Services
We relocated to North Devon in 2001 and have be running our shop in Bideford town center for 5 years now. We are really happy to now be dealing directly with farmers and local suppliers as this was not really possible in London where we required a specialist meat buyer who would visit local markets to purchase stock on our behalf.
We've been a family butcher for over 126 years, now 5th and 6th generation family members! This means we know all there is to know about meat, how to prepare the best cuts and the proper, traditional way butchery should be done. We are proud to offer a traditional service with modern convenience. When you buy from us, you know that you are getting best quality, west country produce which has been reared to the absolute highest standards.
We care about the origin of our produce. We source all of our meat from local suppliers, and work closely with ethical local farmers, We buy in whole or half carccases, take the animal apart with care and use every piece.just the way it should be. We feel that buying in this way is the only way to guarantee the consistent quality of our meat.
The way cows are fed can have a major effect on the nutrient composition of the beef. Whereas cattle today are often fed grains, the animals we ate throughout evolution roamed free and ate grass. Many studies have shown that the nutrients in beef can vary depending on what the cows eat. Most cows start out living similar lives.
To place an order, simply go to our online store and select your products and submit an order. We'll then call you back to confirm the order and take payment. During the current crisis, we are able to arrange collection from the front of the shop from the safety of your car. Please use the message field below to indicate your wish to do so.

We've been ordering from Hirons throughout lockdown and have been so impressed with both the produce and the customer service. Friendly and prompt, well packaged and presented; real care is taken with both the quality of the meat and how it gets to you. We've had everything from tasty sausages, bacon and liver to beautifully melty chicken thighs, lamb mince, out-of-this-world venison burgers and the most tender rump steak ever for our lockdown wedding anniversary dinner. 10/10!

We had the most amazing tomahawk steak for my birthday yesterday. Cooked on the BBQ. Divine. Would highly recommend. Very friendly and with good advice. Made my lockdown birthday a whole lot better. Always… support the local guys. Oh and our Christmas order of Turkey, pigs and a cooked ham was perfect. You should also try their beef burgers. The best. Thank you

What else is there to say but WOW! Another amazing order of meat from Hiron & Son's. We brought in bulk to keep in the freezer till Christmas. Just had the Massive joint of Belly pork on the bone, beautiful tasting and just fell off the bone. Loads of wonderful crackling as well. Also had the Huge joint of beef topside, flavour was excellent, no tough bits or gristle at all. The whole joint sliced perfectly and everyone complimented the meat. Thank you 👍❤️👍
