REVIEWS OF The Whole Beast IN Oak Bay

They have the best bacon!!!

Paul

If you like cured meat you gotta try this place. I've never been disappointed.

Aaron Hill

I love everything about this place and rarely buy cured meats anywhere else. I noticed one review on here complaining about their dry cured ribeye but I think the reviewer was in error because the Whole Beast doesn't sell steaks. Maybe he was talking about the butcher next door...the Village Butcher...which is also excellent.

Scott

I want to like this place, but the product and service does not deserve the price. While it is one of the only places to get iberico ham, nothing else is worthwhile. I've been cooking steak a long time, and was excited to try their dry aged ribeye; unfortunately it was dry and flavorless, certainly not worth the premium. To top it all off, the butcher here is rude and passive aggressive. The drive to Glenwood is worth every minute compared to this place.

An amazing place full of superior meats, much made locally but also premium product from around the world. The fuet is a hiking essential! Also, there are mainstay meats that are always there but also a varied selection that is seasonal or one offs. I am always surprised and delighted by the new flavors to try.

Mario Whitworth

Korean flavour meat chunks if die for.

Ben Hitchcock

Artisan curing and chacuterie at its best. Knowledgeable staff and wonderful flavours.

Amazing selection of pork products, they have things that are impossible to find anywhere else,... reasonable prices and great service. Their bbq pork on saturdays is also FANTASTIC. Literally can't think of anything that would make this place better... maybe Cheese parings? Oh wait, that's literally right next door.

Leica Nelson

INCREDIBLE curing, delicious flavours! Great customer service. First time buyer but will return often. The Regular pepperoni is good but the DRY PEPP gets 5 stars, perfectly dry & spicy. The Fennel salami Yes! and Red Wine Salami with Black Pepper even better. Just Go. You'll Love Everything. ???? #cured #meats #deli

I come here just for their smoked chorizo and rosemary bacon. It's ridiculous how flavourful they are!

Jenn Barber

These guys are awesome! Super friendly, and really care about the quality of what they're making. 10/10 every time

Joanne Drayton

Makes a great selection of cured meats - it's my go to stop when I'm making an appetizer plate or packing a hike picnic. My favourite snack is the coriander beef jerky, it's extra dry and reminds me of biltong.

justin engwer

Knowledgeable friendly staff. Great products.

Nikita Cyr

amazing product, rad staff, couldn't ask for anything more!

Caitlin Gaffney

Walked in unsure of what I wanted. The person working offered to put something together for me and asked for my suggested price point. He suggested a bit lower price since it was just a starter for a couple people and I was adding bread and cheese. I can’t make decisions to save my life and this was a great offer! I should really come here more often!

John Watson

Corey Pelan meets and exceeds expectations of what an owner operated business looks like. Thanks for your professionalism and taking care of me.
