Wouldn’t buy my meat products from anywhere else. During first lockdown last year started using Puddledub home delivery and was so impressed with the quality of their products and service that I no longer buy supermarket meat. Fantastic value for money and a first class service. Great to support a local business 👍

Had a small gathering at the weekend and ordered whole roast ham , lamb and beef and bacon for the Sunday morning rolls. To say it was all delicious is a massive understatement. Every person complimented the meat!! It was a weight off my shoulders also, that when I asked I was told that the meat could all be cooked by yourselves too and delivered on a date which suited ,just made it more tasty! THANK YOU for being so accommodating. I will definitely order again!!

Our first order arrived this morning and all I can say is oh wow! 🤩 Been after some proper lorne sausages that are gluten free for ages and by chance came across your website. The gluten free options you offer are amazing, and everything we've ordered has come lovely and fresh. Thank you ever so much, and look forward to ordering from you again soon.

I ordered a medium gluten free steak pie for Christmas on a certain day to be picked up. the 23rd. The man wrote it in the diary. Went in to get it today and the man said they don't do them. no apologies. The same man who took my order! luckily they had 2 small gluten free steak pies in the freezer we can take home. This is for Christmas day and… because we are gluten free would we have got one else where 2 days before? I just felt so silly going in and the man didn't even care. The young lad did so thank you for that. went out your way to look for us.
