Archer's is a really wonderful little butchers located just off Elm Grove. It's pretty unusual for…read moreme to fall in love with a Butchers, as I'm not the biggest meat-eater in the world, but this place is just great! They specialize in game and the window is full of yummy looking homemade pies. I've yet to try one, but I'm betting they're delicious. The owners are really friendly and are diligently there, open early, every time I pop in to pick up sausages for a Saturday morning brunch. The sausages are really worth the trek up the hills...they have a brilliant variety-I highly recommend the chipolatas. In fact, they have everything you need for a really delicious breakfast...organic meat, bakery bread, free-range eggs and locally pressed apple juice....mmm, Archers is one of the establishments I miss most from my days living in Hanover. Every time I pop up to Archer's, there's a little queue of locals picking up milk or eggs, whilst enjoying a friendly chat with the proprietors. It's really refreshing to see an independent ethically-minded business being supported by its community! If you're an avid carnivore and want to know where your meat is coming from, this is the place for you.

I feel it always takes time to get to know local owners but these guys have more banter than a bantersaurus rex so will chat with anyone. I second Sophie on the quality of the food and I can't put it any better than her so read her review. However, just to add that they have received a 5 star award from the Brighton & Hove City Council which you do not see very often.

A butcher right across the street from Smithfield Meat Market - which is the largest in the UK and…read moreone of the largest in Europe - not sure if I need to say much more? The butchers are very friendly, know their stuff and seem to like questions and recommendation requests. These chaps do trade/industry customers, but the store front is based on the busy walk up business by regular customers like you and me. You get a far shorter supply chain without the mass processing centres (and what can go along with that), and the meat sold here is handpicked by an expert butcher and cut in-store which delivers superior quality meat. They have a large selection of meats, and not all of it is on display, so ask if you don't see it. As you can imagine, cutting out several 'middle-men' also means all those saved margins are passed onto you. They also do sell small portions, if you want a skirt of beef, or two t-bone steaks, a single medium chicken, etc. But I've always bought in bulk (2-5kg), then divided it into single meal portions and then into the freezer, and suggest this for maximum savings and minimal trips to Smithfield Butchers. For example, large, good quality skinless, boneless chicken breasts here cost about the same as the basic brands of big name grocers which are small, pumped full of water and inferior quality. The 'steak meats' (e.g. rib eye, fillets, sirloin) are about half the price of big name grocers, and since you're buying a 1-4kg slab, you can cut your steak as thick as you want! Some of the best steaks I've had came from Smithfield Butchers, and the best Christmas Turkey ever! If you can make it to Smithfield Meat Market, this one is a no-brainer.

Organic ingredients...the Best of Kent produce combined with a desire to present meat, fish and vegetables unadulterated by overpowering sauces and a desire for meat and fish to be appreciated at their best seems to be the underlying theme. My companions enjoyed a starter of scallops which they claimed were to be the best they had ever tasted...cooked to perfection. Everyone's meal was a delight and I would rather you found out for yourself than go into detail. I will be adding pictures...Jeff the Head Chef and enthusiastic owner invited us to view the kitchens where their organic products receive tender attention. They do not cater for children's meals but the 6 + 4 yr olds were given a split adult meal and treated like royalty. Both are used to gourmet cuisine and loved the Jerusalem Artichoke accompaniment to their succulent chicken. We were introduced to Pork Collar.......definitely a winner! Enjoy the experience.....
