This place is fantastic! They keep an excellent selection of meats in stock -- as far as I know, there's no other place in town to get good fowl and game meats regularly; Cornish hens, pheasants, and bison are routinely available, but I forgot to check how often they keep rabbit and duck around. If you need really special meats (the clerk listed crocodile or ostrich as examples!) or just want to ensure something is in stock, call them ahead of time. I haven't gone there for cheese yet, but they seem to have a good variety of it.
On top of a friendly staff and a great meat selection, they carry a nice range of sauces and such, plus the store is bright and clean. Highly recommended! -

Slater's is my local butcher and I've used them for many of my special occasions. They made my turducken for Thanksgiving and it was great! They are heavier on beef, chicken and lamb than on pork, which I suppose makes sense being that pork is pretty inexpensive and it's probably hard to compete with the large grocery stores. They also make their own sausage and have a selection of frozen meat such as ground bison and duck breast.
They also have a nice selection Mario's Gelati gelato desserts (I buy more of this than I do meat!), some interesting sauces and spice rubs, and local Fernwood Coffee beans. -

Great: High quality selection of pork, beef, chicken and other types of meats. Friendly service and the pricing is reasonable for the type of product they are selling (it's more than a Safeway/Save-on).
Good: The selection is high quality but not particularly diverse since they're not a large shop. I didn't see pork belly and they were all out of flank/skirt steak when I went.
Downers: Closing is at 5pm which means I can't get to it during the week.
