Louise Earl Butcher - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Love this place but the bacon hasn’t be great lately. Almost all fat on the last couple orders. Obviously I expect a decent amount of fat, but when it’s cooked there’s hardly anything to really eat.

Wanted nice steaks for my birthday so decided to try Louise Earl, we’ll be back! The steaks were tender and great! We also enjoyed trying a number of the different sausages.

The best surprise, though, was the service. They helped us pick out lots of wine and truly knew their stuff!

Had a private dinner here with a group of friends. One of the best meals I've had in a long time. The only thing I would have changed was the balsamic dressing on the beat salad was strong enough. Incredible service, people, and food. All local.

Had my meats cut up and ready to purchase along with a 4pk of beer and the person checking me out told me my ID was fake It's very clearly not I don't even know what she based that on. That is the rudest I've ever been treated and was honestly in shock. Completely unacceptable customer service. I would gladly come back and have my ID examined again and accept the apology thats warranted. This is an edit. I would like to know why you feel the need to humiliate potential customers for trying to do business with you.

I messaged the ahead of time and they had my stuff ready to go! Everyone in there was helpful and nice. Loved the extra stuff they have for sale too. Highly recommend checking them out for your meat needs.

This is the place I have been looking for my whole life. Amazing is all I can say. I have tried many of their products and nothing has disappointed me at all. Great sausages, house made pate and terrine, house made lunch meat that will blow your mind. While in the military I lived in Europe for 6 years and always went to France to shop for groceries. In France/Europe we would get the pate and terrine that were so tasty. Coming back to the US we had a hard time finding pate and terrine, until now!

On my first visit I met one of the owners who was very nice, helpful, and willing to share her story and processes with me. This should be everyone's butcher. The sausage is super tasty and moist. They even have classes on sausage and pate making. I highly recommend this place to everyone. Especially if you are a fan of tasty meat, seasoned to perfection, and a promise to use all of the animal with minimal waste.

Walked by lots of times and thought I’d stop by and try them. I like that they sell locally raised beef and pork. Purchased sausage to grill, they look delicious, anxious to try them.
Update…tried them, delicious!

Stopped in for the first time over the weekend. The woman at the counter was extremely friendly and explained exactly what the shop does and where they get their meat. Very impressed I've been looking for a place like this forever. We ate the steaks last night and oh my goodness the meat is the best we have had in ages. Can't wait to come back and try more cuts do not pass this place by what a gem!💎
