Many of our suppliers are 'one man/women bands' or family businesses that have been doing their craft for many years. We choose our own produce in many cases - but equally rely on fantastic partners that share our ethos of artisan quality. Our meat comes from 2 farms in Cheshire - only 20-30 miles from the shop.
The cattle are all free-range, grass fed in the growing season and grown to the highest levels of husbandry available. Our prime cuts are 28-38 days dry aged on average. That is the promise from our main suppliers at Packington and is so important to us. If ever there was a sector of the industry that is abused and animal husbandry neglected or ignored it is with the industrial production of pigs and chickens.

Amazing array of meats. They also have quite a selection of deli items to browse through. They sell booze and now have tables outside for a few people to sit and try some of their stuff.
Been going for years and will always shop there. Whether it’s chicken thighs for a curry or a well aged steak for a treat

Excellent establishment, with friendly and very knowledgeable staff who were more than happy to help… Friends and I came for lunch, steak cooked on the BBQ outside, along with sliced potatoes with cheese and a fried egg, delicious and cooked to perfection. I had a lovely glass of wine recommended by Charlotte, and it didn’t disappoint. This deli is very much worth your time.

Been craving steak but unable to eat as I'm pregnant and refuse well done (just no) I was recommended a filet that would still be tender if well done and it didn't disappointing! Hubby is enjoying his steak… burgers and the toddler is inhaled the port and truffle sausages! I've loved this place for a while and have always gotten quality meat and great recommendations when I'm not sure what to to get!

Greeted by a very knowledgeable guy who definitely knew his stuff and how to cook it. We bought 2 fillet steaks which, when cooked where to die for. I am not normally a steak lover but to be honestbthese where absolutely amazing. The depth of flavour was incredible. Would highly recommend, next time I am going to try the sausages they make on site, cannot wait!

Genius. A true Gem. More an experience than a Butchers. More a treat than it is shopping. Apart for a huge array of incredible meat in the Butcher' s counter, there are interesting cheeses, brilliant… charcuterie (p.s. Wild boar prosciutto is to die for), natural wines and other top notch bits like unusual pasta, fresh bread and condiments. There is even a chance to sample a glass of wine , nibble on some food in the shop while waiting or lingering over the library of gastronomic books. . All topped off with fantastic staff (Graeme, Liam and Will) , who couldn't be more friendly or knowledgeable

A great big shout out for the lovely guys at The Butcher's Quarter who went out of their way home on Saturday evening to retrieve my cheese which hadn't been placed in my bag in the shop. Thanks a million. Also the lamb I bought was delicious. Outstanding service and good quality items. I will be back.

What a gem this place is, just an all round fantastic business! Ever since the Yelp event where I've been intending on coming in for some steaks as the options they have are great!
Prices on the meat can seem a little higher but you are in Manchester and boy do you get good quality - definitely worth paying a little extra for quality as it's still much much less than restaurant prices!
I popped in the other day to grab some rib eye steaks for the weekend and ended up staying for a good 10 minutes chatting to the butcher on that day about the variations of steak, how each should be cooked

After an amazing yelp event here I was able to confidently say I'd definitely be coming here to try out their produce!! Everything is locally sourced and the staff know their stuff when it comes to their produce, happy to offer advice on cooking times etc!!
Unfortunately I don't live or work in central manchester so its not so convenient for me... but last night we cooked up one of their amazing rib of beef steaks.... 800g of bliss!!! The meat was melt in your mouth and full of flavour!! It cost £15, which I think for the quality is actually quite good value as you would pay around

I discovered this Butcher located in the NQ few meters away from Evuna thanks to a Yelp Elite event!
that was such a success that I decided to try this place again... At first I wanted to get duck breast but they didnt have any so went for the Beef Rib Steak after to have seen some appetizing pictures on Yelp!
and I wasnt disapointed! the meat tasted so nice and melted in the mouth! I've been looking for a decent butcher since I moved in Manchester and this one could be perfect if it was closer to where I live (not to have it on my doorstep will probably prevent me from spending a fortune

YES! This is what Manchester has been waiting for! A proper butchers shop within the city centre selling high quality cuts of meat and other premium produce all sourced locally.
I love The Butchers Quarter - every time I come here I'm greeted with so much enthusiasm and joy it's just so refreshing! The guys who work here are clearly passionate about meat and they can answer pretty much any question that you have. They offer advice on how best to cook the meats that you're buying, how to prepare them and how to get the most for your money. They'll let you know where the meats
