Star of the North is one of those old fashioned style butchers that are getting rarer and rarer in Perth. They have a huge range of meats. Of course they have all the typical things steak, sausages, roasts, chicken breasts and more. What makes them stand out is they also have all the extras that are not always easy to find, such as haggis, quail, rabbit and goat. On Saturdays it is really popular and they have about a half a dozen staff who are flat out serving. It is worth a few minutes wait. The quality is high, the prices are competitive to the big supermarkets(if not better) and my single friends enjoy the easy on the eye young men that tend to work here.

Star Of The North is a rather elaborate name for a butcher — whoever named the place had a literary flair. It is also an excellent butcher, featuring great cuts of meat at very fair prices. Star Of The North features some meat that is not often found in other places, such as quail, rabbit, goat and crocodile tail. They also have a variety of haggis and black pudding to choose from, alongside more pedestrian cuts of beef, lamb, chicken and turkey. Around the side are pet food supplies. A bag of pet mince is about $ 3, and a bag of raw meaty bones costs about $ 1.50 — which is plenty to get Fido through a week. Star Of The North is a great butcher with friendly staff, and is highly recommended if you are looking for a quality cut of meat.

Now I stopped eating meat for a few years ago for a number of reasons, but prior to that this would be my choice of butchers. The meat is nicer and fresher than that of the supermarkets and the shop looks clean. My family still go here and have been for years, they say that they sell the best fillet steak and chicken breasts. Not chewy or fatty bits, and a rich flavour. For me my favourite part about it is the staff, all young and some dashingly handsome and all super friendly. They are really happy to help if you have any questions, or just a general chat is always had. A really nice place to buy from, the service is really personal and all round enjoyable.
