Always great selections of meat and great sales. The bacon is delicious and the apple sausage has just the right flavor. They will cut various meats to your liking which I prefer during the holidays. Their deli meats are delicious too especially the bacon crusted turkey. Always nice staff to greet you when you walk in. read more

Part of me doesn't want to share how I feel about this establishment, it may cause more people to want to visit this gem of a store. But if you want good pricing and quality meat? This is the place to go. I now make 2 stops on grocery days...here and the grocery store read more

My first time here. Great quality deli and meats much better than supermarket. Alot of other items too in frozen case a new one stop for me. I am very impressed. read more

Really nice store for high-quality deli meats. They have a good variety of deli meats that I like to put on my sandwiches almost every day. They also have some good ice cream from Hershey's (the ice cream company) sold in freezers. They slice and cut slices of deli correctly and the way I want the slices to be. It's a busy store for some things. read more

Prior to this weekend, Bogner was a place I should have visited a long time ago. Like over 15 years ago. That's how long I've heard people praise Bogner as a great place to buy meat. I don't live especially close to Bogner, but a trip home along 84 West (it's about 1.5 miles off Exit 67) provided a good reason to visit. Bogner's Vernon facility is no frills, all functional. The outside and inside are both fine, but I'm sure nobody has called the atmosphere a selling point. I'm sure that's to keep the overhead low so they can pass on the savings to customers. They have a long butcher case, which seemed to focus on beef. Steaks. Ground beef. Etc. They had an adjacent deli case, but I didn't go that far down. Bogners has separate refrigerators for things like chicken and cheese. I didn't know exactly what to expect in terms of available products. I was happy to see they had most of what you would need to make standard burgers or dogs. Buns. Condiments. Cheese. Seasoning. Etc. You should not expect to find everything a large grocery store would have. Service was friendly throughout my visit. I'm not the best judge of good deals, but I had the impression that Bogner had a good mix of value and quality. I know at least two Hartford area restaurants that use Bogner meat for burgers and dogs. I bought the Skinless Beef Hot Dogs and buns, and they were good. I also grilled Bogner filet mignon, and they were better than I've had from restaurants in the last year. I haven't turned the Ground Chuck into burgers yet, but it looked great. I also got a good deal on chicken wings I haven't air-fried yet. All the praise for Bogner seems warranted. I have closer options for good meats, but I would regularly visit Bogner if I lived nearby. 5 Stars read more

For me Bogner's is all about "The Dog that Snaps" I've been eating these Beef and Pork Frankfurters for over a decade and I promise these guys are the real deal and they've been doing it right since 1942. I've never been in their shop so I can't speak to the staff, but I do know their products, they've been delivering the same quality long before I first tasted these dogs, believe me the snap of the natural casing may draw you in but the deliciousness will keep you coming back. Technically, hot dog is the name of the sandwich and frankfurter is the meat in the sandwich. So now that we got that straight we can move on, I've always said that I prefer all-beef franks, well I do love them but these beef / pork frankfurters checks all the boxes and compete high on my list of favorites. Whether it's a backyard cookout or few of the dogs skewered over a campfire these won't leave you disappointed - I'm still working on how to get these consistently to Florida, I'm sure I'll figure it out at some point, like anything this good it's worth the effort... read more

Bogner Quality Meats - Meat - Meat Shops Near Me - Vernon Rockville, Connecticut

Bogners has been a name in this area for many many years, their Manchester store is the original followed by their Vernon location. The two stores are small in area as they both are dedicated butcher shops/meat markets; they do provide eggs, cheese and others items, however; their main staple is meat. Recently, I purchased some smoked pork chops in Germany known as "Kassler Rippchen." I must say, we were absolutely delighted, they were tender, juicy and full of lightly smoked flavorful porky goodness. This will definitely be one of our future go-to dinner item main stays, they are simply delicious. We also picked up a package of their natural casing all beef hot dogs which are very good as well but the real standout was those chops. If you've never tried smoked porkchops, you owe it to yourself to give them a whirl, I believe you will he pleasantly surprised at just how good they are. Remember they have been smoked and could be sliced and eaten at room temp if you desire. The best way to serve them is bring them to temp slowly; then quickly sear both sides in very hot pan; serve with German warm potato salad, sauerkrant and bingo a match made in heaven. Seriously folks, don't miss these chops..!!! read more

Our service was very fast. It's a very pleasant experience. They have everything in the store. Small quantity but a lot of food stuff. I lived in Manchester and we visited every few weeks. Now I live in Bridgeport. I plan to still go to Bogners. If you have never been here, you must visit. read more

Well stocked with meats and awesome looking frozen veggies. Staff was very approachable and you can order online or go in to see what looks good to you that day. Reasonable prices and high quality products. Our first time going was during the coronavirus pandemic, and we found when the grocery stores had bare shelves Bogner had everything we needed. The frozen veggies were the biggest surprise for me, you can see them in the clear bag and they look amazing! Usually frozen veg is a mystery, wondering if the picture on the bag will match what's inside (and usually it doesn't), love that you see what you are buying. We will be using them regularly now. read more

We recently discovered this place and went for the first time today and man oh man we were not disappointed and we will definitely be back! Prices are very fair and staff is friendly. Meat looks fresh and there was such a variety. We got the Bogner kelbasia and the cranberry/apple/maple sausages - we smoked both for dinner tonight and both were outstanding .... especially those homemade sausages. We also ordered sirloin filets and black pepper bacon as well as some frozen gnocchis. There was so much to choose from and we were incredibly pleased. Looking forward to this being our go to meat spot from here on out. They offer really awesome looking bulk meat packages which we we definitely be partaking in as well. Thank you! read more

have been a costumer there for years. I don't know we're the people are saying that the employees are rude, have never had, nor seen an employee being rude with anybody. One thing that's changed is the price. Use to be the best around, not so much any more, pretty expensive compared to what it use to be. Deli meats are still the best prices around, with great service. read more

Bogner Meats is my go to store in the summer for grilling! Very fresh products for fair prices. My favorite items: - The steak tips are very tender, especially the marinated options. - Sweetheart steaks - The freshly made sausage, particularly the apple cranberry - Deli meats (great prices!) read more

Buying meat at a supermarket is insane. A good adult has found a local butcher. Bogner is my local butcher. They have the butcher starter of a 10 pound bag of chicken at $20 a bag. And they have much more. It pays to book ahead and get a meat pack. They include a lot of different meats at a great price. Bogner has a wide selection of meats. I try and buy on sale and challenge myself to cook an inexpensive or sale meat. It's also the go to place to find crown roasts and standing rib roasts. The service is fantastic and the prices are great. Be an adult and make this your local butcher. read more

Great butcher shop, great service and fantastic value. The ground beef, steaks and sausage are some of the tastiest in the entire area. Been visiting Saturday mornings for years, never been disappointed with both service and the quality of their meats. If you're planning a family gathering for a cookout, they will fill larger orders quickly. Long time Customer and plan to continue my support. read more

For a tiny butcher shop in the middle of nowhere, they had a good selection of quality meats and deli items, all decently priced. I even managed to score some ground bison and lobster ravioli! But I have to recommend their fresh roaster chickens. Those are some of the juiciest chickens I've ever tasted. The staff and other regular customers were all very nice and helpful. I will definitely be back. read more

Tried out Bogner meats for the first time this week and I was very happy with the price and quality of my N.Y. strip steaks. I'll definitely come back for steaks in the future. read more

Fresh makes a difference. I only buy my meats here avoiding the grocery store. Yes, it's an extra trip but so worth it. Also I'd be remiss not to mention the deli with good prices and products (cooper cheese). Staff behind the meat counter friendly and helpful, not so much with cashiers. read more

Ah, Bogner's. How I love your frenetic little pace. How I love your fresh meats and cheeses, the fresh, frozen french fries that fry up perfectly and the chicken wings that make such a wonderful appetizer. This place is fantastic. Choicest cuts of meats. All ready for you to select, bring home and grill. They also stock Little Mark's sauces. Little Mark's Big BBQ is a popular little joint on Route 83. They have a wonderful selection of deli meats, too. I have to politely disagree with the reviewer who stated the guys behind the counter are, at times, rude. I've never seen it. This is my spot for good meat to throw on the grill during the summer months. A good bacon/cheddar cheese burger sounds good about now, too. mmmmmm...... read more

Kielbasa, hot dogs and fresh cut meat by the butchers on site. It's almost like a little grocery store - they had produce, spices, marinades - a pretty big selection. They also carry kelly dogs! Great stop for local meats BTW the one in Manchester is closed, they moved to this location. I initially added my review there and couldn't find my pics then realized there were 2 spots on yelp read more

I've just returned from a trip to this Bogner's location, and I think it's safe to say it will be my last for awhile. I moved to Vernon a couple of months ago and have stopped by here several times since. The employees are consistently rude. I have found this to be true even when they are not busy, as an older review mentions. The younger employees in particular are clearly not trained in basic customer service manners. I have worked jobs like these and I know that minimum wage service jobs are a lot of work with little pay or respect. I always take care to be pleasant towards workers at places like these and do not expect them to bend over backwards in attempts to ingratiate me. However, I DO expect the most basic level of pleasant service that you will receive almost anywhere else. The girl who checked me out today offered absolutely zero greeting or goodbye, even after I had greeted her. She stated my price in an annoyed tone once she rang up my two items and that was it. The young man behind the deli counter appeared similarly annoyed to have to take the order and slice up my two simple items. I have frequented this deli about once a week since moving as I prefer to support smaller, more local businesses and this deli is very close to my new home. I initially gave them the benefit of the doubt and imagined employees may have been having off days, but after today I'm pretty tired of being treated so rudely. I have given it multiple chances and have consistently left the place feeling as though my business is somehow a nuisance for the employees here. I give the place two stars because the food is fine, but it's certainly not good enough to put up with the poor customer service. I have no intention of going back anytime soon, I'll find another local deli to support with my business. read more

The prices are fair, the meat itself is excellent quality. The staff is great, helpful and nice....but (ah there's always a but) my only little tiny suggestion is to help the people load the meat in the cart. I've been there a couple times with my crazy toddler and it would of been nice for a little help. That's it though! Everything else is great get the hotdogs, once you have had them no other one tastes as good. Same with everything there meat wise! I will never buy big y meat ever again, overpriced and pales in comparison for the quality. Oh and one more thing the parking lot is a bit hilly be careful not to bottom out. read more

Awesome selection with unbeatable prices and a very friendly staff. Hours aren't that accommodating however I still highly recommend!

I love Bogners. I'm a fairly new customer even though I've lived in Vernon for 17 years. I've been told over and over that I need to shop there. In October I was trying to find a couple of nice steaks for my daughter's birthday dinner. We had a coupon for 40% off Kansas City Steak co and had an order in with them but they had not arrived yet. I went to 2 different grocery stores and was not happy with the selection. The ones I found were expensive and cut thin. When I eat steak I want to bite into a chunk of meat. I decided to try Bogners and was very happy I did so. I bought 3 Kansas City steaks, I should have only bought 2 because they were nice size and thick. They were big enough that my daughter and I shared one and we had a hole steak left over. The meat was so tender and juicy. The only time I've had steak that good was when I was on Montana Steak Grill and I payed a lot more there than I did at Bogners. Three days later my Kansas City Steak co steaks came in. They come individually wrapped and are big enough for my daughter and I to share. They are not as thick as the Bogner steaks and are not nearly as juicy and tender as the ones I bought at Bogners. Don't get me wrong they were good but not as good as the ones I got at Bogners. Fast forward to December, I went into Bogners to get some chicken, some of the freshest chicken you can find. The drum sticks are twice the size of the ones you get in the grocery store and the are priced better. What I found that day were 2 pork shoulders wrapped together for about the same price I would find 1 in the grocery store. I abandoned the chicken and grabbed those. One I cooked the next day and the other I wrapped and froze. This pork shoulder was so fresh and so flavorful. I go to the grocery store for my canned and dry goods but I now go to Bogners for my meat. The only negative thing I can say about Bogners is they are no open on Sunday or Monday. I tend to do my shopping on Sundays and have had to plan around that. That's the only negative I can come up with. read more

Selection of meats is fair to average - nothing special. I visited only after listening to my co-worker rave about how wonderful the place is. In comparison to other locally owned butcher shops, Bogner's is lacking in variety and quantity. Pricing is not anything exceptional over the other places. The quality of what they do have, however, seems to match the other butcher shops. As noted by a few other people, the staff is comprised of some of the rudest people I've had the displeasure of having to deal with. I've gone twice. Both times I had a different cashier but both were equally lacking even the slightest level of customer service skills. That alone is enough reason to never return. Obviously the owners do not care who they have working for them. read more
