Proper meat since 1856
Althams Butchers was established in 1856 by Thomas Altham, who opened our family’s first shop on Queen Street, Morecambe.
Our dedication to ensure quality produce and service throughout the centuries has led Althams to become one of the oldest and largest, independent family-owned butchers in the country.
Today, based from our state of the art butchery in Morecambe, we supply only the best quality meat to hotels and restaurants in the UK, as well as offering home delivery via our online butchers shop.
“I had another delivery today from Althams butchers. Absolutely my favourite go-to place for meat! The steaks are amazing and all the meat we have had has been top quality and very tasty. Very nicely packaged on delivery. Highly recommend.”
