Questions

Orderingat the counter.

The questions we hear most at the meat counter. More on the full FAQ.

  • Do you cut meat to order?

    Yes. Nothing on display at The Bay Butcher in Oyster Bay is finished — every steak, chop, and roast is portioned at the counter. Tell us the table size, the technique, and roughly what you'd like to spend, and we'll cut the right weight and thickness.

  • How do I place a special or whole-animal order?

    Call the counter at (516) 273-6733. For special cuts — suckling pig, whole tomahawks, crown roasts, side of beef — we ask for 48 hours' notice, and longer for whole-animal items in season. We wrap, weigh, and label the order with your name for pickup.

  • What are your hours?

    The Bay Butcher is open Tuesday through Saturday from 12 to 6 pm and Sunday from 10 am to 3 pm. We're closed Mondays. Holiday hours can vary, so call ahead during Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, and the 4th of July week.

  • Where are you located, and is parking easy?

    We're at 96 South St in Oyster Bay, NY, three storefronts down from the water. There's a public lot a block from the shop on South Street plus on-street parking nearby. Holiday weekends fill up early — come early or call for curbside.

  • How long is your beef dry-aged?

    We dry-age whole bone-in primals on the bone in our own cellar, from 28 up to 60 days. 28-day is our standard; 45 and 60 are available by request. Ask at the counter and we'll show you what's on the rail and when it went in.

  • Do you have options for special diets?

    Our case is whole-muscle beef, pork, poultry, lamb, and veal, so most cuts are naturally gluten-free-friendly, and our house sausages and prepared items are cut and mixed in-shop. If you're cooking around an allergy, tell us when you order and we'll walk you through what's in each preparation.

  • Can you hold an order for me?

    Yes. Call the counter and we'll have it wrapped, weighed, and labelled with your name. Same-day pickups don't need a deposit; orders held longer than a day require a card on file.
