Acme Meat Market
ACME Meat Market, in business in Edmonton, Alberta since 1921 is as much a neighborhood hub as a place to pick up a succulent steak for the barbeque or a savory roast for Sunday Dinner. No longer a thing of the past! We take you back to the good old days were you can have your meat trimmed just the way you want it!

We cut our meat according to our customer's preferences. Do you want your steaks 1" or 2"? A BBQ size pork chop? Just let us know! You are what you eat. And with so many choices and ways to shop why not start with delicious, natural, free range and locally sourced meats. We know where our meat is from and how it is produced, guaranteeing only the freshest and highest quality products.
Services
A local hidden treasure nestled in South Edmonton's mature Ritchie neighbourhood, ACME Meat Market is the local butcher shop that you have been looking for. The rich sense of history at ACME Meat Market is being carried on by the Meyers, the only owner not in the Pheasy or Eldridge families since it was founded in 1921.
As a specialty meat market we provide a unique shopping experience for customers seeking top-quality products and exceptional customer service! We start by carrying an array of fresh, locally raised products. We continue to support our local farmers and ranchers by carrying wholesome, locally raised beef, pork, free-range chicken, lamb, free-range veal and more.

I love Acme. It was recommended to me 4 or 5 years ago. I have been a faithful customer ever since. The staff are very friendly polite and helpful. If you don’t see it in the case there’s a chance that they have some of what your looking for in the refrigerator. If not you can order and they’ll have it in a reasonable time. I don’t buy my meat anywhere else and I highly recommend this place to everyone. If you’re not getting your meat at Acme you’re not getting quality LOCAL meat.

Best butcher shop in the city, hands down!
From everyday cooking & Barbecuing to specialty cuts, this is where you need to shop. And if you're unsure about anything, Corey and his staff are so incredibly helpful, just ask.

First time not just grabbing a roast at the supermarket. It was a little intimidating going to a butcher when we didn't know exactly what we were looking for. So helpful! He prepped the roast in front of us and brought it out to decide on the size we needed. Got quite busy and I can see why. Customer service was definitely 5/5.

Ive been dying to try a standing rib roast on the BBQ for a while and I struck out at Costco and Fresons Bros. I heard of Acme online so I decided to try it. The service was excellent. The butcher explain to me the 2-3 bone serving size. It was cool to see them prep the cut right in front of you. I can't compare prices however I knew I was looking for a fairly price cut meat. If you're looking for freshness and quality I would highly recommend Acme. Also go early it bit busy fast!

I have both ordered a freezer pack from Acme meats and gone in to their shop in person to pick up items. Their customer service is amazing and the quality of their meats is outstanding. They are a local Edmonton butcher that has been around for many years. They are well versed and knowledgeable in all cuts of meats and they cater to families of all sizes including packaging for single people. I would highly recommend visiting their shop in the Richie market. You can also stop in and indulge in treats from Duchess Bake Shop and grab a coffee from Transcend while you're there. It's a perfect Saturday

High quality produce and friendly staff who will cut and prepare any cut of meat to the customers preference. On days when they are closed, you will often see the owner in scrubbing the place clean and setting up for the next day. The shop is spotless.

Very disappointed in the customer service. The young man who "helped" me was brash and pompous. With the pandemic, I completely understand that we are all not quite ourselves; however, his attitude towards me was unacceptable end I will continue telling all. My review is not for their products. With that said, I will not return because of a young man who acted like I was less of a person than him.

Great quality and such a friendly team! Everyone is knowledgeable, you can order in advance and the space is so clean! It's pretty wonderful to watch the butchering happen- definitely makes you appreciate what you're going to eat. The owner is also one of the best butchers in the world and is on Team Canada!

Had Rib Eye steaks from Acme for New Years! They were pricey (45$ for 2) but they were good sizes and of my gosh they tasted amazing! Will definitely be back! Jerky was super tasty too!

I remember going to Acme as a kid with my mom and hating every minute of it. Now, as an adult, that couldn't be further from the truth! Went to purchase some beef short ribs today as the last time I bought them at a regular grocery store, they were so fatty. The ones bought today were amazing!! Such good quality. My husband and I have bought chickens as we all steaks there before as well. It's in a cool building with Transcend Coffee and a brewery. Along with every type of meat you could think of, they also sell some spices and sauces. It's always interesting to see what they have

I'll start by saying there isn't anything negative I could ever say about this place. I was a tough sell to come here from a friend. He swore up and down that if you want met this is the place to visit. I started slow coming here, steaks and chicken. I eventually realized that I was receiving the best quality meat in the city. Now it's all my meat needs under one roof. The quality of meat is nothing short of outstanding! Now don't get me wrong for this quality of meat you will pay extra for it, not saying that much more but we're also not saying these are Costco

What can I say! I have always loved ACME Meat Market. Corey & Amanda are awesome. If there is something that you are looking for, then make sure you contact them through tweets or phone to ask. Sausage day is usually on Fridays so make sure to go on fridays to get your fill on fresh sausages.

I also love theses lamb chop steaks that Corey cuts up for me. So delicious! Here is the blog post I wrote about them back in 2012 and all the lovely meat you can get from them!

I love Acme Meat! The people that work here are fabulous, and the best place for beef! It's locally raised near Edmonton, and hormone free! Several different cuts of steak, short ribs, roasts, brisket (when you're lucky)... and chicken and pork too.

They also have a really great selection of local sauces and jams (that I can't enjoy none of at the present moment with this torturous elimination diet).

By the way, check-in here and you'll get a 10% of coupon! Woot woot!

I'd never been to Acme before because I don't live or work in the area. However, they were able to supply me with some quality pork fat for relatively cheap - I was able to render lots of beautiful, odorless white lard for confit-ing my pork belly and for other cooking needs in the future. I didn't pick up anything else this time but just by looking at the fresh meat in the case and in speaking to any of the employees it's obvious that a lot of love goes into what they do. I will definitely be back :)

P.S. They do take credit cards but with a minimum $10 order. They also have

I have been looking for a place like this were I can get fresh, organic meat and I'm happy to have found Acme! The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I picked up some Ribeye steaks that were simply the best I've ever seen. Once cooked they were simply delicious! Literally melted in my mouth good! I highly recommend this place and look forward to visiting them often this BBQ season & beyond.
Ps. All their products are local, which helps support the community!

Went Acme to get a pound of bacon and walked out with 3 lbs of delicious fresh, smoked locally bacon. Why 3 lbs you say? Because it was far more affordable than I thought it would be.
When I got to Acme I was greeted as soon as I walked in, and the place was bustling. They were grinding fresh ground beef, they cut my bacon fresh to order and told me how they get it smoked locally.
I also needed to get some sausage casing for making my own sausage. Corey the butcher stopped what he was doing and gave me advice on how to best use the casings and going the meat for my sausage. It was pretty awesome

I will never buy meat anywhere else ever again, this place has the most freshest stuff I've ever seen, it's amazing, wish it was my next door neighbour because I would be eating steak everyday. You can ask these guys for anything and they will most likely have it. Nothing bad to say, you dudes are great. All hail the glorious acme meat!!

One of my favourite things to do is browse the meat aisle at the local grocery store and snicker at the pale looking offerings that I used to buy. Then I go over to Acme, and the meats in their display case all have a much more vivid and fresh looking colour. You know without tasting it which one is going to be better.

Since I started going to Acme a couple years ago, I've really come to appreciate what getting to know your butcher can do for you. Corey and the rest of the staff are always ready to help answer any questions about what cuts are best for what type of preparation, and can custom
