Unable to write a review, due to courier....DPD were unable to deliver in timescales even though they had been asked. We had to go away before it arrived and on arriving back this morning and the parcel was under the log shed as requested. Not a pleasant experience. However Dawn has arranged for another delivery this coming Monday/Tuesday so will be able to review as everything in past been exceptional.

Been buying from Swaledale for nearly a year now. The quality of the meat and bones are really good - good colour, smells good and tastes great. We can really tell the difference compared to even the best supermarket quality range of meats. Delivery is spot on, well packaged and just a reliable company to deal with. Our main meats are the chicken joints, bones from chicken and pork, but we've also tried the ham hock and beef joints. All superb. Only minor issue experienced once so far was the recent order, where we tried 2 whole chickens for the first time and that seemed to smell faintly. Hoping it's a one off!

Always had a good experience with both delivery and quality of the meat. It would have been 5* but the prepared chicken drumsticks we ordered were a little lacking in any flavour.

Hi Martin, Thanks for getting in touch. You purchased our buttermilk brined chicken drumsticks - the flour is for dredging them prior to frying - link here to the product page with full cooking instructions https://swaledale.co.uk/products/buttermilk-brined-chicken-drumsticks I hope this helps. Thanks again and best regards, Jorge

I am normally very happy with the meat from Swaledale.

The service is fantastic, arrived on time etc. The meat itself is absolutely delicious, really tasty, high quality beef. However, a 1.4kg rolled sirloin is not enough for 6-8 people!! We were 6 people (adults) on Sunday and there was enough for 2 very small portions and 4 normal portions. There is no way this would have fed 8!! I should have done my research and ordered a bigger size, but I don't think you can say this feeds 6-8 people! All the recipes I have looked at say 2kg for 6-8 people. I will definately order again but I do think your guidelines on numbers should be revised. Thank you!!

You know what, I very, very rarely write any reviews but this popped up and reminded me. This pork was absolutely brilliant. I had about 15 people over and everyone was so complimentary. Really banging.

Great service and good quality (if quite fatty) meat.

The box was in original good condition, and the meat quality was good. However, one package's packaging bag failed to be properly vacuum-sealed, and it was filled with air inside. I'm worried about whether the meat may have been contaminated or spoiled. However, I still hope this was just a one-time misfortune.

Ordered on a Monday and venting and the meat was delivered by Wednesday morning. However , delivered to another house in my street and my friend nd hasn’t received the £10 introduction for my referral. The beef short ribs were beautiful. Just little hiccups for a first order

The best online Butchers in the country, and I've tried plenty; no other comes close to the quality and flavour that Swaledale provide every time, wthout exception, across the range of products.

Satisfied with quality of the ox cheek, however disappointed with the description there is no way it would feed 6-8 hungry people it was barely enough 4 people.

Excellent packaging I have only given 4 stars (at the moment) as I have only used the mutton and sausages, both were excellent. The one downside was the delivery driver put the package on my doorstep, knocked the door and left without waiting for me to answer, when I called to thank him he said he was in a hurry.
