About The Classic Butcher

A butcher in Havelock North, Hawke's Bay, at 4 Joll Road, that is known for its meat box subscriptions. Boxes are packed in Hawke's Bay and shipped chilled across the North Island. The business says it has more than 25 years of butchery experience. Its range includes handcrafted cuts, sausages and patties made in-house, chicken from Turks Poultry in Foxton, and pork, lamb and beef collections. It also sells a pantry range. The website describes the sausages as award-winning.

Subscriptions can be weekly or monthly, and they can be paused, cancelled or changed through a customer portal. Each delivery can be skipped or rescheduled. Shoppers can also order online and collect. Free shipping applies to orders over $150. The shop is closed on Sundays, and the business attends the Hawke's Bay Farmers' Market on Sunday mornings. We hear the business has been entered in a Napier City Council People's Choice Award, which is decided by public vote.
