At one counter we're the butcher seemed to understand my plight aNd recommended that I check out the Big Red Market in Thorold. I did and was I impressed by the cuts of meat readily available. I ended up leaving with a Blade roast, a Beef brisket and a Corned Beef roast from a barrel. Needless to say I'll be back again soon for something else to enjoy making - in 3 days I've already cooked a corned beef dinner and a Chinese Beef Brisket stew with Daikon Radish. The possibilities are wide and varied indeed. Thanks for the great service - Be back soon.

I had given up on RJs as it was hit or miss as to whether my sirloin was edible or shoe leather. A…read morefew weeks ago I tried and lucked out with a nice steak. Yesterday bought a sirloin and marinated it for nine hours. A jackhammer wouldn't make a dent in it. I should have clued in to the reason it was on sale, but I'm pretty naive I guess. Burned enough times that I won't go back.

We ordered: Beef & Shrimp Tartare Denver cut Steak Burger Calamari We thought the service was good. Unfortunate that they were out of a few things when we ordered, but they made some very redeeming suggestions to help us get through the day. All in all, we felt like the place lacked a little 'nmph!' to the food, especially at the price point. It was a little disappointing with such raving reviews.

I want to give a big shout out to Richard's Fine Meats in St. Catharines I'm extremely impressed…read morewith how they've handled things and I wish more businesses would adopt the protocols these guys used from the start: 1) Full stock itemized online; 2) Order via phone/messenger; 3)Order is bagged and ready for your pickup; 4) Pick up at the door, without going inside; 5) touchless payments accepted; 6) Acrylic panels at the door help separate the staff from the customers; 6) Still able to flex and make last-minute changes to orders; 7) Giving staff the long weekend off! Well done! Cabbage rolls are awesome. Burgers are fantastic!

I'd heard rave reviews about Richard's so I bought a big chicken there for Thanksgiving dinner. It…read morewas tender, juicy, meaty, lots of leftovers. So last month I bought a 4+ pound chicken, from the same store, same price per pound. The small amount of meat on it was tough, dry , and the "white" meat was an unappetizing beige colour: obviously an elderly soup chicken. I called the store about it. No sympathy. She just repeated that they all came from the same source. Given these these odds, I won't shop there again!

I've only been here once, but my first impression was positive. The store was clean and organized,…read moreand the products looked like good quality. It was apparent that they focus only on high quality products so the variety was less than what you'd see at larger conventional grocery stores. The cashier was friendly as well and helped us bag our items. I'd definitely come back here again the next time I'm in the area.

We sampled some delicious Mediterranean food as well as sausage and cheese and took some home.

When ordering, his butcher will custom cut if you only buy a 1/4 cow when others won't unless you get a1/2 -or more. They also dry age 21 days and sometimes longer but depends on the meat and what the butcher feels is best. The steaks and roasts have an incredible meaty flavour which makes me wonder where the flavour goes from supermarket meat? Please take your time when choosing what you put in your body. Get to know the farmer and make wise choices. We have tried a few different beef farmers in the area and Cartwright is by far the best value and quality we have found to date.

They serve a large loyal customer base of discriminating consumers! The meats are of the highest quality, and are very reasonably priced. On this day, I found them to be less expensive than TOPS for the same cuts of meat. They stock their sausages and meat sticks in their meat store as well as all the ingredients to make your own sausages at home. They're well known for their butchering service as well as custom bulk orders. I found the facilities to be extremely well stocked with tasty and nutritious foods. On the day that we visited, Falconer Meats was hosting an event called "MEAT US IN THE COUNTRY". Vendors were selling handcrafted items and farm stand produce. There was a BBQ food truck as well as an ice cream food truck. A winery was offering samples! It was an absolute delight to meet the nice folks from llama Adventures at Buffalo Creek, displaying their animals, as well as some of their handcrafted llama fur items. They are well known for their llama events, including birthday parties, weddings, family, reunions, etc..
