Halal Bristol: halal butcher and Middle Eastern grocery with delivery across Bristol and Bath

Halal Bristol is a local family business operating in Bristol and Bath. It combines a halal butcher with a Middle Eastern grocery store, and offers home delivery every day between 2 and 10 pm. The company presents itself as an alternative that avoids the trip to the butcher or the supermarket shop, bringing certified meat and pantry products together in a single order.

Certified halal meat, cut to order

The meat — chicken, lamb and beef — is cut to the customer's preference on the morning of the delivery day. The site states that all meat products come from partner butchers with halal certification and are prepared according to hand-slaughter standards. The range includes cuts such as beef fillet, rib, premium sirloin, brisket, lamb chops, leg of lamb, lamb mince, beef mince, chicken thighs and wings, among others. The company states that the documentation proving certification is verified.

The catalogue organises part of the meat into prepared boxes to make buying easier. Featured options include:
