ABOUT US
We are proud to celebrate 25 years serving our local residents and businesses!
Nestled in the heart of Copnor, our butchers shop provides local families and businesses with the freshest, best quality meat and produce, with a first class, helpful service.
We are renowned for hand producing award winning products, including pies and sausage rolls, and for our range of inspirational cook at home dishes and meals, 'Astles at Home', prepared by our talented in house chefs.
Our made to order, fresh meat and poultry freezer packs are best-sellers that allow our customers to buy and freeze ingredients for delicious forthcoming meals. With a small selection of veg, sauces and condiments also on offer, we’re the perfect place to source all your mealtime ingredients, under one roof.
DRY AGEING CABINET
Experience the difference with our new dry-ageing cabinet
We are proud to announce the addition of a state-of-the-art dry-ageing cabinet to our shop, making us the only butcher in Portsmouth to offer this premium service.
Dry-ageing beef is a process where cuts of beef are stored in a controlled, refrigerated environment for several weeks. During this time, moisture evaporates from the meat, concentrating its flavours, while natural enzymes break down the muscle fibres, resulting in enhanced tenderness and a rich, robust flavour. This method creates a superior beef product, offering a unique and premium dining experience.
FREEZER PACKS
We offer a selection of freezer packs – they come in three sizes, so it's a great way of buying your meat for the week, a special occasion, or the month, all in one go.
All the meat in these packs can be packed to your specification, making it easy
and simple for you to defrost the amount you need.
All freezer packs are made to order, fresh to you, ready to be used, or put in your home-freezer (no need to pre-order)
Unfortunately we cannot offer any swaps on our packs.
YOUR FRIENDLY BUTCHER
HERE TO HELP!
We're proud to implement the methods and philosophy of a traditional Butchers shop; the meat and poultry is cut, tied and boned out on site, by our fully trained Master Butcher. If you're deliberating over a choice of cut or need any cooking tips for the meat you are buying, just ask and we would be delighted to share our knowledge with you. The beauty of coming to a shop like ours, is that you will always receive a friendly smile and the personal touch.
ASTLES AT HOME
FRESHLY PREPARED
We have introduced a brand new range of complete, oven ready dishes for 2022. Designed by two amazing chefs who have joined us from one of Southsea’s much loved restaurants, these inspired ready to cook meals are absolutely delicious. Prepared on site, but only cooked once they reach the comfort of your oven, the dishes retain the best flavours. They really are ready to go, too, as we hand them to you in an oven-proof container.
AWARD WINNING
PIES & SAUSAGE ROLLS
Over the years, Astles has amassed an astounding reputation for our homemade pies. With almost every pie being an 'award winner' in its class, its no wonder they're so popular. With a range of sizes, from individuals to extra large, and flavours from pure steak to chicken & ham, there is something for all tastes.
