We lived near this butcher and they were the friendliest business around. On one occasion I rushed…read morein right before they closed hoping to purchase their delicious chicken Milanese for my daughter. They had none left and the display had been put away. One butcher proceeded to make an entire order of Milanese from scratch. And from scratch I mean he butchered a chicken, filleted the breast and breaded it. As he handed me the fresh Milanese he said it was also his daughter's favorite meal so he had to make sure my daughter had her favorite dinner. Old school values in a modern butcher. My daughter still tells this story to her friends.

As per the previous review they are increasingly selecting organic meats and boast a lot of celebrity customers. Meat is carefully selected and it is also the chosen butcher for a lot of the well off in Fulham and neighbouring Chelsea. You know a good butcher by the queues that form outside at the week-end and this one has such a queue. Not cheap but if you are looking for friendly service and quality meat this is one the best around. Good selection of pickles and chutneys and olive oil etc and they also supply game.

Love this butcher…read more The staff are happy, knowledgeable, and their prices are absolutely fantastic! having bought a huge piece of pork belly enough for 4 people for 7quid, i don't think ill be getting my meat anywhere else. Even if they don't have what you're looking for in stock, you can special order most things before 4pm and get it the next day around noon (you will have to pick it up). All in all, great produce, great staff, great prices.

They also sell fresh eggs - to my surprise when I got them home they were all double-yolkers! Great value! We got a couple of nice tender lamb chops one week, a rack of lamb the next. The boys will give you suggestions on how to cook it if you want - just be careful when you go because it can get quite busy for example on Saturday mornings.

I can't say enough good things about this place. I'm fortunate enough to live about a 5 minute…read morewalk from the place, but even if I lived in East London I wouldn't hesitate to venture down here to buy my meat. The quality of their produce is top notch - for example, one Sunday lunch my sister bought a whole lamb shoulder (over 2 kilos) to roast for a few hours. Between the five of us, we ate THE WHOLE THING. It was just that good. I don't think I could ever describe lamb as being more-ish, but none of us could stop. HG Walter offer a comprehensive selection of meats including the lesser known cuts, game and special items every week (seasonal animals, specialty meats such as rare-breed pork etc.). They have a large variety of sausages (usually more than 10), really tasty burgers (particularly their lamb and mango one), and some pre-prepped stuff such as marinaded chicken breasts, kebabs, and prepared quail. Also, if you ask for them, they'll provide you with very cheap bones/carcasses for stock making which makes some damn tasty stock. They also sell eggs, some pretty decent local vegetable produce, some cheeses and deli items (a small pate selection including their excellent pate campagne, olives, olive oils, and a variety of condiments from companies such as Tracklements and Seggiano). Although the place is always busy (they're open until 7 which is perfect for the walk home), as mentioned by Vikki the line diminishes very quickly. The staff are great, they're always friendly and helpful. If you're not quite sure which cut to buy, they'll ask you how you're cooking it and will offer an appropriate suggestion. Likewise, if they're out of stock of one thing, they'll suggest an appropriate replacement (and not just upsell more expensive cuts). Shopping here is an absolute pleasure. In terms of price, it's not cheap cheap but cheaper than the some of the big name butchers in London. Their cheaper cuts are great value when you consider the quality - the belly pork is one of my staples at 7 quid a kilo and I find I can just about afford it on my PhD stipend. In conclusion: as I said before, I'd happily travel across town to shop here. A very enjoyable shopping experience and that's before you've even tasted their food. One last tip: their Scotch Eggs are absolutely OUT OF THIS WORLD. Trust me. The crunchiness of the breadcrumbs, tastiness of the oniony-sausagey inside and the soft egg. They're a total steal.

Skewers of marinated meat, stuffed chicken breats, gorgeous varieties of sausages (I can reccomend the chilli, but be prepared for some big heat!), and a chock deli section complete with luxury cheese and unbelievable pork pies. Also shelving behind with top quality dry goods and jars, and a small area of organic vegetables outside. And if you want a summer treat, get one of their handmade burgers, a ciabatta roll and a barbie. Sheer bliss!

Just like in the US, there are lots of hot dishes and cold meal options to choose from in the self-serve area. Healthy options and some favourites, like mac & cheese and even cod bites! Highly recommend and not everything is as expensive as I expected so it's definitely worth checking their sales. Their soups are great too!

Despite the size of the store, it was well laid out and easy to find what I was looking for without the need for staff assistance there was also a dedicated area for Amazon orders and returns, with Amazon of course owning Whole Foods.

You can ask to try anything on display (they are more than happy to let you do so) and then buy by weight. Try the Muscat jelly too, great for topping off the perfect cheese. They also offer an online delivery service if you're buying too much to carry home (hey cheese is heavy you know!) and a really useful 'Ask The Expert' page where you can e-mail them all things cheesy.
