Reviews of Butcher Block (Butcher Shop)

xiao hello

Whether you are here for raw, seasoned cuts of beef or the Irish groceries, Butcher Block has high quality service and just the right amount of selection. Hate a massive menu? Well, the pre-made food menu changes daily. From beef stew to fish and chips, you can't go wrong here and you can actually leave without giving them more than $10 (imagine that!). On a more serious note, I have had lots of success with the uncooked meat here, especially thanks to the guidance of the knowledgeable staff. I will continue coming back here for as long as I possibly can.

Right at the top of the list of things I miss about Sunnyside. Excellent deli with prices cheaper than cooking. Wonderful European candy selection. Kind service. If you live in Sunnyside you should be shopping here.

Mötley Gio

It has anything you need it's a convient street kinda like Costco

Steve Dimarco

Disappointed once again. Roast beef on a roll with lettuce and tomatoes. Forgot the cheese. $9.00. Roast beef was as tough as my shoe. Never again. Lost a customer.

Antonio Torres

Great food.

Belinda goodbody

By far the best filet, including high-end steakhouses, I've ever eaten! Extremely impressed with the freshness of bacon wrapped asparagus as well. Exceptional customer service, quality of food & prices!

charlie erven

Amazing place, brilliant selection of Irish & English food, amazing raw meat & fish, and incredible sandwiches [we've just had the coffee brisket and crab cake on heroes] big portions and very tasty!!!! Planning the next visit already. Well worth the trip from Manhattan.

Kelly House

I have sourced provisions and comestibles from this fine establishment for half a decade without a complaint

John MacCarthy

Great food, always.

Charles Frazer

Simply the best store of its type in Queens

Alberto Hernandez

Talk about a rare gem. Not many butchers left here in New York. Huge Irish and British selection available for those missing home. Hot food offered daily bangers and mash, shepherds pie. You won't be disappointed, great sandwiches.

Best meat in town! This place will let you give them an order that your can pick up later, and has given a better price when the order is large. They also offer bones for the dogs free. The hot dogs are the best I've ever had. I wouldn't buy anywhere else now.

A staple in any Sunnyside resident's diet, Butcher Block has the best ready to go meals in the neighborhood. You will never be disappointed with their Shepard's pie.

Kris Walker

Good stuff especially if you are from ireland!

Carolyn De Melo

I'm not really sure why this place has excellent reviews. They have some variety of meat cuts, but I didn't find them to be very fresh. The prepared meat I got was also very disappointing. The interior is very dark and crowded with items.

Philp O' Reilly

Excellent

Damont Batchelor

Awesome spot. Had an awesome steak sandwixh there

Melissa Mcewen

This is an awesome little grocery store that caters to the local Irish population. Tons of my favorite Kerrygold butters and cheese, which are from grass-fed cattle in Ireland! Best known for British candy, crisps, and soda bread.

steve jones

Awesome place to get the best meats!

Jean

It's a lovely grocery store with an impressive selection of Irish, English, & American products.

Michael K

Had breakfast there today and it was nice. The bagles were great!

If you need a bit of UK food staple, they have it here. Some hard to find items, some not too hard to find items also...

Patrick Lally

Nice stuff overall.but I Wish they would have Horse salami and blood pudding too. And offer more Organic fare. I would buy even more stuff there.

Pat Sullins

Great meat and very friendly and helpful people

Karla Brunell

Home doesn't feel so far away when we can jump on the 7 train and get here in no time. Breckfast baps went down a treat after Kids footie this morning.

All things Irish! I get their small cocktail sausages as a houseguest gift. Gradually each trip I buy another item for myself today it was English crumpets. FWIW I'm not Irish.

Frank Rukaj

Great food and service

MARK GREEN

Great place for a taste of back home whether your from England or Ireland.

michael donohue

They do their butchering on premises. I've never gotten a bad cut there. Their fresh shepherd's pie makes a great dinner. I also but their Irish Breakfast package. It's enough food for four people. I highly recommend the butcher block.

Matthew Daalling

Looking from the outside this place looks like a normal deli and bodega. But their sandwiches are amazing. They do homemade roast beef sandwiches that are incredible. Juicy, tender, and flavorful. I'll be back.

Antoine Clark

There Quality of meat is excellent the butcher was very polite and patient....

Una Butler

Really good, fairly plain food. Great prices. Portions so large each dinner is plenty for two. The chicken pot pie is to die for.

Eric Cellucci

Brooke Bair

I love the Butcher Block! I won't get my meat anywhere else. The people there are awesome and always willing to explain and answer any questions I have. They've even carried my order out to my truck for me. Just amazing people and crazy good food.

Jayne Reid

Excellent place to shop for meats

The meat tastes amazing, the prices are equal to, or less than, large chain grocery stores, and the staff is incredibly helpful and polite.

Abigaile George

Fantastic service, great meat and selection, good prices

T McGee

The service and the product are both top notch. Friendly, educated staff. Quick, precise service. THIS is where you should go to get your fresh beef in Laramie!

Candace Warner

Best meat in Laramie.

Bob Matson

Great meat selection very personal customer service.

Frank Hedley

Outstanding as always!!

Austin Heller

The quality of meat offered here is so far above and beyond what you find at the grocery stores it is worth what you pay. You can go in and buy a single steak or order an entire pig. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable; feel free to ask them for recommendations based on your needs. I've cooked for 30+ based on their information and help.

Judy Sunderman

Professional good people. Excellent quality meat and the best bison and lamb I’ve tasted. You can’t go wrong with anything you buy here.

David Wallace

Very good steak! Very friendly folks.

Chris Albanese

From the outside this place looks like a normal deli and bodega. But their sandwiches are amazing. They do homemade roast beef sandwiches that are incredible. Juicy, tender, and flavorful. I'll be back.

Martina Cannata

Nearly always of of orange club bars meat is great and hot food always good staff very friendly

Andy Smyth

It does NOT open at 6:30am on Sunday... I had a bunch of very disappointed guys who were looking forward to a Full Irish before watching the Ireland in the Quarter Finals of the Rugby World Cup Rugby.

Rockenbar_1798 is playing around

Really great food im going to be a repeat for sure.

Rosiana Then

Love their cooked food and meat department. Reasonable price.

william collazo

Best place in queens for the freshest food!! huge portions! great natural flavors!!! the breakfast is the best in the world hands down. Keeps you full all day!!

Patrick Poyser

Excellent butcher shop and market; but their prepared food really hits the spot. I have dreams about the chicken pot pies. They also carry nearly every flavor of potato chip that's made. The sandwiches are huge -- great to split with someone for lunch.

Ross Peeler

A full breadth of Irish groceries (though if they can get more imported butter, that would be amazing!) and a world class deli. Macaroni and Cheese is bloody delicious, as are the battered fish and don't get me started on those sausage rolls. Absolutely divine.

ej shortell

I have not been here in a while. You have to go to this Irish deli/butcher shop. The stuffed pork chops are out of this world. They are huge. Stuffed with assorted vegetables and cheese. If you can, put them on the bar b que. They are heavenly. The chops are extremely thick and juicy, you will not even be able to eat the delicious potato sides or the mac 'n cheese sides. The chicken and beef burgers are delicious. The portions are very large. I have never eaten the hero sandwiches, but the portion looks large. I would imagine that it would be delicious, as they make a lot of their own meats (ham, sausage). The sausage is delicious, although, I am not fond of blood pudding. They carry a large assortment of Cadbury products,. YUMMY. The prices are reasonable. The staff has always been helpful. Great food.

Terry Flavin

Love love love this place, food, people and variety was just excellent and very reasonable prices for what you get. Best Irish breakfast roll I've had since moving to the US 2 years ago :-) . Was so happy I found it, worth driving through downtown Manhattan for it!

Tyler Schwerdtfeger

The best lunch in town guaranteed! Lots of good meat. Colton will cut your meat just right!!

Robert Burch

Good food

Hernan Echeverry

Fantastic grocery. All the IRISH products from home I could have wished to find in the States. Grande IRISH puddings, sauces, and sweets and even Brennan's bread. Definitely a must see for all IRISH living in NY. Just a bit of good IRISH craic. IRISH. Just to be clear...

Dominique

I got cuts of flank steak and chicken breasts delivered - they were great! Delivery was prompt and they called me when at the door, and even waited briefly for me since I'd stepped out which was really nice. Thanks guys - will order again :)

Frank Fitz

Great Butcher Department along with a nice selection of hot food. Excellent selection of products from Ireland for those looking for quality items to make you feel comfortable.

David McCord

The only place we will purchase meat. One of the nicest group of people to do business with.

Brian Mullins

Great friendly professional service. First rate butcher shop. Great grocery selection of Irish and U.S. items. Long may they prosper.

Richard Sledge

Great food and service,

Pat Lally

Scott Fox

Good people and great cuts of meat

Mariee Pilkington

Small space but the best of Irish food (gammon, rashers, sausages, puddings, Tayto! tins of biscuits, and more to remind one of home). Very efficient service especially the ladies on the checkout.

John Patrick

Love the $9 dinner specials

Patricia Barberi

SERVICE at this establishment is the worst. They almost never get the order right. Whoever picked up the phone obviously cannot differentiate between a lemon and a lime. They send the wrong item all the time. I will never order from this place again as the staff is also unfriendly on the phone while taking the order.

Volker Detering

Reliable local staple. Kind of a dude's place. Hungry? Walk in, select excellent cooked food at the catered counter, bring it home. All kinds of meats and sides. Also groceries your wife asked you to buy. It's also the best candy store in Sunnyside. Large variety UK and German quality imports which you can't get anywhere else. Great catering service for moderate prices on top of it. Just had a 20 people tray delivered for $60. Everybody happy.

Benny Radjasa

Hot food served daily on rotation, lots of Irish and English favorites, the pies and pig in a blanket are delicious.

Gunnar Leon

Great food

Ronald Gardner

It's the only place I'll buy meat.

David Scott

Good food, fast service. ..

Rick Juulian

nice on the block

james martens

First time ever going. Got a 3/4” thick New York strip. Went home and immediately grilled it. Was amazing.

Grace Becca

Amazing family owned business. The product is amazing and is only surpassed by the awesome service.

Austin Knox

Best place around to get steaks. Cut the way you ask. The experience here is much like shoping at the local grocery store ( in my case the A&P ) of the early 1960's. A little bit of everything you need, but necessarily everything you want. A hold over of the neighborhood grocery store. Ask them about the cooked meals/dinners they make for holidays and special occasions. Very plentiful and tasty. Talk to them before hand to find out how much time they need and prices.

DCVoltZZ

Need a local butcher shop this is your place

Mary pat Stalans

I love the Butcher Block. The freshness and quality of the meats can't be beat.

Travis S

This is the Butcher shop I've been to in years. These guys have excellent meat and amazing... Well everything

Alex Koscielniak

Great meat selection, great prices, and even greater people. The only place to buy meat in laramie hands down!

Christy Honaker

Best steaks ever! We dont even go out much anymore to eat cause no one around has better steaks!

Jake Paintin

Best place to get meat in Wyoming. Fresh local beef. If you have a traeger you need to come here. If you like meat of all speciess you need to come here. Fair pricing. Picked up a 3 pound brisket for 20 bucks.

Cheryl Kaup

Friendly

Marisa Mendoza

The service is outstanding, fair prices and good quality products. Never have to question the freshness. I wouldn't purchase meat anywhere else.

Logan Taylor

Good prices!

Mic Co

Great selection of meat.. ask if not seen

Mike Tuffy

Where are you going to get a steak& onion dinner for $10.

Edward Williamson

Good homemade food

Rich

They have a great breakfast and lunch .

Style N Craft Leathers Inc.

Great place for all things English and Irish ..... Be it cookies, jams, bread, marmalades, chocolates or cakes. The deli counter serves great meals that can be packed. Typically English cooking. Baked ham with vegetables that we had was excellent. The people in the store are friendly and courteous.

Pablo Bojorque

best roasted beef I ever have,

Philip Duffy

Anything I have in Dublin I can have here - excellent variety of products and great food.

Nick Ramos

If you're Irish or British, or Irish/British at heart, this place is for you. There are tons of goodies from across the pond. They even have local newspaperson delivered from Ireland to catch up on the news there.

Melissa Mccurrey

Had an amazing experience purchased a chicken there was a small problem made 1 phone call and they fixed it right away no Argent just took great care of us. We will be returning and spreading the good word great food good customer service!

Yoonju Kim

This place lays on the Irish- and English- products on so thick that even a born-and-bred New Yorker feels that fake tug of homesickness for the North Sea Isles. Surprisingly good selection of hot foods and sandwiches and excellent selection of European junk foods.

Mary

The food here is delicious (and deserves 5 stars) but the service leaves a lot to be desired. The people who answer the phone are rude and make you feel like you're bothering them (very few exceptions). When the food arrives late (more than an hour after you've placed your order) they don't care. This has happened several times and no accommodation was ever made though I ordered from this establishment every single day. Today was the very last straw. The order was incorrect and I was incorrectly charged. When I called they told me that they delivered someone else's order, that I should keep it and they would send out the correct order. I thought this was a waste of food so I agreed to keep what was delivered (It was similar to what I ordered, but more than what I ordered) but I wanted the price adjusted to what I ordered. They refused and suddenly told me that it was my fault that the order was wrong - that I didn't know what I wanted. I told them that they've just lost me as a customer. I work in a nearby school. I will be telling everyone I work with. They stand to lose a lot of business over what amounts to approximately $5.00. I stand on principle.

Anne Rafferty

Great food and Irish goods.

Joe Sheehan

Great mix of European, mainly Irish, and American products. Meat and produce fresh. Staff friendly and helpful. Beware the cookie aisle, it's irresistible. Parking is a little difficult but they do offer curbside pickup.

Ali A

Great selection! Shelves a bit crowded but overall a nice neighborhood spot for gourmet style grocery

Joffre Rivera

Good choices of Irish food lots of goods

Mickey Dunne

They have a good selection of meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner that changes everyday, to go along with cold cuts. Good sized portions and the food both hot and cold is well made. Selection of products from Ireland that you can't find at too many other places. The store just expanded and is much larger than it previously was.

Justo Herrera

A lot of choices of good food

David

Great sandwiches!

Angela Protofanousis

Food is great ! Love this place!

Barbara S.

Best food in the neighborhood friendly, clean, you have to try their hot meals the best.

Heamasi Vi

Took my British friend here and he loved it! He said it was the closest to authentic British food he'd had here in the states. Love their fish and chips! Their daily special makes it all the more interesting.

Caitlin King

My home doesn't feel so far away when we can jump on the 7 train and get here in no time. Breackfast baps went down a treat after Kids footie this morning.

Oz Mel

I love their selection of groceries and necessities. Has all my favorite snacks from the UK and excellent quality meats.

David A.C.

Great selection of meats, cheese, and snacks. The price is good for the quality of the products. The beef jerky is fantastic.

Heaven's Gate

I recently moved near this wonderful establishment. It has great gourmet market fare that has delicious ready to heat and/or eat meals. The quality and cuts of meat are outstanding. Can't go wrong.

Joseph Acampora Jr.

Best place to get fresh home style food.

Michael Reynolds

Great smash burgers for lunch. Good fresh meat selection as well.

John P

Very helpful, will definitely be back!

amanda kearns

This place isnt gourmet, but it's not meant to be. If you like hot buffets in delis this one isnt bad. They change what their menu on a daily basis, inferring that the stuff doesn't stay out/old. They have foods like whole hams that they shave to chicken cutlets to spare ribs...again it changes. If you want to have a hot meal for a decent take away price, this is a place you may want to try. Also, they have candies and candy bars from Ireland and other areas of Europe.

Dan Harbit

Wow is all I can say! Great food! Had the brisket and bake beans it awesome! Grabbed some bulk pulled pork and sides for later! Come hungry because this is good!

Lawrence Weinzimer

Have been a customer at The Butcher's Block since around 1994 when they first opened. Had many a good conversation with Mr. Roach, the prop. As far as I'm concerned there is no competition throughout the city.This is the place for all your faves from Eire and The UK. Having travelled extensively to each of the two countries, in the past, this venue is better than a best effort at retail ! Whether you've travelled or not makes no difference. Products are all labelled in English, meaning you can easily be turned on to a new line of quality goods you'll bring back home. Let's not forget your groceries, fine meats, deli, snacks, drinks, prepared hot / cold foods, periodicals, and so on. A real delight to uplift yourself and spend time and funds here. From Manhattan, right off the #7 train, to 40 & Lowery or 46 & Bliss. On the North side of Queens Blvd.

Kateri Mullan

No one can beat the authenticity and flavor. Truly a hidden gem. FAVORITE

Ashley Conley

Great place. Was very impressed.

Becky Riley

Awesome service, best steaks in town.

Drive 45 minutes for the steak and it’s worth it

K stalans

Amazing quality food and also friendly faces. This is the ONLY place for a good fresh steak!

A fantastic real full service butcher. Never been disappointed with the steaks, the hamburger, hotdogs, bratwurst...

Burt Hill

Fantastic people and meat.

Catherine Hickey

Great Butcher! The meats are the best you will ever put in your mouth. Prices are very reasonable and Alan and his family are wonderful to deal with! I wouldn't get my meats anyplace else!
