We were able to find a table to eat in. The dining area is cozy with a fireplace and shelves full of stoneware, bowls, and other kitchenwares for purchase. We ordered the cheeseburger, hot chicken sandwich and fries. The burger was cooked perfectly with the in-house made burger sauce. My husband lived the thigh chicken meat buffalo sandwich. The buffalo chicken was not overly spicy but provided a nice heat. Fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned. On our way out we bought an American Waygu Denver steak, tallow, and lard which we cannot find at our local butcher. The steak cooked nicely in our cast iron but it was not a buttery or melt in your mouth as Japanese A5. I also recommend stopping by the coffee shop for a cup and pastries. The brown butter chocolate chip cookies was soft and delicious. The brownie was rich and decadent

Great burger and cool store!…read more Came on a Sunday afternoon for lunch, split a burger and fries with my husband. The burger was massive so plenty to split. It had a great bun and a delicious burger sauce. Definitely a smash burger style. Fries were a little soggy for my taste but still good. The menu is small with only about 3 other sandwiches, I think this burger is the main reason to come! The store itself is small but has a few craft food items like smaller batch chips, chocolates, assorted ingredients, and of course, a butchery. There's a few tables inside in the back and outside as well. Note that while they do sell beer and wine, they cannot on Sundays. This place is worth a stop!!

The homemade sausage and beef jerky are amazing standouts! Drool-worthy…read more The selection is surprisingly good for such a small store, too. The coffee choices are great. The fresh produce is a feast for the eyes. I feel stress melt away when I step inside this market--a reprieve from the MoCo culture. Kind of a throwback to when I was young and lived where there were many more stores like this. We'd love to support this business more than we do, but we don't live nearby. We love stopping here on road trips, though. The owner is so kind. He is also very passionate about the quality of his products.

Boarman Meat Market is the only place I purchase whole chicken to make chicken soup from scratch. I…read morehave found that there is no after taste of preservatives or chemicals in my chicken soup. None! Just fresh cooked chicken, broth, veggies, and herbs. I realized this after using chicken from other stores, (Boreman's ran out of whole chicken one day) even tried Whole Foods "fresh organic chicken"! Note - I believe that since the meats has no preservatives or chemicals on their meats you need to use within a few days or freeze. Ask yourself when purchasing meats from other stores, - How long ago was the meat butchered..........

I called to see if they had beef bacon and they said they'd order the cut I needed to make the beef…read morebacon. I also got a lot of education about why most don't carry it since it usually gets ground up to put in other things. Got a great cut and they trimmed the fat for us so we could get right into getting it ready. It smoked up great and cooked up great as well. No complaints at all! The fat ratio to meat ratio was great and they're very friendly at Fenwick's. We will definitely be back so if you're looking for a specific cut, call. I called on a Monday or Tuesday and picked up on a Friday I believe. So you may not have to wait long as they had it Thursday for me but I couldn't get out there in time. You do need to go pretty deep into cross street market to get to them but you can also explore other merchants while there.

I got a subpar chuck roast that they charged me $22/lb for. Insane amounts of fat (ratio was way…read moreoff, to the point I probably paid for a lb of fat), and the meat itself was meh. Whole Foods charged $12/lb and it was noticeably better. Same story with the short rib I got last month...almost half the price at Whole Foods and experienced better or the same quality. The funniest is the stock bones...$15 for a small pack. You'd need two to make any volume of stock, (so $30), and the same amount of bones would be $10 at the farmers market. I love supporting local places, especially high-quality butchers/groceries. I really do. But there comes a point when you have to ask if you're getting ripped off. With meats DOUBLE the price of another grocer that itself has a reputation for being expensive, it starts feeling like you're being taken advantage of. For what it's worth, the little old lady in front of me almost had a panic attack when they rang her up. I would've bought her groceries for her, but I suddenly realized that me buying a couple pounds of chuck roast and 10 marrow BONES to make stock with would already have me above $100. I saw another person put back cookies because after tax they were $7 each. Sorry, guys, but I'm out.

Made Porchetta sandwiches for lunch and can't even explain how delicious the meat was. It was slices then and had great flavor. Oliver's has quite a selection of deli meats and cheese as well as high quality steaks, chops and sausages. The seafood looked very fresh as well. This is a local butcher shop that should be supported. I had a great experience and will be back.

They had some really good looking Mahi Mahi filets that I am kicking myself for not getting, but in talking with the two guys behind the counter, it was just brought in that morning. Instead we got local chicken breast, which at about $7 per lb. Is pretty good for local chicken. Our CSA previously charged $10.99 a lb. And some pork chops to throw on the grill - they were nice thick cuts too! Their different beef cuts looked good and the one guy was talking about bringing in some A5 in the future (admittedly this was a conversation I was eaves dropping on so I don't have details -- but... something to look forward to???) They also have different prepared foods - apparently their shepherd pies were very popular this past week and sold out and they have shaved ribeye that we would have liked for cheesesteaks (alas! Also sold out) It was a Sunday so I am sure they were winding down inventory for the week, but if they are selling out - it must be good, right!?! Bottom line: knowledgeable and helpful staff & good, quality selection - wish they were closer to us, but we will be back anyway!

So when I saw that they had…read moreHarvey's in Union Market, I figured I had to check out to continue my search for best Philly Cheesesteak outside of Philly (Angelo's, Uncle Gus, and John's being my top 3 in Philly). Let me start with the cheesesteak. I am a firm believer that an amazing cheesesteak has to nail the 3 components: 1) quality meat, 2) gooiness of the cheese, 3) freshness of the roll. Harvey's nailed the meat. The gooiness of the cheese was inconsistent but I do like their take on their own wiz. The roll was eh. Also, the onions were just thrown into the meat instead of being car elided on the flat grill. I think what really took my by surprised was the staff. The cook seemed to be on break eating while I waited for my order. Now it was a little dead in Union Market. I showed up around 5ish on a Friday night. But I was a little caught off guard when watching the staff during the making of my sandwich. Just expected a higher standard. If I lived in the area, I love the availability of getting fresh quality cuts of meat as they have available for your viewing pleasure. Their menu of sandwiches available here still look great. But now that I've tried their cheesesteak, I don't feel the need to stop for it again.
