    Meat Like It Used to Be is a great neighbourhood butcher, filled with knowledgable staff and great…read morequality meat. They have award-winning sausages made on site, and also cure their own bacon, and make up their own beef burgers. There's a variety of stuffed or marinated meat, good for the bbq in the summer or for roasting in the winter. They make sausage rolls and pasties, and it's pretty hard to resist when you walk by and smell that baking! They were happy to give me bones for a dog for no charge. Anything you want, they'll get in for you. There's a small selection of produce and chutneys, and some meat bagged up for the freezer. Oh, and there's cheese and ham, too. I may just start sleeping on the floor. And if you go in and say what you're making, they'll give you the right cut of meat and the right size, and then tell you how long to cook it. I think one of these days, they'll just follow me home and cook it up for me. The downside? It's expensive. But you're paying for quality and expertise, which you just don't get at a supermarket. They're open seven days a week, too.

    More like butchers like they used to be - knowledgable, friendly and happy to do any meat…read morepreparation for you. I went in last night and there was one person already being served - the butcher had tenderised a piece of beef to order and was in the process of cutting it into strips for her. But that didn't mean I had to wait, as he called his colleague out from the back who was happy to assist. I was very pleased with both the service and the quality of the steaks I purchased. I'm a semi-regular here, although I tend to shop here more in the summer when buying for barbecues etc as they have a good range. They also make their own sausages - the pinner porker is great, and they even make pies, pasties and scotch eggs.

    Love love love. Not…read morea lot in term of grocery in this area, so then farm shop is a blessing to me. Not a fan of the co-op down the road this is the best place to get produce, eggs, meat and just about most things you can think of to fill your fridge and cupboard. The upstairs even has large freezers with ice cream and baked goods, and more meat. The people are very friendly and everything is quite affordable. I am so happy to be able to support my local farmer. They'll soon be starting a delivery service as well!

    We've just moved to the area and are here for a year without a car, so being able to walk to a shop…read morewith such variety and extremely reasonable prices is wonderful! My husband was able to find whole oats here (called Jumbo Oats) which he couldn't find in any of the major grocery stores. The meat prices are extremely good especially for being so fresh and local, and the frozen meats are a super bargain! We bought some just-picked seasonal strawberries yesterday and they were amazingly delicious. We still need to get some things at a bigger store like some familiar national/international brands or particular varieties of groceries, but Radmore Farm Shop is definitely our new place to walk for fruit, veg, and meat. It's perfect for those "What are we going to have for dinner" afternoons because I can grab meat, onions, mushrooms, and whatever veg suits and cook something up fast. We are definite fans and plan to shop here routinely while we're in town.

    This is a tradional butchers shop run by a family for many years. They get all their meat locally…read moreand they also sell homemade pies, fruit, vegetables, cooking sauces and other bits. This has been here for many years and it's always the place that I go to get all my meat. The people that work here are very friendly, polite and always give advice for helping you to prepare or cook the meat if needed. Their prices in their goods are very reasonable and they always have a special offer on. One of my favourites is their home made burgers, which my children love. If they don't have what you want on display they are more than happy to get it from their stock out the back or make it up for you. It's a very well presented butchers and it's always neat and tidy.

    I have used this butchers to purchase all my meat for many years now and have always been pleased…read morewith how it tastes. This is a butchers run by a family and has been since the beginning. It's not a big shop but has quite a good sized display cabinet that shows all the meat they have to sell. This is all good priced too and they do have offers on from time to time. Their home made pies are also very tasty and have lots of filling in too not like some that you can buy from the supermarkets. This shop also sells fruit and vegetable, fresh made breads and cakes, along with sauces that would accompany meats. The family and other staff that work here are all very friendly when they serve you and can also give good tips about cooking.
