J. Waldron Butchers - Hamilton, Ontario

I wanted to update my review to include a round of applause for some of the newer offerings at J. Waldron Butchers- the prepared heat-and-serve meals 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Everything I have tried is amazing! Don’t get me started on the meat pies and the Mac and cheese. The peanut chicken is a must try- generous amounts of perfectly cooked chicken in a creamy flavourful peanut sauce. Enough for two people to have as a main. I served it with rice noodles. Delicious! Great value!

I cannot say enough good things about J. Waldron Butchers and Jamie himself! He offers the highest quality meats- raised and butchered ethically (and without antibiotics and hormones) which is important to me. He offers a huge selection, but is willing to go above and source custom meats and create custom cuts, and help you pick the right cut for the recipe you want to cook. He is kind, friendly and truly cares about his customers. I haven’t purchased meat anywhere else, and nor will I ever. Best bacon I have ever had, hands down! Congratulations Jamie- you’re doing a wonderful job and clearly all these 5 star reviews show your hard work has paid off! Excited for your new spot to open

Wonderful service, incredible meats and the best butcher I’ve found in years! Honestly been twice in the past week because it’s so good. The sausages are flavourful with a perfect fat to protein ratio. And the meat, my god it’s good and fresh! I recommend going out of your way to visit this.

Jamie Waldron Butchers is a necessary stop for my holiday, special occasion and family meals at least once a week. They offer amazing quality and a wide-range of options, from prepared meals to fresh cuts. In addition the staff is awesome, and take obvious pride in what they do: they are always helpful and so knowledgeable, (John’s tips helped me finally cook my steak perfectly!). The new location is fantastic; a real pleasure shopping there, and I always hit up #COMMACAFE for a flat white, as well. Thanks Jamie and staff!

My favourite butcher shop in the city, best Ontario lamb. Fresh and delicious eggs. I use them as the protein provider for any catering gigs I do. But I also use them to feed my family. Staff is very friendly and always making fresh products in front of you. Highly recommend.

A great local butcher shop. While not cheap, the quality is really high. Some nice dry aged meats in the cabinet when we were there. Try the Bone Marrow Burgers. Tony Bourdain would approve of them.

I run a small batch pet treat business, and I've been using J Waldron for several of my products. He's great at sourcing things at reasonable prices, and always friendly in his communications. Whatever your needs are, I'd highly recommend them!

Every time we come in we have a great experience. The selection of meat and ready made food is excellent and the customer service is phenomenal. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable of the product. Highly recommend Waldrons.

I was planning a special evening with good Friends (about a dozen guests). I’m a huge Rib Eye fan and wanted some nice steaks but wasn’t sure what best to do. They were excellent with advice, suggestions and I ended up purchasing 5 two inch thick bone in rib eye steaks. I was concerned as I had never grilled steaks that thick but I did exactly as instructed and they were without a doubt the best steaks I’ve ever had in my 52 years. I will absolutely be back to this wonderful gem of a Butcher again and highly recommend them to anyone
