I can't even make this up, every staff member we interacted with was incredibly rude and…read moredismissive. The employee helping us was not helpful at all and seemed annoyed by every question we asked. I was asking about different cuts of meat, and instead of explaining them, he made faces as if I should already know the answers. You're a butcher, helping customers understand the products is literally part of the job. When I asked about ribs and how many I wanted, his response was, "Well, that's going to be $300," delivered with a sarcastic attitude that made us feel unwelcome. Throughout the entire interaction, it felt like we were inconveniencing the staff simply by asking questions. Customer service was extremely disappointing, and the rude treatment completely ruined what should have been a straightforward shopping experience. I won't be returning and would not recommend this business to anyone expecting basic courtesy and professionalism.

Stopped into Fat Butcher in Lawrenceville expecting just to grab some meat for the week, and ended…read moreup walking out with lunch too because everything looked too good to pass up! It's a proper neighborhood butcher shop on Butler Street, the kind of place that had mostly disappeared around here. They do whole animal butchery with meat sourced from local Pennsylvania farms, and you can feel how much the folks working there care about what they're doing. It's not a huge space, just a display case full of cuts, a wall of house made goods, and a small sandwich menu, but that's part of the charm. The staff were friendly and happy to point me in the right direction. The sandwiches are what really got me though. The smash burger is fantastic, a double patty on a challah bun with that special sauce, and you can actually taste the quality of the beef, which makes sense given the whole operation is built around good meat. I also grabbed some of their house made pastrami, and it did not disappoint, tender and full of flavor. Knowing everything is made in house, right down to the bacon and sausages, makes it even better. If you live nearby and don't have a butcher yet, this is the one.

Love the decor in the shop. There were many prepared food options in the fridge, as well as various cuts of meat/preparations of it. We got two sandwiches, the cheesesteak and the marbella. I dont think we ended up with the correct order because we didn't end up with a cheesesteak, but did not realize until we got home. I'm positive that if I went back to the shop they would've remedied the situation, but I didn't feel it was necessary! The sandwich we did end up with was good as well, unsure which one it was though. Very fair prices, and our dog was so happy we brought him home a bone as well! Looking forward to coming back and trying everything they have to offer.

Since we have lived on Rt. 136 for 8 years we have never heard of this 84 Butcher Shop. We used to…read moreshop for meat at Mike's Packing in Wash. Pa. Mike retired, closed his shop, & we have been forced to drive 50 miles to Washington, Pa. for groceries. Since we moved to Brush Run Road on Rt. 136 we have been trying to find a packing facility closer to home at which to shop. The photos & reviews for 84 Packing described exactly what we are looking for. I'm in the 'market' for meat for a family Thanksgiving dinner, (it's my turn to cook). I am planning to serve an alternative to turkey, "Rachael Ray's Pork CHOPS W/ FIGS & CRANB0ERRIES" as the star of the meal. We have eaten this at home once before & it was delicious! We will show up at 84 Packing early Monday morning for sure. If it turns out to be as good as it sounds we will be new customers. Thanks a million for the information.
