Was sent here from Soko in Takoma Park cuz they told me Harvey would have what I needed (a pork loin shoulder skin on for my mama's first attempt at making pernil Dominican style). And they did not disappoint. We made that shoulder on the 25th and it was breakfast, lunch and dinner right on up to the 28th, where it got broken down into the best tacos I've had at home. I can still see one of our guests with the juice running down his forearm to his elbow, all thanks to the fine people at Harvey's Market, with a recommendation from the fine folk at Soko. All that running around DC for a pork shoulder for my mama paid off. Thanks Harvey!! read more

After hearing all the hype, i finally gave in and ordered a cheesesteak. I kept it simple but added mayo and provolone. I just don't get what all the fuss is about. The high quality of the meat is evident and the caramelized onions were good, but I didn't see or taste the cheese and the entire sandwich begged for salt, as it was extremely bland. It's a great size, but that's not enough of a reason for me go back. read more

Harvey's Market - Where's the cheese???? And I added provolone to the whiz. No evidence of either. - Meat Shops Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I absolutely love this place! The new manager/owners are much friendlier! The sandwiches are HUGE and prices decently! I have had anything bad or nasty! I also don't know anyone who doesn't like this place! I have purchased meats or anything but I'm sure it's amazing! It's a neighborhood spot so it's super convenient! It's inside on union market in the back so there's no private seating and it's pretty loud but typical for the market! read more

Holy moly what an unexpected find. I got a French dip, and it was pretty good. Packed with meat. My girlfriend got the Philly cheesesteak. Packed with meat, onion and delicious cheese whiz. It was sooo decadent and delicious. I'll definitely be back again and will be getting that. read more

I had to come back days after ordering. I think it was the clever. First Sammie on the top left. Almost went for the og. So delicious. They take some time but it's worth it. Fresh ingredients. Friendly service again. Deli meat is grade A+ read more

Wow what an amazing sandwich! It was packed with meat but you could still bite it without everything falling out. It is located inside of Union market which is such a vibe with all the different food options. The sandwich was ready super quick too which is a plus, so 10/10 service. read more

Everything inside Union Market is consistently delicious so it's no surprise that Harvey's Market is cranking out some amazing deli sandwiches! This time I went with the roast beef sandwich, it is a fairly classic roast beef sandwich but the flavors are bold. From the juicy, tender, thin sliced roast beef to the creamy horseradish sauce it was all perfect. read more

So good!! Me and a friend stopped by and got an Italian sandwich to share and we were so glad we shared because the sandwich was huge! Everything was great from the meat to the bread to the condiments, and even better it was priced pretty decently too. A must try if you've ever stop at Union Market! read more

When it was Harvey's Market the butcher was very good and reliable. now the new butcher is not so.

LOVE LOVE LOVE these guys! They always have the weird off-cuts that I'm looking for, whether they are in the case or in the freezer or cut to order. Saves me a ton of time driving all over tarnation looking for these things and keeps my recipes popping! read more

Great place, great food and wonderful friendly people. Meats are top quality and delicious. Well worth the money. Try the ribs, you won't be sorry you did. My next trip there will be for steaks. Can't wait read more

I bought a steak tonight that was so delicious. I am a loss for words to describe how good it is.

This butcher is located inside of Union Market in the back right corner of the market. They have tons of meat, all types of cuts and they will cut it for you the way you like it. I wanted to get my dad a Tomahawk steak for Father's Day, I called ahead the day before to make sure they had it and they went ahead and cut one off for me to pick up the next day! I figured it would be a decent sized steak but boy was I wrong, when I went to pick it up I saw in the case this gigantic Tomahawk, the largest I've ever seen, I should've took a picture but with the virus I try getting in and out of places as quickly as possible! They greeted me immediately, showed me the steak, joked around & I was on my way! The steak was HUGE and delicious, I need to get my meats from them more often! I recommend everyone come to this butcher! read more

I haven't been to Harvey's in a few years. I'd usually get the fresh rabbit which I always loved as well as other meats. When the area suffered from a fire and the neighboring stores were closed, that's when I stopped going. Didn't realized that the store had reopened. I will be shopping there this weekend. read more

Love George and best meat in DC. Outstanding! Always a pleasure to see the team and if you rather be delivered it is also offered to you

Excellent meat market in DC for your specialty items. I was looking to purchase a brisket and called to make sure they had some available for the size I wanted. The man I spoke with said I could come by and he would cut the brisket size that I needed. I ordered a 4 pound flat brisket with the fat trimmed. I was very happy with my purchase and the customer service. As I was checking out he offered me some tips such as the temperature that the brisket should be when it's done. The price seemed reasonable to me and they have a great selection of other meat. Harvey's Market is located inside Union Market. I had no trouble finding parking outside. I look forward to coming back very soon. read more

Harvey's Market is one of DC's oldest butchers nestled in the back of Union Market in NE DC. It's open when the market opens and offers any meat you can imagine from prime rib to pig ears. The meat you buy here will be a little more expensive than at the grocery store, but it's also better quality, more tasty, and you can enjoy Union Market. read more

Located inside of Union Market Harvey's is the perfect place to pick up relatively local meat the is fresh, without hormones, antibiotics. They have a LOT of different products. Beef, pork, chicken, duck, rabbit, you get it. They also have organ meat and fat grinds, bone broth, and they make sandwiches. They have some meat pre cut but are happy to go in the back and cut something for you on the spot. They also have a large selection of dry aged meats. So for Valentine's Day we picked up some dry aged filet mignons that were already nicely tied up. We also got a small bit of Japense Wagyu which is pricy but it's Japanese and it's Valentine's so we splurged a little. The meat is vibrant and the staff is kind, curtious, and knowledgeable. The only place that comes close to Harvey's in my book is the Organic Butcher of McLean but Harvey's has much more variety. We will absolutely be back to pick up more things. read more

It is astounding to me how few butchers there are in DC so it is wonderful to have finally made my way to Harvey's. While there I stocked up on lamb for easter, got a whole duck, and osso bucco. Great selection of items. It was quite pricey but that is to be expected due to the lack of butchers in the city and their location inside Union Market. I felt that their staff were rushed and pretty snarky in a way that I didn't appreciate but also in a way which was not a reason not to go back. read more

Super friendly customer service. Hands down the richest, most delicious bone broth ever made! So good you can warm it and sip it on it's own. read more

My husband and I purchased two ribeyes and two filet mignons here on 2/15/20 for a fancy dinner. We spent over $100 on the meat. As soon as we opened the filets, an intense odor of bad meat filled the kitchen. We instantly knew that one of the filets was off--there was an odd brown coloring that was instantly visible and different from the other filet. We cooked the filet just to see what would happen--the smell remained and we had to throw it out. We also had to take the trash out because the rank smell stunk up the kitchen, to put it bluntly. My husband emailed Harvey's the next day to inform them of the issue, but he never got a response. So they sold what was visibly bad meat (and the smell was unmistakable) and didn't have enough pride in their business was to do the right thing for the customer. This is not a quality butcher shop. read more

I decided to try this place when I was buying milk at Trickling Spring. In my support local businesses I had been hunting for a butcher shop. I bought some spicy Italian sausage. Bought them home, cut them up and cooked them with rice. The flavor was good and there was a nice bit of spiciness. They were $9.99 per pound, a bit cheaper than the Red Apron shop a few stalls down. They've got all sorts of cuts of meat. Premade burgers made from grass fed, hormone free cows, the most delicious looking thick cut bacon I have seen. Give this place a try! Go local. read more

Went for the first time yesterday and got some picanha and some grass-fed lamb. The service was top notch. I chatted with George who was incredibly friendly and told me a little bit of their history. He has been there for 40 years! I grilled the meats and they were absolutely incredible. I didn't put much seasoning on them, the picanha was steakhouse grade and very juicy. The lamb however, was the best lamb my girlfriend and I have ever had. We are excited to have found our new butcher shop. read more

Huge portions and the meat is impressively fresh. The cuts are amazing. My corned beef Reuben was $14 and came with kettle chips and a pickle cut. Tons of meat on the sandwich. That said, I was the only person in line when I ordered and it took more than 20 minutes to get my order. read more

If I want to make an authentic Jewish style dish, I travel to Union Market to get the meats and accompaniments from Harvey's. There's always someone knowledgeable behind the counter, and they have items that other butchers don't have. For example, I wanted to make authentic chopped liver, and not only was Harvey's the only place that had fresh chicken livers, they even had schmaltz in a refrigerated case. Perfect.! read more

We shared a pastrami reuben. It was grilled to perfection and everything was marvelous. A little pricey at $14 but we shared and that makes it a better price. For that price you do receive a crispy yet gooey wonderful sandwich and a bag of chip read more

I love Harvey's Market! This butcher shop has been around since '31; holding a rich history, they have a spot in the Union Market and offers a variety of cuts - pastured beef, grass-fed and grain-finished, dry aged, naturally raised, and free range poultry - all from local farms (Roseda, Copper Penny, Polyface, Wagon Wheel Ranch, Rocky Meadows, Shenandoah Valley Lamb, Langenfelder, and Gunpowder Bison & Trading Company). I love how the butchers, George and Marty, both personally visit these farms, striving for top selection and healthier choices. I was able to chit-chat with Marty (!!!), and he was very patient and informative on the different types of meat that they had - it was just so awesome in how fresh and lovely they all looked!!! I purchased some ribeye and some Cheshire pork chops (those pork chops were AMAZINGGGGGGGG - so fresh, so tender, and SO JUICY!!!), and I can't wait to go back and continue being their regular customer - be sure to stop on by from Tuesdays-Thursdays, between 4-7PM - they have a 'HH' discount special going on where you get 10% off :D The chicken skin, the bacon, the young chicken, and the sausages all look fantastic, so I'll be checking those babies out - I'll be back :D +ask for Mr. Marty :D +fresh meats and poultry :D +no antibiotics/hormones +supports local farms +HH discount specials - 10% off between 4-7PM, Tues-Thurs read more

We buy meat products from Harvey's pretty regularly now! If you're wanting really great quality, this is the place to go. If we're making a huge pot of red sauce, this is where we purchase our sausage. My bf also recently purchased a pound of beef, which was on sale for Veterans day. He thought the quality was really good. They have a wide variety of meats + cuts for all of your cooking needs. read more

Harvey's Market - Meat Shops Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Excerpt from the tales of Living in the Age of Coronavirus: I've started getting into bone broths as a way to boost my health and what started as utilizing chicken carcasses in an instantpot has now sprouted into a true love of fragrant and sumptuous broths (which, you can essentially substitute in any dish that calls for water and is 100x better than the canned stuff). So, my friend who has been a broth man for years tells me about Harvey's because it matters where you source your bones. Located in NE DC's Union Market, this shop sources "locally" (MD VA PA and DE) and all their meat is organic/grass fed/non-GMO/etc so you know it's gonna be top quality. Everything looks so good though, I bought boneless beef bits for a stew once my broths finished. Harvey's offers many different types of cuts of meat from bacon to ribs to sirloin and strip steak. You'll likely find lamb, veal, beef, pork, duck, chicken at the counter. Everything is brightlit and presentation is clean. They are probably a bit more on the pricey end - I paid about $30 for ~2/3 weeks worth of broth* between ox tail, marrow bones, and knuckle bones. (*TBD) Covid-19 update: Harvey's is working with delivery app "Mercato", but are also catering to walk-in clients. Their hours are fluctuating (today, Friday they are open until 7pm), so just call ahead to make sure you can pick up the order if you walk-in. And bring a facemask! To enter the union market you need a facemask, there's a yellow vest guard at the door ensuring its the case. read more

Amazing quality meat and impeccable service. Everyone was engaged with the the customers that were waiting in the line. I was offered help by two different people ultimately served by one. He was assisted by another woman who worked at the front counter. She was very polite and informative; they were able to slice and clean up the meat that I wanted to my liking. Quality oxtail and the best price in DC. read more

My name is Meredith and I visited Harvey's Market once again to buy fresh guanciale pork to make a delicious spaghettis carbonara . I had another superb customer service experience today. Lenny and Joe greeted me with a friendly smile, professionalism, expertise and extremely prompt amazing service! They even cut the guanciale for me the exact same size that I needed per the recipe I was following. Their dedication to excellent customer service reflects great credit upon themselves and the Harvey's Market brand! They are the epitome of excellence and true professionalism. Lenny and Joe deserve the biggest raise and recognition for his amazing friendly service and professionalism! My rating is 5 stars undoubtedly and I will be back consistently. I highly recommend this butcher shop for excellent prices and meats! They truly care people and are community centered! :o) read more

I really like this place. They are friendly and the quality of the meat is great. They also offer a wide selection including hard to find meats that may not be available at your local grocery store. Price-wise they are reasonable. It's cheaper than Whole Foods but not a steal. read more

I haven't actually been on-site, but my lady was in the area and picked up some ground lamb kabobs for dinner - they were delicious! Each skewer had the right amount of meat. The ground lamb had seasoning, fresh herbs and fresh garlic chopped generously. The flavors were great. Not too salty which I was concerned about based on my past experiences with other uncooked kabobs from other establishments. Prices were reasonable, $8 for two skewers. I can't comment on service, but would love to come back and experience Harvey's myself! read more

This butcher is located inside of Union Market And it is worth the visit. They have a variety of meats, some of which you can't find at Whole Foods or Red Apron. If you want a specialty meat, such as beef belly, they can special order it for you. read more
