The pre COVID plans for The Butchery Kitchen looked very different.

We were scouting for premises across West Central Scotland to open our first Butchery Cafe & Restaurant, combining our love and expertise of great food & customer service having been in the food industry for over 35 years across our two families.

Restaurant First, Online Butchery & Delicatessen ‘sometime in the future’ was our focus, then the COVID outbreak turned these plans on their head very quickly and instead of fitting out restaurant premises, we spent the first few weeks of lockdown supplying concerned families & their friends across the region through our existing social networks and supply chain relationships.

We’ve learned that all good business plans always need a degree of flexibility and adaptability if they are to succeed, so we put it to the Butchery Kitchen team.

“Online is Mighty Fine” our Master Butcher told us as he immediately began to work with our small number of independent farmers & suppliers, so with that we set to work to bring the business online & ensure the best possible, highest quality delivery of our products safely to our customers, ensuring that we could maintain the quality, expertise and high standards of service we believed we needed to make our ‘From Farm to Fork’ model work.

Welcome to The Butchery Kitchen.
