Palmer's Of Tavistock - West Devon

When on holiday here why not buy local produce that has taste? Always our first stop on holiday to fill the larder.

Fantastic pasties, full of chunks of steak with plenty of vegetables. Their giant steak is the best. I buy them frozen to take up north to Lancashire, because they only know how to make pies up north, not pasties. I even give, very grudgingly, two pasties to our local butcher who also thinks they are fantastic, but can’t make them like Palmers! Also fabulous sausage rolls.

Duncan and his team are both professional and friendly. We use their produce for our pub and the meat is of the highest quality and local. Daily deliveries ensures we get the freshest of produce. Would highly recommend their home cooked scotch eggs and pork pies which we sell as bar snacks and they don’t last long!

When in Tavistock its a must for me to visit palmers, the staff are very helpful and friendly and always do there best to help when choosing something different. I have been trying their sausages and can recommend the crackle black pepper, nor over peppery but enough to enhance the flavour of a great butchers sausage. It's around £3.60 to £3.80 for 6 large sausages that are superb. As with all butchers they do all the usual meats and cuts but they carry many other tasty delights such as locally produced mustard and chutney .

Excellent selection of great quality meat! Whilst obviously more expensive than supermarket meat, the quality is exceptional and all local!
