Then get your carnivorous little bottoms along to the savoy centre and get ready to find one of the best non fancy butchers in Glasgow...i shit thee not. Aye, its a bit freaky inside the savoy centre with its swarms of grannys, pishy stores and dodgy blokes.....if you've ever used the toilets in here you'll know what i'm talking about...., however this place is real quality. Selling the usual array of meats, cooked and raw, and with excellent deals on regularly, this is one fantastic place hidden away on Sauchiehall street. Get your bum here. Buy some Italian links (they're huge and tasty, and get ready to enjoy great meat at kick ass prices....

In the past I had never seen it in their display but came on the of chance, I asked the server if there was any, and I was in luck there was a stock pile in the fridge. Not sure why a butchers shop would stock an item then not place it on display, very odd indeed. There is a good selection here, from steak pie's to eggs, definitely a place to visit.

From having a 5 min healthy discussion on preferences of wing-tip sirloin and ribs of beef I was given a sneeky peep round the back. These guys provide the beef for the best steak places in Glasgow. I'd eaten at one of them earlier in the week and my eyes were bulging at the trays of chateaubriands and rib in sirloins. So, as you'd expect, their meat is very well sourced and as good as you're going to get anywhere. I took a1kg 1rib Angus and pan roasted it in butter and wilted rosemary to get a good sear, then a quick 15 mins in the oven. I had it sat on some roasted beetroot puree with a port, wine and fresh beef stock reduction and the beef was some of the best I've ever eaten. Superb quality and ageing. Week after I wanted a lamb rump as I had the hunger for some dauphinoise. They were happy just to prep some up straight away, no fuss. The lamb was delicious........as was the dauph ;) ........and the sausages. Get the Italian fennel ones and slow cook cook them in your tomato sauce for pasta. Very, very impressive. Prices are as you'd expect for meat of this quality. Look on the window for weekly £10 deals. Steak and chicken. Well worth it.

First to review? What is going on, Glasgow Yelpers?…read more This JOINT rests unassumingly on Byres Road and claims to be purveyors of fine meats. They are indeed. Walk by often enough, but was compelled to go in today noticing the £10 offer which includes 2 sirloin steaks, 2 pork loins, 4 steak lorne sausages and 4 pork sausages. And if that doesn't make you want to go as well, you're either a vegetarian, or just plain ole crazy (yes, those are different). Nice decor, welcoming, with a good layout and professional staff. Excellent selection of all sorts, including lamb burgers that are absolutely getting destroyed next visit. Delighted with my purchase today and will return. Enough said.

They throw in nice touches like free fresh gravy with the beef olives etc, and are always happy to give you a wee bone away for the dog.

Butcher: "No problem, sir. How many? For Friday? See you then." On the day, a cheery welcome, some good banter and some superb shanks, all wrapped and ready to go. In terms of quality & size, more like lion shanks than lamb. The shop looks small from outside but is extremely well appointed.has a fantastic selection of meat, including steaks, beef olives, sausages, black pudding...you name it, they've got it.

I'm not a huge meat-eater but my boyfriend tells me there is no other word to describe Lupton's steak pie except "spectacular" and rumours persist that a young couple from Denmark came all the way to Glasgow just to try it. Everything about this shop harks back to a time before faceless multinationals began dominating the food market with unsatisfied employees on minimum wage serving food prepared without care or affection. A refreshing alternative.

The best thing about this butchers is the value for money. Not only are you sold superior goods, but at normal prices - why would you buy meat elsewhere? The main things to try are the sausages and pies. Both are truly brilliant and well worth the pitiful amount of money you will have to pay for them. I cannot recommend this shop more highly and it is well worth a visit.

If the length of queue to pick up your Christmas order is anything to go by then I knew I was on to a winner. I queued for over an hour on Dec 23, while heavily pregnant, to pick up my order. I can honestly say it was worth it, as Christmas lunch was fantastic! I have paid several visits to this butchers since then and I can reassure that although this is a busy little place the queues aren't normally as long as at Christmas! I have sampled several of their award-winning sausages, and can report that their pork & leek sausages are delicious! They also have a great range of prepared meals ready to go in the oven. From these I love their chicken fillets in a white wine sauce. If you like your steaks visit on a Monday and if you buy two steaks you get a free sauce to go with your steak. I have bought their rib-eye steaks which are deliciously beefy and tender. If Muirhead is out of your reach, then do check out their website as they have an online ordering and delivery service. If you can though, it is worth a visit. Although it is a little small, the shop is pristine and the produce is well presented. There are often daily or weekly special offers also and a Gold Card loyalty scheme to reward regular customers.

They have a wonderful selection of all sorts of seafood, including a couple of fish that I'd never heard of. Fresh or frozen, smoked, live, pre-cooked, filleted... you name it, they've probably got it. Each week's selection varies, depending on what the fishermen bring in, and they're only open on Fridays and Saturdays. The staff are really chatty and provide great advice if you're not sure what to do with your fish. It's run by a group of fishermen; everything comes straight off the boat and is very reasonably priced compared with other fishmongers (not that there's many on this side of the river). It's definitely worth making an effort to visit here, this is one of the best shops for seafood in town.

Whole monkfish, plaice, hake, skate as well as langoustines and scallops were out on display and all looked delicious. They also have a range of smoked products from Kintyre including salmon, haddock, clams and kippers. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and I promised to return soon to buy something. This shop is well worth a visit if you're looking for locally sourced fish and seafood.
