“The Best Meats! I live on Long Island, NY and am so glad I found Haltemann’s at the Reading Terminal Market. When I visited my nephew in Philadelphia.My sister and I would buy all our meats to take back home. And by the way it’s was for at least 3-4 months worth. When my nephew moved from Philadelphia, I was so upset but found out I can order online! Yessss! All their meat is high quality, tender and flavorful! I miss the butcher and girls at Reading Terminal Market so a big shout out to them! But I still get the best meat I’ve had in decades online! Also, my family and friends buy from them now too!”
“I ate a meatball hoagie from here in like 2011 that I still think about. I have never before or since found one that slapped that hard - could not believe those out-of-the-warming-pot meatballs and fresh sliced prov could make that magic but it did.Also tried my friend’s sandwich which was the Italian (as advertised, a true classic - hard to find them like that anywhere but the old delis now) but I was so lost in the sauce of the meatballs that it didn’t matter.Also, the guy behind the counter? So helpful, so kind, so clearly proud of the place and the product.”
“Theeee best hoagie I’ve ever had!
Visited this place a year or so ago with my partner’s family and again last week and it was still just as good… so much freshly cut meat, thinly sliced salad, oil, mayo and the bread just tops it off! Can’t get enough, wish they were in the UK!
Also love Mike and Matt, proper funny guys and super friendly, thanks a lot! See you next year ?”
“First time visiting this butcher shop and I was pleased with the quality of meat I received. I purchased the ribeye, it was very delicious. My family enjoyed the meats from here. Their meats are fresh and the customer service was one of the best I ever received from a butcher shop. I will be returning. Thank you.”
“This is such a great place with kind employees. Besides selling pretty much everything you need in your household, they just seem to care about their neighbors. Have stopped by so many times, always made me feel welcome. Being respectful to others doesn't go unnoticed. Thank you.”
“If you're not supporting mom and pop restaurants, you need to go here...buy your meat and cook at home. Staff are always friendly. Meat is always good quality.”
“So happy that I found this place aside from good prices they have excellent customer service! I’m still in shock about the return policy you cannot go wrong by buying here. So important.❤️❤️❤️”
“I absolutely love Klein’s!!! The best neighborhood grocery store you could ever ask for. They have everything you need, and the prices are very reasonable! They also carry a good selection of local baked goods, and the produce is always good. Very grateful for this gem!”
“Was going to another butcher in Vineland but had a bad experience there so decided to try Trim Rite. Well, that was two months ago and we've been going back every other week. The staff is great and the prices are too.They have a nice selection of meat packages and will substitute if you ask them and it's reasonable. This place is old school with a modern flair. I highly recommend buying meat here instead of the supermarket.”
“I am there every Saturday morning for years. The folks are super nice and knowledgeable and the cheese and cures meats ... Ridiculous! It is a must go to when in the Italian market.”
“Bin Going to dad's for 40+ years meet is so much better fresh. Prepared food fantastic they always come up with something new. Don't believe me go check out the best butcher in the city they just had 100 year anniversary”
“This place has the best hoagies around. A lot of meat and great taste. I buy a hoagie from here every weekend for lunch sometimes dinner.When I have visitors over I tell them to try this place.”
“So the other day, I found myself in a totally innocuous conversation, with just some dude I run into every Sunday, and interact for approx 1.5 mins..conversation was about how difficult it is to find turkey legs and thigh bones this time of year (I know, kinda weird conversation to have, don't judge), other than what you get on a whole turkey, which tend to be on the smaller size, turns out to be the owner of Giunta Butcher shop in Reading Terminal Market, and he has these delivered to my house...just like Oprah kinda used to say " you get to have a turkey roulade, everybody gets to have turkey roulade this year"...these things are massive, and the price, what some people look for in reviews, insanely reasonable, couldn't be more happier!!”

Anyway, time to get spoiled again...?”

“First time at this store and my review of the breakfast sausage is a 5 out of 5. I got 2 pounds of the pork and 2 pounds of the beef breakfast sausage. I got home from work and had to try a few. My 12 year old son who is a picky eater loved both versions. I also got 3 pounds of the slab bacon/pork belly. Just from the appearance I am very happy and can’t wait to try it tomorrow for breakfast. I will follow up with that review tomorrow.”
“During sightseeing Reading market, I saw someone ordering like a regular would do. Then my instinct told me that it’s been frequented by locals. I took my chances and got Kielbasa, breakfast sausages, and took this regular guy’s recommendation for provolone Italian sausages. I cooked them home, and they tasted like dream! Next time in Philly, I’ll go back.”

“Di Bruno Bros. has a beautiful exterior and interior space. The selection of produce, specifically the fruit selection was excellent and unique. Grabbed snacks and a coffee while on a walk downtown, wish I could’ve tried more.”
“I hadn't been there in awhile and was pleasantly surprised at how well stocked and clean it was. The staff I encountered were pleasant, professional and helpful. I will go back again soon.”
“Girard Meat Market is hands down one of the best places to buy fresh, high-quality meats! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how clean and well-organized everything was. The selection was fantastic—everything looked incredibly fresh, and you can tell they take pride in offering top-quality products.
What really stood out to me was the amazing customer service. The workers were so welcoming, patient, and willing to help with any questions I had. They took their time to assist me, ensuring I got exactly what I needed without feeling rushed.
If you’re looking for a place with fresh meats, great prices, and outstanding service, I highly recommend Girard Meat Market. I’ll definitely be returning!”
“The cheese and deli counter at this location is excellent! Amer was very helpful and introduced us to a couple of new products that we like so much that we ended up purchasing. His friendliness, professionalism and skills remind me of the people who used to work behind the counter at the Italian Market location - the ones who ended up in their book and got promoted away from counter service.”
“Great selections of Goat and the meat selection was available and fresh. there is also so many options in this area for fresh Vegetables as well. Great service by the way!”
“Was finally in the area and went for "the fungool" sandwich that I heard so much about. However, was told that they no longer make it and only had cold items. Ended up getting a cold roast beef hoagie. I was disappointed that they didn't have what we had originally wanted. However, the bread and roast beef were great, which made up for it.”
