Spot pn
Easy ordering, faultless delivery and an amazing product, what's not to like.
Superb overall quality
Very efficient service! All the meats I have purchased have been top quality! I will continue using The Village Butcher and would recommend everyone who values quality products and quality service to try this company!
Great baby back ribs
Great baby back ribs. Arrived as described on the desired day. Plenty of meat on the bones - a really fun cook!
Galbi ribs setback and how they recover from mistake
Just received my first order, overall it looks good except the one pack of
"Korean Style Beef Short Ribs - Flanken Cut (Galbi) 1kg Pack". I purchased 2 pcks of these, one is fine but another got More than 50% as pure fat (not marble but pure fat, see photo), and I do not expect this given it costs £16 per kg. I see the satisfaction guarantee and quality promise in the company website, and clearly it is more disappointment than satisfaction.
Interestingly, having reviewed the photo, their customer support first claimed that the fat portion is that high normally. Obviously I cannot accept this. But once their care manager steps in, they offer a replacement pack, which is the right thing to do, and I appreciate it.
Would recommend 100%
Never had a bad bit of meat. Their selection of meats for bbq smoking is really good! Would 100% recommend

First time ordering from the village…
First time ordering from the village butchers, was not disappointed, meat was carefully packed with ice bags, sealed and tasted fab, delivered bang on time, highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mixed quality..
Grain fed mince was good quality, sausages and chicken skewers were ok..both a bit boring. The pork chops Inc bone, fat and rind but we're very thin. Not as good as first order..
Good Quality Products Freshly Delivered
This is my second order now because I'm impressed with the quality of the meat of my previous order.
Delivery is prompt and the meat is delivered with cool packs, so nice and fresh.
Will continue to use and I recommend.
Fantastic butchers
Ive had a couple of deliveries from The Village Butchers and am so glad that I found them.
I have tried lots of different meats and have not been disappointed by any of it. Particular mention to this week's products, the lamb kebabs were superb as was the chicken supreme. Both cooked on the bbq with friends and everyone was saying how lovely they were. On top of the wonderful meats, I had a problem with the delivery the first time and they sorted it out promptly with great communication so a fab service on all levels.
Highly recommend!!
I have ordered from you a few times…
I have ordered from you a few times now,the hardest part ordering from you is trying to decide what to order,as the meat always looks and tastes great.i cannot think of anything to complain about,the delivery is always on time.the meat is excellent,I will be continuing to use you and have recommend you to several friends
The village butchers
Hi
I've used the village butchers a couple of times and the meat is generally good one of the items I got was three pork baby ribs that it said on the website were very meaty but I didn't find them as meaty as the picture on the website far from it everything else was good .
Thanks Mick
