Meat Shops near Newark, DE

“We’ve been coming to Herman’s for 35 years and feel endlessly fortunate to have had access to such high quality meats for our family all these years. It’s more than a store. It’s an institution, and a part of the community. With so many absentee landlords and generic, big box shopping experiences, it’s great to still have such a unique and personal option, where the quality is assured by the owner and staff. Once you purchase their excellent meats, local, grass-fed, antibiotic-free and hormone-free meats and poultry here, it will be difficult to go back to any other store. Thank you for being here, Herman’s!”

“Excellent produce selection and prices. They have a nice variety of foods from India, Turkey, Mexico, China and more. My only complaint is that it could be better organized and you do need to check expiration dates. Overall, I think it's a great market with some odds/ ends items like small home and kitchen items. I left off one star for organization and cleaning..”

“10 stars. Excellent place for beef and everything else. They cut me some beautiful porterhouses and new York strips. Super helpful and very pleasant people working there. This will now be my go-to for butcher shop for steaks when I run out of the local 1/4s or 1/2 cows I usually buy.”

“I see the bad reviews but my experience has been pretty good so far! Freeze the meats as soon as you get home. I've had the Delmonico steak, lemon pepper chicken, and burger patties so far and the quality beats the premade store stuff all the way.Now for my feedback on the sales techniques - I'm not sure the best practice is to approach people alone in a parking lot haha. I'm quite a strange individual so I decided to give the salesman (Minolo I think his name was) the time of day and check out his meats (in the back of a white van nonetheless). Social media marketing is probably a better way to go.Have not gotten sick from anything or experienced weird tastes. Should that change I will adjust my rating, but so far it's looking like I'm going to be set for the year on frozen meats! The Black Friday sale I got approached with was more than welcome and the bundle I was sold (easily 60-70 lbs of various products) is going to save me serious money I'd otherwise spend on overpriced ribeyes at the store! I'm primarily a carnivore so the ridiculous amount of meat is perfect for me - your experience may vary!”

“This was my first time trying this spot out and it was an amazing experience. The owner Bill has some of the best customer service I have ever had. I wasn’t sure what I wanted but he was so patient and explained everything. The prices are great and the size of the sandwich’s are phenomenal. I will definitely be back to this hidden gem. Thank you Bill and the team. -Sara-”
