If you've run out of places to try in Richmond, make sure you haven't missed Little Berties Butcher, BBQ & Cafe. The butcher is located at the shop front facing Swan St, but walk down the laneway to the side to find their BBQ & Cafe out the back, facing the open car park. If you're lucky, you'll arrive at a time when their BBQ is in full swing and slow cooking some delicious meats for which they are becoming known for.
With all of their produce locally sourced within Australia (including their steak which has received awards), you have the option of purchasing their products from the butcher (in raw meat form, or try their other pantry ingredients and house made products on display) or tasting them freshly prepared in the rustic cafe out the back.
Being Berties Butcher since 1871, current owner Jason (who you may see running things in the front butcher shop) has owned this venue for 7 years now, and soon after he decided to add the BBQ & Cafe. Wanting to give customers another option through which to experience the humble and down-to-Earth hospitality of the Little Berties family, this also gives them the opportunity to try their range of locally sourced and hand made products, ranging from house made pies, ready-made meals, steaks, schnitzels, chips, jar sauces, and so much more.
The cafe offers basic breakfast wraps, sandwiches and pastries alongside Syndicate coffee, as well as smoked and slow-cooked meats, which can be ordered as a main meal with sides, or in a burger/sandwich. Whether you come here to dine in or take away, you can't help but enjoy the friendly banter you will share with the staff, nor will you be disappointed with the casual breakfast or lunch meal you order.
For a simple meal that comes at an affordable price, or if you are needing some ingredients to do some cooking at home, I would recommend visiting Little Berties.
Friendly eatery, love their meats, this is a friday lunch place for something dirty and naughty. So tasty though and their salads are fresh, love the breadroll, i always go for slow cook meat because its my personal favourite, however have tried their sausages before and just as awesome. Also theres a pita pocket place opened up closer to the corner hotel end and they are also amazing, turned out the owner of Berties also partly own that place, no wonder the brisket tastes so good
Hidden between Swan St and the East Richmond station train line is Little Berties... and you can smell it standing 50m away. If you love meat, go here. Service is nice and attentive too, even during the busy Friday lunch rush.
I ordered the pulled pork with apple sauce, with roasted veggies as a side. Definitely get the slaw, it's fresh and a massive portion. I agree with the other review that says you won't leave this place hungry.
