    WTF?!

    How so cheap? You'd need an awful lot of freezer space for all that

    Sell for a cut price and gain new customers through advertisement.

    Chicken fillets will be very small,
    pork chops as thin as rashers and full of tissue like streaky rashers,
    chicken wings are not worth putting in the bag,
    burgers won't have much meat, not even horse,
    peppered steaks will be same as the burgers, steak will be underweight,
    sausages will be the cheapest going and also underweight,
    bag of chips and the bottle of sauce are probably the best value.

    I'm awaiting the day this site gets put in to the curse filter.

    The Google results are extremely inconclusive, particularly the references to it being an entire brand of products.

    Have you bought from them before? They're really good quality and the family that run the business are lovely.

    Not shilling for them or anything because I don't know them personally but unless you've bought from them before you've no idea.

    They won that Best Dublin Butchers vote that 98fm did a few months back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,290 ✭✭✭alwald


    If anybody buys from them one of those deals then please post a picture so we can see and judge then :cool:.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 481 ✭✭nuttyboy79


    I go there a lot, the meat is exactly the same as you get in any other butchers just a cheaper price. They are not cheap deals to get you through the door they're just good deals. AFAIK they only sold the childrens allowance deal Tuesday nothing else. As well as the daily deals they run about 10 other deals you can get all the time. As with others I've no connection to them.

    I doubt very much you're getting quality meat at those prices.

    For all the doubters, why not try it for yourself instead of replying on thread without sampling?! I've had nothing but good experiences myself. Given the queues last Friday, I'd imagine its the sheer quantities of customers helping to keep the prices down.

    Cheap meat is rarely a bargain.

    Pork neck or Beef brisket say hello

    Cheap meat is rarely a bargain.

    Cheap anything is always a bargain,
    The clue is in the name.
    That saying that "buy cheap buy twice" is just that, its a saying not something to run your life by.

    They deliver too, that's me sold

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,258 ✭✭✭MrVestek


    I've ordered this a few times in the past and I'll be honest the meat is pretty good quality.

    Their chicken fillets and peppered steak is absolutely gorgeous and not as fatty as you'd think for the price.

    Worth a punt anyway.
