I've bought an amazing lamb rack, steaks, sausages and short ribs from here. All of which have been outstanding. Firstly, the sausages. Crombie's are famous for them! And they are delicious. Well worth the trip just to stock up on sausages. Everything else, the quality of the meet has been great. I've recently purchased a sous vide machine so anything that can be slow cooked for hours is going from Crombie's butcher straight into my machine for hours on end. One thing, it's expensive compared to what you'd get from the grocery stores. I've found the quality to be way better but be warned- it might put a dent in your wallet. Great selection of marinades, ready to cook pies and other savoury pastries, and service is always friendly and helpful.

Crombie's is the best butcher in Edinburgh and luckily it is located just around the corner from my…read moreflat, hurrah! If you mention this place to any self respecting Edinburgh carnivore, they should acknowledge you with a contented sigh ("ahhhh, Crombie's") and a wistful look in their eye. Their sausages are widely regarded as amongst the best in the UK and they supply lots of local restaurants with them to keep the punters happy. There are many different varieties to choose from and they range from the traditional (pork, chipolatas, Scotch beef) to the exotic (boar, pork and stilton is an inspired and tasty combination). Asides from sausages, they do the usual butcher cuts of meat (steaks, lamb etc) and meals for you to heat at home if you can't be bothered cooking. Most of the meat is locally sourced and everything is incredibly good quality. It's just a shame that they close at 5.30pm, far too early for those of us with office jobs.

I always knew there was such thing as good meats and bad meats, but until I came here I never…read morerealised you could get meat this good. It's not the cheapest of places to buy your meat, but I think even Scrooge would spend a few quid here every new and then. Once inside the shop the range on offer is vast and all very tempting. The staff will generally ask you what you want, but don't feel you have to refrain from browsing they won't rush you with your order so take your time to find what you want. Whilst many of the goods aren't that cheap the entry level goods here are still of very high quality and unless you really want to treat your taste buds should suffice. All in, this is a high end butchers that really delivers on quality.

This is my regular breakfast, so I'm glad to buy most of my future porridge here. It's within easy walking distance of the city centre as well as residential areas such as Bruntsfield and Morningside. It looks like they sell excellent quality meats and there always seem to be regulars in here to purchase their meats.

It's only natural, as a butcher, that whenever I'm in another city/town/village and I see a butcher…read moreshop, I am magnetically drawn to it feet first. This is a beautiful little shop, very clean looking that supplied a lot of very fine looking traditional Scottish cuts. Their main raw meat counter was splendidly well presented with prices clearly shown and the counter not too tightly packed, sometimes giving you too much to look at and confusing the customer in the process. The gents that were working here were very polite and didn't mind me looking around the shop but not wanting to buy anything although I easily could have spent a LOT of my wages in here. More so on their pie/cooked counter, with items from mince pies and haggis/gravy pies to sausage rolls and mince rounds available to purchase. Locally produced jams and vegetables were on offer here too which was a very nice touch, cementing this butcher as a vital part within the North Berwick town centre.

The first thing that struck me about this place is how busy it is. They've 3 staff here, yet…read morethey're always busy and there's always a queue, which is always a good sign for a shop. I've never seen a butchers in my whole life this busy and this is because it is a very good butchers, especially when you consider it in terms of value for money. Prices start at just over £3 per kilo for ribs and the first boneless item comes in at just under £4 per kilo for some pork shoulder. As you move up the quality of the meat the price remains very good value for money as it moves up with the quality and this is what makes this place so popular. Put simply, this is one of the better butchers in town.

They have a chiller with a variety of pre-prepared meats, including Irn Bru sausages, which were on offer 3 packs for £11, or about £4 each. The staff were super friendly and chatty.
