Our shop

Family owned.
Since 2017.

Figtree Fresh Meats is run by Steve and Gracie. From day one the goal was simple: combine the most delicious, high quality meat and food with dedicated service and experience.

Our story

A destination for good food, every week.

The shop draws everyday families and food lovers trying new ways to bring quality to the dinner table. It puts its success down to two things: a real love of the best meat, and a genuine understanding of what customer service is about.

There is over 40 years of experience in retail butchery behind the counter. The range has been put together with the regulars in mind: ethically sourced meat from reputable suppliers, plus sausages, quick and easy meals and popular home made pies made right here.

It is a family business in every sense. Their daughter Jessie worked the counter for nearly four years, and Darryl runs the shop's footy tipping comp, which gives customers and staff a chance to banter about the game.

"'Old' fashioned Butchers here to serve you with their banter and good looks." Their Instagram, June 2023.

The banter is part of the service

Old school. Never boring.
