I have been buying meat at this butcher for over 30 years. Great quality, great prices, great service. You must try one of their many types of in house made sausages! But in reality, you will enjoy anything you decide on. Can't be beat.

What an amazing deli/butcher shop. The selection is phenomenal and everything is so fresh. If you haven't checked this place out, you must try it out. The staff is super friendly and even though there was a huge line up when we went, they got us in and out of there in no time. Will hands down be back. You have to try their homemade pepperoni as it was soooo good!

Great friendly service. Terrific steaks and sausage. Our go to butcher. A bit off the beaten path with quirky hours makes it that much more fun.

This place is always busy, which attests to the great quality and good prices that they have. The staff is always friendly and helpful and get your orders done quickly and professionally. They have the best sausage rolls, scotch eggs, sausages, pepperoni and meats anywhere. The store is always clean, neat, tidy, and pleasant smelling, and has plenty of parking.

Glenwood meats almost never disappoints. Despite the huge crowds they manage things very well, staff are courteous and friendly which leads us to believe they are also treated well. Glenwood has exceptional product at a fair price, our only minor issue we find is the chicken is definitely pricier than other options. We do however understand a quality product demands a higher price from the supplier as well. The beef, steak, sausage and when we do splurge for the chicken is always the best available in the Westshore for certain if not all of Victoria. We are very lucky to live close to the store, we visit a few times a month.

This is truly a fantastic meat market and one of the few private ones remaining.
Most have succumbed to the larger grocery chains
They feature about every cut of meat you could wish for. Their meat is also
top quality. I find the order process and the friendly staff are very efficient.
You can also phone in your order ahead of time for pick-up. Keep up the good
work and I hope they stay in business for years to come.

I admit I was a little surprised to see Glenwood Meats listed as a “thing to do” in Victoria (it’s actually located in Langford, not Victoria) because it’s not really a tourist attraction; rather, it’s simply a butcher shop. Granted, it’s a very GOOD butcher shop with an amazing selection and helpful employees, but it’s still just, well, a butcher shop! That point out of the way, let me comment on Glenwood Meats a bit further.
As others have pointed out, this place is home to “Superior [meat and poultry] Products” and the prices are indeed very good – especially for the quality you get. My partner and I have been here a number of times over the last few years and we’ve never been disappointed with our purchases. The wieners have been of good quality; the chicken wings are phenomenal, with a few nice flavours to choose from; the house-made pepperoni sticks are delicious; and the assorted fruit pies are to die for! All of the meats are attractively laid out and clearly displayed, making the selection process a little easier (so many meats, so little time!). Glenwood is just an all-around good place . . . for meat!
One word of warning, though: This place is always very busy, so it can get a bit hectic at times but, really, that’s to be expected because Glenwood produces quality products. If they produced mediocrity then it would empty all the time and that’s far worse than being busy!

Sorry to say that we are leaving the Victoria area and will be moving back to the mainland. However we did stock up on lot's of tasty sausages/ bacon/ meat balls/ 7-layer dip to take home. Best meat store/ butcher I have ever had in my 65 yrs.
