The Food Emporium is a lovely little delicatessen in Pudsey. It has a lovely enticing shop front,…read morenot to mention, a decent name, which is something I feel to be important. It sells local produce, with cheeses (though try not to be put off by the tub of Philly in the lit counter-bar), but what's more is that there is a vat of homemade jam behind the counter. I think that there is a real lack of delis in Leeds that sells its own home-made products, so The Food Emporium really gets a thumbs up from me.

Wow, I just love delicatessens like these. Just divine. The name 'emporium' is always a winner too…read more- it suggests, and rightly so, that extra edge of class. They sell all kinds of delicious deli delights, the things you might expect, but nothing you can imagine will compare to actually purchasing a beautiful sandwich of theirs! They sell some lovely cheeses, they are *purveyors* of European bread (yum!), they sell continental meats, speciality home made sandwiches and offer a great sit in experience if you want a delicious tea or coffee. It really is one of those 'must visit' places in Pudsey, which has it's mix of good indie and bad indie haunts. This one is definitely on the plus side, down to earth and delightful.

They were reasonably large, a really reasonable price and have been supplying me with a delightful boiled egg for lunch all week! Nothing beats a decent boiled egg... If I hadn't been in a rush to come home I would have stopped for longer to check out their awesome chutney selection - they have all manner of amazing pickles and jams to choose from! I've still yet to sample the award winning pies, but next time my friends, next time. A really lovely butchers, and perfect if you would like something that varies from the usual fare. Perhaps next time I shall branch out and try making something new and exciting! Nothing beats a decent butchers!

Alan Morton's butcher store has the name 'Butcher's of Distinction' - a bold title, but one that it…read morethankfully lives up to. Located halfway down Town Street and opposite the new super-sized Morrisons which has a Butcher section itself, Morton's has long been a favourite of many loyal locals in Horsforth. Supplying customers with fresh choice cuts of beef, lamb, pork and chicken amongst other meats, this place is a must if you're making a Sunday roast. If you fancy a real fry up, I would also recommend Morton's for its selection of bacon, sausage and black pudding. Perhaps the most important aspect of Morton's, however, is it's participation in the Three Dales scheme, offering customers the chance to buy the finest meats (in Yorkshire) while also supporting local farm businesses and getting one over on the supermarkets. Hurrah!

Very disappointed, my wife bought a large ham joint for Christmas, we like to buy British and…read morelocal, we had a similar joint last year and it was delicious and as my wife works in the area she often brings home produce from this butcher. How ever when I came to take out the ham from the bag my wife brought it home in I could not believe my eyes when I viewed a factory packed piece of Danish ham! The sign on the side of the shop says farm assured meat. We could have gone over the road to Morrisons for that. Never again

This is the best takeaway on the planet. Apart from the fish and chips they prepare a large…read moreselection of mouth watering dishes. Their kebabs in naan bread, cooked in seconds as you watch, are loaded with grilled meats, salad and a selection of sauces. Such is their generosity they have the appearance of a butcher's shop squeezed between two bread vans. It is not simply the quantity as the quality is huge too. Try the massalla fish or the kebader kebabs, gorgeous!! They also prepare grilled marinated whole chickens or lamb finished off on a hot plate with fried onions served again with naan and salad. What could be healthier, grilled meats served with fat free naans, salad and a selection of yoghurt based sauces. Absolutely delicious. I've visited this takeaway frequently for the last six years and never been disappointed. 5 stars all the way!!

This is a fantastic butchers in Pudsey. I came in here to get some braising steak for a stew I was…read moremaking in the evening, whilst out in Pudsey with my Mum, and was again really impressed with the standard of meat. The shop was buzzing when I went in, though I was served within a few minutes so I had time to take a look before deciding. All four of the guys in there were working hard, making sausages, weighing meats and refreshing the stock. The meat was really reasonable, around £3 ish for a huge bag, which was meant to feed three in one meal. Unless I'm stingy with my portions, I actually found that it lasted for two stews feeding five people in total! So, for around three quid this was a complete bargain. The meat itself was utterly delicious - simply 2 hours in the stew and it literally melted in the mouth. It was fabulous and not in the least bit tough! All in all I highly recommend.

I selected the cut that caught my eye, and when I got it to the kitchen I was not disappointed! Well cut and not very fatty at all, I commend them on their skill! The prices were good, worthy competitors with nearby supermarkets. Service with a smile is always a bonus, and the lads in this butchers were very kind and friendly!
