I love most things about this meat market! I drive 40 minutes in good traffic and drive past about 3 other meat markets, including two within ten minutes of my home. The guys working the counters are TOP NOTCH! I would put them up against ANY OTHER and feel confident that I would not lose! These guys are friendly, knowledgeable, and down right fun to be around! I can't say enjoy about them--they get it! And OF COURSE the meats are best in the city! Always fresh and if it's not right they make it right! They also have a bunch of other goodies (spices, "sides", bakery items--GET THAT CARAMEL CAKE!!!, sauces, stuff for your grills, hell, a few grills )! My one "issue" is with the ladies at check out. My guess is that they don't know any better. But not greeting a customer (a very good one), and not pausing the conversation you're having with your colleague about WHATEVER while a paying customer stands there for more than a minute waiting yo be helped is UNACCEPTABLE: it's entirely too distasteful for a place like this--or for ANY PLACE THAT DEPENDS ON ITS CUSTOMERS FOR BUSINESS! Please fix this. I'll definitely be back and I'll be watching . Otherwise, kudos!!!! read more

This is now the only place I will by meat from if I can help it. The beef is all certified angus and it makes a huge difference. There ribs are awesome and they make their own sausage and hotdogs. I will go out of my way to get meat from these guys if I have no other option. They need to be open on sunday or extend their hours though. read more

I'm updating my review, as the fiance' and I have been back to Patton's many times since that first day back in August 2012. For xmas we got the most delicious beef rib roast that I've ever had. Surely, part of this is due to me being a genius in the kitchen, but I will gladly share the glory with that beautiful piece of meat we bought (and devoured). We also love the sausage, and this week we had some great bone-in pork chops. Oh, and how did I forget the ground lamb I used to make my famous lamb burgers! It's shocking that I haven't tried the chicken yet, but my biggest problem in making it to Patton's is remembering to make a second stop after leaving Publix..or the laziness factor. Aside from the excellent quality, I've been beyond impressed by the level of service I get there. Nobody rushes me when I want to look around a bit and they answer any questions I may have - including the best way to cook the rib roast (my first!) - without making me feel stupid. I really don't think the prices are high at all, especially with the high quality we've experienced. read more

Certifed Angus Beef, Prime grade beef, and the best ground sirloin in the local area. Make sure you get on the email list for extra deals. Highly recommended. read more

No one can beat Patton's for customer service! They have the nicest people working there and it is a pleasure to shop there. They are helpful in the best way to cook meats and they do not make you feel ridiculous for asking. They have a great selection of tremendous quality meats! I love to shop here for the selection and to support a local business. I swapped out a propane tank and they were so helpful and carried it to my car and took the old one. Most places won't do that for you! Patton's also carries delicious cakes made in Georgia. They are fresh and there are many favors to choose. There is also a great selection of sauces and rubs. Patton's is one stop shopping for grilling or for dinner! I'm glad they are close but I'd drive out of my way to shop there read more

A friend recommended I come here, and I'm so glad she did! It's a small place, but they have a really good variety of meats. And if they don't have it, ask them, and they can probably get it. Their prices are very reasonable, and everything is very fresh. Their sushi grade tuna was cheaper than Super H. My husband loves their rib eye...said it's the best he's had. And they are super nice people. I love it! read more

This place was awesome. Great cuts of meat, great selection of beef, pork and everything else. Also fresh vegetables and salad makings. Employees were very friendly and helpful. I just wish they were closer to me. I drove here from Smyrna but it was worth it. read more

Try the filet mignon. They are tender and juicy. The cook up in no time. Check out the pick I uploaded: two filets, roasted baby potatoes, carrots, and onion. read more

I recently stopped by Patton's for some smoked pork chops, sausages, and bratwursts for a BBQ at work. Great prices & meat quality. Everyone at Patton's was so nice and helpful. Forget buying meat at the groceries store! Patton's is pretty small but it looks like they have just about everything you need for an awesome meal: awesome choices of meat and a decent section of vegetables. There were a lot of different spices on display as well. read more

If you want the best Meat and Millionaires' Mac and Cheese, GO to Pattons! I made the pre seasoned whole chicken with a side of the millionaires mac and cheese. It was so cheesy and smooth, the best dinner my family had. When you go to Pattons', pick up the Millionairs' Mac and Cheese. read more

All the staff are super nice, helpful, & knowledgable as they should be since they've been around for so long. They knew my name by the second visit and they have great prices on the quality that they offer. My favorite: Italian sausage for my homemade Zuppa Toscana soup! read more

My boyfriend wanted us to have one last great meal to end 2014 with a bang. We are new to Georgia so he decided to Google a couple of meat markets and Pattons came up. He drove there and got three Ribeyes at 16.5 ounces each. They were $15.99 a pound. He got home we seasoned it and put those babies to cook!! We had it with scalloped potatoes and asparagus! ! Let me tell you, it's the softest meat we have ever had and trust me we've had some good pieces of meat!! We cooked the meat it didn't shrink and kept it's consistency. The marbling was just the right amount. We are now new fans and will definitely be back!! We can't stop talking about the quality of the meat. As a side note, it's USDA Prime. P.S can't wait to go back and try their Bacon. read more

Patton's Meat Market - Three Ribeyes. 16.5 ounces each - Meat Shops Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

A MEAT LOVERS PARADISE! Old man Jenkins and I decide to visit the local market in search of the ultimate hotdog that would pair well with a homemade chili sauce. After perusing the Yelp photos, my husband decided that he would like to order some of that bacon as well. When we finally arrived at this small shop, I decided that I would just have a look around. I can honestly say that their meat looked clean and fresh. There was no particular odor in the air and that was perfect. We decided to try the Italian and lamb sausages, the bacon and hotdogs. I am not really into hotdogs and I did not try them . However, after my husband tried them, he could only say that they were really big and dense and that they did not plump or shrink. I really couldn't tell if he liked it or not because he had this look of defeat on his face. I think that he was really embarrassed that a hotdog had brought him to his knees. He finally admitted that he really liked them and would definitely purchase them again. These dogs are very dense and therefore substantial. Try them at your own risk. That bacon is the real deal hearty, not as salty as regular bacon, lower in fat and not given to shrinkage. Yes it tastes good but I think it is better as a side instead of an ingredient. I found myself interested in their homemade sausages because I am always looking for something different. The lamb sausage intrigued me but I still have not tried it yet. When I do, I will update this review. I will say that if you are making your own sausages, you should have an ingredient list available. I get really frustrated with businesses who do not know the ingredient quantities of their foods. The employees here were not able to tell me how much sodium is in the sausage but I purchased it knowing that I can easily use it in soup if it is too salty. Yes, they have various groceries and products at an elevated price but I consider these emergency items for those people who need it NOW and appreciate the convenience of getting everything they need in one place. It's simple if you don't want to pay more, don't! 7/26/16 So we finally tried the sausages, (lamb and Italian), and they were a fail for us. My husband has an issue with hypertension so he should not be eating sausages at all. However, I don't have that issue and I like a nice light sausage for flavoring soups or egg dishes. The lamb sausage had a very odd texture, (like wet shredded paper) and way too much sodium. Once I realized that I could not eat it as a side, I removed he casing and added it to my broccoli scramble. I added fresh tomatoes on the side to further diminish the sodium but that odd texture kept rearing its ugly head. I know there's a problem when I can feel the bloat happening after just a few bites. Unfortunately, due to taste, sodium and texture, I would not recommend the lamb sausages. My husband and I then tried the Italian sausage but it too was very salty and just not the flavor I expected. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this sausage either. It is probably best to stick with the unprocessed proteins. ***I actually had my husband smoke some of the bacon on the grill so that I could add that smokey taste to my pasta and it was a winner with the entire family! read more

Excellent store. Excellent service. Great quality meats. I purchased a brisket and Boston butt. Loved it!

You don't find many butchers around anymore, but Patton's is great. You can call ahead to see if they have a cut of meat you want and they will vacuum pack it and reserve it for you to pick up. They have all types of meats, including bacon and sausage. This place is great. read more

This place is amazing! Not cheap, but soooo worth it. Never had anything from here that wasn't delicious. Fresh, hand cut and ground steaks, pork, chicken, sausage. Dry aging on the premises. Support local business! read more

Long delayed review. This has been our go-to 'best meat' place for a few years. It's a bit out of our way, but for special occasions, this is our staple for meats. I could write pages about the different bbq's or family-in-town type dinners we've had that Patton's supplied the main course, but I won't ramble too much. Beef is incredible here (the tomahawk ribeyes with a 2 foot bone are impressive). Black Angus from choice to prime and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. It's not inexpensive, but again - you get what you pay for. If you're looking for pork butt, ribs, brisket, short ribs, etc this is the place to go. The seafood looks great, but we haven't tried it yet. They also have some of the best house made burgers, bacon, sausages and hot dogs (half pound beef dogs, house-made I believe) you're going to find. Service is nice and they have always been willing to recommend how to cook everything in the store or trim to request. If you're looking for top-quality products, this is the place for you. Make sure you sign up for their email list though as they often have really good prices on everything from tenderloin to baby back ribs. Oh yeah... they're the only butcher in our area that I've been able to regularly find a picanha (which I'm grilling as I write this)! read more

I'm lucky to live nearby this gem. I always pick up meats for smoking, or bacon for breakfast.

This place is the REAL DEAL, and these guys are the best!!!! Everything is top quality and the selection is always excellent. Most importantly if you are grilling, or however you're cooking they'll give you the proper advice on how to cook it. They carry tons of different rubs, pickles etc and some veggies so you can leave there with a meal. My weakness is the smoked pork chops. If you go there on the weekend it's almost primal, guys all milling about waiting for their meat, you can smell the testosterone. Go and buy with confidence. read more

Love, Love, Love. A carnivore paradise. Exceptional service from a very friendly and knowledgeable team. Selection and quality are outstanding and prices are fantastic. If you can buy a full packer-wrapped cut, they will trim and cut into individual steaks or grind part of it for burgers later. read more

I know the manager here and the Pattons so I try to goto places that are good at what they do and I know someone. They have a good selection of proteins of good quality, nice marbling, and good color. I highly recommend Patton's Meat Market for a item you want of higher quality or hard to find item. read more

This small corner store is a treasure. When I need same-day ground beef for the best tasting burgers, this is where I go. I also stop in regularly for local Banner butter & hot horseradish mustard. Great selection of meats; some in-season produce, much of it local; and a good variety of condiments & sauces. Employees are friendly and efficient. Love going here. I tell family and friends about it, too. read more

I am fortunate to have this butcher shop in my neighborhood. Quality is better than Whole Foods! Boston Butt for my Green Egg, thick cuts of bacon, all beef hotdogs, NY Strips from the Midwest, New Zealand Rack of Lamb, salmon, crab cakes would recommend them all. They even deboned a fresh Turkey for me, and are glad to cut up the whole chicken. They also carry vegetables, Kamado Joe smokers and accessories. If you haven't been you are missing out. read more

Great advice I can trust and the steak quality is one of the best I've seen. Got a whole top sirloin and they cut and trimmed it into 12 steaks for me. Their choice cuts are same as prime elsewhere. On their advice, I ended up getting the choice cut and I was very happy with them. The 9 guests I grilled for also said it was my best steak. I will be a regular here. Btw, also got salmon filet. The prices for accessories seemed a bit steep ($10 for cedar planks that r $6 at Publix? read more

This is a carnivore paradise! From the moment you open the door, you know you are somewhere special. The quaint store offers a wide variety of fresh meat and other things. The staff is plentiful, knowledgeable and incredibly courteous. My husband I and I have started a habit of going every Saturday morning when they open. You will never buy meat at the grocer again. Make sure you join their mailing list for weekly specials. read more

I am impressed! Their service is incredible, and so are their prices and quality of meat! I bet their veggies, fruit, marinades, sauces and whatever else they sell here is the same, but we got one of their family deals (wow), and haven't tried anything else (yet). Definitely making this our place to buy meat, even though we have several other butcher shops much closer to our house. May I also add that this place doesn't smell like weeks dead fish or blood. Bonus! read more

We visited Patton's Meat Market on Saturday, August 19, 2017. We've wanted to go there for a long time as we've seen rave reviews in Gwinnett Magazine. Our purchase consisted of baby back ribs, one pound of hot dogs, and one pound of Italian sausage. We cooked the ribs on Saturday evening. From the first bite we could tell how fresh the meat was. It is a great change from where we have purchased previously. Tonight, August 20th, I cooked the Italian sausage. Since the sausages were so large I thought cooking four of them would be too much and we would have much leftovers. However from our first bite we knew we had a treasure. My first comment was that the Italian sausage was awsome and the anise in the sausage gave it a great taste. We didn't have anything left as everyone in our family ate it all. Tomorrow I will be cooking the hotdogs and I'm sure I will have the same great experience. Thanks to Patton's for having great meat and giving us a great shopping and dining experience. read more

Today I went to Patton's Meat Market. I'm so happy I did. The meat(s) I purchased are beautiful and fresh!The store is one of the cleanest meat markets I've visited. The customer service was grade A!! Steve was awesome! He's extremely knowledgeable about their products and meats. The staff overall were friendly and courteous also. I definitely will be returning on a regular basis. I've found my new meat market read more

The bacon and steaks were amazing! Defntly going to be getting my meat here more often. It's a bit proverb but well worth it!

Look, maybe their meat is good. But customer service??? What a crock! I shopped there for a long time. But ......Don't EVER go there anywhere close to closing time. The meat is put up and they (the mostly high school kids who work there) won't let you choose what you want at that point. I'm talking about 45 min. before closing! The kids that work in there want to go home and "screw the customer!" Hello? Is there a manager or owner paying attention? I was trying to buy hamburger, steaks, some bacon and a roast. I was told that they'd pick something out for me but the WOULD NOT bring out the trays of meat and let me choose! NO THANKS! Also, they used to accept personal checks and never wanted to see a driver's license???. Now, due to "getting burned" (DUH!) they won't accept personal checks. I went to their www site and lodged a concern / complaiint after the near closing time experience I had. I NEVER got even so much as a peep from them about that. TERRIBLE customer serivce. I used to spend about $900 / year there. NO MORE! My suggestion, keep on driving by this place. They could care less about their customers. And if that is the case, the don't deserve our business. read more

First time here getting a fresh cut of meat. We found just that today at Pattons John was very knowledgable and was extremely personable with us. We felt welcome and definitely coming back next week for a brisket read more
