Neil Menzies Butchers in Aberdeenshire

Saw through the window that they did pies. We wanted something "simple" with venison. They had a large Venison and cranberry pie ( and some beef burgers for one of us who wouldn't try the venison). Friendly service - offered tips on cooking the pie. The pie itself was just absolutely gorgeous - loads of venison and so so tender. Try it. Beef burgers were great as well.

Supplied wild venison 'off the hill' by post (casserole shoulder, diced and loin roast) with minimum delay. Excellent meat and prompt service

Best butchers ever ! fantastic food we buy everything from here whilst self catering on holiday, top quality meats cheeses pickles bread we always take a load of stuff home with us delicious 😋

We were visiting Braemar and stopped off to buy some BBQ supplies. Neil was very friendly on arrival and the venison burgers and venison and black pudding sausages were absolutely delicious (despite the BBQ skills). We also got a bone for the dog who equally enjoyed it. So nice to see a local butcher on the High Street and wouldn't hesitate to visit again if we are in the area.

Thanks to a local friend, I sourced 'wild venison off the hill' for a second festive year. The quality of the meat was excellent and Neil Menzies and his team were so helpful in advising the correct , very lean cut. All communication was prompt via 'Messenger'. Payment was straightforward by bank transfer. My vacuum sealed pack arrived within 48 hours (postal service delayed this year!) securely packaged complete with cool packs. Many thanks.

We just love how we were greeted, the help we received such a nice place and great people can’t wait to return next year for some haggis and meat pies

We stopped in Braemar, Scotland to stretch our legs, do a little sightseeing and find lunch. After all the sit-down meals my traveling partner and I had on this tour, we wanted something easy and hand held. We stopped in Neil Menzies Butchers and there was a whole selection of meat pies at a very reasonable price. The butcher even took the time to heat them for us. They were filling, warm and delicious. Definitely worth a stop if you are tired of restaurant food and want a taste of the local fare.
