Never disappointed with Donald Russell

Never disappointed with Donald Russell, the quality of the meat is second to none. Have stopped buying my meat from the butchers. There pies, quiches, sausages and ready meals are fantastic. Would highly recommend the madras curry and rice. There afters are delicious and are just right for one person. You can't go wrong with this company. Also they deliver on time and give you a choice with packaging.

Great choice of offers

Great choice of offers, filled the freezer again. Always have a selection of steaks ready for a feed! Now i have found out their sliced sausage (both Beef and Pork) are the best on Mainland scotland! also very keen on the Lamb chops and thick Pork loin chops. Top quality and they are not a supermarket!

Too many one-off limited time offers

Would like to purchase offers in bulk not as daily purchases as £10 delivery cost negates any savings. As a regular customer I appreciate the quality of the food but daily 24 hour offers are not viable.

Quality meat and timely delivery

I usually take advantage of the offers DR send out and have never been let down by the excellent quality of the meat and fish and the timely delivery, and always expertly packaged.

Need a bigger freezer

Having ordered from Donald Russell before we know the quality is excellent. The pies are deep filled, the steak (& kidney pie) had just the right amount of kidney it wasn't dominating the flavour - or offending my husband! The steaks are tender and tasty, treated ourselves to Cote de Boeuf Salt Aged, delicious. Not fussy for the vintage cheese pigs in blankets, stick to the normal version that are aaaamazing. Still to have the rabbit.

Company is very reliable

Company is very reliable. Orders are always correct and delivered promptly They now seem to be concentrating on ready meals as opposed to fresh meat and fish. The ready meals I have had have always been good quality

Very poor website

Very poor, unmanageable website, which today made it impossible to view all DR products. Unclear, in some cases, whether the unit price applies to one off, or a pair of items. Meat products good quality, except the sausages which are vastly overpriced and ordinary, when compared to supermarket items.

Have used Donald Russell for a while now. Probably since the lockdown. Always lovely meat. From succulent steaks to lovely tender beef rib trim and mince. Keep up your good work. Your meat is wonderful

Superb meat

Having failed to send my order on line I telephoned my order through, the lady who took my order could not have been more helpful and when it arrived it was as usual superb quality meat. I would not hesitate to recommend Donald Russell - you will never be disappointed.
