From the moment you walk into Gate City Butcher Shoppe and your olfactory center is embraced by a…read moreflurry of savory aromas, you will know that you are on to something good (cue Herman's Hermits "I'm into Something Good"). I first came here a while back in pursuit of a USDA Prime steak. They routinely carry both Prime and certified Angus ribeyes and strips as well as other cuts of beef, poultry, and salmon. I have only had the steaks, and they are outstanding. The other cuts of meat appear to be of the highest quality. I have also tried their smoked salmon dip, which is excellent, and their chicken salad, which has boldly flavored chicken (grilled?) and is as good as any you will find anywhere. They also have an astounding array of refrigerated or frozen take-and-bake meals. I've not had any of them, but they look fabulous. So if you're looking for something to grill or a prepared meal for you and your family because you're sick of cooking during this time of stay home/isolate/quarantine, I would highly recommend Gate City Butcher Shoppe. If you are hunkered down and not leaving the house at all, then I highly recommend that you visit GCBS on the day the stay home order is lifted, e'er it come. P.S. I'm sorry if "I'm into Something Good" is now playing in a loop in your head. At least it's a cute little song, a 1964 Carole King composition that Herman's Hermits took to #13 on the charts.

I came here with my dad to grab some sweet cheddar popcorn bags but they were out. As I'm browsing around I see 2 SLICES OF CHEESECAKE FOR $6.... Two slices. For the price of one. What a bargain. And it was delicious. I have found my go to cheesecake spot now.

This is the place to go for beef. But in addition to the beef, they also have a deli featuring…read moreBoar's Head products. Plus, they have a nice selection of local produce as well. The main butcher shop and deli are in the middle of the building. To the left is a place to get ice cream. To the right are veggies and other goods. Most of their offerings are from local independent producers, and that's great. But not just the vegetables. The honey, candy, and other items as well. It's not a big place, but it's "real" and supports local. That's a huge plus for us. You'll be greeted with a smile, thanked for shopping there, and treated like a valued customer. Go to Chuck's for your next set of steaks . You'll be glad you did.

They have fresh tamales here occasionally, so we are sure to grab some when we're lucky enough. They also have fresh cornbread almost always available. Beside the meat department is a tall selection of various sweet breads. We have tried them all, and you can not go wrong no matter what you choose. Additionally, they have a well stocked, large selection of Hispanic groceries and some vegetables. Beside them and connected with a doorway in a shared wall is a Mexican restaurant. We've never eaten there, but I'm sure it's going to be quite authentic. I'll do a review on them soon. 5 stars all day!

Excellent selection of Arab / Middle Eastern / Mediterranean / Asian goods. They have a great variety of both the standard staples, such as chick peas, bread, seasonings, yogurts, cheeses, frozen goods, and other raw or prepared ingredients, but also have more nuanced items you might not have seen in a long time had you grown up elsewhere and moved to the US. I don't have to go and order things online anymore. Additionally they have a butcher that has fresh meats that are also halal if you're Muslim. I haven't ever had their meats, and am not Muslim, but I know where to go if I need lamb or goat on special occasions. They don't really have produce beyond some shelf stable items, but that excluded, it's pretty much an oasis. Finally, the store is kept clean, well stocked, and organized. I've never been in there with items I need missing. They recently did a facelift on the front of the store and it looks awesome, very modern and inviting. The owners and their sons are super friendly, extremely kind, even offering to special order things I ask about, and are always in a helpful / cheerful mood! Would HIGHLY recommend stopping in to anyone looking for things they need, or just wanting to see what a Middle Eastern store looks like!

I was greeted upon entry, and began to peruse the freezer and meat cases. I found some hamburger and pork chops on close-out, so threw them in my basket, along with some country style pork ribs. I didn't see any brisket, so I asked the gal who greeted me, and the man cutting meat said there was some in the cooler behind him. The lady pulled two out, both nearly 11 lbs. I would have preferred 3-4 lbs., so I cut it in thirds when I got home. The ribs turned out really well smoked and braised, and the chops were probably the best I've had in long time slow-smoked and reverse-seared. Brisket is on the grill and looking good!
