Meat Collective is a specialty meat shop and online store at 342 Tanjong Katong Road, providing fine meats and dedicated service both in-store and online. The range covers beef, lamb, pork, poultry, fish, shellfish and crustaceans, along with ham, sausages and cold cuts, frozen soups and stocks, and thin-sliced cuts for shabu shabu and yakiniku.
Beyond proteins, the shop also stocks seasonings, dairy, dry goods and sauces, plus cocktails, wine and craft beers, custom burger blends made to order, and gift cards for any occasion.
Orders can be shopped online with delivery across Singapore using a cold truck to maintain the cold chain, or picked up in person at the Tanjong Katong Road store. Given the nature of fresh meat, final pricing is confirmed after weighing rather than charged upfront, with payment settled via PayNow or cash on delivery.
On Tanjong Katong Road, Meat Collective operates as both a physical shop and an online store, built around the idea of providing fine meats with dedicated service, whether you're browsing in person or ordering from home.
The shop's core offering spans the usual butcher categories — beef, lamb, pork and poultry — alongside fish, shells and crustaceans, and a broader 'Other Proteins' category for anything outside the standard cuts. For those after deli-style options rather than raw cuts, there's also a dedicated range of ham, sausages and cold cuts.
A couple of categories point to more specific cooking styles: frozen soups and stocks for anyone wanting a ready-made base, and thin-sliced meats prepared specifically for shabu shabu and yakiniku, both popular hot-pot and grill styles that need a particular cut and thickness to work properly.
Meat Collective doesn't stop at protein. The store also carries seasonings, dairy, dry goods and sauces to round out a meal, plus a range of cocktails, wine and craft beers for anyone wanting to pair their cooking with a drink. For those who like to build their own patties, Custom Burger Blends are made to order, and gift cards are available for anyone who'd rather let someone else pick their own cuts.
Ordering online comes with a few specifics worth knowing. Deliveries above $150 are complimentary, while orders below that threshold carry a $15 delivery fee. Most orders arrive within 1 business day of placement, generally scheduled between 10:30am and 6pm.
Because Meat Collective uses a cold truck to maintain the cold chain across the island, delivery works differently to single-trip services like Grab or Food Panda — routes are planned rather than instant, which can occasionally mean a delivery running later than planned if traffic conditions are difficult. Anyone in a hurry can instead arrange in-store pickup directly with their driver.
Since meat and seafood are sold by weight, Meat Collective doesn't take payment upfront — product weights can vary slightly from what's ordered, so the final amount is confirmed and communicated by message, SMS, email or phone before dispatch. Once that's settled, payment can be made via PayNow to the company's UEN, or in cash on delivery. A 'processing email' after ordering serves as a second confirmation that the order is being handled.
For anyone dropping by the Tanjong Katong Road shop directly, it's worth noting that the public carpark that used to sit opposite the store is no longer operational. The recommended alternative is to park along Wilkinson Road or Branksome Road nearby.
Meat Collective is open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 7pm, and Sunday and public holidays from 10am to 5pm — long enough hours to fit a shop either on the way home or as part of a weekend grocery run, whether you're stocking up on everyday cuts or picking up something specific like a custom burger blend or a round of shabu shabu meat for that evening's dinner.
