Clarke's have a really good selection of meat wehther you like it sliced, diced, chucked, minced, casseroled, braised and the prices are not silly. The pork, beek and lamb I have bought from there has all been from Wales. The mince meat I had looked low in fat. Lamb is always my favourite. If you are not a great cook, its very hard to go wrong with a pre prepared lamb kebab on the skewer with different coloured peppers. Their home made beef burgers are just 70p each. They are more than happy to give you the meaty facts if you want to go in and ask about what you are buying. Bon appetite.

What can I say about Clarke's butchers in Allerton. They are so helpful and always give me advice…read moreon how to cook my meat. If I want something that they haven't got they will always try and get it for me for the next day. The hot food counter is always busy but everything tastes so good it's worth the wait. The Scouse is definitely my favourite. Thank you Clarke's for making every visit special.

A good honest butchers with reasonable prices and service…read more They are serving the good people of Orford so they are not competing at the top end of product range or quality. They also sell veg and tinned produce. I'm not sure how much real butchering they do nowadays. I've asked for some lesser known cuts and have been told they don't do them. The back of the shop where most of the work is done is blocked off and I never trust what I can't see. (That is no reflection on hygiene, just my preference) They do source lots locally so should be commended for that All in all it does what you'd expect of this type of shop.

This is truly a family butchers, as most of the family are involved in the day-to-day business. They would deliver to us in time for the afternoon cooking session even when my wife forgot to order until after midnight! (They have an answerphone and act on the night's messages first thing in the morning. The few times we were even slightly disappointed in something, it was changed immediately. I would recommend Houghton's to any business interested in local, good quality cuts of meat.

The Scotch Beef Shop specialise in Aberdeen Angus Beef, but it's not just for the cow lovers. They…read morehave a great range of lamb, chicken, free range eggs, pork and the rest, all sourced from high-quality Scottish companies. Let's get down to brass tacks here; the sausages. Black pudding, pork, streaky bacon, brown sauce and some secret ingredients... yep, they sell all these in ONE sausage. The Breakfast-all-in-one. Think of that explosion of flavour between two pieces of toasted granary bread. Mmm. The minted lamb grills and chinese barbeque burgers would be fab for the next barbie too. They even have thick rich beef gravy, which comes in glass jars, lining the counter so forget Bisto, if you're buying your beef from here, go the whole hog (/cow?) and get the grandest gravy to go with it!

As well as beef, they sell other prime cuts of meat such as lamb, pork and chicken. With experienced and friendly staff to help, there is a professional approach to their trade. I would recommend their award-winning sausages; you have to try them to believe why they deserved the award. Very good quality indeed and some of the best lean sausages I have tasted. This is most definitely a top range butchers with a clean and fresh appearance (not grotty like some) and pleasantly laid out.

I have been to the other Hollies Farm Shop in Warrington but the other day I went to this one in…read moreTarpoley, which I believe is the "original" one. Its a big place with a cafe/restaurant, farm shop and a barn "shop" - which is currently a Christmas barn. Not sure what it would be when its not near Christmas. Although it was still October when I visited, and still seems a bit early (ish) for Christmas stuff and especially a whole barn of it. But it was really nicely decorated and lots of nice stuff. Almost enough, but not quite, to get me into a Christmas mood. Since it was near Halloween, there were lots of pumpkins about outside. I liked also how they sold "mis-shaped" pumpkins - so less waste. Still perfect to use if you wanted to use to make e.g. soups. We didn't go into the cafe but it was very busy with several people waiting for a table. The actual farm shop was big with fresh meats, lots of veg, cheese, a deli counter etc. Lots of lovely stuff. And also lots of samples of free food - brilliant. Samples of crisps, breads, cheese scattered all round the shop. Really nice place and if you are in the area, I recommend popping in.
