Butcher's shop adds prestige to Worcester centre's new food hall
|
The new Blake’s Food Hall at St Peter’s Garden Centre,Worcester, was officially opened at a launch party last week, with a Checketts butcher’s shop among its key attractions. Special offers and free tasters of meat, cheese, wine and beer have been on the menu over the special launch week-end. The Checketts name has been associated with Worcestershire since 1902 when Thomas Green Checketts opened his butchers shop in Wyre Piddle. In 1925 the business moved to the current premises in Ombersley, where it continues to grow and diversify under fourth generation father-and-son team Phil and David Checketts. Checketts is committed to sourcing local, fresh and seasonal fare with great traceability across their butcher’s, deli, fishmongers and Coffee Shop, with an emphasis on quality produce. All of the meat in the centre’s Potting Shed Restaurant is also supplied by Checketts.
