The most important thing for me was that the pork is stunned electrically before killing rather than the cruel way most suppliers use. The Ethical Butcher replied to my query quickly with reassurances... See more

I love my meat :)

I’ve been ordering from The Ethical Butcher for some time now and I honestly feel good about what I’m feeding my family. As a carnivore, quality really matters to me, and their meat is always fresh, flavorful, and responsibly raised. Knowing it comes from regenerative farms makes it even better — I can enjoy my food knowing it’s healthier for us and better for the planet.

There is still not enough companies that cares this much about both the product and the environment. I make an order every week and I always know I will get amazing tasting and healthy meat. Thank you

Amazing tasting meat!

Amazing tasting meat, look forward to every meal! Very happy with overall service from ease of website to delivery to customer service. Thought about knocking a star off for an item missing from order but quick and helpful response from customer service felt like it would be unfair. Love everything about the company's ethos, very happy to no longer be eating supermarket meat, the quality is far superior with only a small price increase, well worth it.
I rarely leave reviews but I whole heartedly support The Ethical Butcher's approach to farming and animal welfare, the quality of the meat speaks for itself! Highly recommend!

Excellent quality meat you can trust

The meat for The Ethical Butcher is always top quality, and the eating experience is enhanced by the knowledge that it has been raised in a way that's best for the animals and best for the soil. The Chateaubriand is one of our favourites. Wonderful to cook and makes the best steak ever.

Amazing quality meat

Amazing quality meat

You can tell it's high quality grass fed. Just buy some and try some for yourself! I often get the fortified beef mince and the 30% beef mince, I spend £100 and I freeze it, keeps me going
