Kenny Owen and his wife Yolanda continue to adhere to the values that have always been the hallmark of the family butcher's business, established in 1925 by Kenny's grandfather, John D. Owen, with traditionally hung meats and a wide selection of local produce.

From the bright and attractive deli-style premises in the town's Victoria Street, Kenny and Yolanda continue to sell the very best quality Scottish beef, lamb, pork and chicken along with artisan Scottish cheeses and a delicious range of accompaniments including chutneys, pickles, Galloway honey, their own home cooked meats, olives and antipasti - everything you would expect from a quality deli counter.

Smashing butchers that also has a small bakery. Sausage rolls and pork pies were excellent as were the cakes we bought and all were very reasonably priced.

What a fantastic find I was looking for a few nice bits for our anniversary meal, it's the best butcher I've been to and the baked goods are next level. The cake tastes amazing and the prices are amazing £ 1.50 for a massive wedge of the most moist Victoria sponge and £ 2.00 for lemon drizzle loaf ,which was perfect ,staff are so nice and helpful best shop in newton stewart by far ..love it

We run The Stables Guesthouse in Newton Stewart (so we make a lot of breakfasts). We often get excellent comments & reviews about the breakfasts. We think a good part of that is down to the pork sausage and back bacon (cut on no.8 so it’s a bit thicker than standard) that we buy from J D Owen butchers, where we always get super quick and friendly service 👍

Just visited Owens whilst on holiday and bought some Brisket Bombs. Oh my goodness how delicious they were. Now really looking forward to eating the other goodies we bought today. We will be back Owens. Class butchers!

A great cheese shop as well, one of the few places that you can find Colston Basset, Stilton, a great cheese. They have other blue cheeses, such as Montalomo a soft blue creamy cheese, utterly delicious.
I am also a fan, of the curried pasties.

Wow...called into here while we were on holiday.
What a great butcher's. All the meat we got was terrific, the sausage wrapped in bacon with a peppercorn sauce in the middle...yum yum, the pork and apple burgers and pork sausages were also very yummy too.
Going to call before we go home to take some back to Leeds with us.
