Hussey Butchers

Great service and price, had 3kg of oxtail delivered with other bits and all were good including the bacon which was stunning

Got some excellent garlic here, much ore substantial than the nonsense garlic sold at sainsburys

Incredible service from genuinely kind people. They definitely know what they're talking about and always offer helpful advice. A gem of this neighbourhood. Please support them!

Defrauded my girlfriend. I asked for three 1-inch thick sirloin steaks, which my girlfriend went to pick up, and sadly trusted them enough to not check the pack. They charged her £17 and when I opened them, I found 3 thin cut old steaks, with even some extra bits of fat thrown in separately to bulk up the weight (see photos). 579g so they charged her £29.30 per kilo for old steak! Avoid.

Great traditional butcher. Decent meat at a fair price. On my last visit I bought a turkey for a Thanksgiving dinner. Ordered on the phone on Tuesday and collected on Thursday. The bit I liked the most was that they were happy to talk about how best to cook it and even threw in a thermometer to make sure it was cooked perfectly.

I highly recommend the chicken breast stuffed with goats cheese I purchased from the window today, which is always well stocked and looks amazing. I’ve not seen it before and thought I’d give it a go. The unsolicited cooking instructions given by staff were flawless, fool proof and gratefully received as the end result was a tasty, beautifully seasoned, tender, juicy piece of chicken cooked to perfection. Throughly enjoy every mouthful.

Friendly staff and excellent service! Would highly recommend them. I ordered a beautiful Christmas tree from them last year, so I bought one again this year. As I live nearby, they delivered it to my house for free. However, this time the tree ended up being bigger than expected. They picked it up for me again and returned it to their shop. Amazing service!!

Have always had exceptional service and procuce here. I find the previous recent one star review very hard to believe indeed. Anyway I ordered 2 cannons of lamb and picked them up yesterday. Absolutely stunning pieces of meat beautifully prepared and presented. Going to have them tonight and I can't wait. Keep up the great work and remember haters will always hate.

A friend and I celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving last week with turkey and vegetables from Hussey Butchers. A truly delicious meal with everything already prepared so it was simply a case of putting in the oven or saucepans. Meat was succulent and vegetables were scrumptious. Can certainly recommend.

I love this place. I hope to see my dear friend Wayne (slow-food aficionado, butcher, trained and certified chef) again soon. While we have some truly spectacular butcher shops here in the Bay Area, I must say that the charm and authenticity of Hussey's is on a completely different plane. I mean, you do have to actually board a plane if you want to go there, but it's really a destination level butcher. Their sister store, just down the lane a bit, Hussey's Grocery doesn't have a review written yet - but I'll get to it. I was enthralled from the very first - there's a truly Locals Only Pub that serves Sunday Roast with all the Fixin's - one of Wayne's brothers works the bar there and rotates in to Husseys as well. There's a third brother - I don't believe I had the pleasure of making his acquaintance; most of my interaction was with Wayne. First day in - he humored me: let me take video on an actual camera of him breaking down a beautiful cut of meat for my requested Steak Tartare. His knife techniques are surgically precise and beautiful to behold! I also picked up three house made sausages: pheasant and plum, I believe - or perhaps it was pork and plum. Delicious - perfection. They practice whole animal butchery, and will graciously pause to fill a last-minute order/request or head back to the walk-ins from a primal cut. The butcher block is stunning - Wayne says they never stay 'round much because they're sanded down daily as part of their food safety practice of course, and people just queue up to purchase them. When you do pop by Hussey's, you will note that their eggs are pastured and they do not refrigerate them. You can also carry parcels from the Grocery to the Butcher shop and vice versa on the honor system, and they'll ring you up at either spot. I miss it so much!

An old-style neighbourhood butcher smack in the middle of Wapping. They have good free-range pork available from Plantation Pigs, and you can always find good free-range chicken here as well. The butchers (three of them!) are knowledgeable, as you'd expect them to be, and willing to help you by cutting, trimming, etc. to your request. Two of them are quite friendly, the third's a bit grumpy, but he's harmless. One slight nitpick: they put the meat away as early as they possibly can, so if you arrive within 45 minutes of closing time, you feel that you're inconveniencing them, as they have to go to the walk-in refrigerator to get your meat. But they always insist it's not a problem, and I think it's just a London practice (so they can close up as soon as possible and get home!)

We asked the butcher to slice a couple of Spanish hams for our wedding. He assured us he would do it for us and gave us a quote. He kept the hams for almost a week before ringing us and saying he could not do it any more, leaving us 3 days to find someone else to do it for us. He really let us down.
