Browns Traditional Butchers opened in Bath Street in July, with queues on its first day, as reported on this blog. Whenever I pass, there seem to be customers in the shop. We don’t eat much meat ourselves, so are not ideal customers, but the shop gives a friendly impression and seems to have built up good relationships with its customers.
On Saturday, the Town Crier told me he had just had his photograph taken outside the shop for its social media pages. I took a similar picture for this blog.
I was interested to read on the Browns website that Mr Brown served his apprenticeship with Hedges, the traditional butchers who left Abingdon a couple of years ago. So although Browns is a new shop in the town, there is a link with Abingdon’s previous butchers.
The shop offers a traditional range of fresh meat, with cuts prepared to suit customers’ requirements. Customers can also order online for collection or local delivery.
It is an attractive-looking shop, whether passing in the morning or late afternoon. I am sure most people in Abingdon are already familiar with the business, but for anyone who isn’t, here is the website: Browns Traditional Butchers
Its headline is: “Proper meat, from a proper butcher.”
