I purchased Ostrich burgers from here and was pleased with the service and, though I didn’t enjoy the Ostrich, was impressed by its quality and freshness.

Fossil Farms catered our wedding this month and did a phenomenal job! Our wedding was held outside at a private residence on Lake Hopatcong and ensuring the offsite catering (both the food and service) ran smoothly was critical for this plated, sit down event of 130 people. Ben and Liz worked with us through all the details leading up to the event and did an awesome job the day of. Our guests loved the creative passed hors d'oeuvres (Gazpacho Shooter, Bison Steak Tartare etc.) during cocktail hour. Big thanks to Ben, Liz and the entire Fossil Farms team for helping to make our day special and memorable.

Great source of exotic, upscale, and some locally sourced meat. Bought a few times and would recommend. It's a bit pricey but what other shop in the county or state can command such a selection and variety? They also have fresh truffles in season. Customer service is good.

Their meat definitely tastes cleaner and fresher than all of grocery store meats that we purchased from. Since their animals come from farms that take care of them (better than most humans) they are on the pricier side. $15 for a pound of ground beef for example but trust me, its worth it!! Especially unfrozen if the option is available. We never bought delivery and always drove to the store. Duck, venison, chicken breast, bison, beef, steak and drum sticks were all great quality in our experience. Also purchased venison dog treats and dog food that we served to my sisters dog raw. It contained vegetables like carrot and peas that he finished in minutes... chow down. Again, it's pricey but reasonably so bc the meat is fed great, and are cared for than most places you buy meat from. I highly recommend if you want to really want to impress your guests for Thanksgiving dinner. Please take the drive though, I haven't seen good reviews for delivery since packages have been damaged. The butchers really know their meats and cuts, ask them any questions and I'm sure they'll know :) they've been really helpful in my experience. Military discount is accepted.

Not what you're told. Hardly any fresh steaks in the counter. Actually there was only 2. They both looked like they were sitting there for two or three days. Everything is deep frozen. No fresh chicken, veal, lamb or pork to buy here. Truffle hamburgers were disgusting. Threw them out after two bites. Herb/garlic butter was also disgusting. Tasted bad. Ruined 2 steaks ( that I bought elsewhere). Forget this self aggrandizing freak show. It's a waste of time and gas to get there! And a waste of money to buy anything in the place! Skip it! Nothing here.

Ordered catering from here and while certainly very expensive, the food was very good. My personal favorites were the jalapeno cornbread, alligator bites, and tenderloin. They do offer private chef and events as well but it seemed to be at a bad time since I was told a few staff members quit and so they discouraged us from that option. Just make sure you decide what you want ahead of time since they aren't exactly great at customizing menus or options for you.

We were fortunate to have 3 NY strip steaks gifted to us by a cousin for a special occasion as a surprise. We live in CT, and only eat organic free from hormones meats. The order arrived very well packed in ice that didn’t melt for another week after we received the shipment.Because I am a very picky steak eater, (and my cousin knows this), I was not expecting too much. Plus my husband can not chew tough meat. Much to our surprise it was absolutely delicious, tasty and tender. The best we’ve ever had. The steaks are worth every penny and we will be ordering more in the future. We highly recommend their products for your good healthy meals.Thank you Fossil Farms - keep up the great work!

I only discovered this little gem a few months ago. Incredible quality meat available locally. I've used delivery services such as Butcher Box and have actually slowed down those orders in favor of Fossil Farms. Great selection and helpful staff.

This place has helped us cope with the loss of dining experiences due to COVID. The staff is always so helpful and patient, and I appreciate the variety and cooking tips I find when I visit! Thanks to Fossil Farms, we have been able to elevate our recipes with bison, alligator, elk, and high quality local chicken/pork/beef. We love trying out their rotating cold specialties (like the 5-spice charcuterie or local cheese) and the plat du jour (incredible BBQ chicken). Their thick-cut bacon is the best I've ever had, and their beef Wellington was the highlight of the 2020 holiday season. Thanks for being a bright spot in this era of social distancing!
