Would 100% recommend this place to anyone! I had heard about it a few months ago and went to get…read moresome meat, I never knew that food could look so good raw! They marinade all kinds of meat for different meals and they all look incredible. I always tell people about it here because the staff are so friendly and helpful! The first time I went I was spoilt for choice and couldn't quite decide and a really friendly guy helped me out and asked what the occasion was, what kinds of things I like and told me to get the lemon and garlic chicken it was divine! I also have tried the salt and pepper ribs and minted lamb shank all absolutely incredible. The reason I chose today to write a review is the pork pies are meant to be incredible so I ordered my dad a large pork pie saying no1 dad on it, fab gift and not pricey! Definitely worth a try!

On a Saturday afternoon visit to Glossop we went on a hunt for some fine fine food - with my wife…read morealready declaring how good Mettrick's supposedly was when we drove past in the car. Another fine local business institution - a proper butchers shop with 3-4 different counter areas selling everything from meats to pies, fresh bakery bread and supplies to keep you going such as chutneys and jams. Now I'm the sort of the guy that come even a hint of chilliness in the air has to revert to Sunday lunch being 'Full English Roast' time and now we're into mid October a juicy piece of beef of pork was on my shopping list! I was impressed that at Mettrick's there were so many options in terms of what you could buy with me performing a full 180 and going for some oxtail for (1kg was £8 Oct 2014) a stew (my half made up West Indian oxtail slow cooked stew was awesome by the way...) The staff were friendly, said they could pretty much order anything I ever wanted in which was really refreshing in this day and age of cheap supermarket meat. A definite winner - hopefully I'll be picking up some bacon and burgers next time I'm in town!

The Gabbotts Farm Stockport is situated at the front of merseyway shopping centre in Stockport,…read morenext to Argos. They sell cuts of raw packaged meat which are great value and have started doing ready to cook full meals too that go straight in the oven, I picked up one this week for tea while in stockport shopping and was really inpressed, cooked in a foil tray which can be thrown away so less washing up, it included the meat (I had Chicken breasts), Potatos and the Veg. The best bit about any gabbotts farm though is the cooked food counter where they sell roast chickens, chicken portions, gammon joints, chinese sausages and hot roast sandwiches. These taste great straight out of the bag whilst shopping and just as good when you get home reheated. The prices arent bad and the quality of the food is good. The staff are fast and helpful and genuinly friendly.

For far too long I've been buying meat from supermarkets, due to convenience and cheaper pricing…read more Had it not been for my folks back in the Dale converting to shopping at their local butchers and me tasting the difference in quality, I'd have carried on regardless. Now living in Sale I'd been informed of Taylors by a couple of friends so left the chicken and red meat off my 'big shop list' and headed into Sale Moor one Saturday afternoon. Parking in the free car park down Warrener Street, it's just a short walk round the corner. It was full of customers inside but they have plenty of staff so it wasn't long before it was my turn. If you didn't know exactly what you wanted you might feel a slight pressure to make your mind up quickly, especially on busy days like this one. The selection on offer is mind-boggling, from choice cuts of beef and poultry to oven-ready products. They have one of the longest well-stocked display counters I've ever seen in an independent shop. I opted for four chicken breasts (which the butcher kindly diced up for me), gammon steaks and beef for a stir fry. All of this was ~£15 which is more expensive than the supermarkets, but as they only stock products from local farmers you know it's worth it. Tip: they accept payment by debit/credit card.

This is a top notch village butchery with top notch customer service so it won't surprise you to…read morehear its top notch prices. So ya pays yer money and makes yer choice. Give me this place over any supermarket butchery counter any day of the week. Just because it's a supermarket doesn't mean it's cheaper, not where quality meat is concerned and we need to think on about supporting these community places as they are part of the fabric of villages like this. The quality and the selection of local meat is superb, whether it's their great shop made proper pork & beef sausage selection around £9 a kilo, their great lamb through to fillet steaks at the upper end of £35 a kilo. It's a small butchery, 4 or 5 customers would fill it. Its popularity is best seen in the lead up to Christmas as people, including me, queue up outside for our festive meats and the free refreshments as we stand in the chill. There is some car parking at the rear too.

Cheap eat Monday this week, which is a thing I've just made up, is courtesy of Gabbots, in the…read moreArndale centre. Although it says it has a new name, the plastic bag (no charge) it came in says Gabbots, so Gabbots it is. Situated near, but not in, the Arndale Food Markets (more on those another day) its a handy place to get away from the hipsters of the Northern Quarter and just chow down on some straight up food. Theres all the meats, and at least 2 types of chips available from their hot food counter, and you don't need to worry about if your food comes on a plate, as its all takeaway in plastic containers. Theres probably some bull in there as well, but refreshingly, no bullshit. The first thing your going to notice about Gabbots, it is almost impossible to tell what they serve, as the heaving mass of meat eaters obscures the front of house. Peak a look through the crowd, and you'll spot what you want. You've got all your basic meats, sausages, burgers, chilli con-carne. If your feeling in a healthy mood, you've got your chicken option as well. Its not one for the vegetarians. I make a compromise and go for the 'Zinger' burger, any resemblance to any other chicken live or dead is un-intentional. I pair it with curly fries, which may also be referred to as salt and pepper fries, a bit like the Chinese salt and pepper seasoning, but not quite as nice. You've got to know what you want by the time you enter the queue, it always looks long, but they don't mess around at Gabbots. I imagine its close to the atmosphere on the trading floor at Wall Street. Before you know it your asked if you are being served, and you don't want to still be deciding if you want some chicken wings on the side. You need to be decisive. Do you want butter? No. Salad? All of it (I'll pick the cucumber off later). Stick me some mayo on the burger, and ketchup on the chips. Grab a can of your chosen fizzy drink, diet for me, got to watch the calories. £3.80 all in. You grab the bag and a plastic fork and your off. Now your thinking, I don't want to go back to the office, I'll probably get asked questions, its really difficult to seem like you care when you've got a Zinger burger and fries to think about. This is where the second part of the trading floor is. Head to the Food Market, dodge pass the crowds and try and find somewhere to perch, or if your lucky sit. If you play your cards right, you'll negotiate your self the prime real estate of a window seat. Its not quite the Hollywood Hills, but it gives you something to keep your mind of what bullshit you will entail on the return to work. I end up with a chair, but only a view of Panchos, which makes me wonder if I should have pushed the boat out and stumped up £6 for their hefty burritos. But I'm content with my faux KFC and curly fries. It might not be Michelin star, but you know exactly where you stand with a Gabbots, and you've got change from a fiver. You might get a half with that later in the week. Overall: Three hundred and eighty pence out of five english pounds.

I love The Butchers Quarter - every time I come here I'm greeted with so much enthusiasm and joy it's just so refreshing! The guys who work here are clearly passionate about meat and they can answer pretty much any question that you have. They offer advice on how best to cook the meats that you're buying, how to prepare them and how to get the most for your money. They'll let you know where the meats have been sourced - all from local farms - and give you anything else you want to know. The gym pack is £35 which is what I buy on a weekly, sometimes every two weeks, basis. It consists of 10 chicken breasts, 2 pork chops, 2 rump steaks, beef steak mince and beef stir fry. I always but sausages from here too! You can also get wines, cheeses and cold cuts from here - so you can tick off half your shopping list before you leave. The meat is premium quality and I know this because it doesn't shrink when you cook it. It's excellent. It's a must go for your meat!
