“The box arrived within fifteen minutes of the time specified. The meat was very well protected and packaged. Thank you for the booklet of tips and recipes. I used my own recipe for jugged hare and with slow cooking the meat emerged very tender and the flavours were rich and succulent. As recommended, warming it up the following day simply added to the flavour. Excellent quality and good service. I shall certainly use this company again.”
“I would like to thank the wild meat company for providing me with the excellent produce i receive over the Christmas period, and my order that was delivered last Friday 13th. First class, fresh, tasty well packed and excellent service. Regards Eric.”
“Great meat! Bought various from boar to pheasants, goat. Somehow the pheasants are always better than the ones I get at the local butcher. Meat packaged well.”
“Whilst the quality of meat was good, my order arrived 24 hours later than planned & thankfully being winter, the order was still cool when it arrived. I rang The Wild Meat Co to say it was being delivered 24 hours late & needed it for the date given so had to change my menu which was frustrating. Never heard back from the company having left my message.”
I am sorry that your meat was delayed and that you did not get a response to your answerphone message. Emails are usually more reliable for contacting us out of office hours, but there was not much we could have done if the courier is delayed.

If a potential delay would be an issue for you and you would prefer to amend or cancel your order, please call us ASAP on 01728 687627."
We also advise on our website to order your meat the day before you need it to allow for any delays.

“The Wild Meat Company may be small but they are big on quality, choice, communication, support and delivery. I had excellent responses from Annabel and Robert (so far), with some positive suggestions.
The parcel arrived earlier than expected, the box is very sturdy with the cool bags and wool insulation keeping everything in place and cool.
The meat so far has been delicious. I cooked our wild boar haunch steaks with garlic, mushrooms and Marsala. I rested the meat while making the sauce and it was not only delicious but really tender too. It's probably going to be boar ragu next...
I'm intending to use the wool from the packaging to line my hanging baskets, assuming the weather does finally pick up! (Freezing February at the mo).”
“Can't fault the produce I have received from you, and well organised delivery service. A fabulous selection of top quality meats, poultry and particularly game.”
“Hi, the meat I bought was excellently packaged, well chilled and in good condition. Have had the pheasant so far excellent. You maybe could consider adding more cooking suggestions. Maybe an A4 insert into the box covering all aspects of your products. Have ordered before And will order again excellent tasting products… And that’s not down to you! It’s down to the animals LOL. Thank you will order again take care.”
“I have placed a few orders from the Wild Meat Company and have never been disappointed. As well as the quality produce, I appreciate being able to nominate the day of delivery.
With game meat becoming vanishingly scarce in supermarkets and many high street butchers, a delivery service like this is very much appreciated.”
“The quality of the meat received is first class, the deliveries are on time on the day I ask for & the packaging is more than suitable for the purpose.
As an ex-butcher I am very particular with the meat I purchase & I can honestly say I've had no reason for concern, I would reccomend The Wild Meat Company.”
“Excellent quality meat, shipped promptly in recyclable refrigerated packaging. Highly recommended, especially for those hard to come by meats (for city dwellers, anyway) like woodcock.”
“Great products, packaged well.
So far, I have had a pheasant breast and a chicken thigh. Both delicious!
The chicken tasted really good, 1 had forgotten what chicken was supposed to taste like!
No more supermarket meat for me!”
