Loyalty Card hidden T&Cs deception.
Ive been going to Kingman Butchers for years as they are local and usually it is a most pleasant experience to do so. However, after accumulating a fully stamped Loyalty Card (180 spent = 20 deduction off next purchase), their attitude was somewhat awkward and rude to say the least. The head butcher raised his voice and started to explain the hidden T&Cs to me that were never explained or highlighted on the Loyalty Card in the first place and in front of other customers that were just as surprised and shocked as I was at his attitude.

I have used this butchers a few time since recently moving to Amesbury . Never been disappointed . Popped in on Thursday to treat me and hubby at home for new year as covid had ruined our plans. Opted for the beef Wellington. Was offered sound advice on timings and had a little chat with the amazingly friendly team. They were delicious . Will definitely be back. Many thanks.

In past years Ive been to a number of butchers in and around Salisbury and also South West London and genuinely, I have never come across some a friendly, amenable, and likeable butchers that doesnt just do great product but also great service too. My daughter and I visit here weekly and couldnt be greeted and treated so well! An excellent selection of locally sourced, well treated meats and poultry - but also excellent flavour. Not just good meat, but also cheese, eggs, and fresh local milk to pour from the tap.. as well as other exciting local products (honey, jams, condiments, etc
