Their meat is always very good, their sausages are fantastic, they do the usual traditional types and you can taste the quality. Even if you don't come in for an expensive cut, you are going to enjoy what you eat. I like the service, and so do my kids who always come in with me when I go and buy some meat there (they always walk out with a lolipop).

I refuse to put the latter into my body on health and moral grounds. I really like this butchers. It has an old fashioned feel to it, a time warp from the 1950's. The butcher's are very helpful with any questions you may have about where the meat has come from and what is the best way to cook it. I asked him yesterday how to get the crackle crispy on belly draft and he told me that he will score it for me and told me to pour boiling water over the skin before cooking. This will ensure that I get a nice crispy piece of crackling to go with my pork dinner. They sell lots of ready cut and marinated meats that are great for mid week meals. They stock the finest steak or venison for a dinner party. They also offer a wide selection of game birds and will prepare anything you request. I would seriously recommend buying your meat from here and not from the major chain supermarkets. It is healthier and a more humane way of sustaining a diet that contains meat.

Johnstan's is a class act as far as family butcher's goes. For one, they offer 25 varieties of…read moresausage, all which are made on the premises, as well as what you'd expect from a standard butcher and so much more. And all the products and cuts displayed in a way to rival a Selfridge's window dresser's efforts! At Christmas they stock good sized fresh turkeys, and at Winter-time there are whole pheasants, heads, bright plumage and all, hanging from the canopy outside. As I write, it is Spring and the sun is having a go at shining. So I return home with seasonally apt fodder in the form of free-range Spring loin lamb chops for a one-man barbeque.

Lockarts is probably one of the best Butchers shops in the city. The service is unfailingly…read morefriendly and polite and the staff really know their meat. Most of the meat is prepared on the premises and they even make their own sausages from time to time. Their beef and lamb mince is always of a really high quality, as you will see when you cook it and hardly any fat is created. Their best product, though, is their bacon, which is thick and very, very tasty. They also carry a selection of pies and pasties, smoked cheeses, plus sauces and condiments for cooking meat. In the summer they do an excellent range of meats for use on the BBQ. At Christmas and Easter time the queue is often out the door, and the shop is often busy on Saturday mornings, which should tell you that this is a place much admired by the locals round these parts. This is well worth a visit.

Before I start this review I should let you know that I know squat about butchers. However, if I've…read morelearned one thing over the years from various trips with my dad, it's that a good butcher has to be friendly; in fact they have to be positively jolly. That is certainly the case at G.A Lockhart where the staff provide such great interaction with the customers that it seems like something from the distant past, when high streets weren't clogged up with a thousand stores each an exact replica of the last. This is the butcher whom my family have used for years and I can confirm that every Sunday a piece of Lockhart meat has graced our table and satisfied a demanding family of brummies. I don't really know the price of meats etc, I mean as a student the closest thing I usually get to meat is a late night kebab, but Lockhart certainly seems reasonable and they provide good produce. A refreshingly friendly establishment with some delicious British meat on offer.

Unlike most butcher's, Walter Smith's is open of a Sunday from 10am-4pm and its extensive range of meats and cut-price, bulk-buy offers is difficult to match. The store is pleasantly clean on the inside and its displays are always well laid-out and incredibly enticing. Seldom seen delicacies are available on cut-price offers and the store's selection of seasoned burgers and sausages during the summer months is second to none. On a recent visit, I purchased 3 trays of ready-to-cook peri peri chicken for just £5! The meat is always of a good standard, the staff are friendly and the store's wide range of great deals is simply superb. Highly recommended.
