast so huge they need cut in half read more

Customer Service is SUPER, Selection is Great and considering the current situation on grocery/beef prices, I think their prices are reasonable read more

Last week we placed our first order (8# of London broil) for a special Xmas dinner. What we got home with was cut all wrong and would be impossible to grill as we had planned. I called the store and spoke to Jason. He apologized, explained the struggle with new hires and offered to stay open after hours to make things right for us. Hubby drove back and was taken care of immediately. Fantastic customer service! read more

Excellent cuts of meat and selections. I have been going there for 4 years and it has been consistently outstanding time after time.

We went by Butcher Bob's today and bought 6 pinwheels and 2 huge chicken breasts..and 2 filet minons..we always buy from Butcher Bob's because the people are always professional and very kind. read more

Polite helpful staff and the most amazing selections of meats I have ever found. My only regret is it took me a year of living in the area to get recommended to try it! No other butcher shop compares! read more

I purchased two filet mignon steaks to make a special dinner for Valentines Day. When I went to cook them, one of the filets was in fact three pieces tied together with and almost invisible rubber band string to look like a single filet. I can't believe that Butcher Bob's would sell a piece of meat like that. Especially for what they charge. They have lost this customer. Shame on them. read more

Excellent meats, great service and reasonable prices. I go there often. Wish they'd care more seafood.

I guess if we were recommending meat markets, you don't have a lot of choices. Me is good. A lot of frozen stuff service is a bit bitty. They cover the place as a meat market go here because there was no other place on the west side. read more

While more expensive then your typical grocery store meats, the quality is good enough to choose over cost. At least for us. Apparently others agree with us as there is only a small line to get in. The line moves quickly. Hubby loves to buy our steaks, stew beef, sausage and chicken there. We both taste the difference and can't go back to what we used to eat. It's in a non descriptive shopping center but they do have a following. Check them out! read more
