A Brief History of C & G Starkey
C & G Starkey’s have been established since 1981, serving the village people of Sherburn-in-Elmet, North Yorkshire and the surrounding areas.
Currently, three generations of Starkey work within the family business and both the owners and staff strive to maintain a traditional butchers shop atmosphere. The warm and friendly service that we provide, along with lots of lighthearted banter, is something we take pride in. Time is taken to get to know customers on a personal level and we will always try to meet any of our customer’s requests.
Guild of Q
In the year 2000, C & G Starkey’s became members of the Guild of Q, passing their annual assessments with top marks. It is said that customers who visit Guild of Q butchers are shopping at Britain’s best butchers, each of which are committed to unsurpassed quality, exciting new ideas on products, shop layout and customer service.
The level of service we deliver was recognized in 2006 when Starkey’s won the award for ‘Outstanding Customer Service’ between local businesses in the Selby area.
Local Produce
Starkey’s offer a wide range of products that are all sourced from local providers, one of which is Ledston Estate - located just 3 miles away from the shop.
The business has won numerous awards over the years for their pork pies and various other products - even having a recommendation in ‘Clarissa’s cookbook’ and Rick Steins ‘Food Heroes’.
