I've never seen a butchers in my whole life this busy and this is because it is a very good butchers, especially when you consider it in terms of value for money. Prices start at just over £3 per kilo for ribs and the first boneless item comes in at just under £4 per kilo for some pork shoulder. As you move up the quality of the meat the price remains very good value for money as it moves up with the quality and this is what makes this place so popular. Put simply, this is one of the better butchers in town.

From having a 5 min healthy discussion on preferences of wing-tip sirloin and ribs of beef I was given a sneeky peep round the back. These guys provide the beef for the best steak places in Glasgow. I'd eaten at one of them earlier in the week and my eyes were bulging at the trays of chateaubriands and rib in sirloins. So, as you'd expect, their meat is very well sourced and as good as you're going to get anywhere. I took a1kg 1rib Angus and pan roasted it in butter and wilted rosemary to get a good sear, then a quick 15 mins in the oven. I had it sat on some roasted beetroot puree with a port, wine and fresh beef stock reduction and the beef was some of the best I've ever eaten. Superb quality and ageing. Week after I wanted a lamb rump as I had the hunger for some dauphinoise. They were happy just to prep some up straight away, no fuss. The lamb was delicious........as was the dauph ;) ........and the sausages. Get the Italian fennel ones and slow cook cook them in your tomato sauce for pasta. Very, very impressive. Prices are as you'd expect for meat of this quality. Look on the window for weekly £10 deals. Steak and chicken. Well worth it.

First to review? What is going on, Glasgow Yelpers?…read more This JOINT rests unassumingly on Byres Road and claims to be purveyors of fine meats. They are indeed. Walk by often enough, but was compelled to go in today noticing the £10 offer which includes 2 sirloin steaks, 2 pork loins, 4 steak lorne sausages and 4 pork sausages. And if that doesn't make you want to go as well, you're either a vegetarian, or just plain ole crazy (yes, those are different). Nice decor, welcoming, with a good layout and professional staff. Excellent selection of all sorts, including lamb burgers that are absolutely getting destroyed next visit. Delighted with my purchase today and will return. Enough said.

Cooking suggestions and ideal cuts are recommended on inquiry, and in a friendly manner. QUALITY: From taste, excellent. From looks, also terrific. CHOICE: Plenty of different cuts and meats, and a few pies as well. This butcher is excellent. I usually find myself buying meat from the supermarket on the logic that it is cheaper. Wrong. For better quality cuts I would find myself paying either a fraction more than in a supermarket, or indeed less. Coupled with the advantage of knowing where and when the meat has come from is a good mind-settler. Then, of course, there is the advantage of the advice that the butcher himself has to offer. This is one of the reasons that a butcher is always better than a generic meat counter in a Tescos. I ask which cut would be best for a grill with sautéed potatoes and stir-fry veg and I receive top-notch advice. I ask what would be the best way to cook a shoulder cut of beef and I am told in useful detail a few ways that would work best. Perfect. I agree that for those with a slight nervous disposition around raw meat would not find butchers an ideal way to buy (perhaps because it looks far too much like a real animal if it isn't sealed in plastic first) but I must insist that if buying meat, this is the best place to go.

Well worth the trip just to stock up on sausages. Everything else, the quality of the meet has been great. I've recently purchased a sous vide machine so anything that can be slow cooked for hours is going from Crombie's butcher straight into my machine for hours on end. One thing, it's expensive compared to what you'd get from the grocery stores. I've found the quality to be way better but be warned- it might put a dent in your wallet.

If you mention this place to any self respecting Edinburgh carnivore, they should acknowledge you with a contented sigh ("ahhhh, Crombie's") and a wistful look in their eye. Their sausages are widely regarded as amongst the best in the UK and they supply lots of local restaurants with them to keep the punters happy. There are many different varieties to choose from and they range from the traditional (pork, chipolatas, Scotch beef) to the exotic (boar, pork and stilton is an inspired and tasty combination). Asides from sausages, they do the usual butcher cuts of meat (steaks, lamb etc) and meals for you to heat at home if you can't be bothered cooking. Most of the meat is locally sourced and everything is incredibly good quality. It's just a shame that they close at 5.30pm, far too early for those of us with office jobs.
