  • Today we visited Upton's Of Basset in Southampton, and we did NOT expect to find what we did. This place has everything from a butchers to a deli bar, from a coffee shop to a place to learn knife skills and how to make sushi. This place does it all. The passion we found here was infectious, and the quality of everything we tried completely blew us away. Southampton you should be proud of this place
    Where should we go next?

      Ireland has great hot delis at almost every service station. May Greggs never taste Irish soil, too many bland chain brands in UK. Have to say their sausage rolls are boss though.

    I’m 27 and been a butcher since I was 13. I’ve worked all the way from the bottom to now being a full time beef boner. I would just like to say a massive Thankyou for showcasing a proper British butchers. People need to understand that a couple of quid extra in a butchers for a product you will remember means much more than putting a couple of quid in a supermarkets pocket. Thanks very much. I might need a trip to Southampton from Yorkshire now 😂

    My mate owns a butcher shop. To be fair, the extra couple of quid on a weekly shop is money well spent. The difference in the quality is so noticeable. During the pandemic, when meat was hard to get hold of, his business grew. People that had never been to a butcher before were amazed the meat wasn't wrapped in clingfilm. His business has grown, and the local butcher is gaining popularity again. Not just here, but nationwide.
    But the butcher in this video is another level again.
    I will be visiting just for the bacon butty.
    Top review yet again.
    Keep up the good work lads.

    Off the beaten track a nice find or should I say an exposure!! The weird thing I pass that roundabout very often yet never knew Upton's existed. I luv a decent butchers over crappy supermarket butchery. Seems we are similar in our tastes bud, a good bacon sarnie unbeatable, I always liked green back bacon from the butchers, proper butcher pork pie, pork chop with kidney left in, calves liver, all things you don't get other than in a good butcher shop.
    The caramel shortcake is a bonus and again one of my faves So, I will def visit this gaff soon that's a given. Keep up the good work matey.
