I came here and bought a chicken for dinner and when I got home and started to prepare it it had an awful oder even after washing it serval times. It was definitely bad. They had hardly any meat in the store which should have been a red flag. We also got pickles here and they tasted like chemicals. Definitely don’t go here the meat is not fresh.

Full disclosure, I drafted this review 3 years ago and forgot to post, but I felt it was important to share. This was the 2nd time we have bought from Shields, and it will be the last. My husband went in to buy a pork butt to smoke. He, admittedly, doesn't know how to select the best cuts of meat, so he wanted to go to a proper butcher to ensure he got a good cut. He came home with the meat in a paper bag and immediately put it in the refrigerator. I came into the kitchen shortly after and the whole room smelled like something rotten. We couldn't pinpoint where the smell was coming from immediately, but when I opened the refrigerator it almost knocked me over. We opened the paper bag (the same day of the purchase) and the meat was GREEN and had a smell of death. It took me days to get that smell out of my nose. My husband immediately took the meat back to Shields and the owner told him he knew the meat was close to being bad, but he didn't think it was "that far". No apology, no offer to refund the money. He was nasty to my husband and made some kind of comment like he might choose not to sell to him again since he returned a cut of meat. Never again!

As of a couple weeks ago, the shop is a mess. Boxes, picture frames, old forms and office supplies piled against the south wall. Stock appeared depleted.

An Atlanta icon. It like the Krispy Kreme of meats! The Coca-Cola of variety! A proper butcher shop that laughs in the face of the grocery store bought meats. Beef and pork, yea ok they have that and in cuts you cannot imagine. But since you're a carnivore... try the Elk or Wild Hog or Rabbit!
