Central Meats plus a Pitboss grill is an awesome combination! My favorite Chesapeake Butcher! Theres nothing like that classic butcher shop sound of slicing meat and wrapping it in that thick brown paper! Central Meats delivers every time. Large assortment, spices, and sauces. You cant go wrong with CM! Who doesnt love butcher cut bacon! Family friendly establishment, very professional staff.
Great first time experience! They have plenty of meat cuts and have great customer service. Ohh and they threw in a free Pound of sausage. Thank you! I’ll see you again soon.
Good selection, no turkeys but they had everything else I needed!
A fantastic selection of pork, all sorts of sausages, turkey parts, & other hard to find meats. Good selection of beef. Beef bacon pkgd or they will slice it for you. Loved this place!
Always a great butcher shop. The prices are on point with the grocery store and you are supporting a local business that has Virginia raised meat. They also process wild game and do custom cuts.
I made a special trip to the butcher shop with what I thought was a simple request: To buy a pound of pork butt roast. I needed it for a Chinese BBQ recipe. Not knowing anything about meat, I was astonished when all they had was 7 pounds and above. Far too much for just myself and my mother.I explained my dilemma to the butcher, who spoke to his manager. It took a few minutes, but he cut a special one pound batch of meat just for me. I was blown away by his skill and customer service.I also picked up four sausages (as a first-time guest, my first pound of sausage was free; be sure to mention the promotion if youre a first-timer), and some bun-length Nathans hot dogs.The shop has an amazing selection of meat.I love this place; I wish it wasnt so far away from my house or Id be back regularly. As it is, Im saving this to my list of preferred shops.Five stars.
Awesome pulled pork. They sell mild to spicy. I recommend the spicy. The butchers case is to die for. They also sell frozen and precut family packs. Ive used them for catering twice and was very pleased.
Fresh cut meats food customer. Service good prices
First time here on Friday July 9,2021. My sister usually comes here for her meat and raves about. We were both disappointed today. I wish I had taken pictures. Some of the meat should have not been displayed. The pig feet and ears were old and dried. The Turkey wings and oxtails did not look fresh at all.Hopefully the next time she goes it will be better
We always have great service here. Items are packaged well. Great selection of beef, pork, chicken, etc. They have exotic meats as well in the freezer area. They have dog food/treats too. They have rubs, sauces, spices, vegetables, ice, etc. We have liked all the meats we have bought some this place the last 3 years. They have had specials happening every time we have gone in here. They have a Facebook page as well that shows the specials and they have a website you should checkout. You can also call to order meat for pickup. You can get cattle, etc. processed here as well for a fee and get your meat so you dont have to cut it all up yourself.
Dont buy the minute steak. Its just loose hamburger and falls apart when you try to cook it. On the other hand, the hot smoked sausage is great!
Great selection. Wonderful service. Simple and easy to find what you need.
I never have any issues & the food is reasonably priced.
Great selection and a friendly staff. They are willing to walk you through different selections.
This place never fails to please. Great meats at better prices. Well worth the drive from Norfolk.
Been going to Central Meats for over 20 years now. Best meats in town, the staff there are my second family, very friendly and courteous. You get treated awesome.
Central Meats didnt disappoint!!! I was able to run in and I found exactly what I had been looking for. The price was awesome and the service was fast and convenient. Employees including the cashier was super fast and efficient. Ill definitely be back. Ive been going to Central Meats for a very long time now and theyve always been superb!! Thank you!!! Keep up the amazing and hard work. You guys rock!
Best place hands down for your meat poultry and seafood. The have everything including the seasonings. Always have a sale going on! But even then, they are the best price around.
Love this place! The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff is always appreciated. Because its not very large and because they are adhering to COVID-19 guidelines, you may find yourself waiting to get inside. Also you may need to wait at the meat counter for meats that require weighing or special requests. They may need a ticket system here because it can get congested quickly. Overall, it is a great establishment and I will continue to be a customer.
Wonderful place Wonderful staff. Best place around here to get actual FRESH meat!!!!! Use to shop there as kid with my grandma now I shop there for my own family
The best cuts, options and prices in the 757!!
Good selection of meets and BBQ supplies. Knowable butchers and staff
As usual Im loving every bite! Fantastic meat, courteous staff, always ready to help. Ive been going there since it was Mexeils, spelling may be wrong. Started having them butcher our meat in early 1960s. Mike Perry old Princess Anne County resident
I always like getting my steaks from here. Next Im gonna order a bundle.
Love the meat and the personel is always courteous
1st Class Butcher Shop!! I dont even buy meat at chain grocers any more. Spend a dollar more for 5 dollar more quality, your body and family will thank you. Central meats is Chesapeakes little pearl and we cant live right without her or him, however you wanna swing it. You had better get your life right and get down there because they close at 5 and dont open on Sunday.
Excellent selection of meat. Keep in mind that slicing meat is an extra $1/lb.
Best and freshest meat in town. The staff is great and helpful. Has a great selection of all meats youll ever need.
This is my absolute favorite place to visit! Everyone is always so friendly and the quality is always superb! No need to go anywhere else for your meats!

Great customer service.
Very stocked with assorted meats.
First time I ever been there and I was very impressed. They have all cuts of meat that I like and need. I will be going back there after the new year and stock up. Reminds me of being back in NYC.
Only issues I have here is sometimes when I grab meat there is blood all over the packaging and area it is in that gets on my hands and I cant wash it. Haha that just might be a personal issue
Great meat selection and prices.
Best place for knuckle bones, and dog food...
Very friendly. You hear the employees asking does anyone need assistance. I found everything I needed and wanted. Got our New Year pork for dinner.Will actually be back on Monday. Thank you Central Meats.

Great selection of meats. New person behind the counter helping me needs to take a class on wrapping the meats better.
We have been shopping here for years. We buy in bulk and stock our deep freezer with a couple months worth. Saves money and in general a better quality of meat. Always great customer service, knowledgeable and friendly.
Great products and prices. Fresh cuts.
Stopped by yesterday to pickup a bone in prime rib roast but settled for choice. I am sure it had something to do with my lack of planning so it was all good. So I cooked it up today and it was amazing, not to mention it was my first time. Also first time at Central Meats and it was a great experience.
They have a great selection of all kinds of meat. We always get beef, pork and chicken. All are fresh never frozen. The only place I purchase my meat from. I highly recommend.

Looking everywhere for a tomahawk steak and finally found them in abundance at a great price here at Central Meats 😍
Best fresh meat market around,No shrinkage in any of the meats. Due to COVID-19 you cant order the bundle packages but they do have express bundles (no substitutions) when you walk in. Families of 5 or more, youll get Great prices for great meats that last for awhile.
They were so nice to help me & the store was very busy which is a hard thing to do. I purchased great meats not only for my family cheap i also got raw dog food for my puppy.
Store was clean, employees where professional, and the selection of meats was impressive and prices where reasonable.
This place is the Disneyland of meat markets. A magical experience. If you have, or will ever, grill, smoke, or cook meat of any kind, buy from here.
Wow I died and went to Sausage Heaven Awesome store looks like awesome food as well. Cannot wait to try it!
The young lady that waited on me was very helpful and courteous and friendly
Great cuts of meat! Great service. My definite go to place for quality cuts of meat. Very friendly staff!!!
Fantastic place to get meat!! All their meat is antibiotic-free with no growth hormones. Their management is the best -- around Thanksgiving I didnt need a whole turkey and asked about turkey thighs -- the next time I went in, they were in the meat case! We have also ordered specialty meats in the past for a special diet, e.g., an elk and maybe a bison brisket -- so they can get some unusual things as well.
Went in there this afternoon for the first time. The employees were helpful in helping me get what I needed. They have a great selection of meats. I will definitely be back
This is my 2nd order pickup experience. This place is amazing! If youre in Chesapeake 23320 you must swing by and check it out yourself! I would say this will be the only place Ill buy my poultry! My first time I called them and ask if they can do order pick up. The lady helped me take the order and got everything ready in 10 mins! I went in and get in the line and paid! Everything is ready to go! The 2nd time I called this morning at 10:30 and they told me to pick up at 1pm. I asked if they can help so I can pick it up at 11 because is so hot out and with my 2 little ones! I went there at 11:10 and went to the counter! Paid for it in 1 min and someone even helped to carry the whole box of meat to my van! I cant describe how exceptional the service is! To me is like royalty treatment! No wonder this place have so many customers! Thanks for providing such wonderful service and good quality products!
A small place! The young man who waited on us had a bad attitude...like he didnt want to be there. I tried everything I could to get him to at least smile. We spent over three hundred dollars in that store. The cashier was a very pleasant person that the meat handler could take notes from.
