Fantastic butcher that has been around for decades. This dying breed of independent butchers reflects the knowledge and experience in a craft. The meats are super fresh and well trimmed. They carry a wide array of cuts, meats (lamb, beef, pork, chicken, turkey, etc.) and youll be just as happy popping in to find a quick protein for dinner as you are selecting a perfect roast for a special occasion. They have great specials listed on paper ads on the windows and you can come here to pick up your Thanksgiving Dietsel turkey (order in advance!). Ver Brugge has a small selection of fresh seafood in the back--look out for dungeness crab in season. They also sell roast Rocky Jr. chickens, and occasionally have yesterdays leftover chickens in the fridge for half off if you are lucky. There is a small cheese/dairy case on the side. Their sausages are indeed great. Service is a dream.

If you want to buy your meat from a REAL butcher get yourself down to Ver Brugge - great selection, great service and you can rely on the quality of everything they sell. Best thing about this place is the staff - people who really know their trade and are happy to share their knowledge so you can have a great meal. Pick a number, wait your turn and take in the experience!

Rockridge is so lucky to have Ver Brugge in our neighborhood. You dont find too many places like this anymore where you can not only find friendly staff who know your name, but also the best quality seafood and meats, including the house made sausages that our guests on our Rockridge Neighborhood Heritage food tour enjoy! Bon appetite!

I LOVE this shop. Its such a throwback to the old days of wonderful butcher shops. They have the best cuts, wonderful fish, and great trimmings, all at reasonable prices. The service is friendly and fantastic. Been going there for years, and I hope for years to come.

Have been going to Ver Brugge for >10 years. Trust them, value them. They are knowledgeable and willing to share. With the produce market and the wine shop on the same block, they complete my "Gourmet Trifecta."

Ver Brugge is my go to place for beautiful beef and chicken. The butchers are knowledgeable and very nice (they even cut up my lamb for kabobs) Go off hours when its less crazy.

Best meat in town and sushi grade tuna. Everybody knows me and my dogs. This is my go to spot for 10 + years.

Popular butcher shop. Usually a short wait for service. Real craft: bring game, they can make you sausages.
