Crombie's is a darn impressive butcher located on Broughton Street. I come here when I want to feel…read morefancy at dinner time (and when I have the cash to spend). I've bought an amazing lamb rack, steaks, sausages and short ribs from here. All of which have been outstanding. Firstly, the sausages. Crombie's are famous for them! And they are delicious. Well worth the trip just to stock up on sausages. Everything else, the quality of the meet has been great. I've recently purchased a sous vide machine so anything that can be slow cooked for hours is going from Crombie's butcher straight into my machine for hours on end. One thing, it's expensive compared to what you'd get from the grocery stores. I've found the quality to be way better but be warned- it might put a dent in your wallet. Great selection of marinades, ready to cook pies and other savoury pastries, and service is always friendly and helpful.

Crombie's is the best butcher in Edinburgh and luckily it is located just around the corner from my…read moreflat, hurrah! If you mention this place to any self respecting Edinburgh carnivore, they should acknowledge you with a contented sigh ("ahhhh, Crombie's") and a wistful look in their eye. Their sausages are widely regarded as amongst the best in the UK and they supply lots of local restaurants with them to keep the punters happy. There are many different varieties to choose from and they range from the traditional (pork, chipolatas, Scotch beef) to the exotic (boar, pork and stilton is an inspired and tasty combination). Asides from sausages, they do the usual butcher cuts of meat (steaks, lamb etc) and meals for you to heat at home if you can't be bothered cooking. Most of the meat is locally sourced and everything is incredibly good quality. It's just a shame that they close at 5.30pm, far too early for those of us with office jobs.

I always knew there was such thing as good meats and bad meats, but until I came here I never…read morerealised you could get meat this good. It's not the cheapest of places to buy your meat, but I think even Scrooge would spend a few quid here every new and then. Once inside the shop the range on offer is vast and all very tempting. The staff will generally ask you what you want, but don't feel you have to refrain from browsing they won't rush you with your order so take your time to find what you want. Whilst many of the goods aren't that cheap the entry level goods here are still of very high quality and unless you really want to treat your taste buds should suffice. All in, this is a high end butchers that really delivers on quality.

These guys are great, knowledgeable and very friendly. To be honest, I haven't bought meat here but…read morenoticed that they sell pinhead oats at a really good price compared to other places. This is my regular breakfast, so I'm glad to buy most of my future porridge here. It's within easy walking distance of the city centre as well as residential areas such as Bruntsfield and Morningside. It looks like they sell excellent quality meats and there always seem to be regulars in here to purchase their meats.

We were staying in a "self catering" so we were able to buy locally and make our own meals. As…read moretourists, we were spending most of our time in Edinburgh but thought we'd take a ride through the surrounding area. We happened upon Peebles. It's a wonderful little town and as we wandered up the high street we noticed a line of people standing outside a shop. It turned out to be Forsyth's; we looked around the window displays and decided to "join the queue." We're glad we did, their pies, sausages and meats were excellent. We bought enough for our supper and some for breakfast the next day. We would recommend this butcher / baker to anyone in the area....and frankly when we're in Edinburgh again, we'll make the drive to Peebles to patronize this shop, it's worth the drive....and the wait!

What a fantastic sized Farm Shop on Hopetoun Estate. I have…read morebeen going there a few times. Sometimes just for browsing. Their meat, pies, fish, cheese are all fresh. You can get good quality cakes, assortment of chutneys, sauces, jams, biscuits, sweets, fruits in season, wines, craft beers, gins, eggs etc. The staff is really friendly. This is also where you can get a temporary access pass for "lallybroch" when visiting the film site for Outlander. When at the Hopetoun estate or nearby, definitely worth a visit.

If the length of queue to pick up your Christmas order is anything to go by then I knew I was on to a winner. I queued for over an hour on Dec 23, while heavily pregnant, to pick up my order. I can honestly say it was worth it, as Christmas lunch was fantastic! I have paid several visits to this butchers since then and I can reassure that although this is a busy little place the queues aren't normally as long as at Christmas! I have sampled several of their award-winning sausages, and can report that their pork & leek sausages are delicious! They also have a great range of prepared meals ready to go in the oven. From these I love their chicken fillets in a white wine sauce. If you like your steaks visit on a Monday and if you buy two steaks you get a free sauce to go with your steak. I have bought their rib-eye steaks which are deliciously beefy and tender. If Muirhead is out of your reach, then do check out their website as they have an online ordering and delivery service. If you can though, it is worth a visit. Although it is a little small, the shop is pristine and the produce is well presented. There are often daily or weekly special offers also and a Gold Card loyalty scheme to reward regular customers.

The…read moremeat is tender and juicy, the gravy inside is a nice surprise and the pastry makes a nice finish! It is especially good if served up with mashed potatoes and peas. The shop itself is very clean and is in a central location, at the junction connecting the High Street with West Port. The staff inside are friendly enough and the meat that is on sale is of very good quality. Lately the shop has been a bit sparse but I suppose that it is summer, the time when Dunbar is especially busy with families on holiday buying dinner. The extra custom is good for business but it means that I can't get my hands on a steak pie as they have been sold out for all of this week! You should get a pie, sausages and some chicken and you will have a nice meat feast! It is also pretty reasonably priced as well with an upper price limit of about £15.

I've never seen a butchers in my whole life this busy and this is because it is a very good butchers, especially when you consider it in terms of value for money. Prices start at just over £3 per kilo for ribs and the first boneless item comes in at just under £4 per kilo for some pork shoulder. As you move up the quality of the meat the price remains very good value for money as it moves up with the quality and this is what makes this place so popular. Put simply, this is one of the better butchers in town.
