Very popular among the local residents and very much a family run business. This butchers offers hot food from its deli counter during the day, unusual bottled drinks, cheeses, sauces, meats as well as great bargain hampers for family feasts. The butchers has won many awards of excellence such as The Bridgestone and The Guild awards. The master butcher, Nigel McCreery, boasts a family history of more than fifty years in the trade - and the skills certainly show in the well run establishment and the tasty produce. I noticed a bargain hamper for families which is something I have never seen before. A chicken, steak, mince, burgers, eggs and more all for just £20.00 - no wonder this place is always busy and has been going so long.

I don't have a problem with organic food. The idea that something is reared under a non-chemical…read morebased feeding structure and is generally created in as loving a way as possible is a good thing. I do have an issue with the word organic being slapped on everything to ensure it's accepted by the middle class consumer and sold at an inflated price. Luckily in this case, Mullan's farm seem solely interested in producing top of the range meat. This little butcher/farm shop towards the front of the market sells everything from corn-fed chickens (producing that lovely yellow skin which crisps up very well when fried) to venison and beef. I left with half a dozen eggs the last time, slightly more pricey than Mc Carthy's egg stall across the way but they were still great. I ended up using them in a spinach and goats cheese soufflé, very tasty and I recommend it.

I imagine there's a whole generation of kids who've never seen a carcass hanging up on a hook in a butchers or seen one of them expertly separate meat from bone. Anyways, enough of my meat nostalgia, Premier Meats is a small yet brilliant butchers tucked away up on Castle Street. They have all the usual cuts plus a whole section of marinated specials which always look delicious and are pretty well priced. The guys who work there are really pleasant and always are offering advice either to do with the preparation of the meat or a predicted football score. Quality stuff. Pros: Great service, good quality meats. Cons: A bit off the beaten track.

First things first... go try the steak!…read more OK, so once you've tried it, tell me, will you ever find somewhere with such good quality for such a great price? No way, me thinks not. Go to, say ... Sainsbury's, one premium steak there £12? OK, At Orr's ... It's £2! The quality elsewhere won't be any better, not by a mile and you've just saved £10 at the local butcher. Handy! Go buy a bottle of nice wine or a bunch of flowers, whatever tickles your fancy. It's win, win, win! Orr's stock the best of the best. I would munch down on chicken olives if my life depended on it as long as they were from Orr's. Try their pork and leek sausages...I won't buy them from anywhere else! It's just a let down once you've tried them from here. Same goes for their chili sausages. The same probably goes for everything they sell. If I had the time and or money I'd have worked through it all by now. If I ever manage to do this I'll be sure to let you know. Though I'd maybe have died happy if I accomplished this. Family run, high quality butcher. Local produce sold and replenished daily. Beautiful, tasty, out of this world meats. Go now, you won't regret it (unless maybe you're a vegetarian? In which case, go right next door!)

I hadn't been down this far in a long time, and whilst partaking in a mammoth picturing-taking…read moresession, I found myself drawn to a street I hadn't even been near in months. Stuck in the middle of a wide variety of old-looking shops is a fantastic little butchers, one which should (but never will) blow every supermarket and chain store out of the water. With every cut of meat you could possibly want, this place had a queue of about ten people waiting to get served. Anywhere else that would be deemed bad service and you would complain. However, a long queue in a butchers is a healthy thing because it shows that people trust it first and foremost, and don't mind paying over the odds for some great food. I would definitely recommend it, not solely because it sells some really top quality meat (especially the steaks) but because it is much better to support local produce rather than processed rubbish that gets shipped in from somewhere dark and dingy.

There were tons of people, both locals and tourists, walking around enjoying the food, drinks and items each vendor had to offer here. The place was alive with live music playing, as well as a school group performing dances in one area and a band playing in another area. The vendors were super friendly and we got to try samples of a few different things before we decided to buy a couple things to nibble on while waiting for our hotel to let us check in. There were a ton of different vendors and at this place, I had one of the best bao buns I have ever had, filled with curry chicken! Prices amongst the vendors seemed very reasonable and I ended up buying a couple cute little magnets one vendor had to offer!

The market was very busy, but I did go at lunchtime on a Saturday…read more The first stall I went to had loads of fresh hummus, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, etc. They also had big chunks of focaccia, soda bread, Guinness bread and fresh garlic bagels. At the recommendation of the lovely woman working there, I got the caramelised onion hummus and smothered it all over the garlic bagel (the best thing ever). I also got the sun-dried tomato pesto, which I nearly ate in one sitting. If I lived here, I would be at this stall every week! There were some cute stalls with local vendors selling souvenirs, artwork, and jewellery. There were also quite a few stands with cookies, pastries and sweet treats. These all looked really good. On the other side of the market, there was a lot more hot food. They had everything from tacos, mac and cheese and large portions of fries with various toppings. Everything looked really good and the beef taco from Med Mex was delicious! The sauce was to die for. Definitely worth the visit and might pop back in before I leave!

I love butchers and sadly its a dying trade, leaving the supermarkets to take over with their lower quality and (as Emma P notes correctly) slimy meat! There was a huge selection on offer and they had prepared a lot of products themselves. Marinading kebabs and ribs ready to be cooked on the barbecue. I got Rib-eye steak which was quite expensive, but it's not something I will buy all the time and its quality was worth the price. A great local butchers that, if I do move to the area, I will use regularly.

It's a very smart premises, it invites you in with the impression of cleanliness and you get the feeling it's a well run business that is very concerned with meeting the needs of its customers. The men behind the counter know lots of people's names and are really friendly - full of chat and banter. The meat is great quality too, and they have lots of offers on especially at BBQ time - when the meat is flying off the counter faster than they can put it out. Only downside - the parking is a bit of a nuisance, but that's a minor point and not really their fault.
