Among our Pork suppliers is David Orpwood from Woods Farm near Watlington, set in the rolling hills of the South Oxfordshire countryside. The Pork from these pigs is amazing and a testament to the care and effort that Woods Farm uses throughout. The pigs are bred from Duroc cross Landrace sows with a meatline Large White Boar.
Great British Lamb sums it up. Whether from the Welsh Hills or the West Country, our lamb is second to none and reflects the natural conditions in which it is reared. Good grazing & clear clean air are key to Great Lamb. So with a great product to start with our butchers can prepare a wonderful Lamb Leg Roast, a succulent French Trimmed Rack of Lamb or a tasty Lamb Leg Knuckle.
Oxfordshire again provides a wonderful product in our great value Chickens, whether whole, halved or cut into Legs, Thighs, Breasts & Supremes etc. We also offer the superb Shropshire & Highbury Free Range Chicken, where each bird carries on it the name of the farmer who reared it.
Why not try Gressingham Duck - whole or in cuts, or we can pop across the channel and bring home some Corn Fed Chicken, Guinea Fowl or the famous Magret Duck - again either whole or as breast and legs.

Wonderful service with a real community feel. Online ordering is useful too. We wouldn't get our Christmas turkey anywhere else! Everything else they do is great too and service is always with a smile - just watching the way regular customers are greeted by the staff proves how friendly they are. Super establishment.

Such a great place. The guys behind the counter are super lovely and very helpful, always feel welcome walking in the shop. The meat is really good quality, grass fed which gives it a better nutritional profile, and very good price too. They stock some gems like local eggs and artisan butter and cheese too. This place was a life saver during lockdown.

Visited 'The Caversham Butcher' for the first time yesterday. I was really pleased with the customer service who work there, very friendly and good humour. I got some lovely bacon and sausages from there and a cheeky scotch egg and sausage roll. The meat was really tasty and well priced and not that much more expensive than a supermarket but the quality was far better. Will defiantly be visiting again! Thanks guys, Josh.
