MikeApril 1, 2017Although pricey, it doesn't matter what you pick out. This is probably the best butcher in the city with very knowledgeable employees. My personal favorite are the fresh Hungarian sausages.
Michael NejedlyJuly 27, 2013Great butcher shop and store. Expensive, but well worth it, for quality meats and homemade sausages of all types. I'll shop again!
Time Out ChicagoJune 4, 2012Your focus goes immediately to the divine sausages tucked into homemade bread; the chubby ground beef patties oozing with fresh, mild cheese; and the hearty bowls of bean soup.- Time Out ChicagoMay 23, 2012Your focus goes immediately to the divine sausages tucked into homemade bread; the chubby ground beef patties oozing with fresh, mild cheese; and the hearty bowls of bean soup. -RW
Jon B.April 4, 2021One of the best butchers in Chicago. If you need something unique, they will have it.
Arek DreyerDecember 24, 2015If you don't need butcher services, you don't have to take a number! Just go right up to the register and they'll check you out.
All of the meat types and cuts you can imagine. Go here for the experience and the quality!
Jono FerrerJanuary 7, 2016Favorite butchers in the city. They're old, kind and more knowledgeable about meat than you.- Anthony PeshaApril 27, 2011The Lamb sticks are awesome, the jerky is the best I've ever had. Get a rack of lamb cut into chops. Best meat market in Illinois.
Joe KieferAugust 20, 2013Not cheap, but the quality is top notch! The sausage variety is GLORIOUS!!!
Rob N.May 3, 2012Jerky is cut to order, the best stuff in the store to snack on. Ask Brian to cut it to order, he knows his stuff.
MarcellaNovember 28, 2011the locals call this the meat muesum because they have. 10 Butchers on site. Best meat on Northside.
Aaron SilversMay 30, 2011There is an entire cooling case devoted to Bratwurst. Think about that for a moment. Their Tomato/Basil Brats are divine. Read more
DCLies .February 17, 2011Their sliced-to-order beef jerky is insanely good. It falls somewhere between dried beef and traditional beef jerky.
Crystal PowellMay 22, 2014I remember when they were on Paulina and mom and I went with the shopping cart
- People leaving a tip like "too expensive" - as compared to what? Jewel? You're buying high-quality (sometimes prime) meats. You get what you pay for.
