This an excellent butcher shop I am really grateful for their location. Nice friendly help and a great assortment of meats. In addition, I have been shopping at Fischer's for several years now. Never a question about hygiene at this shop. It is top notch. read more

Neat clean fresh looking meat! Always good service and pleasant . I haven't cooked any bad dinners from their meat !!!

I've never been in the store before, but went in today before we left the festival to pick up some steak. They have great meat options, large sausage selection and many extra BBQ items like sauces and spices. Prices are definitely on the higher end, but if you look for special cuts, they got it. read more

Stopped by to grab some bacon. Slices for pinto beans and slices for breakfast and maybe a bacon Bloody Mary. You want meat, they've got it here. New York steaks, filet, prime rib roasts, pork chops, chicken and so many speciality sausages. Friendly service and a large clean store. If you're looking for something special for yourself or anyone else, do it! Treat yourself. SYOY! read more

I have been coming here for many years. The service is knowledgeable, everyone I have interacted with knows their meats and can make helpful suggestions. As a small shop, They started out as a smaller butcher stand. Happily, they expanded their meat offerings. This is an incredible place to get high quality meats. And, to make use of their expanded culinary creations. I love so many items. One of my favorite things to get, is their variety of sausages. Banger sausages are my favorite. They also have bacon cheeseburgers, already for the grill. These are a real hit at a neighborhood cookout. Love the New York strip steaks. Grill these and some vegetables and you will have the ideal summer meal. . So good and so easy to incorporate into recipes. Next, being lazy. I make use of their frozen "take&bake" chickens. These make a quick and easy meal. I have tried all the flavors, but cordon Bleu and Southwest flavors are my go tos. Their take on Chicken Parm is very close to a restaurant version and tasty. Occasionally order the marinated flank steak for company. So helpful to have it pre marinated. If you undercook it slightly, it is very tender. Wonderful selection of seasonings and rubs. On request, i could custom order meat offerings not usually offered. This was helpful, as i had to cook unusual offerings that they could only supply. They are the secret to some incredible meals I have cooked. read more

Always attentive... They are fast and helpful. We absolutely love getting our meats here. They are a little bit on the expensive side, but they will cut your meat to perfection. Fabulous sausages as well. So flavorful. read more

I love it here They are really great people with really great product. There's something for all levels of cooks here! I love so many items but I think my favorite are the frozen "take&bake" chickens they have! I have tried all the flavors, but cordon Bleu and Southwest flavors are my absolute favorites with chicken Parm, right behind!!! I absolutely love their marinated flank steak and it never disappoints and always cooks up nicely. It's a large store so even when it's popular there's plenty of space and everything is so nicely laid out. Everything is so organized and There's always a new spice or sauce to try. Check um out if you havnt, because you're missing out! read more

This local butchery is a treat! This is my go to place if I'm looking for a top quality cut for having people over or special occasion. The service is always great. Quick & friendly! read more

This is a great place for carnivores to feast! Just walk in, and you can smell yourself at the top of the food chain! I made a panoramic photo of all of the many sausage flavors that I would send to my staff to pick their sausages for our Friday summer BBQ lunches on the office patio. Personally, I am very fond of their ribeye and their pork and beef burger mix. But I am frustrated by their 4-star rating. The Covid Karens have messed up the ratings for these awesome folks. If you were wearing a mask and they are behind a 5-foot counter did you think their breathing on your flank steak was going to give you Covid? 3 years later and your sanctimonious outrage continues to damage this business. Maybe now you are a kinder, gentler person and you can go back to your bad review and cut them some slack. read more

Great meat shop. Got a few steaks while driving through and they were tender and delicious. Hard to find a good steak nowadays! Definitely will stop in again on one of my trips through the town. Thanks for the great customer service. read more

This place is great!! I'm m new to the area and was looking for a nearby butcher and found this place. I saw they had a yelp offer for a free pound of ground beef. I was looking for about 1.5lb chuck for a recipe so figured I would stop here. The staff was friendly and efficient and the shop was clean and well presented. The prices here are very reasonable and the quality is great. I love that you can get fresh meat in the quantity you need vs going to the store for a lesser quality and more quantity than you wanted. I think they have a loyalty program because you can fill out your contact info to receive a free lb of ground beef. This is a local company that has been around over 100 years and they seem to have a really great sense of the local community. I will definitely be back here! read more

Fischer Meats - Meat countwr - Meat Shops Near Me - Issaquah, Washington

Cute Shop. My review is based on lack of knowledge on sodium content. They were unable to tell me exactly how many mg of salt was in one chicken sausage link, even though they make it themselves. Everyone kept saying, it's not that much salt. Well, someone like me who has to monitor her salt intake, needs to know exactly how much salt, they think "not that much salt" is... That's a very frustrating answer. It's not information, it's a brush-off answer. They had to ask the prep-guy how much it contained. He poured salt into a container and supposedly weighed it. The amount was said to go into 25 lbs of meat. The lady who was helping us said "It's approximately this much." Then she said it was .34 oz. I looked right at it and that can't be right. It appeared to be at least 1 1/2 to two 8 oz cups. (I have to measure food often for my heart health. I'm not going to deprive myself, but I do keep a record so I can enjoy life.) Well, one tsp of salt is 2,235-2,300 mg of salt. (So let's divide the difference and call it 2,267 mg.) What I saw was more like 72-96 tsp of salt. According to educated eyeballing the amount of sodium we could visibly see for 25 lbs of meat, and 1-lbs being approx 4 sausage links - each mild chicken sausage link contains approximately 1,632-2,176 mg of salt. Almost an entire day's worth of sodium. It is not recommended to eat more than 2300 mg of salt in one day for a person with regular to good health. I suggest this business does a little side work to measure this important piece of information and post its fat and sodium content for people like me with health issues. Knowing this information, I limited myself to half a chicken sausage link on a small salad to be safe. Other than that, it was tasty, but a bit spicier than suggested and it definitely tasted a bit saltier than I was expecting. Knowing this, I'm suggesting the sodium content is closer to the full daily dose of salt of approximately 2,176 mg per link. read more

I have never visited Fischers where I wasn't greeted warmly and given amazing service. Every person I've interacted with was friendly and informative while also offering suggestions on best ways to smoke, cook or grill things I was buying. They have great prices and offer products that are hard to find such as South African boerewors which tastes just like it does back in South Africa. Their selection is amazing and offer more than I've found at a lot of the local places. Fischers is well worth the drive and visit. This is now my primary stop for fresh meats and I refer everyone I know to come here. read more

Great butcher shop on the Eastside! Everything looks so appetizing and fresh. The store is so clean and well kept. Customer service is tops and the staff is so courteous and professional. This visit we bought a rib eye steak and some beef ribs. So flavorful. Would definitely recommend using your meat here. Tip: parking is off the street mostly...but they do have a few parking spots in the rear of the store. Also free parking in the lot across the street behind the stores. read more

I took a drive today and went to Issaquah :-) very quaint cute little town. I took a walk at a park, I had some Mexican food which is next-door to this meat market. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in. They have many cuts of beef. All very well marbled and fresh. Lots of selections of different sausages which are made there. They also have some other ready to cook items. Stuffed pork chops, chicken Cordon Bleu, etc.I bought some extra large chicken wings that were meaty and delicious. Tried a couple different sausages, andouille being outstanding. I also tried a traditional cheddar cheese banger, which the butcher suggested. I will definitely be returning to try out a ribeye , that's my favorite steak and they looked great. ,If you are driving through or live nearby, I strongly suggest you come and enjoy this meat market. read more

I always forget Fischer Meats exists, but they are some damn good butchers. Popped in last weekend to pick up a few filets and the place was slammed. They have a really good selection of meat and service is quick and friendly. Prices definitely skew a little higher, but the quality is definitely better than your local grocery store. Worth a stop if you're looking to support a neighborhood butcher! read more

I have a 'shout out' to Melissa/Fischers Meat I had stopped by Monday before Christmas (they were closed) then ice/snow event. Friend fell and spent most of Thursday in Swedish ER. Friday I had to walk down off Squak mountain. Their line for help was almost out the door- Melissa- thank you for helping me purchase a gift card and letting me cut in line. My 96 year old mom is still friends with Nick Fischer and she much appreciated it! read more

Fischer Meats has meat and passion in giant quantities. I never knew this was here, but I go to Issaquah infrequently at best. Figured one sunny Saturday after lunch my friend I wandered the streets and decided to stop in. I was amazed at the selection and layout. It is a very large butcher shop so I never felt pressed in. The whole store was very clean, no weird smells, and the selection was enormous. Beef cuts of all kinds, chicken, lamb, sausage, bacon, jerky, sauces, rubs and more! Soooo much stuff! But what will keep Fischer's in my brain was the one butcher we talked with oozed passion for his employer. He was amazingly informative telling us everything from the history to how they make their bacon and why theirs was the best. There was no ego, no bombastic bragging - this gentleman explained with convincing confidence how they contribute to the community. I was hooked. Now when I think of buying meat I'll forgo the grocery store to make a side trip here. That butcher was amazing and he totally made two customers that day. read more

Jarred helped us and he was so patient, as we were not totally sure of what we wanted I even got a free lb of ground beef just for signing up for their awesome rewards!!! Great selection of meats and great prices....we will be back read more

We've been going to Fisher Meats for many years. Always great service & fresh meats plus sauces & spices for easy preparation ideas. We love the chicken cordon blue- they have other choices but this is our favorite! The chicken & the ham are high quality trimmed up well so you get 0 fat or gristle which isn't the case when we've gotten it at other butchers. When you bake them they get a delicious crispy crust & the center oozing with Swiss cheese- YUM! We also love their meatloaf- a juicy & tasty mix meats & spices. The porter house steaks are amazing as well & with Covid & cooking at home mostly- why not splurge! The jalapeño cheese pepperoni are a delicious snack on your way home- just the right amount of heat. They also have the most amazing bratwursts- very lean & tasty- we get them for Seahawks games which we watch at home now. Oh & don't forget to try their bacon- so good! They have a great Groupon too! read more

Fischer Meats - Chicken cordon blue - Meat Shops Near Me - Issaquah, Washington

Lived in Issaquah pretty much my entire life and while I have enjoyed meats from Fischer Meats, I had never actually been inside myself until recently. I have been missing out, let me tell you! They are so friendly and have such an awesome selection. 2020 has been a rough year for small businesses and I wanted to do my part of supporting as best I could! I'm so glad I decided to get my meat purchases made here because I was able to buy some favorites but also discover some new awesome stuff! They have a large selection of: chicken (stuffed and regular), red meats, sausages, jerky! I love their Chicken Kiev, cheddar burger patties, and man their hot sauce selection! Lots of goodies to choose from. The staff is so awesome! I will be coming weekly to get my meats from here. read more

Great shop with a wide selection of meats. Quality is most certainly a step up from the supermarkets, with the product priced accordingly. I don't mind paying more for quality food, so likely worth the extra costs. One thing that I found off-putting was a 3% surcharge for using a credit card, and this was on an order of nearly $90. Guys - it's the year 2024. Nobody pays with cash anymore, and I rarely see other businesses tacking on this surcharge. If you were a discount shop perhaps that would make sense, but when you're charging top dollar for meat, the extra 3% just feels like a rip off. read more

Really?!? I mean REALLY. five staff members, one, (the owner?) main guy been there for years with a mask below his nose. Another, not helping customers with no mask at all. Two others helping customers with mask below the nose and only one properly wearing a mask.   You are a food business. You are selling products (jerky/pepperoni) that people are going to put directly into their mouths. And you can't effing be bothered to try to follow state/county/and common human decency health requirements?  Yeah, done. Everyone should be done. If they  are pulling this shit in the wide open imagine what unsanitary practices go on with their cutting surfaces, sausage grinding, food storage. Eff these guys and alerted King County Health. It's been 18 months and you can't even try? read more

I am a HUGE beef jerky lover and I was told i needed to check this place out as their jerky is famous! Alright, challenge accepted! I decided to show up just before a friends birthday party at 6 and decided to grab some of this deliciousness. I walked in and it looked like they were about to close so I hastened my decision. This place has a great selection to choose from. Lots of great cuts of meat, chicken and lamb. The right cooler housed all the smoked meats and sausages. I was greeted by someone and he asked what i wanted. I pointed to the house smoked jerky, the jager, and the pepperoni's. He asked how much and i just said "grab a healthy portion!" So he did and he bagged it all up. He was a man of few words as I tried to make conversation...didn't get much of a response so I decided to keep quiet. He handed me the meat and I paid for it and walked out. I did come back a second time, and i purchased the same thing, ended up being served by the same guy. At this point, I felt awkward and uncomfortable. All in all, the meats were delicious, which is why i doubled my order when I came back the second time. I also had another chance to look around the store a bit. They had a beautiful cowboy cut rib eye that I know would have loved to be in my belly and a great selection of odds and ends on the shelves by the window that included seasonings and sauces. There is also a frozen fridge which carried more unique items like ox tail and other items. This place is great and love that it's local, I actually give the meat selection and quality 4 stars...but how awkward I feel going in there makes me give it a 3. The beef jerky was delicious as was the meat sticks! I actually got a few people hooked on them as I was passing them out and advertising where to get them. Hopefully I can be served by someone else or at some point, crack the silent guy into saying a few words. lol read more

VIOLATING ALL COVID PRECAUTIONS Would give zero stars if possible. Today is Christmas eve, the line is out the door and some of the staff are not wearing their masks correctly or the masks are pulled down under their chin entirely. Absolutely unacceptable. While most of the staff were complying with the guidelines, the few that didn't is enough to make this place a COVID hotspot. read more

So great to have a local, knowledgeable butcher shop. All sorts of beef and lamb cuts. I was able to even get a full slab of beef ribs. Some weirdos were in there screaming to someone about a mask not over the nose. Glad to see them leave. read more

I have been a long time customer here but sadly will not be going back due to their lack of adherence to the COVID-19 restrictions. On my last visit there were people hanging out and chatting with no mask on. When we asked about the mask mandate the employee told us that it is "up to the customer". This employee wore his mask on his chin for the duration of our transaction even after we politely asked him to wear a mask for our safety. As much as we like this place, I cannot with good conscience continue to support this behavior. read more

Remember butcher shops? Remember meat that was fresh and wasn't covered in labels? Hey, remember MEAT?! If you do, go to Fischer Meats. If you don't, give yourself a hug from me and then go to Fischer Meats. Fresh, good prices, super helpful staff and they're local. Stop going to the grocery store and "buying local" packages of meat and support small businesses while getting truly local food. BTW, we had beef cattle growing up: Herefords, Angus and Chianina so I feel I'm a qualified tester of good, fresh beef. read more

I live in the community and wanted to go there. Then I saw this sign... They can't wear a mask during a pandemic and handling food? No thanks. read more

Last time I been here I bought pepperoni sticks. Came home open the bag and it had weird smell, they were old and expired, I threw all of them away. Today gave another try, pepperoni sticks were fresh this time. But I also got their smoked salmon, and it turned out to be expired also! It got weird taste, and smell... The guy tried to get the expiration stickers off and couldn't get them off all the way, I was wondering what taking him so long to grab pieces of salmon from different fridge. Be careful what you buy from this place, always check expiration day!!!! read more

Recently tried their beef jerky in all 3 flavors - smokey, pepper and sweet. The BEST beef jerky our family has ever eaten. The smokey was everyone's favorite. Sweet was good too. The pepper was too much pepper for us. We've been back 3 times now to purchase smokey and sweet. Quality of the meat is a high grade, flavor was superb, jerky was not super dry or tough, excellent texture. It needs to kept in the fridge because it doesn't have the massive amounts of preservatives like store brands. I'm drooling while writing this review. I'll be heading to the fridge to get some jerky after I hit "post". read more

Always great meat but honestly been a blessing during Covid - order online, they text or call when it's ready, you pick up all packaged and seriously their meat is the best at reasonable prices! Shop local, support butchers - can't say enough positives! read more

Finally found a butcher worthy of a 30 minute drive. Great selection of premium meats at reasonable prices for the quality. Purchased a Cowboy ribeye which is like a tomahawk steak and although it was pricey, it was absolutely delicious. Their chicken thighs are also twice the size of what you get at a regular grocery store and definitely a superior taste. What a difference!! Will definitely make this our new "go to" butcher. read more

Big flag inside this business says "respect and support law enforcement" however they themselves are not following the law- a portion of their staff were unmasked. If a food establishment is so partisan that they can't follow mask mandates to protect my health (and yours!) they don't get my business. I've come here for years but no longer. Met Market was able to provide get me every speciality, high quality cut with no politics or complete disregard for our community's health. read more

I have to give a big shout-out to Fischer Meats. Last week I purchased Banger sausages and bacon cheeseburgers and they were delicious. Today I picked up two New York Strip steaks and two huge chicken cordon bleu creations. I grilled the steaks and the only way they could have been better would have been if they had been grilled by an expert. I will get to the cordon bleus in the next couple of days. I am certain they will also be of the highest quality. I will also add that everyone there that I have dealt with is a superb professional. This place is terrific. read more

Great meat selection. Nice employees. No masks and they handle raw meat - no gloves or hand washing. Sorry I'm not liking raw meat on my credit card or handling cooked foods. Yuk. read more

Got a living social and got two things: crab cakes and chicken Kiev. Crab cakes- real crab in there, so for sure amazing! The only thing for me was it was a little too much mayo plus it's expensive ($8.99 per cake), but other than that, loved it. Chicken Kiev- I've never had this in my life, but basically it's a chicken patty that has butter in the middle, so when you bake it in the oven and cut it, the butter overflows to your plate. So. Good. I am still thinking about it right now at 7 in the morning and craving it for breakfast. Service was also amazing- very nice guys that work there. Would recommend. read more

Excellent meat shop in Issaquah. This is the place for lamb chops, steak, and even chopped meat. I have been coming here the past 3 years and love the quality of their beef and service is excellent too! Every Passover I get a lamb shank here for the Seder plate and they give it to me no charge which is so nice! All the men that work here are friendly and so nice. read more
