Sanagan's butcher shop is one of the best around. Their customer service is top-notch. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic about giving advice. The products are also very good quality, including the prepared meats. This is a very highly recommended butcher shop.
So many delicious options. We got wagyu beef and it was expensive AF but honestly amazingly good. A good alternative to St Lawrence Market (because of SLM shit hours). I would go back and try more options, I like their take a number system.

I picked up a frozen tourtiere for Christmas eve. It was easy to bake and absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly helpful and I'm really looking forward to checking out some of their other offerings, including other pies and cassoulet. Can't wait to visit again.

I was out and about in Kensington Market on Sunday to pick up a bunch of different items for Mother's Day dinner. Stepped into Sanagan's on a whim and picked up the some of the biggest, juiciest and appropriately spiced pork sausages. Fair price point and great customer service--these guys know their meat.

I feel like I am going back in time when I walk into Sanagan's. The strangely familiar smell, the sawdust on the floor and actual animals in the display cases are rarely seen anymore in today's plastic wrapped meat-counters. I love the attention I get when I visit them, and have ben happy with the product so far.

Sanagans is a staple in Kensington and rightfully so! Their selections are great and reasonably priced. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and there are always a few people working so I never have to wait in line. I love stopping in here to peruse and always leave with something great.

The best butcher's place I've ever stepped into. This place has everything you need. Fresh, delicious, mostly organic! They also have a food bar that serves chicken, fries, and the likes. They have a few tables for you to sit and enjoy. Bit pricey but come here for meat to make a nice home cooked meal.

Sanagan's offers quality products and super informed service. No idea how to prep something? Just ask, and they'll tell you everything you need to know. They also offer amazing prepared foods, spices / seasonings / brines etc, and an awesome lunch selection (get the Sunday Roast - so good)

I purchased lamb sausages and Piri Piri chicken drumsticks.The sausages were incredibly fatty. I cooked a pound of them and ended up with 1 cup of orange fat.The chicken was not delicious and had a slimy mouthfeel.The staff was pleasant but the quality is not great. I won't be back.
