Great meat. Butchers are very knowledgeable. Don't be in a hurry. Cash only so bring a couple $20's.

Jake Crippin

It's a good place to get authentic German meats. The prices are OK, and the staff is helpful, whether you speak English or German.

Katrina Basiewicz

Dorothea Rodriguez

Nice big parking lot. Small store. Wish they carried rye bread. It's hard to find a seedless rye bread. Husband likes head cheese. He said it's ok not enough garlic like back home. I had the kielbasa the passing is to thick to bite into. And the meat has a pepper taste that overwhelmed the other spices. I will not get again But if husband likes the head cheese I would make the trip to get he some more.

Larry Stimson

One of the few meat markets left. Great staff friendly and knowledgeable. Only place you can get jowl bacon. Love the house sausage use it in Sausage and biscuits. CASH ONLY!

It is the best meat place in town. They will even smoke you a thanksgiving Turkey and I have done this 4 years in a row.....it is the best turkey I have ever had...

Kim Hoefgen

Been going there for many many years. Tounge, brats, jerky sticks are the BEST! They also have great fresh beef. It is so worth the long trip l have to get there.

Mike Griggs

Josef Laposa

Ausgezeichnete Wurst- und Fleischwaren und ich kann deutsch sprechen! Ein kleines Stück Heimat.

Jamine Carroll

I stopped in today for an Easter ham, and left with 2! Also available were many fresh cuts of beef and pork, as well as smoked turkey (the best I have ever tasted!) many Claus-made cold cuts, and a huge variety of both fresh and smoked sausages. The smoked ham hocks are meaty and have a gorgeous deep color. Monica helped me fill a giant cooler, even providing ice for the trip home. I got a huge amount of highest-quality meat for a very reasonable amount of money.

James Gibbons

I am amazed by the prices. Cheaper than Kroger, and SO good.

jamison henry

Thomas Sawyer

We live in Evansville, but whenever we are in Indy we go to Claus. They have the best smoked pork chops I have ever eaten, and the sausage is great. We especially like the breakfast sausage, and their thick sliced bacon.

David Churchill

Terry Dykes

Just had these guys turn 20 lbs of venison into pan sausage and burger and they nailed it! You guys and gals that grind your deer meat need to give Claus a shot! This will be the only place I get venison burgers and sausage from here on out! Great service and very reasonably priced, keep it up Claus!

Big Red

Longtime legendary Indianapolis Butcher and Meat Shop. My Dad would take me to the old location on South street when i was a kid. I remember it had a sort of glass block type of wall or something similar inside. Thankfully they are still around and have kept this place in the family. Best meat you can buy in Indy and the ONLY place to go for anything German. Probably the best sausages in Indy. I recommend the Kielbasa, Knackwurst and the spicy Cajun sausages. They also have hard to find stuff like tongue and head cheese. Prices are reasonable but quality is over the top. Im sure Claus will make a special cut or take a request. Meat lovers paradise here and sausage heaven. Nothing like store bought. Claus is a good guy - he and the staff are all very helpful as well. Try it it you havent already.

Tina Schmitt

Claus' is great. Best place in town for meats.

Doug Brown

Great. Everyone is friendly and the only place in town that had pork shoulder roast. Made my day since that is what is needed in my recipe.

Always excellent service and yummy sausages. They now also have bread from Amelia's, saving a stop if you're busy. Our family favorites include Bockwurst, Bauernschinken, and Cervelat. Plus the large ham hocks and smoked pork chunks for those long-simmered winter meals.

Clay Henry

I wish I could buy a candle that smells like when I walk in the door of this place. Try a few pieces of landjaeger. I think you'll enjoy it.

Gavin Huggins

If you want authentic German sausages and cold cuts, go there, The prices are VERY reasonable and comparable to the deli in a supermarket, but the quality is MUCH better

kevin copenhaver

I guess You can get a decent ethnic sausage in this town

Willie Maekit

Great Fresh and Smoked Meats. It's ALL good at Claus' (Formerly Klemm's). Best hams and salami for sandwiches. Great selection of fresh & smoked sausage, too! Great Bacon! My favorite is the smoked pork kielbasa, and smoked Cajun sausage. No, my favorite is the Canadian Bacon. No...the smoked pork chops. OK...IT'S ALL GOOD!

Johnnie Brown

Real nice people and fresh meat. Great place

Kellen Singer

Is there anything but the "Best" there!? Really!? These folks are the best!

Jim shaw

SK Fritz

My family has been going to Klemm's/Claus' for four generations. The meat is delicious and authentic. However, we have received very rude service for the last several visits, they have stopped being welcoming our children (who used to love going to this store) and the prices have become not at all competitive, especially compared to other meat markets that are on our side of town. We are very disappointed, but haven't been back for nearly a year now and are enjoying our German sausages and meats from other sources (similar small meat markets) at much better prices.

Krista Gremos

Family owned. Great german (and other) sausages! Friendly staff. I love this place.
