We had a great experience at Western Daughters. We bought both the burger and meat to cook later. The burger was rich in flavor and stacked to the brim with meat and toppings: house made pickles, bacon, cheese, caramelized onions (yummm). Loved the bun too. They only sell them on Saturdays, I believe! For the raw meat, we got chicken breasts and ground beef. The chicken is noticeably juicier and tastier than what you can get at a grocery store. The ground beef felt about the same. The service was super friendly, but the space is small, so if you're waiting for prepared foods and there are others around, it gets a bit cramped. They offer lots of other meat cuts, as well as other groceries. read more

Love this place. Tyler is a pure, clean food expert. Catch them around 3pm each day to get hot food, right off the stove. It was chicken wings today with big wings and legs. These guys are focused on healthy food and it shows. Forgot to take a before pic so you get to see the after. :-) read more

$47 a pound strip steak good flavor tough as leather. I feel violated. Better options around town read more

I've come to this place several times now, and while the meat is an excellent quality some of the staff is not knowledgeable or experienced. Have them show you the cuts before they package them up. I came to get two porterhouse stakes for 4 people, brought them home, and opened up the package, the steaks were thin and definitely not a portion for two. Luckily we had time to get two more, but they cook much better when they are thick. Next time my husband went to get 6 fillets of 7-8 oz each. When he arrived home the cuts were all different sizes and shapes, ranging from 10-6 oz. We were beyond annoyed. For the price, I expect excellent quality and service. read more

You don't get much meat in the Mausoleum. So, we gotta get it at butchers like this place! And the store itself was pretty awesome, meats all fresh and chilling on their racks. With a wide variety of marinades, sauces and butters to accomodate any vooking curiosities. The dude who assisted us was on the money, too! He cut things to exact portions with no weighing. Then he rounded off our visit with a taste of their slow-cooked prime rib. Amazing stuff! Now the real problems are outside the store. The streets are just a mess to navigate, and everyone around here parks like a Californian. I mean, literally just stop anywhere and call it a human right levels of entitlement. We had to come from 5 blocks down because of the parking was so terrible. If they ever move, I'd support it wholly. read more

I cannot resist a speciality food shop so when I happened upon Western Daughters on a walk through the neighborhood I had no choice but to stop in. It's a tiny little shop that manages to keep lots of fun specialty foodie things in stock including spices, honey, nut butter, house-rendered lard, and even some produce like onions and potatoes to round out your farm-fresh protein if you're in a pinch. Among the delicious looking chicken and aged steak, they had some pork dumpling sausages in the case that caught my eye and I ended up picking up two of those to try. I didn't catch the name of the guy who helped me but he was great about answering my questions and giving me some recommendations on how to prepare the meat I'd just purchased. He also gave me a cup of warm bone broth on the house since they were closing soon, which was one of those simple customer service gestures that makes an impression. read more

So unhappy. After polling multiple people looking for a skin-on pork loin, Western Daughters came highly recommended. I was especially interested because they're woman-owned. Spent $130 for a pork loin for a special recipe for grandma's last (probably) thanksgiving. They were super friendly via email and phone, took instructions for how we wanted the skin scored. Lines straight across about 1/2-to-1 cm apart. We picked it up today and got it home and noticed the skin is cut in diagonal lines about 1" apart. Tried calling over and over and over again, and they don't answer their phones, which wasn't a big deal because we only live 6 miles away, so I drove it back over here. I fully expected them to tell me they couldn't do anything to fix the issue regarding the fact that they cut the lines diagonally, but I expected them to at least help me out with cutting additional lines in. They won't. It's a health code thing. Huge bummer. Especially considering it's still in the vacuum pack. I spent $130 on this cut of meat. It's wrong. I could have picked up some cheap cut of meat and done this myself (but really no, I couldn't - I've never dealt with skin-on pork, I have no idea how deep to cut, I haven't had my knives sharpened in a while, I have no idea how to fix this... that's why I spent the extra and ordered from a real butcher). I spent $130 expecting it to be done per the order. Why spend the extra? Especially if they won't make it right. Don't waste your dollars if they're not going to stand behind their product and their work. read more

The eggs are so good! We have made this a weekend tradition for us. We hang next door for a hit for eats and drinks (fantastic btw) then we head next door for the weeks meats, eggs and milk. Quality products and the people are great! read more

Fantastic experience at Western Daughters. Was providing the protein for a dinner and provided them all of the info (number of people, our cooking level, time willing to put into the prep, etc.) and they provided fantastic advice and input to help me make the choice of what we'd be having. I truly appreciated the time they took to talk through all of the options with me and even provided the detail I needed in order to ensure I didn't turn it into beef jerky. Grabbed a couple additional market items off their shelves that all ended up being fantastic items to have in my pantry. Will happily be returning to this quality butcher shoppe for any of my future purchases. read more

This butcher shop is one of the best there in in the area. Great cuts of meat and nice variety of accessories to add spice to your dishes.

House ground beef blend is the shit. Seriously, it's so moist after cooking that you'll go back for more. Yes, prices are high, but you're paying for quality. The older you get the more you need to pay attention into what's going in your body. What used to take a night to recover from, will now take several. Keep that in mind when you're looking for ground beef that's $1.99/lb. You're doing more harm than good my friend. Maybe get a 12 pack of coors banquet intstead of tank 7 farmhouse ale to balance the budget. Whatever you decide, just know that you won't regret buying your meats here. Plus it's kinda cool telling people you buy your meats from a butcher shop. Do it... read more

I read the recent reviews and decided to try this place anyway because, as many mentioned, the only alternative I know for dry aged beef is Whole Foods. We were hoping for something a little more local-feeling and we definitely found it here. First of all, the vibe in this butcher shop is everything you could hope for and more. SO many awesome products, superfoods, all the things you could need to make an amazing dinner (or any meal). The customer service was amazing, I didn't catch the name of the girl helping me but she was very informative, telling me exactly what ranch in Longmont my cut was from, plus offered to cut the meat until it was exactly the weight I wanted. She asked if I wanted the fat trimmed - and in my opinion, if you want it trimmed and you don't ask, that shouldn't be on them because it's not obvious to do so with this type of high quality meat. She also threw in a bit of marrow they had formed into a figurine which was over the top amazing + gave me an intro on how to best cook with it. We're so jazzed we found our new go-to for local grass fed meat. read more

Western Daughters is the only place in Denver that we will purchase our meats from! The quality of the meat is second to none and love knowing that the meat was ethically raised and harvested. The customer service from every single person there is top notch and they always have the best recommendations on cuts of meat for recipes! Seriously, get the pork cheek, best recommendation they ever gave me. I look forward to my weekly trip there to see the crew and see what they have in the cases! read more

So disappointed I order 4lbs of meat and asked to have it sliced thinly like deli meat (1/4 in slices) and got 2 in cubed chunks. Spent $100 on something I can't use and they won't take it back and they don't have anymore. read more

Wow. Killer shop. I was visiting Denver for my first time and wanted to grill some steaks for me and a friend. We came home w two dry aged ribeyes that we're out of this world. Amazing fat content. Super kudos to butcher shops that have produce... just enough so I didn't have to go to another market!!! Icing on the cake was a little cube of bone marrow that upon the butchers suggestion I used as butter on top of the steaks as they were resting. Ten stars. read more

Got there 15" before closing-they couldn't cut the meat we wanted because they put their saw away. They did give us someone else's dry aged order and the meat was great, had a deep smokiness to it. Delicious. read more

I was feeling under the weather while visiting Denver and the fine folks at Western Daughter's helped me out on the phone and let me know they had fresh bone broth made and were serving it up by the cup or by the quart. So I jumped in an Uber from my hotel, had the driver wait and went inside for a quart of homemade bone broth, a few glass bottles of Topo Chico and a very friendly welcome to the shop. I will run back here for their deliciously nutritious beef bone broth as soon as I'm back in Denver later this month. read more

Never have I recommended a business more highly. The poor reviews of this shop honestly shock me. My husband and I live down the road, but to be completely honest we do not make that much money. So to hear people complain of the price is baffling. High quality ETHICALLY sourced animals should be more expensive. Despite being on a budget we prioritize spending our money on products that didn't come from torture farms. Instead of wondering why the price is high here you should be asking why it's so low elsewhere. When we first came to WD we were transiting from a vegan diet to paleo for health reasons. The employees went above and beyond to help us. They gave great tips and suggestions and even threw in a free sausage to try. The customer service is superb. Always warm and friendly and knowledgeable. I feel and taste the value in every purchase. Your passion doesn't go unnoticed, WD! read more

Amazing butcher shop with so many different specialty cuts and artisanal items in the fridge. Lovely customer service and the best steak I've had in a long time, this Texan is happy. And at $32/pound for a 32 day dry-aged ribeye? Not bad. The most I've ever paid for a ribeye per pound was $55 for some washugyu ribeye and can tell the quality in their ribeyes here. Points reward system too. Spend $200, $10 back. I usually buy my meat at Whole Foods when I'm lazy but man, I'll make the drive back here anytime for some steaks. They do offer other meats but as a Texan, I won't be walking in a butcher shop asking for some lamb or chicken. Lol! Get here stat. read more

This is the only place in Denver that carries a variety of NU Shuk products!! I am in love with their variety of high quality specialty products that I need for cooking. They also sell lard they render themselves too! If you consider yourself to be a fairly serious home chef, this place needs to be on you spots to check out! read more

Great selection of classic cuts, unconventional cuts and sausages! My husband and I exclusively buy meat at Whole Foods but we were pleasantly surprised with some of the things we were able to find at this butcher shop - we picked up the pork sirloin steak (fatty bacon-y take on the average pork chop), turmeric carrot sausages, pork belly & brisket. The pork sirloin came out great simply grilled with oil, salt and pepper. The sausages were savory and unique in flavor. The brisket was perfectly smokey and the pork belly was the perfect cut! Staff is also friendly, helpful and knowledgeable on cuts and how to prepare. We will definitely be back and make this a regular Sunday butcher shop run! read more

I purchased some dry aged ribeyes for my Dad's 70th birthday, so he's had a lot of steaks in his lifetime, and he said without question this was the best steak he has ever had. In fact, pretty much everyone in my family agrees these steaks are incredible. Pricey, of course, but definitely worth the cost when you are getting the best there is. read more

In response to Josh: I have patiently waited outside for 30+ minutes on numerous occasions, while many others have simply left. No complaints from me at all. Sometimes irritated because it's usually a couple holding up the line, but nothing to get upset about. When you decide to make everyone call the ONE phone line in the store to place an order when they are literally standing outside, people are going to get frustrated. When after 20+ calls you still haven't gotten anyone on the phone to place your order. You start to get upset. When you spend 30+ minutes calling a store you are literally STANDING IN FRONT of- patience has gone out the window. read more

A friend recommended Western Daughters a few months ago (pre-pandemic), and now we're hooked. We live nearby and have been coming by every 2-3 weeks! Our typical order includes some sausages (the breakfast sausages are good, and so are the hot italian - plus they're all made in house!), and different cuts of beef and/or pork that we've thrown on the grill, on the stove, in the oven and slow-cooked. When in doubt, I just ask whoever's helping me that day for suggestions and they have plenty of tips & tricks to share! We've also tried their chicken (amazingly fresh, also surprisingly large for 2 people to finish), eggs, produce and bread. And, I recently found they have frozen bolognese next to the frozen stock cubes! I'm always impressed by what I find there (like duck eggs!), and can't wait to try more (like the marrow cubes I've been eyeing for a while). Like other reviewers have said, Western Daughters is pricier than a conventional grocery store or upscale supermarket, which is why I'm not here every day or even every week. IMO, you can definitely taste the difference in the quality of their product so it's worth it if you can afford it, and I personally value that it's all locally & humanely sourced, too. I want to support local farmers and ranchers, so for me it's a no brainer to work a trip to WD into my grocery budget in lieu of other things. If you're budget conscious, I'd still suggest checking them out and trying one of their boxes (order online and they deliver or you can pick up), which are actually a really good value in terms of cost per pound & quality, OR going earlier in the day so you have more choices. I've found that they're usually busiest in the late afternoon (a line out the door/around the back since only 2 people can shop at a time), and that if you wait until right before closing time, they might be sold out of the cuts you want! read more

The ONLY butcher shoppe I will go to in Denver. All meats are grass-fed or pasture-raised. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Everything is local and sustainable raised. I've tried to find good sources of meat at sprouts, whole foods, and even vitamin shoppe but this place does it right. Western Daughter's Butcher Shoppe is a one stop shop for food that's healthy for your body and that is great for the earth. Freshly made bone broths, a good variety of rendered fats, and even BACON from a local pasture-raised pig... amazing. Couldn't recommend this place more. read more

Western Daughters Butcher Shoppe - Casey is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. . Highly recommended - Butcher Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Things I'm grateful for right now: my good health, my dog, and the fact that I live practically right next door to Western Daughters. I love that I can support a local butcher and that I can take comfort in knowing that whatever cut from whatever animal I've purchased from there has been treated with care and thoughtfulness through every stage. The quality of meat? Unparalleled. The service? Exceptional. All the employees there are SO helpful, welcoming, and pleasant. All they really want is to serve you an exceptional product and for you to be happy enough to keep on coming back. Yes it's pricy, but if it's within your budget, I highly recommend spending a little bit more to get high quality meat that's been sustainably and responsibly raised and butchered.

By far the tastiest meat I've ever had. All beef is 100% Grass-fed and it tastes terrific. Prices may be slightly higher than grocery stores, but the meat cooks with no loss & is of such high quality it is worth it. Customer service is great. read more

I stopped in to get a celebration steak for the grill and the butcher recommended the sirloin as they're short on the premium cuts Sunday afternoon. I noticed they had dry aged sirloin for about $23 per pound. Grilled it and it's amazing. So lean and red. The service was exceptional. I heard him talking to others and very knowledgeable. I also got some house cured bacon and breakfast sausage. I plan on making this a regular stop read more

I come to Denver once a year to see family and I'm always on the hunt for a good butcher with fresh ground chuck for burgers. Look no further! This place must make their chuck daily. The meat was marbled well and not "sticky" like you find with King Soopers or other grocery market meats. It made for nice and juicy burgers. For those interested, the meat is also grass-fed, non-antibiotics, etc. People working there are very nice too! If you live in Denver or are visiting, it's worth the drive and easy street parking to this butcher for your meats. read more
