Great butcher just a shame about burger bombs far to much garlic & it didn't go with the beef on the other hand a big lump of cheddar might be a bit tastier pastry was fab just a shame about the garlic too strong spoiled it

I was in Auchterarder and thought it would be a lovely treat whilst there to visit this butcher (always happy with the produce) I bought a steak pie (lovely) sausages and black pudding.
In opening the… sausages (assuming a 6 pack) like all other retailers have writhing this size and shape of packet....there were only 4! VERY misleading to the consumer that beneath the label would be nothing. So disappointed with what feels like trickery on the butchers part!!

Just finished our Valentines meal and it was awesome. The quality of the food was superb and no hassle cooking. All done in the oven. Easy enough for my hubby to follow the cooking instructions.💞

Due to Illness I bought a few ready meals for convenience. The cheese sprinkled on top of the mac and cheese was mouldy all over ! Disappointing as the meat is always great quality.

I did a click and collect today. I really don't like shopping these days but the young man who served me was so polite and helpful and I was in and out of the shop quickly. Great produce as always.

Recently bought their bacon (premium dry cure streaky smoked bacon) at tesco as the tesco finest streaky smoked bacon wasn't available. Very disappointed with the taste also the way it cooked was like it had water in it although label says it doesn't have. Don't know how other products but would not recommend this one...

For the last 5 or 6 years I've purchased my Christmas turkey and rib roasts from Simon Howie in Perth. Great quality product; wonderful selection; professional and helpful staff and very smart and energetic marketing. I shall continue.

Asked for 2 x 10oz ribeye steaks. The staff said they would cut them fresh.
The skill to cut 2 steaks by eye, to within grams of desired weight is a sheer talent.
Everyone had a smile as they served, and the produce was delicious!
