Delivery is excellent and most of the products I have bought are top quality. However, I was initially drawn by their high welfare 81 day chickens. They're not cheap at £20 each. Having had three, the... Ver mais

The meter is superb and their sausages, particularly the highly flavored ones are beyond divine. Extremely good quality all the way around.

Good range of products
Good range of products, and when you order the delivery date is clearly stated. Meat packed in a well insulated box with reusable ice packs as a bonus. Will definitely use again!

Great quality meat
Great quality meat. I've been using Swaledale for a while. Definitely recommend. Unfortunately I can't buy from them as often as I wish, it's getting to expensive but I guess everything is.

Thanks so much for your review, Robert! We're delighted you took the time to share your feedback.
We completely understand your comment about pricing. Beef prices across the UK have risen sharply in recent years - according to the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), retail beef prices are now around 50% higher than they were in early 2021. These increases have affected the entire sector, including supermarkets, as farm-gate and processing costs continue to climb. Like everyone else, we’ve had to raise prices to reflect those realities whilst staying committed to working only with small, independent farms and native-breed herds raised on pasture.
We’re grateful that you notice the quality and care that go into every order. It means a great deal to our team and to the farmers who make Swaledale possible.
Trying something different
I like to try something different with each order along with usual favourites. Yesterday I cooked 2kg of salt beef. It is absolutely delicious and super value.

Premium product but poor service
Ahead of a reunion of friends I ordered a large porchetta from Swaledale on 3rd October. I much prefer to cook meat that has not been frozen and their products are premium (quality and price). Where a company sells a premium product it is a reasonable expectation that the customer service will match that.
I ordered this joint for delivery 24 hours ahead of when it was needed leaving a bit of contingency time.
Swaledale became aware a few days before this order was due for despatch that they had a transportation issue (strike by drivers in their chosen provider). It is not their fault that there was a strike, but it is their responsibility to ensure service recovery. Instead of following what I would hope would be a well considered contingency plan and immediately contracting another company to get this food to us on time, they kept going with their contractor and crossed their fingers.
The joint did not arrive on the day booked for delivery and one day later, on the day of the event, with no contact from Swaledale, I spoke to the distribution centre for the delivery company and was given weak reassurances. By 4pm it was clear that we would be let down.
Swaledale is an online business selling fresh meat. That should necessitate that they retain the ability to respond to transport and delivery issues in an agile way. This style of contingency may involve a little bit of extra cost - but this is not a cheap product. Having these measures in place is how you keep customers.
The other way you keep customers is by acknowledging and responding to complaints. I made reasonable complaint to you a week ago and have heard nothing.
All in all, a very disappointing set of outcomes for a customer of many years.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I completely understand how disappointing it must have been for your order not to arrive on the day expected, especially when you had planned it for a special occasion.
Your parcel was due for delivery on Thursday 9 October and, unfortunately, was caught up in the recent DPD disruption. This was not an official strike by DPD employees but a refusal of service by self-employed drivers, and there was no advance communication from DPD about the issue. All parcels, including yours, left our building on Wednesday as planned, but were delayed once in DPD’s network.
Even DPD themselves were initially unsure of the knock-on effects, and it became clear on the Thursday that there was a growing backlog, estimated to take up to three days to clear. They assured us that perishables in the system are always prioritised, as DPD works with many fresh-food businesses.
We appreciate how frustrating this must have been, but I hope you can understand that for perishable products we can’t simply switch couriers at short notice. Each courier must be fully approved for chilled, time-sensitive goods and integrated with our packing and tracking systems. In rare situations like this, we are unfortunately at the mercy of external disruption.
Every online business occasionally faces challenges from courier delays, severe weather, or vehicle breakdowns, but we do everything possible to minimise the impact on our customers. Your feedback is important and will help us strengthen our contingency planning where possible.
Thank you again for your understanding and for your continued support of Swaledale.
Outstanding on all counts!
The product I ordered for my son was top quality and the customer service was outstanding. I will shop here again!

They do not post negative reviews
Got 2 bad cured ox tongues from them, threw them in trash, put I star review for that specific item, guess what - that review still not live on their site, pretty sure it will be never. And I was wondering - why there only five/four stars reviews on their web site, not a miracle when you block all negative experience reviews.

We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed with your order and that you feel your review wasn’t published.
Reviews on our website are managed independently by Reviews.io, who use automated moderation filters.
Occasionally these hide genuine reviews in error, and we don’t have direct control over that process.
We’ve had no contact from you regarding your order, but we’d really like to understand what went wrong.
It’s also worth noting that it would be highly unlikely for one of our cured products to spoil, as the process is specifically designed to preserve the meat safely.
Please do get in touch with us directly so we can look into this properly and resolve it for you.
Products arrived in excellent packaging - have yet to try the Rolled Venison but individual steaks delicious. Will definitely be back for more!
