About R Martins Butchers
R Martins is a traditional family butcher at 21 Newgate Street in Morpeth town centre, established for over a hundred years. The shop is known for high-quality beef, pork and lamb at competitive prices, sourced from local farms with full traceability back to the farm gate. Sausages are a speciality, including Northumberland sausage with leek or sage, Spanish merguez and thin pork sausage, and the shop also makes its own fresh homemade pies. Long run to a high standard by Geoff Rice and Lee Belisle, R Martins keeps to traditional butchery methods and supports local farmers, remaining a well-established fixture on Morpeth's high street.
