About
Sam the Butcher has been a fixture on Bondi Road since current owner Sam Diasinos took the reins in 1999, on a site that has been a butcher shop since 1946. It was one of the suburb's first fully organic meat retailers and remains known as a trailblazer of Bondi's health-conscious meat scene.
The shop sources organic and free-range beef, lamb, veal, poultry and pork from trusted farms across several states, with animal welfare and ethical farming front of mind. It's also the local go-to for exotic and game meats - wild boar, emu, crocodile, goose, camel and kangaroo - alongside house sausages and organic kitchen products. In-store shopping and online ordering with delivery are both available.
