Staff is always friendly, and eager to assist. Their products are local farms and that comes through in the flavor. Breakfast burritos are delicious, meats are fantastic, beef sticks and summer sausage are average. Pot pies are a must try! Love the American flag out front!

Unbelievable butcher shop. I have been visiting all of the butcher shps in about a 50 miles radius of Annandale. Everything has been soso with the exception of Colburns Grocery Store (well worth going there). This meat market has surpassed the meat markets I have gone to. Not only do they have a great selection of quality meats, their brats are the best yet. While you are there, take time to grab a bite to eat, you won't be sorry. This is definitely my new go to!!!

What a local GEM! Great assortment of meats. Fresh, smoked, and THE BEST JERKY & SUMMER SAUSAGE! I got my fresh, local (raised in Mayer!) turkey there for Thanksgiving, it was AMAZING! There is also a great specialty grocery selection, I am always pleasantly surprised by the carefully curated selection of goodies and accutrimants! Cathy runs daily lunch specials, the Rubin is Top-Notch!

This is an honest to goodness butcher shop! You can get pretty much anything here and it's absolutely fantastic. They have award-winning bacon. Everything I have purchased there was fantastic. I bought a pork butt here and smoked it on our grill and it was absolutely amazing! This is truly good food without all the fillers that you would get in a regular grocery store. 100% recommend coming here and buying your beef and steaks and bacon. They also have a deli kind of where you can order their food of the day and eat it at their tables inside or out on there mini patio deck and front of the store. 100% recommend coming here and I promise you'll be back

Decided to give it a go after a recommendation. Nice little place. Good variety of fresh cuts, brats, jerky, sausages, deli items, as well as a frozen section. Jerky is excellent, I shoveled several pieces in on the drive home. Steaks go on the grill tomorrow, they look wonderful. Prices are reasonable, friendly staff and the location is easy to find. Definitely worth a shot.

What an amazing spot! Serendipity brought me to it last weekend (7/5/25), when I pulled into Kwik-Trip after visiting some family farther west and noticed the deli sign. We went in pretty close to closing time, and the staff was super friendly and helpful, giving me a little grace as I kept making more and more small purchases and was kind of doing my own thing out of order. We got a couple delicious (and huge!) sandwiches for just under ten bucks each that would have been $15-$18+ each in the metro. I got a bunch of other stuff, too, including their deli salads and some other foods, all of which were excellent. Their curated selection is amazing, and I can't wait to return to stock up on some meats and more. the jerky selection alone is crazy intriguing. I live in one of the twin cities, but I grew up in the western burbs and still make my way out there relatively frequently. Somehow I never knew about this place, and I'm truly bummed about that, but it's not too late to make up for it. I'll stop by any time I'm out that way, or even make special trips out. Do not miss this!

These guys make a far superior product versus their competition with al ot of their selections. For example; the ham steaks are awesome. There's no excess water, preservatives, or salt content and you can taste and see the difference. The steaks and brats are always fresh and there's a wide variety of each to choose from. They have a great sandwich selection, and there's a daily lunch option too. The staff is great. And " IF " you have a question about something?? Ask Them,...they are highly receptive.

Food was really solid. Got the French onion roast beef, but one of the staff members behind the deli was a little rude when I never heard my number called. Hurt the experience slightly.

Honestly can not find a better full service meat market. They offer prime cuts of beef, their ground hamburger is delicious, have really tasty smoked salmon and some of the finest summer sausage we have ever tasted.

OMG. What a morning burrito. Its not a cheap burrito but man was it a fantastic start to the day. Shop has so many things. I got gifts for everyone. Well worth the stop for treats or the next cookout.

I love this place. I stop here at least once a week. I've never been disappointed with any of the meats, deli, veggies, or frozen foods I've bought there. They have great lunches every day, and their breakfast burritos on the weekends are …

Cathy Mackenthun’s Meats & Deli is hands down the best place around the Lake Minnetonka / St. Bonifacius area to grab any cut of meat you can imagine — and the quality is absolutely unmatched. Whether you're planning a big grill-out or just …

Raced here to get some Memorial Day Weekend supplies before they closed at 7pm. Door was locked at 6:57pm and staff wouldn’t look at me. I’ll go to Von Hanson’s next time

They have everything and we usually buy everything! Braunschweiger, hamburger, sausage, steaks and I can't even remember what else we purchased. Oh yeah - some deli stuff. Yum!

I've heard a lot about this little meat market since moving back to the Metro area. When I was requested to pay a visit, I thought "What the heck." Of course, my wife checked it out first and brought home some thick cut smoked Pork Chops. …
