***Update*** I really want to downgrade my original review based on my follow up experience, but…read moreI'll let you know what happened. As mentioned that pepperoni was life changing, so I made the traffic filled journey back in the rain to get a larger portion. They were sold out and the kid working the counter said it would be 3 days before they had stock again. This is nuts, place I frequent, don't sell out of snacks, so what's going on here? I did get more jerky, but it didn't taste the same. My original piece were savory. This jerky was much sweeter and I don't like sweet meat. Clearly consistency is an issue here. Also, the service was bad. On my original trip the guy told me the price, which I gave the cashier. This time, the guy handed me the bag, when I asked for the price, he said it would be weighed up front. Up front, the guy asked me the price and I told him the kids said he'd weight it. The guy walked off, talked to the kid and came back with a price. Really...? Looks like the weekend help is either lazy or incompetent. Had this been my 1st trip, the review would be one star for sure.

Stopped by Blue Max Meats after finding out Owen's Meats in the Tacoma/Ruston area had closed, and…read morewanted to give another local butcher shop a try. The shop is very clean and well organized, and they clearly put a lot of effort into how everything is displayed. Really nice selection, and the meat quality looked quite good and comparable to other higher-quality butcher shops we've been to. Prices seemed pretty much on par with what you'd expect for this type of place. Service was okay. Nothing bad, but pretty standard and not especially warm or overly friendly. Overall, a solid butcher shop with a clean store, good selection, and good-looking meat. Would I go back? Yeah, especially if I was already in the area.

Falling River Meats is one of those places I'm genuinely glad we have in town. I not only come here…read morefor meat but lunch or dinner as well, which says a lot. They offer clean cuts, good variety, and staff who actually know where the meat comes from and how it was raised. It feels intentional, not mass-market, and that's why I trust it when I'm cooking for my family. Their salads and sandwiches are an easy go-to, and on weekends the smash burgers are worth planning around. Simple, well-seasoned, cooked right. No gimmicks. I'll usually grab a burger here and then walk next door for a beer at Volition Brewing, which makes for a pretty great low-effort lunch or dinner. They stock a ton of other things as well, worth stopping in when you're in town to see what they have. This place works because it's consistent. Whether I'm shopping for a special meal, stocking up for the week, or just grabbing something quick to eat, Falling River Meats always delivers.

Don't go here, go to Stewart's meats or somewhere else. We bought a big steak/meat package from…read morethis business back in January. I got loads of ground beef, ground pork, and steaks because I do so much meal prepping. We got it all frozen, probably spent well over $300. Everything in our entire order was rancid. Brown and smells absolutely god awful. I've waited many months to give them the benefit of the doubt and see if any of it was good. It was not. I even went to Stewart's meats out in Roy (where we normally buy big meat packages from) and did a test trial. Let them defrost in the fridge for a day or so. Northwest meats was brown and had a foul odor, Stewart's meats was juicy with blood and no odor at all. Conclusion made. They sold us rotten meat. Not cool for the food industry. Have some standards. That could have made someone really sick had they not known and eaten any of it.

10/10 Do recommend!!!…read more Upon first walking in I first noticed how clean this place was! My husband and I are used to meat markets nearby and we immediately noticed that this place smells so much better. They have a wide range of meats. We purchased two beautiful ribeye steaks, some goat meat and also some lamb meat. Definitely amazing. Quality meat and great prices! They have a little grocery section with various sodas and desserts which are incredible. Try this place out. You will not be disappointed!
