Quality

Efficient, easy ordering process. The meat I’ve eaten so far seems to be of excellent quality.

All good

Service was good, as usual. I really like slow cooking cuts of meat and the occasional promotions for carcass balancing are particularly good value. The quality of the meat really does make a big difference!

Great product, crap delivery

The meat and the ethics are great, I was so happy to find this company, it’s great quality let down from terrible packaging/delivery. My meat was regularly arriving warm and spoiled. Customer service is not great, a bit dismissive. I can’t afford to waste meat, money- animals lives so have cancelled our regular (big) order

The chicken I ordered was absolutely…

The chicken I ordered was absolutely delicious, the only small downside is the chicken is fed corn, if it wasn't Id give 6 stars if I could (although id rather a bit of corn instead of soy, growth hormones and antibiotics, thanks I shall be ordering again shortly.

Great quality steaks

Great quality steaks, unfortunately they arrived 2 weeks early. My previous order was excellent quality and service so hopefully this was a one-off problem.

Meat is quality and tasty

Meat is quality and tasty. Unfortunately one part of my order was missing. It was delivered a few days later without quibbles but obviously it's better to get all the order when expected.

Very good quality products

Very good quality products. Fast delivery. I've been ordering for over a year and have never been disappointed. Prices are high compared to supermarkets, but it's worth it.

The flavour & texture of their meat is so good & customer service excellent. They ran out of one of the small items in my delivery & so called to let me know. This is really important when you’re relying on ingredients for a specific recipe.

Happy returning customer!

We’ve ordered several times from Ethical Butcher over the past few years. The packaging is always great, the meat is fantastic, and it’s a great way to stock up the freezer and try out some more unusual cuts. We’ve never had a bad batch and the flavour is fantastic!

Beautifully tender

I have only used one pack from my first order - cubed lamb pieces - but the meat was superb. No water at all was given off when I browned it before adding to the stew vegetables. I look forward to trying the osso bucco and minced lamb.
