Experienced Butchers and Gourmet Meat – A Cut Above!
If meat is the cornerstone of your meals, we’ve got you covered!
We have a team of fully qualified butchers looking after you every day.
That means you won’t find meat stacked high and overloaded in our meat case!
We cut our cabinet to demand, ensuring you always receive the freshest available meat products, put out “just in time”.
You will find a full range of organic, gourmet, free-range, corn-fed, aged beef and wild game, as well as your traditional favourites.
Wash Creek Lamb & Beef
Wash Creek organic lamb and beef come from free-roaming animals on the Hurunui hills. They eat organically grown forage and are treated humanely at all times, which gives this meat outstanding flavour, colour, and texture.
Bostock’s Organic Free Range Chicken
These chooks live longer, happier lives than any conventional free-range chicken. They grow naturally on a Hawkes Bay orchard, so the meat is better formed, higher quality, and superior tasting. They thrive on a wholesome diet of certified organic, lush, green grass, our juicy organic apples, and home-grown feed, including corn and barley.
Local Sausages & Barbecue Burgers
We’re not selling the sizzle; we’re selling the sausages… Including gourmet sausages made by our friendly butcher “Heck”, (he’s German, so he knows a thing or two about sausages…) Add to that free range hams and bacon SPCA approved from “Harmony Foods”, pure Angus beef burgers and rissoles made daily in store, and you’ve got a meat fest that Fred Flintstone would be proud of.
Our experienced butchers at Fresh Choice Nelson City produce the finest quality cuts of lamb, beef and pork to ensure you get the best value for your money.
When the boat comes in…
We bring you fresh fish from Monday to Friday directly from the local Talley’s fishing boats, arriving in the store around midday.
The quality of our fresh fish is guaranteed, as it has been landed and processed that morning in Motueka less than 1 hour away from our store.
Our white fish range includes Gurnard, Cod, Tarakihi, Hoki, Bluenose, Warehou, Monk, Flounder, and Moki, but keep an eye out for other choices as quota and seasons allow.
Fresh farmed Salmon is a firm favourite, delivered to the store most days. The health benefits of this blushing pink beauty are hard to beat. It’s available in fillets, diced, sliced, kebabs, nibbles and whole fish – there’s a Salmon cut for every occasion.
On Thursday, our game fish, including mahi-mahi, yellow-fin tuna, blue-fin tuna, and swordfish, are delivered from Fiji via a local fish company.
Our Policy on seafood is to provide you with everyday low prices on quality fresh fish so you are guaranteed value for money.
