I've been dying to try real Japanese A5 Waygu. Well, they have it. AND ITS AN EXPERIENCE!!! It's expensive. But it's worth it to treat yourself every once and a while. I will absolutely recommend them to everyone I know. I also got a different kind of Waygu, not sure if it was American or Australian or what, and they said it was a #8 on the marbling scale. That steak was amazing as well. A5 for special occasions. The other for when I want a GOOD steak! They also had a bunch of exotic meats to try. Can't wait to go back and try some new things!!!

Alice and the team at Bowman's is so nice and very knowledgeable! I got a Delmonico steak for Fathers Day 3-4 years ago and not only was it the best steak I have ever had but made my life so much easier. My fathers only request for Christmas, Fathers Day, his Birthday is a Delmonico steak from Bowman's! Great people and great cuts of Meat!

The place is phenomenal. It's super accessible and very easy to get to. They have plenty of parking. Also, they have butcher that speak both languages English and Spanish. If you're not comfortable speaking the right terms in English, you can speak Spanish. The place is neat, clean, organized, super friendly , and has amazing customer service. They even put snack outside when the waiting list is long. I highly recommend it if you're close to the Aberdeen area in Hartford County.

Look up the exotic meats online to learn how delicious and good for you many of these meats are. Bowmans is a Harford County staple. I have eaten alligator and love it. Am looking forward to eating ostrich. We recently bought a special box combo. Looking forward to our next palate surprise. Thank you!!

The staff were very polite and helpful according to my wife. My wife bought some burgers from here. I had previously heard good things as well.I'm just going to say this, I'm an avid deer hunter. I know venison when I taste it. It had the clear somewhat gaminess, and texture to an extent but with beef mixed in. The giveaway was the flavor. I would say it was more like 25% venison, remaining was beef. There was a clear venison flavor mixed in with that hamburger.My school of thought goes to that they are either using the same equipment to cut venison and beef simultaneously, maybe not cleaning up as they should between different cuts (I want to give benefit of the doubt) or it's a shady operation and they are mixing venison with beef and misrepresenting it. Y'all can make your own judgements and determination based on that if you want. Just stating what I tasted. Pattie sausage also had the same flavor like it was mixed with venison or ground in the same equipment as without proper cleaning in between.That being said, my wife and I will most likely return to our previous butcher prior to trying this one.

Bowmans is the best around! Always an amazing selection with unique cuts of meat/seafood. They are a VERY busy butcher shop, so some patience is needed if you go in to get things (I feel they prefer the online ordering system as it gives them time to get everything you need). So many times I’ve walked in and if something is not in the fridge or freezer, they will go and vacuum seal it fresh for me! I just feel they go above and beyond and the customer service is always top notch. I normally speak with Sophie and she is always so sweet (all the ladies there are!). Highly, highly recommend!!
The best, the freshest. They also stock more unusual cuts like ostrich, alligator, boar, and venison. And the marbling in the wagyu looked amazing...

Best Butcher in Maryland. So happy I found this amazing place. Anyone looking for good prices and amazing quality meat I suggest you try this. They even have goat, ostrich, and buffalo meat. Pictured is a chicken and a pork butt that I smoked all day. Turned out amazing.I give this place 10 Stars if I could. They also have freezer packages with lots of different meat in it for a very reasonable price. Happy Eating!!!!

Bought a rack of beef plate ribs aka Dino ribs. Opened the wrapping and the beef had a surprising and distinct games smell. So much so that my adult son wouldn’t eat it after it was smoked.
