Francis & Griffiths Butchers is a traditional butcher shop located on Load Street in the centre of town. Open six days a week, this locally run business offers a comprehensive range of classic meats and produce, maintaining a strict focus on quality, freshness, and trusted sourcing.
The shop opened in early 2020 following a full refurbishment and quickly became a reliable stop for residents. Run by Andrew Francis, who also operates a successful butcher’s in Ludlow, the counter is stocked daily with excellent local options. Customers frequently visit for the home cured bacon, traditional sausages, and premium cuts of local free range beef and lamb. The team also prepares highly popular homemade pies, which keep regular customers coming back week after week.
Service is a core part of the experience. Orders can be placed in advance, and the butchers are happy to accommodate specific cuts or requirements whenever possible. If you need a hand with preparation or cooking times, the knowledgeable staff are always available to offer expert guidance.
Located just a short walk from the museum, it forms a vital part of the thriving independent retail scene. Whether you are planning a traditional Sunday roast, a large summer barbecue, or just want a good pack of sausages for breakfast, the shop provides consistent quality and friendly service.
