The service is great. Questions and requests are answered quickly. If they don't know, they find the answer. The food is great quality. The cuts of meat are done to your preference but they have so many options I've airways been able to get what I'm looking for. When you walk in, the smell of an old time butcher shop of smoked meats welcomes you in. My experience has always been positive. I've always found what I'm looking for and more. read more

DELICIOUS. We started our New Year's Eve celebration with an appetizer (Jalapeño Poppers with bacon and cream cheese) from Robert's. The first thing I noticed was the thick pieces of bacon wrapped around the jalapeño. (We baked them for 10-15 minutes to really cook the bacon. Then broiled them for 5 minutes.) Each bite was spicy but not overpowering. The bacon added smoke to the flavor and the cream cheese calmed down the spice and brought in a creamy flavor. We should have bought more. read more

Roberts' Specialty Meats - Bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers stuffed with cream cheese. - Meat Shops Near Me - Waukesha, Wisconsin

Well, everybody that works there is always so nice. They're always willing to help you and the product is great. I love shopping there.

We are always top notch pleased with the meat quality. We stopped buying meat from regular grocery stores now due to how poor grocery store mear tastes. Roberts takes me back to a time when meat tastes wonderful and dishes I make taste beautiful. thank you! read more

Very clean small store that has it all! Everything from brats, to burgers to ribs and even something for the pups! Very friendly staff who are knowledgeable for what you need. Love that this little meat market is right on Sunset and so convenient. read more

Expensive but I love their steaks and chicken. The beef jerky is also extremely good. If you can find coupons that helps a little with saving money read more

Bought some prime rib for new year. Great taste and service. Will be back for sure. Basic butcher shop that is worthwhile.

Friendly people + quality meats. They always accommodate my requests, like cutting up bones for my Lab

First time here. It won't be our last Meat selection is phenomenal Very friendly and knowledgeable staff read more

tl;dr Pricey, but you get more than what you pay for in service and quality. If you are find yourself going out for a good porterhouse, you'll save some bucks and have a higher quality, perfectly marbled, and thicker cut here at Roberts'. I was first introduced to Roberts' through their beef jerky, and I've been hooked on them ever since. Jerky, beef sticks, chops, porterhouse, bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers, pickled herring, every blend of brat you could imagine (beer, cranberry and cheddar, potato, chicken and spinach, etc.), the infamous Al Capone roast (boneless pork loin and beef tenderloin rolled with fresh italian sausage, pepperoni, genoa salami, hard salami, mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese and italian seasonings), and my absolute favorite, the Kinnickinnic whiskey beef skewers. This is just a small portion of all the what seems like endless options. Looking to get a loin cut into cubes for kebabs, make a special order for your next bbq, or anything else? These are your guys. Besides meat, they also carry fresh cheese curds, cheese spreads, fresh baked breads, spices, sauces, and much more, even bones and pig ears for your dog. The only negative I have to give Roberts' is their hours. I rarely have a week day where I can make it there before they close at 6pm. Thankfully they have weekend hours. If they were open for just one hour longer, I wouldn't have a single complaint. read more

Absolutely horrible I went there twice when you first walk in they have a wall freezer that is just packed and loaded with freezer burnt frozen meats crystals and brown spots inside of the packaging on everything I tried to go to the fresh meats but when I got home I bought the chicken on a stick it was slimy I also bought a summer sausage which tasted extremely old everything I bought from there which I spent a lot of money had to be cooked immediately because the next day it was bad this is going to be the worst experience in butcher shop I've ever been to in my whole entire life it should be closed read more

For meat lover. We come here 4-6 times a year. I don't know why we don't come here more. A real butcher shop. My Hungarian grandfather would live this place. Quality cuts of meat. We usually get sausages. I love that they are packed in packages of three so that you can get a variety of sausages. Polish, to 4-5 varieties of brats (Jamaican), Italians (Al Capone) and Hungarian all with variety and some hot ones. And the sausages are big. Bigger than store bought brats for example. We usually come here when we have a party and cookout. For tailgating come here for the shish kabobs meats (chicken or beef) that is marinated. We then cook it in foil without the sticks. We will also give gift cards from here. +++++ quality meats +++++ service = fast a friendly +++++ value = quality meats, good portion/size and not much mire for fresh made here You owe it to yourself to check it out. read more

I have been wanting to get over here for a long time but with the outrageous number bookmarks/time/territory it's a slow process knocking them off the list. Since I was having lunch down the street today would be the day. When I walked in I smelled smoke, the international sigh that they make their own products. The place is small but the the cases were filled with so many good looking items so I had choose wisely for my first visit. The guys working the store were super friendly and patient with me and my questions. I asked if they make all the sausage etc and they do I'm told. They are doing some interesting things with fresh meat here and the most creative/outrages piece of meat that I have ever scene, the Al Capone roast, look at my picture and read the label of what's in it. I grabbed the hot meat stick and a jalapeño/cheddar along with KINNICKINNIC Whiskey Coulotte Skewers. The jalapeño cheddar snack stick was the better of the sticks but the hot was hotter. While checking out I told the guy that I have been trying to get over here for a while, he says this is your first time, walks to the cooler and gives me a package of the ribs on a stick at no charge and says you have to try this and you will be back for them. He also informed me that if I signed up for the birthday promotion I would get one free steak on my birthday, hell why not because it's a nice touch. The Al Capone roast was very interesting and tasty, all the layers of flavors and textures from all the meats mixed well with the the melty cheese giving it a creaminess. Overall I liked meeting the guys and the originality of their products because I get to try some new food items, I'm definitely going to stop by when I get the carnitas down the street. read more

See all

My experience here doesn't read like all of the glowing reviews, and that's too bad as many seem to love this place. We stopped just before noon on a Sunday. When we walked in, the kid behind the counter had his back to us playing on his phone. There were no other customers inside, but he completely ignored us. Okay. I was surprised at how small the butcher counter was, and sad to see that it was half empty. There really was no selection to speak of. There is a refrigerator case with prepacked items but that defeats the whole point of a butcher shop, no? Some of the stuff looked old - there was a roast with gray colored fat on it. Just gross. We left without buying anything and went to Ray's in Greenfield instead. Overall - poor service, poor selection, not especially clean. There's absolutely nothing here to bring me back. Maybe it's different on a weekday? read more

First off, the 1 Star review on this place is ridic. I go here on the regular and this is a working man's butcher shop. The owner has grills in front taking care of catering requests. What happens when you grill for a large amount of people? Things get messy. Every time I've gone in here I've been greeted, if not I'm sure the employees are butchering meat or doing something work related. I've had them provide a brisket for me - special order. Everything was cut nicely and they even trimmed off more fat on it when I asked. Their baby back ribs were amazing, using the 3-2-1 method on a big green egg with dizzy dust seasoning was a win at my house. I've gotten their meat sticks and beef jerky, both very good too. Oh, the dog also loves the pig ears here, she highly recommends them!! read more

I ordered 5 oz portions of beef tenderloin for a catering event at Robert's Specialty Meats and they were perfect!!! We prepared beef wellington with them and everyone raved about the delicious beef. THANK YOU, Robert's for taking care of Chef Pam's Kitchen with our meat order!! read more

Last weekend Paul & his crew catered my wedding reception. I cannot say enough good things about our experience!! The food was delicious, on time, beautifully presented, and there was plenty of it! This team doesn't mess around. They get the job done! 10/10 in my book! My guests are still talking about the food! Thanks for everything! read more

Paul and his staff provide some of the best cuts of meat in the area. Get the coupons in your email and get free ribs on a stick and money off your purchase. The meat sticks are fresh and varied on flavor and never disappoint, they carry a variety of vacuum sealed meat in the freezer to meet the most picky tastes. Need cheese to go with your burgers? They will freshly slice it for you. Looking to put cheese in your casserole? Or in your baked chicken breast with asparagus? They have the high heat cheese that will keep you coming back. They even have catering available to keep your clan and friend's tummies full and happy. read more

Finally went here today after after hearing this is the place to go since moving here. Here's out it plays out... Greeted by garbage in front of the store. Disgusting filthy windows and sidewalk. Okay well we go to dives so let's check it out. No one said hello or can I help you and there was no one in there. No good selection to speak of. What they do have is so expensive? Example: 1 NY strip $15, 2 chicken breasts $12 Inside is so filthy as well. Walked out with nothing Do not understand what the hype is!? read more

I drove over from Madison so I could try ribs on a stick and the regionally famous Al Capone Roast and I was not disappointed! My son loved the ribs on a stick and my wife and I devoured the Al Capone Roast. It was so good. If you are looking for something delicious but want to try something new do yourself a favor and go get you some read more

I have no complaints about the meat my review will focus on the customer service. I was patiently waiting my turn to be waited on when an old man walked in with his son. The butcher walks out and just as I'm about to speak to him the old man rudely makes his pitch for a brisket. The butcher was about to speak when I reminded the old man I was here first and he should wait his turn. Now this is where it gets ugly. The butcher gives me an ugly look and continues to wait on the rude old man. Another employee who was at the register comes over to help me after he sees what has happened. The butchers conduct as far as the rude behavior and customer service is the reason for the one star. When you're not the only show in town you better do your best to keep people coming back. I will probably not return. read more

I ordered a fresh turkey for a family dinner tomorrow, luckily we open the bird to season overnight. We found our fresh turkey was frozen. Thank god we opened the night before. At 2.85 a pound I was disappointed, my hope is it will taste great. I called and was told it wasn't supposed to be frozen , but they have some cold spots, no other offer to help me. read more

Meat is outstanding. Roberts specialty meats is a local treasure. The best. Capone roll is outstanding, ribs on stick are so delicious. We appreciate the meticulous care they take with prepping a quality product. read more

I love you Roberts. Your Al Capone roast is THE BEST. Your Kinnickinnic River marinated tenderloins are out of this world. Your beef jerky is To. Die. For. And you have spicy buffalo wing cheese curds. Cha-Ching! P.S.- my dog lives it when I go there too! The marrow bones are his fav!!! read more

Was in the area and needed to get a gift for a coworker. I was like a kid in a candy store only this place is all about meat. Tried all the beef jerky and each one was amazing. Ended up purchasing several pounds, some for the gift and some for me. The beef sticks are flavorful and packed with quality meats and in some cases cheese. The gift was very well received and anyone on the receiving end of this meat will be very satisfied. Can't wait to go back and load up again as well as try some hot Hungarian sausage and other meats. read more

my favorite place to go for meats. Doesn't cost an arm and a leg, quality cuts of beef, very knowledgable staff, great selection. This place is a must go. read more

Robert's has become our favorite place to buy meats! The steaks have been great - significantly better than any of the local grocers. We have also been extremely happy with the different flavors of homemade brats and beef sticks. We also can not resist coming home with a tasty appetizer - try the stuffed mushrooms or beef on a stick! Tip: Make sure to go to the website for monthly coupons!! read more

The service here is fantastic! Now to the good stuff, the meats. The beef sticks are made with natural casings and are incredible. The highlight of the entire trip was the original, beef jerky! If you love jerky and you love bacon, this will be your dream come true. It is on equivocally, the best jerky ever!!! read more

We just moved into the area and stumbled upon this place the other day. We got a few flavors of beef sticks and they are honestly amazing. Prices seemed quite reasonable all around. Great customer service and friendly employees. We will be back soon! read more

We took Robert's ribs on a stick to a Bader tailgate this past weekend, and everyone agreed that they were the best thing we have tasted off the grill!! We'll be back for more! read more

LOVE this place. They have the best cuts. I have never had anything that I did now like.

Great food and excellent service. I just wish they would have the lime chicken available more. Super good!

This is the best place in Waukesha to buy meat. The food is amazing, the staff is friendly and helpful and they always have a great selection. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

I shot my first deer this season and took it to Robert's meats just before Thanksgiving. I finally got it today on 3/16. It took nearly 4 months of multiple calls and I even asked for my deer back, which got me a promise that it would be done in another 2 weeks. Well 60 days after that I got my call on 3/16. I had a great hunting experience and know I will never take deer or buy anything there. It was very disappointing. read more

I regret having to leave this review because like everyone said, the service is excellent and the meat is usually great! I've had meat here numerous times but i just came to realize that there is something terribly wrong with the chicken. This is the 2nd time my husband and I have bought chicken there where we both fell extremely ill shortly after eating it. Not sure if anyone else has had an issue with the chicken but maybe we got unlucky the 2x we did buy it from Robert's. However, after dealing with the nasty stomach pains and constant bathroom visits, I think I'll stay away. Sorry for the sad review.... read more

It is very rare these days to find an independent butcher that you can go to for fresh cut meat and deli. This place is where I always go to get my meat. Paul (one of the owners) knows just about everything there is to know about meat. The steaks are always beautiful and nicely marbled. When you first walk in you will notice that this place has no cute frills or decor, just good meat, and for me that is all I need. The second thing that you will notice is the smell of fresh smoked jerkey. If you haven't tried it just ask for a sample, it is delicious. If you ever have any questions on how to best cook your meat they will tell you how. I love this place. read more

First I must say I am a very picky meat eater......I love this place! The meat is always fresh and tastes great! Way worth an extra trip when grocery shopping! The customer service is also top notch! They are very helpful and friendly! read more

I have been to Robert's about three times now and have yet to be disappointing. Their beef jerky, ribs on a stick and stuffed chicken breast are phenomenal. Never had any issues with their customer service and will continue to visit Robert's. read more

I love this place! The staff are VERY friendly and the meats tastes very fresh. After shopping at the pick n save across the store I always come here afterwords for my meat! They have coupons on their website to help with the prices too :) read more

Stay away. What I sent them: Paul, I order a LARGE turkey from you early to cook 2 weeks or so before Thanksgiving every year. We have only had one problem before this year, which you worked out for me previously. Not this year. I was told today 11/12/15 that my order was not there. I am cooking this turkey on the 14th and was to brine this turkey tonight. I was told that my order was ready for pickup last Thursday the 5th. This is not the day I ordered. I was very specific even explaining when I would be cooking it, brining it on the pickup date and why I needed it Thursday the 12th. I had my phone in my hand looking at the calender on the phone and adding the pickup date as I ordered it. I was told that they could not find my ticket order. I was told that they just put it back in the freezer yesterday (so apparently you had it sitting and waiting for me unfrozen for 6 days. And obviously you never called to tell me that I had not picked it up (even though it was not the day I ordered it for pickup, it seems like something you would do, and in fact when he was searching for my pickup on the various order pads laying around the place, one of them was sitting in front of the phone...so it looks to me that had this whole situation been legitimate, that would have happened). Although it was not the person I spoke with today, it was a younger guy who took my order at the time...and trust me when I tell you that I was very specific about both the date and when I could pick it up (i.e., do you call me when it is ready? Can I come any time during the day?...etc). To be downright honest with you, I feel like I was LIED to today. None of this seems legitimate at all. No order receipt, no call, the turkey sitting out for 6 days waiting for me...etc. This is completely unacceptable, and I will obviously be ordering my turkeys, buying my briskets, and hanger steaks (amongst other things) elsewhere. I could not be more angry with your business right now, as I hurriedly try to thaw out a store bought turkey as I type this. You should be ashamed of your employees. Your former and very upset customer, read more
