Pape Meat - High quality steak! Please support this lovely local business. - Meat Shops Near Me - Millbrae, California

Very nice shop on the inside and a wide selection of meats to fish. Came in here and was impressed with their selection of charcuterie and their meat. They had beef that was pre seasoned for those who dont like to be creative with their steaks and also really nice red fresh looking plain beef steaks. The meats were all fresh and not oxidized. They also had a selection of wagyu that was beautifully marbleized in a vaccum sealed bag. In a separate case they had fresh seafood selection from shrimp to sea bass and salmon. Also if you're looking to pair something with your dinner they have a selection of wine. 1 stop shop to a great dinner. If you're also looking for an appetizer you can also make a charcuterie board with meats and cheese and jams. Be creative and try different pairings. read more

Bought some aged ribeye steaks from here. Accidentally over cooked them instead of having them medium rare but even then they were still really good. The meat quality here is amazing! Don't forget to grab some truffle butter to smear on your steak read more

We have been buying meat here for the last 3 years being recommended by a friend! Love it! Such great quality of cuts! We got 30 day dry aged ribeyes, A5 waygu, and more! Service is amazing, very attentive workers! read more

My mom loves this place. She says it's the best place to get meat because it's so fresh and tastes much better than Safeway. I can always tell when she makes a steak from this place read more

You want quality meat? You come HERE! Delicious meat and even the seasoned ones are great as well!

I have been wanting to go to this butcher for a while, and last weekend I had the chance (and excuse) as I just got my bonus! So I decided to treat myself and my family to a little bit of quality meat. I ended up buying some lamb chops and American Wagyu short ribs. The meat counter service was great and friendly. I will definitely come back and buy from them again. read more

I walk by this place often. After yet another recommendation from a friend, I finally walked in. Incredible meat, poultry, and seafood selection. I live with flexi-/pescatarians and am excited that I have found one local butcher for everything. Efficient customer service. For very fresh meat and fish, the prices are better than some local boutique grocers. Pape's is conscious about social distancing and have markers on the ground to separate everyone. I walked out with a few things to try from the seafood, poultry, and sausage sections. Very excited. read more

Best meat in the Bay Area. They have a huge variety of premium cuts including wagyu beef and dry aged beef. This is the only place I buy my steaks now. Kobe tenderloin is a must try. Freakishly large prawns are also good to try, and kurobuta pork make great pork chops. And if you are unsatisfied or have any issues with your purchases, you can count on them to make it right. read more

Awesome service and great quality meat and always fresh! They even have a great delivery service if you're in a rush and can't wait in queue ! read more

SOLID place! I love steak and my friends recommended this place to me, I've been here about 3-4 times now to pick up meat and each time the quality has been great and service has been amazing! The butchers are friendly, patient, and helpful. I also really appreciate how clean they are compared to other butchers I've been to! If you like cooking your own meat I definitely think you should check this place out! They also sell wine if you are looking for some booze with your meat! read more

Attentive, knowledgeable employees. Delicious meat! I bought two pounds of rib eye steak for myself on a Saturday and it was all gone by the next night. Here's a link to Google's Popular Times graph: https://www.google.com/search?q=pape+meat+millbrae read more

What a great place for fresh and good quality meat! I've been to Pape a few times before and have never been disappointed! This past weekend, I got the marinated lamb chop and boneless pork chops. The marinated lamb chop was seasoned so nicely and when cooked, it was so tender! As for the boneless pork chop, I couldn't be more pleased as well! The quality of the pork is also very apparent! Similar to many other grocery stores, Pape is also maintaining social distancing. Be prepared to wait before entering! However, the staff is very friendly and patient. It's definitely worth the wait! read more

Ye meat lovers, come grace this store! Heard about this place and been meaning to hit it up when I'm on this side of the peninsula and Boy! was I glad. Parking is definitely a challenge but their small parking lot has good turnover (I felt a little guilty leaving my vehicle here to go to the Taiwan Fruit Tea, but the drinks erased this!). This is truly like the butcher shop of the past where they only specialize in meats (and seafood) with full service. Unfortunately, such places can only exist where clients with discriminatory palates and demands recognize $ with service.... In any case, I was helped by a junior butcher(?)--as he seemed to ask for help from his colleagues). I went with an aged ribeye and ordered some ground pork (All their porks are from the Japanese breed Kurobuta which for snooty ppl is really wonderful pork). The butcher helped me vacuum packed into two 1-lb packages. They also have vacuum packed Wagyu beef (I believe America-raised?). Got home and readied the grill. Butcher was helpful to note to me that the salt-and-pepper seasoning should be only about 5 mins and cooking should be shorter than normal, due to the aging process. Followed his instructions and... I never want to go back to regular steaks! The aging breaks down the fibers leaving a much more tender steak. Alas, at $26 per lb., I would need to make it an occasional feast (and stick to Costco in the interim--or do you guys have other tips....). Attached is also a wine/spirits shop. Seems to have some hardcore drinks that likely match well with the meats. read more

I bought a four rib prime rib for a dinner I was hosting. No doubt about it, Pape Meat is where you must go for high quality meat. The prime rib was tender, juicy, and very flavorful. My guests all asked where I got the roast. Highly recommend. I have another dinner coming up, and will make a return trip to Pape Meat. read more

It was a great experience shopping here during the holiday. I'm going to bake my own ham this thanksgiving! Of course, you cannot find pork leg at local supermarkets where they don't even know what you are talking about? "You want to make your own ham?" Then, I went to Pape. Ryan know exactly what I needed. He ordered the uncooked ham(pork leg) for me, and had it ready to pick up on the next day! How wonderful! I'm going to have my happy thanksgiving dinner! read more

This place has great customer service, really go out of their way to explain things to you. Are extremely helpful, and so far I've loved the quality of products I'm able to get here. I have tried their lamb rack, and I love that they can vacuum seal it for me to Sous Vide ready to go. I've tried their Japanese Kobe tenderloin steaks, they were definitely worth the money. I'm glad they even carry it as it's near impossible to find in the Bay Area. Glad I found this place. I'm trying out their dry age process with 20lbs of ribeye that I purchased. I can't wait for the results. So far only two weeks into the aging process and it's killing me to try it when it gets to 60 days. I've also enjoyed the osso buco that they have unlike other shops where I'm only able to buy it frozen. This place has fresh quality ingredients, and a great wine selection. read more

Amazing place to get top quality meats. The chicken legs and thighs are where it's at. Phenomenal ribs (ask them to cut the membrane). If you're looking for a special occasion have them tie up and vacuum seal a tenderloin roast covered in their house seasoning and let it sit in the fridge for 2 or 3 days before cooking. Thanksgiving turkeys are a must. read more

Great 1:1 service...attentative, detail oriented, and took the time to answer all of our questions. Got the Japanese wagyu. Requested a thicker cut, split into two servings plus ice and some trimmings. read more

Best butcher around the bay! Most of the senior staffers are so experienced and friendly.

If you are in the Millbrae area and you're seeking some high quality meat, Pape Meat is the place to go. Before you enter the store, you know that you are entering a quality meat shop because there is a huge display of aging beef that have already been reserved. I happened to be looking for some quality pork belly and the butcher behind the counter was extremely helpful. He even informed me that they are able to special order "lesser" cuts of meat upon request (with a few days notice). I opted for the Berkshire farm pork belly which turned out amazing. Pape Meat also has a more wide selection of meats that you would find in your typical supermarket along with beer, wine, and spirits. read more

White meat,dark meat it doesnt matter! If youre looking for a fineee piece of meat, this is the place! I had the most amazing berkshire pork chop in Chicago and was trying to copy the recipe. Well guess where i found that amazing piece of meat? At Pape's!! The butchers here are not only funny but they are personable and knowledgeable. Ladies, the quality of meat matters.. like our men read more

After being in this relationship for more than 5 years, learning about each other every 4-5 days, and hearing stories of our food adventures, finally brings me to this question: How does one break up with their current butcher? Here's my updated review after 5 years of getting to know each other and pushing one another to strive for better quality meat. Many things have changed: *Pape's now started carrying Wagyu, something that they didn't, but I constantly asked many many times in the past. *They also upgraded their pork selection to include Birkshire (kurobuta pork raised in USA). I've talked to both Ryan and Guy many times regarding taste of pork and they found Birkshire to take things up the next level. *I've shared a story of my trip to New York and dining at a restaurant that had $250,000 worth of Dry Aged Beef. I've asked them why they didn't carry Tomahawk cuts. Guy was hesitant but weeks later, tomahawk was in the case. It wasn't just a regular tomahawk, the beef was from American Wagyu breed. Now they are experimenting dry aging tomahawks. These guys work hard to provide what the customers look for. I've never expected many of these to be in the case of a local butcher shop. And because of these new improvements, I can't help but brag to people of my shop. My buddies always ask me where I get these meats and ask for recommendations, I send them here.... Tips: - Seasonal crab is great.. Find something that's 2 lbs and ask for washed and cracked service. - Sea Bass is awesome for chinese folks who like steamed fish. - If your a big shabu shabu/hotpot fan.. You can tell them to slice the Wagyu beef to thin slices. I promise you'll never go out for hotpot again. - Truffle butter is a must with your grilled beef. Be sure to see the pictures I've uploaded, guaranteed you'll drool for some meat. read more

Stood in line here and they ignored me skipping me over for two other people - will not return. Sad because I was going to order the Waygu sampler. Discouraging they don't treat all customers the same. read more

Quality meat. Fast and friendly service. I highly recommend. I like that you can place an order ahead of time for pickup.

I had the best first experiencing going to a high end meat company! My man, Rob, gave me a proper introduction of the facility, including showing me where they dry-age meat in the back. I was in awe of everything going on that I needed time to process everything and figure out what I wanted, time, which they gladly gave me to make a decision. I left with an Australian wagyu strip and a dry aged ribeye. Cannot give them a shot. Thank you Pape's and thank you Rob for being a star!!! read more

Pape has amazing customer service and meat selection. I was trying to find a specific cut of beef in Belmont/San Carlos area without luck since the end of summer. The supermarket butcher told me to try Pape. Although there was a 15 min wait to get in, I was rewarded. Their super friendly staff offered to cut my meat just the way I wanted and told me this cut is always available. I am going to be a Pape Meat customer for a long time. Their liquor department is also worth mentioning. They have specialty bourbons and whiskeys not found in your garden variety wine and beverage superstores. 5 Stars for Pape!! read more
