Ellis Fine Foods

Lou and the lads are always helpful and friendly. Top quality produce every time. Would not buy my meat anywhere else. The farm produce is first rate. His own reared pork is the best I've ever eaten.

Organic Meat. Always buy garlic butter chicken thighs, home made cumberland sausages, Little Ellis dry-cured back bacon and delicious venison & red wine home made pies, venison steaks etc. Wouldn't shop anywhere else for these items.

Ellis's- where British food comes first. Love their policy of no forgeign meat. The new oak smoked back bacon is fantastic. Best pork in the world.

Good friendly Service. Best shop on the High Street. Our favourite are the chinese ribs and homemade sausages. Keep it up Lou.

Only best of Britisg at Ellis's. Honey and Apple cured ham on the bone from their own pigs. Best we've ever had. Home grown pork from their own farm, now being fed on apples..Fantastic!

They offer a wide selection of british source known meats, free range and organic.I'm always impressed with their large variety of other products of good quality such as dairy products, fruit and vegetables and perservatives. The staff are all extremely helpful and friendly and nothing is too much bother. Their Christmas selection of high quality meats are a must especially their organic turkeys. The high street would not be the same without having a reliable friendly butcher such as Ellis's and they are the heart of the community and their popuality is immense, they always appear to be busy!

Fantastic produce from summer BBQ's to a Christmas turkey. Staff always friendly and remember faces. No week would be complete without popping in to collect such quality produce.

Personal service, friendliness, great produce.

Ellis fine foods, brilliant home reared pork and sausages. Best of all home cured bacon with cripsy rined, lovely!

Not only does Ellis Fine Foods serve great produce but they are a great service to the local community too. The choice of local meat & veg is fantastic, and the quality superb. Lou and his team are always so friendly and give cooking tips too! A big advantage is buying the exact quantity you need to fit your budget - no pre packed goods here. A very satisfied customer for over 15 years. Good Luck you deserve it ! - The Dowlings

This is one of the last remaining traditional butchers in the area and people come from miles around to shop here.

Excellent Butchers. Wouldnt buy my meat anywhere else. All the staff are lovely and very helpful. Good quality, locally sourced meat and a wide range of organic produce.

Such a polite team of young men at Ellis who know their produce. I have found the quality of the Ellis deli counter superb! If you are able to take a whole leg, they will even make your smoked or unsmoke ham to your own recipe. Also the fresh meats are adictive, all year round. I have even had the Ellis team create a batch of bespoke sausages, simply devine!

Excellent products superb meats/hams etc.knowledgeable staff.

If only every town had an Ellis fine food the supermarkets would have a lot of problems. You cannot put a price on the quality of food offered and the major contribution that Lou and his team make to the local community. It does not get better than this shop.

Lou and all the staff are always so very helpfull. It doesn't matter what time of the day you go in they always have a smile

Constantly improving, a great selection of fine foods. An asset to any high-street, we're pleased they're on ours!

Great organic meat you can take home with you, not mail order; Manor Farm non-homogenised milk from Dorset and can't wait for Lou's runner beans. Also the home grown pork is delicious and the ham is really good. The Deans

Fabulous meat, lovely vegetables and fruit, scrummy eggs, a whole selection of fruit juices, cheeses, cold meats, sauces etc and great service. Why go anywhere else? lindajc

Very well presented fresh meats and british fruits, but my favorite is the venison and rabbit pies with red wine sauce, its brought me back to appreciating how a good pie should be.

Ellis Fine Foods is the jewel of Whitton - their produce is outstanding and their service excellent. Their organic meat counter is top class and now with the farm organic fruit and veg produce you can get everything you need to cook up a storm ! Keep it up!!

Lou and his staff are a pleasure to deal with - he also sells fresh farm veggies and free range eggs amongst a host of other things. Whitton High Street is a better place for Ellis Fine foods!!

Lou and his staff make this place a pleasure to visit. Helpful and knolwledgeable staff and nothing is too much trouble - and open on Sundays. We have recommended Ellis Fine Foods to all our neighbours and they now travel here to shop - we cannot believe they did not win last year. My partner is a vegetarian and she also thinks this place is fab as they also sell farm fresh veggies and fruit of excellent quality. Lou is now also rearing his own pigs which he is selling - I tried some chops and sausages last week and they are fantastic. Lou also recommended how to best cook the chops - last Christmas we waited almost an hour to get in as the queue was that long and he still took the time to make up a Beef Wellington while we waited. I cannot recommend this place highly enough - It makes Whitton High Street worth a visit!

We have being buying our meat from here since moving to the area about 8 years ago and the variety, quality and value of the usual and not quite so usual is second to none. They are very knowledgeable and freindly (but not overly so)and always keen to assist and frequently inspire me to cook something I haven't cooked before. When friends come to visit us now they always make a trip to Ellis Fine Foods to buy some of what we have cooked for them (some of them even buy to take back for thier friends !!). All in all I never thought I would ever become passionate about a butchers shop, but the sausages, the steaks, the beef, the ham, the bacon, the pies, the burgers, the eggs, the pork chops, the barbeque packs, the list goes on are without any doubt the best I have found anywhere. Go there and find out for yourself.

great selection of meats, great sausages a welcomed break from supermarket shopping!

This butcher's is one of the main reasons that my husband and I bought a house in Whitton-yes really! When we had been house hunting three and a half years ago we went over to Whitton from New Malden and on seeing Ellis's butchers and the fantastic array of meat and the smell of the wonderful barbequed meat we agreed this was the place to live near. Our house is only 7 mins walk away and I am now one of the regulars, and am very happy with the choice and superb quality of the meat on offer. I have never tasted pork chops and roast pork like what I buy in this butchers, it is so sweet and tastes divine. The minty lamb chops as another reviewer said are to die for and a big favourite for me and my husband. The chickens roast up a dream, and the steak well, both the rump and fillet are terrific. In fact since moving to Whitton and shopping at this marvellous butchers we hardly ever go out for a meal, as I much prefer to buy local good meat from a really top notch butcher. I always have a chat and some banter with the staff which I should think brightens up their day as it most certainly does mine. This is a real gem of a shop and as long as it stays here I will stay in Whitton. I think that I have said it all. If you haven't been there start going you will never go anywhere else again.

The quality and variety of the meat is briliiant. It is really great to have a 'proper' butcher not to have to use a supermarket.

Excellent range of produce.. Fresh food & Friendly Service...

septacular veg and superb staff always willing to help you .

Amazing Sausages . Brilliant Ham . Very polite staff and always a welcoming atmostsphere.

A friendly shop with excellent produce, the best ham for miles around. Nothing is too much trouble. The organic supplies are delicious as is every thing else.

The best ham I've ever tasted !!!

Excellent range of tasty sausages, great selection for the BBQ as well, not that we have had much chance to use it this year!

It says something when one looks forward to going to your butchers every week. I have been a customer of Ellis's now for several years and the quality of the meat and service is outstanding. Its a superb shop with a wonderful atmosphere, and the staff is always very friendly and knowledgeable of the produce and meat they sell. It's always a pleasure shopping there.

Ellis Fine Foods... They're the best !

Lovely staff, very helpful with suggestions on how to cook and prepare all the meats they sell. Also lovely fresh vegetables that taste and look like vegetables use to!

friendly good service and our dog really appreciates the bones which we get from here as well! Visit if you get the chance....best tomato sausages south of yorkshire!

Wonderful meat, excellent range and quality; organic vegetables, fruit juices, cheese etc; good delicatessen counter; good service and knowledgable butcher - much of the food comes from his own farm; the chickens from Bramble Farm are just heavenly.

I feel very lucky to have this fine shop in my local area. We should support the independent suppliers and not let the giants take over. Well done Lou, your hard work is appreciated.

For the past 16 years approx I have visited Ellis`s butcher twice per week and have always had excellent service with good quality meat.I am a Good Food Reader so I am always asking for meat to be prepared in a certain way and nothing is too much trouble.HAVE NEVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED.Also good vegetables and tasty juices.

Brilliant customer service - nothing is too much trouble - outstanding cuts of meat. You know where everything has come from. Fresh vegetables also lovely. This butcher plays a large part in the community - donating both meat for school/community BBQs and prizes.

An expert at supplying quality meat of all types, the source of which is declared. Cooking suggestions and advice freely given in a courteous and friendly manner! The best for miles around!

Great steak and the scotch beef is to die for (espeically when cooked by yours truly!) The staff are always really nice and friendly - great to be able to shop somewhere where real food is served by local people with an interest in their customers. Great! Keep it up. Julie

Good quality meat & the staff is very helpful. They even give advice about cooking! Wonderful customer service.

Quite simply the staff - nothing is too much trouble, they are consistently friendly and welcoming. The quality of the meat and vegetables are superb as well.

The staff are extremely helpful in supplying what you want. They always support local fairs and functions supplying the BBQ food. Excellent variety of meats in season, including game. They taught me how to clean and prepare my own pheasant.

This shop is soooooooooooo fab the posh pies o my god so nice i wish i had 1 right now. the staff are really frendly and helpful and very nice.

Really good meat and cut to the size you want, nothing is too much trouble. The veg is beautifully fresh too. Friendly staff, shows Tesco just what meat should be like!! The manager/owner also donates prizes for local charities so it shows that they are part of our Whitton Community. I can not fault the shop its brilliant. Hope you win guys, keep up the good work.

The quality of Ellis' meat is second to none, I wouldn't think of buying anywhere else. Friendly efficient service, nothing too much trouble no matter how busy they are. My personal favourites are their chipolatas, Welsh cheese and organic pork. Thank you Lou.

The service is friendly quick and efficient.help and advice excellent the food is excellent quality and it is always a pleasure to shop there. having moved 7 miles away I still travel back to buy there.

Friendly staff, top quality service, top quality produce. What more can I say?

This place is fantastic. The staff are great, friendly and very helpful. The meat is absolute top quality I wouldn't shop anywhere else for meat, sausages or veg -and their Tomato relish is outstanding!!

Always cheerful and willing to assist in anyway. Always seeking to improve the business by introducing new and exciting produce. First class butcher and now ever increasing farm shop.

This is an absolutely fantastic outlet. The staff are very friendly, helpful and delightful to deal with. The meat is superb especially the beef and chicken. In addition the range of additional products is a real bonus especially their range of vegetables and chutneys. Because of the efforts of the staff at Ellis' I have stopped using Tesco and now look forward to purcahsing as much of my fresh produce as possible from them. Outstanding.

I am pretty addicted to their amazing beef wellington! Brilliant shop, my family has been shopping there for years. Can't stand the dominance of Tescos, their meat is nowhere near the fantastic stuff EFF has. Had a fantastic roast beef lunch today thanks to them!! Fabulous. Fabulous. FABULOUS.

Staff always so helpful - they have got me out of a last minute dinner emergency many a time (I'm a terrible cook) - providing cooking advice, best quality produce and a cheerful service. Thanks again lads!!

Good, friendly service, meat cut as you want it, and fresh home grown vegatables. (We had runner beans that had been picked this morning). What supermarket offers you that?

This is the perfect local shop. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. You always feel special no matter how much or how little you spend. They go out of their way to offer advice if needed and keep up a cheerful conversation all the time they are serving you. then to top it all their food is absolutely delicious, from beef that melts in your mouth, free range chicken, barbecue food and all sorts of fresh and cooked meats and sausages to their wide range of organic and home grown fruit and veg. Not to mention all the pickles and sauces plus the free range eggs and organic milk. A fabulous shop for local people.

Not only do Ellis' sell excellent meat and poultry and fruit & vegetables they stock organic milk and yogurt from Dorset farms. Their openings hours are long so one can buy eggs and bacon for an early breakfast or buy a cooked chicken on the way from work.

The staff are always pleasant and helpfull, they even got me a vegetarian haggis for Burns night! Thank you

The chaps in the shops are very friendly and helpful. The shop also has an excellent range of meat, veg, sauces, jams, etc. My family love the food and all agree that it tastes so much better than anything from the local supermarkets.

suzanne knowlson Woking Great Staff always helpful the meat is out of this world and has the best turkey at Christmas ,with out a doubt an outright winner.

A first class butchers! The butchers are fabulous- always cheerful and extremely helpful. The wide selection of produce is exceptional.

Simply First Class! The quality and variety of the meats and vegetables are fantastic and the service provided is exceptional. The staff are well trained and know exactly what we want as customers. I would not shop any where else but Ellis's Fine Foods for my meat and vegetables.

All of the butchers at Ellis' Fine Foods are allways helpful, patient and chearful. My daughters come down from Cheltenham and Chessington to buy their meat from here. All of the produce they sell is always excellent quality and value for money. If they don't have what you want they will try and obtain it for you. They are the only butchers I know who can provide you with an excellent back rib of beef, how it is traditionally meant to be. Their Barbeque meat range is also outstanding.

Always cheerful and helpful - quality excellent Wide range of meats, sausages, cold meats and vegetables Keep it up

The quality of goods at Ellis's is amazing all year round. They definitely deserve to win!

We are so very lucky to have this wonderful butcher in our High Street. The range of meat, poultry and dairy produce, along with organic veg and fruit is always of the highest quality. The staff are so very helpful and offer advice on any cuts of meats, how much to buy and cooking tips. At christmas the turkeys sold taste amazing! All year round the standards remain, of the highest quality and service

Excellent food, excellent service and open 7 days a week. Not only good meat but also good greengrocery and dairy products. A delight to shop at this establishment.

The staff are lovely, welcoming and friendly plus they know what they are talking about. They will give you any advice on how to cook something and the best way to get the most out of the meat. The BBQ packs are FANTASTIC and at a brilliant price too, keeps me coming back week after week to get more. You don't need nice weather to enjoy them, they are great on the grill! IF you haven't been then get down there and give them a go, you won't regret it!

It's reassuring buying my meat and veg from this butchers, it's always fresh and from farms so you know you're eating quality produce. The staff are always cheery and full of good ideas as to what to do with what you buy. I love the food, customer service and especially the selection available. They have never let me down!!

Excellent service, superb meat and also to die for cheeses from North wales. All in all what a real butchers should be like.

a real oasis in whitton high street. Delicious organic meats, vegetables and deli (they sell snowdonia cheese which is a particular favourate of mine and not too easy to get hold of). Service is excellent and they are always willing to give advice on cuts and cooking etc. Prices are great as well.

The service is fantastic, the food is of the highest quality and nothing is ever a problem. The staff are friendly and always willing to give advice on how a cut could be cooked.

Like having a farm shop always available right here, in our high street. Plus the friendly staff - can't beat it.

Helpful and friendly staff, who are always on hand to offer well informed advice. Plus excellent quality meat; tasty sausages and bacon that makes the average gammon steak look pretty puny. Fantastic for a Sunday morning fry-up!

It has to be said, this place sells the best bugers and sausages around! The staff are great too!!!

The only food hero, here is a shop that you can get everything you need to eat, fresh, farm grown and always tasty. Always looking forward and always giving people a much needed alternative to supermarkets in which you will not see red rum runner beans , pink fur apples, the best sugar snap peas I have ever tasted that I actually have seen the photos of the very sugar snaps I was buying growing in his garden…………brilliant, a selection of fruit and veg that is just mouthwatering……….can you get better provenance than that!!!, as well as photos of the latest addition...........and you better get in the cue behind me to secure some of the saddle back pigs that the boss BIG LOU is now rearing in his garden, slowly, organic, and the way that it should be done…………………a true purveyor of bespoke munchies and all done with the best banter. So much more than a trip to the shops, do yourself a favor UKTV…………………check out Ellis's……………..and don't get any funny idea's about the saddle back pigs………………THERE MINE………….ALL MINE………….

Service which is of the highest standard and food to match. A willingness to help and explain different cuts. Great for BBQ's, sausages & spit roast chicken; organic produce of a high quality. My wife who is a veggie even loves it!

This butchers is a fatastic local outlet. They are so friendly and the food is great and reasonably priced!!! I would certainly recommend this to my family and friends.

Good service,high quality organic meats sausages and Deli section

The only place around where we can buy different cuts of meat their blade bone of pork is delicious. As is everything in this fantastic local shop, burgers, sausages and the childrens favourite minted lamb chops. A haven for all foodies who care about where their food comes from and aren't prepared to compromise on flavour. Fab

This is a yummy place to go it does the best meat around and i wouldnt go anywhere else for my burgers or sausages.

Great staff, personal service. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, always willing to help, & give advice. Meats & produce second to none. Top marks for Lou & staff.

Always top quality produce, if only everyone stopped shopping at Tesco´s and bought their meat here.

Mum always buys the Sunday roast from Ellis - she won't buy her meat anywhere else. Right now though, I'm waiting for some decent weather so that we can have some of their great barbecue food. They do a much better selection than the supermarkets. Hope they win this competition!

The minted lamb chops are to die for. With such a great choice I always end up buying more that I had planned to. The service is friendly and professional and makes shopping there a pleasure and cooking the produce a joy.

i have been going to ellis butchers for about 20 years i have had excellent service they always go out of there way to help you it is always so clean the meat is always superb and the vegetables are first class the strawberrys melt in your mouth they are my local hero they should win this with out any doubt

The service is relaxed and friendly, the produce to die for (fresh veg alongside meat means Sunday lunch is sorted in one trip and free eggs with bacon make weekend breakfasts a mouthwatering delight) and if you haven't tasted their venison burgers, you haven't lived. Is it possible to live on Ellis's sausages alone?

Their homemade burgers are the best I have ever had.

Fantastic quality and variety of meat and produce and excellent service. Unfortuantely I do not live in the area so don't have the opportunity to get my shopping here all the time but when i visit family i stock up as much as I can! Wish them the best of luck, they truely deserve it. Keep up the good work.

Really good quality food. All different types of meat: all the usual plus the most enormous chicken breasts; BBQ meats already marinated; cold meats; all free range and some organic. Free range eggs.Organic fruit and vegetables. Organic milk. Plus loads more! Locally sourced - great to know where it comes from. Not over priced. Always a friendly service. And all within walking distance of my home - I'm so lucky!

Our organic turkey at Christmas was the best I have EVER had.

fantastic quality fresh food, very tasty, good value for money and service with a smile.

They sell good quality meat.My son works there and is treated very well.They also sell very good quality farm produce.I hope Mr Ellis does very well he works very hard and keeps inproving on his buisness

Old fashioned manners, good service and terrific meat and fresh veg. If you get a chance try their homemade organic hamburgers.

super friendly service, fine quality foods, good reasonable prices, my cherries this morning were costed at a fraction of the nearby supermarkets and the meats are always excellant value

We love the organic foods and the meat is always good quality, tender and tasty. The sausages taste really meaty, but best of all, is the bacon with a dozen free eggs. What a delight for Sunday breakfast.

the staff are great the meat and veg are second too none every one should have a butchers just like this

excellent choice of organic produce, staff friendly and always willing to offer cooking tips. Turkeys at christmas are fabulous and I have never had a bad experience with their meat, unlike supermarket meat.

I just love the produce, always recommending to others, quality is everything !

I love Ellis Butchers...i make a great chicken and ham pie, only because i get my ingredients from ELLIS. They are absolutly brilliant in pricing produce and service. LOng may it last!! Thank you so much xxx

Fantastic range of meats and home grown veg i highly recomened the Edzell blue potatoes.Whats the man going to grow next on that land?Surly got to be a local food HERO!!!

The best butcher for miles around, the meat is top quality, I have been buying from there for years and I have NEVER had a bad peice of meat or produce from them, and most likely never will. I recommend thier Aberdeen Angus mince. The staff are always helpful and very friendly. 5 stars!

I love this shop !! Everything about it is wonderful! the meat , staff , quality and advice , its all brill. If they were to shut down I would chain myself to the door I COULDNT LIVE WITH OUT IT !!!!

This place is amazing , brilliant meat , friendly staff and most of all fantastic quailty , ive never shopped at a super makert for 6 years ! Ellis' is my local food hero and should be everyones

Just great quality with very friendly and helpful service. Excellent meat and produce, lots of organic - minimum food miles, maximum quality. Not fussy, just doing a great job - exactly what a local butcher is meant to be.

Great products and great staff - will do anything you ask, i just need to convince lou that my (nigella's really) ham in coke is for real and tastes great!!!!! christmas wouldn't be the same without the sauages and turkey from ellis, end up cooking for more each year as it tastes so good. we don't realise how lucky we are to have them on the high street. the fish shop has gone lets hope the butchers survives. boycott tesco - keep it local!!!!!

Excellent produce, service and choice. Very helpful and will go the extra mile to provide what you want.

Ive been coming to lou's for about 5 years now. The quality of meat is the best, especially the organic range which is why i travel 3 miles from home to get everything i need from meat to organic veg that he grows himself. Id never go anywhere else.....

Excellent shop and staff!! I have been using this shop for 15 years now and I have always found it to offer high quality, good value and always a great variety of British foods. You can always get advice on cooking and they will provide the cuts of meat to suit your taste. To sum up it is the jewel in Whitton High Street if we did not live around the corner we would make the journey especially to shop at Ellis Fine Foods, they would be worthy winners of this “Food Local Hero” award.

Firstly, its fantastic to still have a butchers in our local high street, this twinned with the level of satisfaction I experience each and every time I shop there makes Ellis Butchers a fine example of a 'local hero'. The shop is always well stocked, offeirng a variety of products including meat, vegatables and diary most of which are locally produced and organic. The staff are always friendly, helpful and happy to assist.

The shop and staff are always very clean, meat tastefully displayed, nothing is too much trouble for the staff and they are always extremely polite. If I try something new then they even recommend how to cook it.

When Waitrose stopped selling Manor Farm Organic milk Ellis Fine Foods said they would order it in as it was from Dorset where the Childhay organic meat was produced. It is a pleasure to go to the shop every week to collect the milk, choose meat for the week and of course, we can't wait for Lou's home grown runner beans, potatoes and tomatoes. My husband and I always feel that we are treated like special customers and nothing is ever too much trouble - the staff always have a smile. It is a great way to shop.

Fantastic butchers - friendly service - nothing is too much trouble for them - their fresh veg is great too. Every town should have an Ellis!

We shop in Ellis a couple times a week and we're vegetarians! The milk is great and so are the fruit and veg, eggs, cheese, jams and marmelade. The staff are friendly and polite and it is a real neighbourhood shop with a great atmosphere. Open until 6pm to make shopping after work easier and on Sundays too, what more can you ask for?

I have shopped here for over 15 years since my son was a junior butcher there. He has moved on to other employers but I still go back to Ellis because the meat is so good, as is the service, value and the variety of fresh produce. He is still a butcher and can always tell when I serve Ellis' meat. Must be good!

Always helpfull, good value but most important of all local produce and very supportive of British Farmers; supermarkets and politicians take note!

Not only are all the butchers here friendly and cheerful, they are also knowledgeable, always ready with advice on how to cook or prepare meat or on which cut to use for a recipe. They also stock a wide range of farm produce and organic foods.

If you want to enjoy 'real' meat with flavour, fresh organic vegetables and other dairy produce, if you wish to receive excellent courteous service and helpful advice you cannot do better than visit Ellis Fine Foods.

Have not shopped in a butchers for nearly 20 years, the animity of picking up a pre wrapped joint etc in the supermarket meant not having to make a fool of my self! Recently fed up with their shoddy offerings I ventured into Ellis my local butchers, found the staff wonderfully friendly and helpful, the produce of which there is a wide variety tastes is not that much more expensive and tastes fantastic and meal times are more of a pleasure and am now a supermarket convert. I have recommended Ellis to family and friends and would urge all to visit and sample their wares! Tesco beware!!!!!

Over the last few years it has become more and more important to me (and others) to purchase local free range organic meat and vegetables. Ellis has responded by supplying exactly that. Their produce is of a far superior quality to anything that I can find in the supermarket and the lads cheerful service makes the whole shopping 'experience' really pleasant. We're very lucky to still have such a good local butchers - so many high streets have lost theirs.

Long live the local good butcher! I have shopped here for over 10 years - an evolving business that constantly meets the demands of his customers with good quality food. Good luck

Ellis is fab! Its food is first class and the service is brilliant. I moved to the area a year ago and was recommended it by so many locals and it has lived up to the great reviews.

excellent food! excellent staff! what more can you say apart from heros!!!

Outstanding service and quality. I regularly ask Lou for advice when hosting dinner parties, nothing is too much trouble. Christmas wouldn't be the same without a turkey from Ellis. It is so reassuring to buy quality food with expert knowledge and advice.

I moved last year so now do not live locally to Ellis's, but as their produce is excellent I still shop there every week, as I have done so for over twenty years. Their products, as far as I'm concerned cannot be beaten, for taste & value for money.

Fantastic choice of very tasty meat. Much much better than supermarket packaged meat. The staff are always very friendly.... will always use them.

My mum shopped there before me and I loved all the stories she'd come back with alongside the meats. Love the variety - you just can't find it anywhere else. My boyfriend noticed the difference in flavour straight off(he's always had supermarket bought) and he's always pestering me to go back and get something.

Used to shop there all the time then I moved further afield and the only shop is a large supermarket - tried their stuff for a week and found it tasteless. Now I go back to Ellis's once a week for a major stockup.

Service is first class, my family's been buying their meat for years. They're own made sausages are fantastic! The meats top notch. They've always had high standards and we love the fact they know where it's come from and that it's "organic".

lovely people, lovely service, lovely food, informative, helpful, friendly, personal, part of the community. You don't get this kind of service in Tesco or anywhere else. We've been using them for years. They do good sausages and turkey!

My family have been shopping at Ellis for decades and they've always supplied good quality meats.

what makes this place so special is the lovely meat & veg and there new organic juices that they have started to sell! theres such a wide range of quality produce at ellis, and the staff are so helpfull in helping u find what u want! definity the local heros

THIS IS THE BEST SHOP IN WHITTON DEFINITLY THE LOCAL HEROS! REALLY HELPFULL STAFF BRILLANT MEAT AND THE BEST BEEF WELLINGTONS ON EARTH!!!

A "traditional" butcher who has developed his business to compete with the supermarkets. High quality food lots of inventiveness, like his own haggis and those great cider and pork sausages, bring them back! Lou often works out front so you can see a crafts man at work doing what a proper butcher should be able to do. The range of vegetables from the farm is also impressive, showing an interesting will to experiment, like his various potatoe types. Great stuff

I have recently moved back to Whitton and my parents always used this place. In fact i distinctly remember as a small boy my mother asking to go an buy some eggs. As i bought the eggs i left the shop to catch up with my mum and dropped the eggs all over the place. Worrying what i should do the friendly staff replaced my eggs, gave me a pat on the shoulder and promised never to say anything to my mum. Now i am back i will always get my meat from the local butcher plus its ten times tastier than the supermarket.

Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff, lovely tasty meat and their cheese is wonderful.DT

We never buy meat from a supermarket anymore! Have rediscovered the fact that meat does have a taste to it!

Fantastic range of meat and seasonal fruit and vegetables. The staff are always friendly and are knowledgeable about the produce they are selling. Cooking tips are on offer too if required. Would not by my meat anywhere else. 10/10 every time.

Wonderful products and great knowledge of what they are selling. I have reccomended to over 50 people and have only ever received positive feedback. Absolutely superb.

Really frendly staff. They often provide useful cooking information. Shop is now expanding into organic veg and other organic goods (Fruit juice / Cheese / fish / eggs / milk) apart from meats. I would recommend anyone to pay a visit.

Excellant Butchers both Organic & British farm Produce. Quality & taste of Meat outstanding, providing I can always afford it I would never eat Supermarket meat again. Still has the feel & the look of a real Butchers with plenty of the old typical English butchers banter, a pleasure to shop there. The owner deserves his results because he must work at least 70+ hour week he is always there & smiling.

Good selection of organic and quality food - worth the special trip to avoid the supermarket - a great local resource please stay put!

Cooks a delicious piece of roast pork on the spit. The crackling is excellent!

Although i moved away from the area i still make a fortnightly visit as there is no other butcher to compare locally. Nothing is too much trouble for them and their range of foods is second to none.

What a fantastic shop - offering a wide range of organic produce, milk/cheese/meat/veg etc. Meat is first class - can highly recommend their fine selection of sausages and their smoked bacon is just first class. Minted lamb steaks will make your mouth water and the barbecue selection packs will keep your friends entertained during the summer months!!! I could go on and on........but to cut a long story short a first class butchers with fantastic friendly staff - nothing is too much trouble............highly recommended, if in Whitton or the surrounding area, you have got to make a visit you will not be dissappointed. Well Done Boys!

Elliz Fine Foods is a long established friendly store. When so many of our other stores in the high street are closing down due to large supermarkets in the area Ellis' have managed to hold on to the local market by offering a superb service and a great range of produce. You are always sure of a smile and a quick chat and their foods are of exceptional quality.

Ellis Fine Foods is a great place to buy home produce, great food and excellent service, ALWAYS with a smile. I wish them every success in obtaining this award they richly deserve it.

Ellis fine foods is outstanding. Excellent service, incredibly professional and the food is awesome. They also do a fabulous BBQ range which we simply couldn't live without during those BBQ months! My father is a sheep and beef farmer from Lancashire so he knows a thing or too about meat and he couldn't believe the quality and flavour of the meat. We recommend Ellis' to all our friends and wouldn't dream of buying from anywhere else.

Meat Lovers of the World Unite... Ellis Fine Foods is what makes eating great... Hmmmmmm... the Spring Lamb.... & what about the Sirloin Stake... Ooooh... & the Chilli Sausages... I'm salivating just thinking about it!!! Lou and the boys are always uber friendly, extremely helpful and informative and keep a varied selection of organic veggies and farm produce too... What more could you want than great value Best British Produce from a true Local Hero...

The meat is always the best quality and British. I would never buy my Christmas turkey from anywhere else and the beef rib roasts are just fantastic - rave reviews from all my guests everytime!

Ellis fine Foods have a large variety of farm produce from meat to dairy, fruit and veg organic and non-organic. You know the source of your food and it is British! The fruit and veg is locally grown and the service is excellent.

Don't ever leave us lou, Great selection of quality meat at a good price, home grown veg, fantastic home made pies and bar-b-que packs, dairy products too. What would we do without you, TESCO...NO THANKS

I don't live in whitton but have visited Ellis and what can I say? I have only been there once but I can see what every one says in whitton about Ellis, it is a great shop and I wish I had a shop like that where I come from! We only have a supermarket which you don't get quality and dedicated staff like at Ellis! This place has to win! They are the uktv heroes!

This shop is the best!! It sells every thing! meat! fruit & veg milk butter jams the best cheese you can buy and all at a good price too! If you can't find what you're looking for all you have to do is ask one of the staff and they can get it! This shop is a real local hero! You don't this type of quality from a supermarket! Every town needs a place like Ellis then we could say goodbye to the supermarkets!!!!

I have lived in Whitton for 2 years now, and when I first moved here from wales all my friends told me about the butchers on the high street they said it was the best place to go if u were planning a bbq or sunday roast, so I went down there to buy some meat for my bbq and spoke to one of the staff and they were so helpful in helping me with what to buy and how much I needed and how long I needed to cook it for, my bbq was a real hit and every one loved the meat and asked me where I got it from! This shop is a real hero and should win! Every town needs a place like this!!!

Excellent butchers shop. The best meat ever. Always happy to give advise. Keep up the good work.

Such superior meat. I will go out of my way to go to see Lou because I know he always supplies quality meat at fair prices. Always a cheerful word and winning smile.

The best food shop around - superb quality meat, great advice, great service. Always time to cut up meat exactly how you want it, and always something for the stock pot. Homemade haggis was so tasty. Also sells unhomogenised milk (unlike the huge local tesco). My twin girls even like the liver!

We have used this shop for the last five years and the quality of the meat is excellent as is the service you recieve also a lovely range of fresh vegetables.

What can I say - a Class Above The Rest. And what a pleasant surprise in this day to be called Sir and the customer is truly always right in this shop.

Excellent helpful friendly staff with personal touch. Good British food. We've been shopping there for years and never had bad service or produce. He tells us the best cuts for the day and has never disappointed.

This place is fantastic. Best meat I've ever tasted and the staff are ALWAYS willing to help. As soon as you walk in the door you know you're welcome any time. I've never shopped in a supermarket for my meat since I found Ellis'. And there open on Sundays which is always a bonus! This shop is my local food hero!

Nothing is too much trouble for the very friendly and helpful staff, from advising my granddaughter on how to cook the cheaper cuts of meat, to serving a pensioner with just a couple of sausages. Brightens up my day when I shop for vegs as well as meat.

Totally awesome Butchers and Farm Shop. The quality of the food is second to none and the always friendly and helpful staff make the entire experience one not to miss if looking for great meat. They have always gone out of their way to help with what ever they can. Not a bad word to say about the food or staff in over 3 years of shopping here. How many places can you say that about...?

SIMPLY THE BEST.......... I have been using Ellis fine foods for more than ten years and in that time have never and I mean never had anything bad to say about it. A proper old school butcher, always quality service from all the staff always the best top quality meat and a fantastic knowledge to call upon for meat lovers. Always open, with a massive selection of fresh farm produced deli, bbq, dairy, veg as well which once you have tried you will not go near a supermarket again....trust me. Ellis's has a huge loyalty from its regular customers of which are many as you will see when you visit it always very busy. Excellent shop, fantastic staff always time for a chat and a laugh. customer service that is genuine. So UKTV if you are looking for a real food hero look no further than BIG LOU and the boys at Ellis fine foods.

This butchers is a real gem - the staff are really friendly and give really good food advice. The meat is amazing, especially the organic range and i would never buy from the supermarket again - the roast lamb just melts in your mouth. It's also great that its open on sundays so you can pick up your full roast or bbq ingredients at the last minute. Well done for being such a top place!

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, The very best of everything, very friendly staff, always cheerful, you will never shop in a supermarket again once you have tasted their suberb quality foods, simply the best.

The guys are absolutely brilliant. The advice on the best cuts to cook, or practical assistance that they offer is fab. When entertaining the quality of the produce used is always commented on by my guests. They put together these amazing meat packs which are a huge favourite in the house! The guys offer service with a joke and a smile and are definitely my Local Food Hero!

There are few shops that you would say you'd be genuinely upset if they disappeared. But Ellis Fine Foods would be one of them. Produce and service are both top notch. Sausages certainly deserve a mention, as does the varied range of BBQ produce! A true local hero!

Best chicken pies in the northern hemisphere and excellent new season lamb and rump steaks - we never buy meat from supermarkets anymore.

A true local butcher (and now a grocer too!) offering great service and advice, but amazing meat and other local produce. Organic spring lamb was a big hit last Sunday - and their meatballs are another big favourite in our house. Definitely worth a trip - but clear your freezer first as you'll buy more than you planned to !!

We love the organic meat that is sold here - particularly the delicious beef. The staff are really friendly and knowledgeable, and the delicious farm foods are great - chutney, fruit and veg, cheese... a great shop.

Definitely the best! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, no question is ever too trivial or too esoteric for them. As long as it concerns meat, they know the answer! And they remember their customers, too. Add to that the fact that their meat is always of a superb quality, and that they sell a huge variety, and they've got a winner. I wouldn't shop anywhere else!

WOW !! this place is the ritz of meat, Everything they sell is always to notch and fairly priced . Great quality meat and friendly staff always willing to help. A brilliant shop and should win !

I do not live close to the Twickenham area but travel for work reason often to Twickenham. Due to the high quality produce and fabulous staff I make sure that i do as much of my meat and dairy shopping here as much and as often i can. Truly the best Butcher.

Ellis fine foods is definitely a fine shop. Cheerful, helpful staff, lovely meat and veg. I love the fact they do organic/free range foodstuffs. Would be very lost without them!!

What a fabulous butchers! - the staff are always friendly and the quality of the produce is second to none. Obviously Ellis Fine Foods is one of the few butchers that actually take pride in where they source their produce as it is of the highest quality.

This place is great. The food is 10 times better than any supermarket and cheaper. You actually get friendly service always. I would never buy my meat anywhere else, although a Tesco Metro is opposite and a superstore 10mins walk away. Try the homemade hamburgers!

After buying my meat from Ellis I could never now buy from a super market. The guys there are absolutely great, remembering you even if it has been a while and always good for a giggle. The meat is outstanding, the veg second to none and the service and advice is the best! I LOVE ELLIS BUTCHERS! Recommend it to anyone and everyone!

What makes this place special apart from the very helpful knowledgeable staff is their Organic Burgers YUMMMmmm!!!!! They really are the best I have ever tasted!! On top of all that they are open 7 days a week - BONUS!!!! now, I'm never shopping at a supermarket again!! Ellis Butchers - THE BEST!!!!

THE FRIENDLY STAFF. A WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS. GREAT STORE. BEST POTATOES AND MINTED LAMB I'VE EVER TASTED.

This is one of the best shops I have ever been to! The staff are so friendly and always make me smile whenever i go there, all the meat is fantastic and at a reasonable price too! If you have never been there pop down and see what i mean - you will not be disappointed!!!!

Top class produce, friendly service, open 7 days a week and some of the best home made haggis I've ever tasted. It doesn't get much better than this.

They stock a large variety of meats, of which the majority are organic, they also allow you to order in advance and will always prepare the meat to your liking. In addition they stock a number of other local produce like milk, eggs, fruit and veg. The staff are extremely friendly and really take an interest in their customers.

High quality food, excellent service, top class advice!

A true family butchers, open 7 days a week. Whatever you want it will be got and prepared as you want it.

Fantastic array of fresh British and local produce. As well as the extensive meat selection, good quality fruit and veg from local allotments is sold here, together with dairy produce & conserves all made and distributed within the UK. Minimum of plastic packaging too - which is important to me.

Friendly service, great range of meat and local home grown veg, milk and much more. I can highly recommend this valuable local shop.

This shop is a good old fashioned butchers staffed by people who really know about meat. The quality is excellent and the cost reasonable. The butchers are always willing to help you and will prepare meat for you if you ask. They also sell farm produce. All this and open on Sundays!
