Reams is like a grocery store for just meat. After hearing about Reams for most of my life, I…read morefinally decided to check out this location as I was in the area The location is very easy to find. Parking was plentiful, and I entered the building not knowing what to expect. When you enter, you can see this is a just a different but amazing place. They have freezers with meat, deli cases with meat, fridge with meat, and more deli cases with meat. There are other non-meat like cheese, desserts, and bread. For my visit, I bought some Braunschwager aka: liver sausage. The flavor was very good.. but yet a little strong for my taste bud. However, I would still rate it top 10 that I have ever tried. Jerky dip was delicious. It was very easily spreadable and a little sweet. Wagyu Tallow was in the end of the fridge aisle. I will have to test this out when I smoke some brisket or something. Overall, the prices were very reasonable especially given today's-inflation prices. I am a huge fan and will return in the future to try more stuff. Especially the jerky!

Far better than we have gotten from Joseph's or Costco! Saving the "prime" for maybe Fathers Day? ‍. Fresh fish looked good too but came to try steaks. Picked up some store made mild salsa and enjoyed some on the patio today! I loved it! But don't recall if they offered a spicier version...which my son prefers? Only negative I could find is they don't offer a very large deli variety; nor do they make many salads to choose from. Joseph's has them beat there! Mostly I'm THRILLED a butcher shop is open past 5:00PM! Commuters and lazy people like me will appreciate that!!
