Although Cotteridge is a fairly busy shopping area (you can't call it a High Street as such as the…read moreoutlets are shoehorned either side of a couple of small roundabouts) there aren't that many shops to chose from. It's a surprise therefore that it can support two independent, family-run butchers shops. This one is slightly better than the Peter Gumbley outlet around the corner on Pershore Road and also doubles as a deli, with a fair selection of meats and cheeses. This place starts and finishes earlier than its rival around the corner, and if you go in after 3pm you are more than likely to find them clearing up for the day as they close at 4pm. All in all, though, a very good butchers.

This is a good quality butchers and I have been in here a few times and always left feeling happy…read morewith my purchases. The meat is all British and the guys that work there are very friendly and willing to help. I have often asked them for cooking advice and what cuts of meat they would recommend and they have always been helpful and informative. The prices are moderate, if not a little pricey, but that does not bother me as I know that the meat is fresh and is of a high standard. It is also very clean and tidy inside, which is a good sign for me. There has also always been a queue when I have been in which shows the popularity of the place. Overall, I think that this butchers is worth a visit if you live locally or are just passing through.

I was most surprised by the selection of roasting joints they have on offer here. I bought a large side of beef for a Sunday roast and some pork scratchings for the journey home. The pork scratchings were delicious and everyone enjoyed the beef on the day I cooked it. If there is a piece of meat there that is too big for your occasion then they will cut it down to a more ample size for you, no questions asked. I would be happy to come back here again because the quality of the meat is so good. I'm fed up with pre wrapped meats in supermarkets so I need a good selection of butchers close to my home. This one has ticked all the boxes.

It is very swish, with sliding doors, marble floors and big screen TVs behind the counters. Don't worry though; the staff are true Cradley Heathens - warm, friendly and down to earth. They jokingly tease me for being "a bit posh for around here", which is quite the compliment for a girl from Coseley. The fresh and locally reared meat is excellent quality, I'm a big fan of their smoked streaky bacon. They will happily order in more obscure cuts if you ask in advance. The best thing about Scriven and Thornton's has to be the deli counter. It is piled high with all sorts of cooked meats, pies, cheeses and Scotch eggs. They also serve the most incredible hot pork sandwiches - complete with crackling, applesauce and bread dipped in gravy. Understandably, the queue gets big at lunchtimes.

The first organic butchers in Birmingham (I remember it being a big deal!) the quality is superb. I always found their cuts to be good and never heard any complaints from anyone else either. Their various sausages were my breakfast choice, absolutely delicious! I have it on good authority that this is still the case and the fact that they are still going strong after all of these years is testament to the fact too. I'll get back to my tofu now, don't tell the other veggies I was reminiscing about a butchers!

The quality of their meat is second to none - thye were Birmingham's first organic butchers and are still (i believe) the only butchers in Birmingham to be registered with The Soil Association. you can tell how popular and good they are by the huge queues which can be seen over Xmas when people are queuing up to collect their turkeys/beef/(insert here whatever meat people eat for Xmas!). Its also worth noting that you can order your Xmas products online. Whenever ive gone in the service has always been very cheery - even when theyve been packed to the rafters, and the staff are always willing to give advice on how long to cook things for, best cuts of meat etc. The meat we have had from here has always been superb, if, like i said earlier, somewhat pricey - but lets face it, you pay for good quality. Definitely worth a visit when you have some spare cash floating around!

From meat to chicken to pork sausages, these are some of the things you will find here. I have brought some sausages and cooked them at home.

Again the chicken itself was excellent and I have no doubts I will be back. I do have to travel some way to get to Handsworth from West Bromwich but it is worth the travelling because I know I am guaranteed quality food from here.
