Mum of 3 under 5 and this box has been an absolute life saver. Excellent quality meat and the convenience of it landing on my doorstep once a month can’t be beaten. Highly recommend! Also feels great to support local farmers. Show reply

Beautiful meats and fish. We have been nothing than delighted with our purchases since we started getting our monthly deliveries. Just cooked a beautiful Thai inspired Barramundi yellow curry with vine ripened cherry tomatoes and lime leaves. Delicious! photo attached Show reply
Butcher crowd has been a game changer for me. I was a vegan for seven years. Once I decided to introduce animal products back into my diet I was looking for exceptional quality, animal ethics, to support farmers, grass fed, wild caught. Butcher Crowd ticks all of those boxes. And as a nutritionist/ dietitian I’m very qualified to comment on the… Read more · 1
quality of produce. The customer service is incredibly helpful, response time to my questions and queries is second to none. As a busy professional who runs multiple businesses, the delivery of top quality produce is extremely appreciated.
I purchased the salmon and diced beef and I must say it was so fresh and amazing. I would strongly support butcher crowd if you want chemical free salmon and meat. Just remember supermarkets put chemicals in there fish and meat. Time for change time to support our farmer's. Would also like to thank butcher crowd for my free 4 salmon also. Show 3 replies

Just received my second order from Butcher Crowd. Just love the efficiency of this subscription no having to remember when its due an email from them does that and the meat is great quality and comes packed perfectly. You get a text with photo once your delivery arrives. The bees knees is this is an Australian business with Australian products which is what I look for, highly recommend Butcher Crowd! Show reply

Follow-up · I'm still happy with the quality of the meat to this day. The items are easy to change and order, it gets delivered cold and good condition. The meat is good quality and tastes great!
Great quality – You can taste the difference in quality of meats from Butcher Crowd. Although I'm highly sensitive to histamine, I cannot eat the beef. I had a slight issue and they were very responsive with my needs. Overall the meat quality is fantastic, its fresh, and tastes amazing. Show reply
Follow-up · I still get a fortnightly box, quality has not faded!! So glad to know my chicken is unbleached and seafood is so fresh , I'd never thought possible.

Follow-up · Haven’t tried the chicken or the pork. Delivery is good, you are notified when it is nearing delivery, then once it is delivered. I have scheduled delivery for when I am home.

We love our Butcher box. The meat and fish is of outstanding quality. The process of ordering and changing if required is simple. Great communication too. Very professional. Show reply
ButcherCrowd delivers top quality meat to us every month. There is a good variety of all meats, chicken and seafood in the box that I get, and if I want to swap the packs around, I simply go on line and make the changes. If I don't need a box for a month, it's easy to skip that month. Deliveries are always well packed, delivered on time and give a… Read more · 1
heads up of when it will be there. Prices haven't changed much either in the few years I have been receiving ButcherCrowd. It is a really great service.
Finding Butcher’s Crowd was a game changer for us. All of the meat, fish and meals are of extremely high quality. No farmed anything! The ordering and delivery process is simple and clearly communicated. Importantly it supports farmers. I can highly recommend Buther’s Crowd because it ticks all the boxes. Show reply
Negative reviews
I'm enthused about what this mob are doing, so tried an order [of fish products only]. All of the cuts - local tuna and snapper, plus imported sockeye salmon - were very high quality and a good size (goldilocks). Cooked well and tasted great. Very impressed. Packaging is an issue though. All individually wrapped in plastic, with plastic gel… Read more
icebags and plastic insulation. Their website (and response email) talks about "reusing" but after one box, no-one needs anymore bubble wrap or icepacks, and no-one is actually recycling soft plastics. So the reality is, only the cardboard box is recyclable. If they took back their packaging I'd give them 5 stars and stand on a busy street corner with a flashing light on my head and a sandwich board spruiking them.
Never had a problem with quality of produce but don't like how you are limited to ordering by box sizes. Depending on the items you place in your box you could be paying a lot more than if you were to pay individually for items. Didn't add up for me. Have switched to Our Cow and it is much better value overall with amazing customer service.

Marketing, customer service and delivery are outstanding however the products I’ve tried are disappointing. The Scotch fillet was tough, stringy and tasteless; my dog got lots of it. The Thai Fish cakes were tasteless and gummy. The burgers were also gummy. The cubed lamb leg made a very disappointing lamb Rogan Josh. I was not impressed with the… Read more
tuna either. The bacon is so thin it’s like tissue paper. I get better meat at the local butcher for less. I do not recommend this service.

This service never fails to impress me! I have been a user and huge fan of butcher crowds meat and delivery service for a number of years now. Early this morning I awoke to discover that my subscription had been stolen from just outside my apartment complex. I was devastated as this would have been used to feed my family and I for the next couple… Read more · 1

Luckily, not only do they have great meat, they also have truly kind and considerate people working in the customer service team. Alice was so kind as to shepard my distressed call, and she assured me that she would ask the relevent people if a replacement box could be sourced.
She got back to me very promptly and let me know that butcher crowd values their return customers and their satisfaction of the product and sevice, and that a replacement box would graciously be extended to me.
Beyond grateful for the team. THANK YOU! Even though they did not have to do that, Butcher Crowd clearly values their loyal customer base, and is empathetic toward these unfortunate circumstances.
I just hope that wherever and whoever the original box ended up with has the same amount of gratitude for the delicious meat they have been provided as I do in recieveing a courtesy box.

Have ordered from Butcher Crowd for 2 years. Very happy with the quality and price, compared to other similar services. Just received my latest box and they continue to add new items. I wanted to try out the ox cheek as a slow cooker dish..can't wait to try. The Barramundi and Salmon are my favourite. You can tell the difference in colour of the… Read more · 1
salmon compared to farm raised salmon, I'll never go back. And the salmon patties x2 are 100% meat with no additives and I add my own ingredients (gf breadcrumbs, ginger, garlic, eggs and shallots) and get 4 patties out of the 2 - very tasty! Also, it's important to me to support producers that use sustainable, no chemicals or hormones in their practices. For instance, last year, the Barramundi were not available due to a supply-demand issue, and that's ok. The fish are wild caught, so if there aren't any available, taking care not to overfish stocks, consumers must take that into consideration. Thank you to the farmers and fisherman who go the extra mile and not take short cuts, to provide healthy ingredients for our health. Cheers.
