Butcher's Shop of the Year Awards 2010

Parson's Nose - Finalist for the South of England

This year we have been nominated as finalists for Butcher of the Year Southern England Awards 2010.

Our little butcher empire of two shops has been recognised and applauded for all our hard work. Our vision to return to times gone by and provide fine quality free range meat, an expansive selection of cuts (many forgotten over time) together with a more traditional style customer service. A chance for you to look forward to a personal welcome from your butcher, friendly enquiries about your previous purchases and a good chat about this week's stock and what you fancy buying this time.

The awards ceremony was a glitzy event held at the Sheraton Park Lane Hotel in London. The Butcher's Shop of the Year Awards are renowned as the premier event for the UK butcher sector. They recognise excellence in craft butchery and winners enter an exclusive group representing the crème de la crème of British butchery.

Enjoying a three course meal and entertainment from comedian Patrick Monahan we were amongst some of the elite in our business. Our nerves quickened as our category finalists are called up for photographs and we make our way to the stage.

Although Parsons Nose was not to be this year's winner we are not feeling defeated. Our team are very proud to be one of the top three Butcher Shop of the Year Southern England voted by our peers, praise indeed. Inspired by the experience and desire to return to the awards again this year we endeavour to continue supplying the best quality meats and excellent customer service within our community doing a job that we just love to do. .
