Nice old school butcher. Loads of different meats available, from them, and from Packo's, Falter's, etc. A few prepared items. Cold cases with Der Dutchman pies, packaged meats, snacks, etc. Amish jams and jellies and pastries. One stop shopping for some people, like me. I got a bulk pack of brats, some big premade burgers, and scrapple! Haven't seen that for years. If it's not raining this weekend, I will be grilling. And I will be having scrapple for breakfast at some point. Service was super friendly and fast. The wait was short, midday and midweek. Prices are very reasonable. Pretty easy access, although both the street and the lot can get busy. Mosley's left, Thurn's left, so this is one of the few remaining real butchers in the area. read more

We were long-time Thurman's Fine Meats customers until they closed in May. We began our search for a new butcher shop and were concerned that we might not find a place like the one we had lost. Then we found Schuman's Meats. When you arrive at Schuman's and enter through the front door, you'll notice a red number dispenser to your right. Take a number to determine your place in line. Once your number is called, you'll be quickly helped. This system ensures a fair and efficient service for all customers. At Schuman's, you can be sure that your meat and side needs for any meal, big or small, will be met. The butchers are not just knowledgeable, they are also incredibly customer-centered. We bought pork chops and were asked if the thickness was to our liking; if not, they were willing to cut what we wanted. Their helpfulness and support make me feel appreciated and confident in my choices. Schumans has an extensive selection of beef and pork products, and a delightful delicatessen with a variety of cold cuts and cheeses. While Schumuns does not make its own sausage like Thurns, it does carry a wide selection of Falter's products and Tony Packo's. At Schumun's, you can find more than just meat and deli products. They also stock staples like milk, bread, eggs, a wide variety of condiments, rubs, Tony Packo's pickles, and local butter by the log. This convenience adds to the overall satisfaction of shopping at Schumun's. We miss Thurns but are thrilled with Schumun's Meat. Give them a try. read more

We have purchased quarter sides twice. Can't beat the flavor of the beef from Schumans. Even the packaging is excellent. ​

When I tell you one of my friends took me to Schumer's Meat Market I ain't never go back to the one that's on 5th Avenue which I didn't go there too often because it wasn't clean enough for me. I Schumer's Meats that's a clean place and very busy but they stay on top of things and get you out of there yes should come out and try it and they have the best subs there too read more

This place is AMAZING! Found my Walnut Creek Hot Pepper Cheese and Black Raspberry Jelly. YUMMMM! Sitting under their shade tree eating it as we speak. Service was EXCELLENT! Bob is the owner. Such a hard working man! They are hiring workers starting at $16 an hour. That's a pretty good wage if ya ask me! I think some of our homeless people could do that job once they are off drugs and alcohol! Hey! Love you guys so much! Have a blessed day! read more

I have heard about Schuman's for a very long time. And I finally made my way out to this meat market . I got a few pounds of chicken wings and bratwurst. And the meat was top tier. The service was really good. The way the service works is , you walk in take a number and wait until the number is called. Whichever employee calls your name, they take your order and you tell them what all you want. The price was really good, for the quality and the amount of meat you get. The meat market was really clean. The employees were gloves and just really sanitary. I can't wait to go back and try more meats!! read more

As a BBQ lover, I finally found my source for top notch beef to put into my smoker. It's getting so hard to find any meat merchants that will process beef plate ribs. I walked in, took a number, and within 5 minutes I was standing at the counter and ordering two large beef plate ribs. There were none in the case, but they went into the cooler and cut a 12 pound and a 13 pound rack of beef ribs. I will be buying all of my beef in this store from now on. The brisket in the case looked beautiful so I will be buying my briskets from Schuman's from now on. I have found my home for great beef. They also have so many other great cuts of meat, so I'll be buying my pork ribs from this store very soon. Fast service, friendly service, great meat products. Who could ask for anything more. read more

I loved this place!!!! First timer... on a SATURDAY... friendly lady waiting along side me said (when I told her I was a newbie)..."If your new you gotta get a lot of stuff"!!!' SO I DID!!! $180 worth... for a newbie I thought that was pretty good! Great selections from fresh to frozen... baked items and everyone's Sooooo friendly there!!! I live in Westerville... and I will be back... but maybe not on a Saturday!!!! read more

I have pre ordered Turkeys in past years for Thanksgiving from Schuman's Meats. This year I decided to switch it up. I planned on making bone-in short ribs for Thanksgiving. I knew exactly where to go to get the meat, Schuman's Meats. It is a true butcher shop, that carries quality meats that is staffed by knowledgable and ready to help employees. When you arrive at Schuman's and enter through the front door, immediately look to your right. There will be a red number dispenser. You know what I'm saying, the now serving thing. Remember to take a number. I've never been to Schuman's when there is no one in the butcher shop. You will need to have a now serving number so you will be helped in a timely fashion. You can be sure that Schuman's will be able to fulfill any of your meat or side needs for a meal big or small. I also love that the butchers are always willing to answer any question I have. They know so much more about meat than I do and they do not make me feel inferior for asking. They give great suggestions and make me feel appreciated. As I was looking around the shop while waiting for my number to be called I noticed a couple of staples that I buy often at my usual grocery, but the price was significantly less at Schuman's. Such as the Garlic Expressions, Tony Packo's pickles, and local butter by the log. The prices were so significantly lower that I stocked up. I'm certain I will be heading to Schuman's more often now that I have discovered that price savings!!!! Please consider shopping local for your meats and heading to Schuman's Meats. Don't forget to grab a number. And check out their staples, it may help you save some money!!! read more

Great service, great people, great meat. Don't be scared if it's crowded, grab your number when you walk in and they'll call your number before you know it. Highly recommend. read more

I've been knowing this place since I was a child. You can get just about every type of meat. If you want something that is not on the "menu" like soup bones or something like that, just call ahead of time and they will prepare them for you. If you go on a Friday or Saturday you can guarantee there will be a crowd. I recently went on a Thursday and it was not crowded at all. You still have to grab a number but there was hardly a wait. The workers are always pleasant when I visit. read more

Quality meats and cheese... Excellent customer service... All the meats you want all under the same roof...

First time here today. Should have come sooner. If you haven't been here yet then make sure you stop in soon. Definitely worth a stop. Kim was fantastic! Helpful, nice, she made the experience even better. A great selection of beef, chicken, pork, homemade stuff, deli........a lot to choose from. Schuman's will be a regular stop for us read more

I was looking for a prime rib to cook for Mothers Day and Scumans was spoken of highly. After my visit, i wil definitely return. Service was prompt and friendly, they cut the rib exactly to my desired size and the piece was perfect. The meat was fresh, flavorful and made for a phenomenal meal. read more

IYKYK. The long line and rapid pace can be intimidating at first. Embrace it and deli shopping won't be the same again.

Great family run but her shop in SW Columbus. Well priced, quality meats and very accommodating.

On my first visit to this establishment I was very pleased with the quality and the customer service that I received. However, on my second visit last week I was very disappointed and disturbed about the customer service and poor quality of my meat. My order was filled by a young African American male in his 30's. This man was very rude, condescending and passive aggressive during my entire visit. Now, I can understand an employee having a bad day but this young man treated me like taking my order was a burden. He refused to give me the size oxtails that I requested and then he gave me all improperly and odd shaped beef short ribs as well. I had to cut the short ribs properly myself. He simply would not give me what I ordered. I was furious when I opened my two packages at home. That was a long drive and $80 thrown out the window! VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! read more

I've been shopping at this place well over 30 years. It's the best meat I've ever eaten. The employees are the best. My go to person is Bob he knows how I like my filet mignon cut and all the rest of my meat. Everybody's great and so friendly and they're on top of everything this will be the only place I ever get my meats. Especially my Ground Chuck that you can't get at regular stores. Thank you Schumans for your longtime standing and staying the same. read more

Love love this meat market . I have be going. here for over 35 years they have nice employees. The lines can be long but the quality is good , and the meat is fresh and they have a variety of cheeses . The meats are relative reasonable for now . I recommend the falters hot dogs and pork chops can be cut to order . I love those individual pies from Der Dutchman . They have been around along time and you won't be disappointed. read more

My whole family gets meat here. Friendly staff. They are popular so there may be a wait, but if you go there expecting that you will not be disappointed. Best steaks - especially the beef tenderloin! read more

Service was great friendly staff great prices good value for the money cooked food on the grill fantastic highly recommend

The wait in line is well the wait for great meats,the prices equal the quality of the meats and friendly service.

First of all , the staff is exceptional and the meat is superb. BUT , after having to wait 30 minutes in line for an already prepared pickup order , the order wasn't ready at all. It wasn't even on the books . ( I had called and ordered 5 days prior)They said they would get the meat ready for me . Another 30 minutes. And to my surprise , the meat was weighed BEFORE they trimmed it . I was stunned to see that probably 2 lbs of trimmings ( $40!) was left in their waste can . Great meat, but I'll shop elsewhere next year . read more

I have never seen so much chaios in my life. Walked and got number 78. They were on number 50 and people everywhere. They need a bigger building and more employees read more

Would LOVE to see your website but it won't allow me access. Disappointed because I want to order a box of meats

From Alabama , so it's difficult to find the specific meats that I've been raised on . This place has been amazing for me and their selection is great. Can't beat the quality and prices read more

Fresh cuts of beef, pork and chicken. If you what meat to fed your family. The kind that your grandparents use to feed you with. Then this is the place that you what to go to. Meat with no preservatives and not processed, just Fresh cuts. read more

Amazing employees, top notch deli and superb meats. Very busy but worth the wait. Highly recommend

I understand chicken wing prices have increased but yours ($5.49 a lb)are outrageous - $2+ more than any other place that sells wings. WHY! read more

We live in Las Vegas and get all of our beef, chicken, pork (and other tasty items) from Schuman's. I challenge any butcher in Las Vegas to beat the consistent quality of Schuman's meats. If anyone questions prices, say, for wings, I don't know where you shop but the wings are huge, tender, and tasty and we would pay the same for much less quality in any grocery here. We have had some of the best roasts, steaks, and ribs since we started shopping at Schuman's and don't even get me started on the chicken breasts! Our friends are jealous of our freezers :) The drill: Fly into town, buy enough to last at least six weeks, freeze it, put it in a large freezer pack we constructed, put the pack in a large suitcase and check the bag at the airport on our way home. It all stays frozen and opening the suitcase and pack when we get home is like Christmas morning! Lucky you who live in Cbus! read more

I have been going to Schuman's since I was 19 years old. I am now 64 and I still buy my meat there! I used to live in Riverbend, now I live in Orient Ohio and I still go there. I love the quality of there meat etc. The employees are extremely helpful and friendly! I also appreciate how clean they keep the store! If you have never been to Schuman's you should try it, you will see why I have been going there all these years! Linda S. from Orient, Ohio. read more

Schuman's Meats is a true butcher shop hidden out on the southeast side of C-bus. In theory, I dig the concept of a place cutting meat to order. I mean, I love meat as much as the next guy, but this place is just sort of gross. When you walk in, you're first struck by the smell. What is that stench exactly? All those meats? Gosh, I hope not. I certainly didn't want to buy food after that. After you get used to the smell, you realize that the place is run down and dirty. It's just not the environment where I want to purchase meat. If I want to drive across town for a meat shop, I'll go to Carfagna's. read more

First time in the store a few months ago. It was amazing. My brother and I split a side of beef. Thought it best to load up before inflation really set in. We filled up two 7 cubic foot freezers with a huge assortment of meats. The meats come individually wrapped and labeled, but we had to vacuum seal them ourselves, which was okay. We probably have a years worth of meats each. I highly recommend Schuman's to anyone who will listen. They've got a ton of other products cheeses, baked goods, spices etc to go along with every meat you can imagine. The staff was awesome, the products are beautifully displayed and I really enjoyed the hustle and bustle of a very busy store. Apparently it's not a big secret in Columbus. Thank you everyone at Schuman's for the wonderful experience. read more

Stopped in here yesterday with my husband. Haven't been here for years as I used to come here with my parents years ago. The place still looks the same as I remember it as a kid. Yes you have the butcher smell (duh!) when you first walk in the store, but you will have that. We looked around first before we took a number. Prices were reasonable on all the items. We picked up a ham hock, ground beef, steaks, lunch meat and cheeses for around $40. The young guy behind the counter was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back. read more

Disregard the guy from Canal Winchester. He has no idea what he's talking about. This is one of the Great Triumverate of German butcher shops in Columbus, the other two being Thurn's and Schmidt's. All three started in German Village, but after a while Schumann's moved to 3-C and Thurn's moved to Greenlawn Avenue. Schumann's German roots are evident in the quality of their meats. Every cut of meat is American or Canadian beef of the highest quality. They also carry Ohio beef. They have some house specialties, like their fresh, handmade submarine sandwiches. John, the current owner, is virtually a family friend now since my grandmother purchased her meats here about 20 years before I was even born (his father and my grandfather had a business relationship until they both retired). If I weren't moving out of state, I would continue the family tradition. John is always in the store, and he's always making sure his customers are treated well. The staff is made up of people from the neighborhood. Some of my schoolmates from high school work there now. In every way you could possibly imagine, this is a family establishment. Canal Winchester called it a stench. I honestly don't think he's ever been in a butcher shop before. I've been in several, and they all smell like this - and it's a good, comforting, if-I-stay-here-any-longer-my-stomach-will-eat-itself smell. It smells amazing in here. I really don't think high-quality meats are supposed to smell anything but delicious. They're always busy during the dinner rush and on weekends. It's especially busy during the first two weeks of the month when people come in with their food stamps. Grab a number as soon as you get in the door. It's a system that has never failed and you'll be given the stink-eye by other patrons if you don't grab one. You might be in there for an hour or so, but don't get mad and walk out. Everyone on staff is doing their absolute best to get everyone in and out as fast as they can without sacrificing customer service. Again, disregard the guy from Canal Winchester. He's not a local, and he's obviously never been in a real butcher shop before. read more
