The Hampstead Butcher & Providore

Wonderful butchers with great quality meat , their sausages are amazing. Staff are so friendly and helpful. The also do a wide range of products to complement the meat like Italian olive oils and wines. An asset to West Hampstead high Street and the community.

The use of ‘butcher’ in their name is generous, if not entirely deceitful.

Any meat I have had that is butchered has had shards of bone in, and the meat is priced to a level that I would expect at least a basic level of butchery

The cold meats and cheese selection is however very good, but is somewhat offset by the unsolicited advice given every time I purchase any meat.

Apparently my relatively youthful exterior gives me an air of ineptitude, which the staff never fail to capitalise on. I have been offered not only erroneous advice on whether I should be buying smoked or unsmoked pancetta, but also to what the internal temperature of my ribs should be.

A butcher normally just deals with the preparation of a carcass, not the cooking. Judging by their ability with the former, I won’t be taking advice on the latter

Some people might be tempted to say they are the best butcher in London...
Reality or approximation??
I don’t know
But definitely a place where you see at a glance the meat is of high quality choice.
Inside there is also a large choice of « épicerie «

Great quality meat, that taste delicious. You can taste the difference comparing to meat from supermarkets. Always helpful and very friendly staff. Products worth every penny.

An excellent butcher with an excellent delicounter and some wonderful wines and goodies for the larder. We eat a lot less meat these days. But when we eat meat its a treat. And then it really pays to pay a little extra for good, organically sourced meat. These butchers know their suppliers, give advice, and have a wonderful selection. Highly recommeded

I Have been looking for a butcher that could cut the meat like my butcher did in Uruguay. Really happy I found this butcher! Top quality! Thanks Patrick!

Very good quality meat. I always buy here dry aged steaks and pancetta among other things. The service is exceptional and the staff is very respectful of covid rules.

Really good butcher! The shop is not as large as the one they have in Hampstead but it has some great produce. It's never too crowned and they are very attentive with the covid measures.
