Butchers and farm shops in and around Bristol: three places to explore

A local food shop in Bristol can mean a quick stop at a butcher’s counter, picking up vegetables and deli food in Easton, or planning a trip out to a countryside farm shop. These three options serve different shopping needs. Their own websites were checked on 11 September 2026.

Clifton Village Butchers: a counter in the heart of Clifton

Clifton Village Butchers lists its address as 12 The Mall, Clifton Village, Bristol, BS8 4DR. Its range includes beef, lamb, pork, poultry, sausages and burgers, alongside South African products such as biltong and boerewors. If you are shopping in Clifton and want to ask about a particular cut, this is one option to explore. [1] [2]

The business says most of its products come from local farmers. Ask about the origin of the particular meat you choose. Check the contact page for current opening arrangements or call 0117 9737348 before making a special journey; its site also carries a seasonal closure notice.

The Public Market: a farm shop and deli in Easton

The Public Market is on Mivart Street, Bristol, BS5 6JF. It describes itself as a farm shop, deli and kitchen, offering fruit and vegetables, Somerset cheeses and food prepared for its deli counter. This is a different kind of stop from a dedicated butcher: useful to explore when you want ingredients and something ready to eat in the same visit. [3]

Its website describes relationships with nearby farms and producers. Ask which items are local and what is available that day. The listed telephone number is 0117 987 0698; use the official site to check opening details before visiting.

Farrington’s: a countryside farm shop at Farrington Gurney

Farrington’s Farm Shop is at Farrington Gurney, BS39 6UB, outside Bristol itself. Its website lists grocery staples, fresh produce and a deli, and says the farm grows potatoes sold in the shop. Treat this as a planned countryside visit rather than a Bristol city-centre stop. [4]

Tunley Farm Butchers operates the butchery there. Farrington’s describes a fresh meat counter, plus packaged fresh and frozen meat in the farm shop. For a particular cut or larger order, contact the butchery on 01761 452266, option 4, and check the current arrangements directly. [5]

Which option fits your week?

For a conversation at a dedicated butcher’s counter while in Clifton, look at Clifton Village Butchers. For a mix of produce and deli food in Easton, explore The Public Market. For a farm-shop visit outside the city with a butchery on site, look at Farrington’s. Choose around where you already travel and what you actually need.

Before leaving home, check opening hours and any access or parking information that matters to you. Ask about a specific product before travelling especially for it. Compare pack sizes and price, and plan how to transport chilled purchases using the seller’s advice.
