    Let me start by saying that John’s Meat Shop has some extremely fresh products. I called ahead to see what kind of sandwiches they offered and John recommended I have their chicken cutlet sandwich. This sandwich was absolutely delicious. The bread bun was amazingly fresh and the roasted red peppers and spread were flavourful with a nice hint of spice. I genuinely really enjoyed this sandwich and could not even eat the whole thing! For $9 it does not get better than that. They only accept cash or cheque! Amazing customer service, fresh meats,sauces, and cheese and extremely fair prices. I will definitely be going back to try the meatball sub and some in-house made fresh daily bolognese sauce. Thank you for a lovely lunch!

    By far the best meatballs and sauce around. The prizes are reasonable and the eggplant and chicken parmesan are so delicious, highly recommend this to everyone

    Very high quality meats including gluten free options. The meat is freshly cut upon your request, proving that no preservatives are used. The very friendly staff will ask you exactly what cut you are looking for, and will show it to you before your purchase. If the meat is not available, they will order it for you and will have it on location when you would like it. Definitely try the meatballs as well, I highly recommend.

    Nice little store with friendly staff. Great if you want chicken or veal, but not much variety for a meat shop.

    Their homemade pasta sauce is the best. Worth the drive from niagara falls.

    We travelled 1 hour (each way) to go to John's Meat Shop thanks to the recommendation of a close family friend who lives in St. Catharines. Small shop with friendly staff. Most of their 'store made' items are not priced. As recommended we bought some sauce $3/500ml (also available with mushrooms $5 or sausage - price unknown), some meatballs (packaged in containers of 15 without sauce $10 or 6 in sauce $9.50). We thoroughly enjoyed their lasagna roll-ups, 6 for $8.50, along with some of their plain sauce for dinner last night. OMG!!! No wonder our friend recommended this place and now so do we WITHOUT HESITATION. My only negative is that they do not offer payment via debit/credit and only accept cash or cheque. Who does that, especially during a pandemic? Therefore only rated as 4 stars instead of 5. Nevertheless based on last evening's dinner we will definitely return with cash in hand :-) to try several of their other items.

    Greatest meatballs I’ve ever eaten - try them once and you’ll be hooked - tomato sauce is outstanding as well - just wonderful Italian food - spoiled me for any other!

    The BEST Italian sausage! We drive from Stoney Creek once a month to stock up! Beautiful Italian specialties, meats and cheeses! Great prices. You will not be disappointed!

    Best meatballs, don't waste my time to make my own any more because theirs are better. Fish on Fridays is the only kind not from a restaurant my family will eat, and they still prefer John's! Remember to bring cash
