CASTLE CHASE POP UP SHOP

Hello Again,

Happy New Year to everyone.

I am planning a Pop up Shop on Saturday 25th January there won’t be a shop on 1st February due to a family commitment.  We will have Fresh Home Bred Lambs that have been pasture fed available.  If you would like a specific cut or size of joint, please ring me on 07803 000 465 to discuss and I can arrange for the butcher to prepare it for you.  Orders welcome before 9:00am on Wednesday 22nd January.  Some cuts including chops, Barnsley chops and racks of lamb are very popular so please feel free to reserve any of these items and either collect on Saturday or arrange a mutually convenient time to collect.

We will be taking orders for half and whole lambs for our March Pop up Shop and will also have fresh lamb cuts on that day.  Whole lambs will be £220 and half lambs £110.

Frozen Beef and Venison and Lamb are always available either on shop days or by arrangement just ring or text me to arrange a time to come and browse.

We look forward to seeing you.
Kind Regards
