Chapman & Son

I read recently that well known Retail Superstore had won an appeal against its proposal to build a Local Store where the car showroom was, despite protests that the One Stop Store and this butchers were adequate providers. Chapman stated they would close if this happened.

A very friendly family-​run business (I think this is the 6^th generation, and the proprietor’s son does actually work here), this butcher is the kind of place people need to visit more to remind themselves what they don’t get when they buy meat at a supermarket.
The only reason this doesn’t get a full 5-​star review is because they’re not as adventurous in their offerings as an independent butcher could be (e.g. there’s no jelly in their home-​made pork pies, they don’t supply giblets with their chicken, no mutton is available). Yes, they’re following the wishes of the clientele, but I also wish they would do more to educate their customers, because I think there’s a lot of trust in them from their loyal customer base.
