🥩 SOME EXCITING NEWS FOR BRACKLEY! 🇮🇹💚
Following the news that Smith & Clay Butchers and Deli will be closing their Brackley shop on Saturday 19th September, we’re delighted to share that their wonderful meat will still have a home here in Brackley.
Brackley Kitchen Deli will be introducing a dedicated Smith & Clay meat counter, giving you the opportunity to continue picking up many of the quality cuts and favourites you’ve been used to buying locally.
For 20 years Smith & Clay Butchers and Deli have been part of Brackley High Street, championing traditional butchery, skilled craftsmanship and quality meat sourced from farmers they know.
When Margaret approached us about working together, it felt like a wonderful fit. At Brackley Kitchen, we share that same passion for great produce, independent businesses and knowing where our food comes from.
So alongside our Italian cheeses, charcuterie, fresh produce, breads, focaccia, homemade food and gelato, you’ll soon be able to pop into the deli and pick up quality butcher’s meat too.
And don’t worry — this isn’t us turning into a butcher’s shop! 😂🇮🇹
It’s simply another reason to shop locally and hopefully means one more part of Brackley’s independent food offering stays right here in the town.
We’ll be sharing more over the coming days about when the counter launches, what we’ll be stocking and how it will all work.
We can’t wait to welcome Smith & Clay Butchers and Deli customers through our doors — and, of course, introduce our lovely Brackley Kitchen customers to something new too.
Two independent businesses. One community. Great food. 💚
