What quality butcher shop, would give you 2 large chicken thighs, and 2 tiny ones? You are ready to cook, and this is what you find in the package. In addition, this is the most expensive butcher around. Go to a quality place down the street: VerBrugge! I was saving myself an extra stop, while marketing.....Never again.

The rabbit/duck sausage I had tonight was about as salty as seawater. Do they taste what they sell? The prices signal very upscale, I wish the merchandise would catch up with it. Fifth Quarter in Montclair is in the same price bracket but noticeably higher quality, esp. the beef.

Great selection of stellar meats, and I found Zachary, the person running the store this afternoon, knowledgeable and helpful in my selections. For people used to mass-manufactured beef, the flavors of grass fed regional beef may come as a surprise. (Completely different animal, no pun intended) For me it was a delicious one. The ribeyes are to die for, and the one time I caught a tough steak, (happens to anyone who eats a lot of meat or has a large family that does, like I do) they immediately replaced the steak without question, and were super friendly about it.Cooks tip: Get the short rib patty or the bacon-short rib patty when available. They make a mouth-watering burger.I highly recommend this place.Also to the people critical of them here, give them a chance to make it right! They will. And, they own the LAST USDA inspected slaughterhouse in the San Francisco Bay Area. Between having my beef frozen or shipped out from 1000 miles away or more, I prefer to get mine regionally with a family owned farm, even if it does cost a little more sometimes.Its worth it.Pictured: Recently Purchased and Gorgeous ribeye from Marin Sun FarmsP.I.

I tried the lamb and beef from this butcher shop and you can actually tell the quality of this meat is well beyond what you can find in other places. More than that, the service was amazing. I went there to buy a whole bone-in lamb leg, plus about 20lbs worth of short-ribs. The service was amazing, they cut the ribs for me in the moment, and clean the leg too. Going there was an hour drive from home, but theyll have me visiting there again.

A very inconsistent product line, I have been to their shop too many times to count over the past 3 years and all I can say is that while I am all in for local and 100% grass fed and finished meat that is treated humanly, the butcher-shop needs to improve the customer service, in terms of knowledge and lastly the quality of the products they sell. I feel that the only reason the are so mediocre is due to the lack of choices for butcher-shops in the bay area that only offer grass fed products. Many a times the lamb I bought from them tasted like mutton and the beefs fat was white and not the traditional yellow of grass fed beef nor did it have the more meaty and beefy taste typical of grass fed beef. I gave up on them and will not shop there any more. My choices are Markegards at the farmer market and Sun Fed Ranch which is offered at Nugget Markets and Andronicos.

Quality meat, knowledgable staff and friendly butchers willing to listen to ignorant purchaser questions as well as educate i asked to explain something in a non snarky way. thanks!

Real deal right here. While animals broken down daily, everything true pastured, which Ill take over organic any day (though the meat is also organic), knowledgeable, and just an outstanding product. Priced accordingly, but Id rather eat 1/2 lb of great meat prepared with care than 1 lb of mass produced shite.

Service was definitely sub-par... lots of eye rolling and sighing as I asked for lamb chops. Same treatment for the person ahead of me for no reason whatsoever. As for the meat, lamb chops at that price should taste good, which was far from being the case. Overall, really not a great impression. I might give it another shot in the future but that place is definitely not high on my list.

I began shopping there recently and the service is rushed even if its not crowded staff seems like their doing you a favor. I had one person that waited on me that was truly wonderful and personable. I am researching how to buy grass fed animals elsewhere and stop shopping there. The products are not as appealing I have passed up on products for that reason. I would not recommend Marin Sun because I would not like anyone I care for to be treated in a off hand manner. Its really sad.

I love Marin Sun farms. Theyre sausages are delicious. Meats are always fresh.

Great selection, knowledgeable staff, organic, local, sustainable meat!

This is the best butcher in the Bay Area
