Welcome to Godfreys

Our Company was founded by our Great Grandfather Frank Godfrey in 1905, who brought with him his already famous Lincolnshire Sausage recipe which is still celebrated and handmade on our premises today.
 
The pursuit of excellence

Frank originated the pursuit of excellence which still drives us today. Following that quest, Frank acquired the rights to graze his own livestock in nearby Clissold Park and would often be seen herding the animals down the High Street to our premises in Stoke Newington High Street.

His own standards of Premium Quality

Every week Frank would buy his own carefully selected livestock from Market Road to maintain his own standards of Premium Quality - and as a special treat at Christmas would always buy the Markets prize-winning beast for his customers.
 
Rich heritage of knowledge

Butchery skills already ran in the family for many generations previously. That long rich heritage of knowledge, experience and expertise has been passed down through generations of the Godfrey family.

The most demanding Chefs in Europe

By sourcing only Premium Quality, Free Range, additive-free, slowly matured Beef, Poultry, Lamb, Pork and making our own Award-winning Sausages, we continue to provide those traditional qualities to some of the most demanding Chefs in Europe.
 
Those principles have been followed through successive generations via our father Peter, and then to us - the three directly descended brothers, Jeremy, Christopher and Phillip. 
 

What We Do
 

Each of us has different areas of specialisation and it will often be one of us who has sourced, cut and prepared the meats that are freshly delivered to you

Perfectly prepared and presented

This allows complete control of the animals once they have left their farms- from ageing each one for the correct number of days - to ensuring each cut is perfectly prepared and presented - exactly to your specification.

​​​​​​​State of the Art Maturation rooms

For slow ageing of meat we have our own State of the Art Maturation rooms in the same premises where we prepare cuts and hand make our own Award winning Sausages.

The very best Premium Quality Meat and Poultry

Wherever possible we regularly visit most of the farms that provide our meat and poultry. We choose only the best breeds, slow-reared with consideration, entirely free of additives, and fed only on a natural diet.
