Went in at 3-20pm , an hour and 40 minutes before closing time and asked for some slices of ham and turkey. Was told couldn't cut any because he had already cleaned down the machine. 1 why is the machine being cleaned so early and 2 any butcher of any quality would then have offered to hand calve it.
He did say I have a few slices of ham already cut. He then placed them into a bag and weighed it including the sealed bag weight. Nice way of charging more. We have no idea how much the ham cost as we weren't told.Waitrose over the road gave you service with a smile and was cheaper.

Well to start with.. the most beautifully aged Devon reared fillet steak. Simply exceptional. The lamb and mint pasties are to die for .A Sunday dinner wrapped in the most delightful pastry. Top Class produce and service.

Part of coming to Okehampton is knowing my parents get their meat from Martins.
Steak was fantastic tonight and looking forward to roast beef tomorrow. Great butchers with consistent quality.

Martins do the best sausages. They are the most expensive, but they are the tastiest.

Before lockdown, I used the Chagford shop for buying all my meat and cheeses. Andy was always friendly, and knowledgable. The quality of meat here is superb and Im a big fan of their steaks as they are full of flavour and butter soft!

Wonderful welcoming very helpful friendly staff. Very impressed with quality of meats I bought recently. The shop was super clean and well presented with loads to choose from. Including bread, rolls, pickles, sauces etc etc. Plus lovely cooked sliced meats. And pasties, pies and sausage rolls. I spent my winning meat voucher well. Best meat I’ve tasted. This will now become my weekly meat shop butchers. Definitely recommend 🌟😀

I fancied brisket the way my mother used to cook and happened to see the special offer. It was lovely meat, lean and very tasty indeed. We live a long way from Okehampton but will call again asap.
