For convenience - supermarket meat is all well and good. But for truly good cuts you must venture to the specialist – the butcher.

Burly men with muscled forearms and stripy aprons...


Butchers were once iconic cornerstones of the community. But in recent times, they appeared to be a dying breed, their craft replaced by drab meats stuffed in styrofoam.

Our modern lifestyles mean we live in an era of double-booked schedules, fast food and sound bites. But deep down we’re not wired for the rapid pace we live; we all yearn for quality and memorable experiences.

So if you prefer proper meat worth paying for, here are some of Cape Town’s best butcheries.
