Yes, Halswell Butchery delivers to Prebbleton, covering postcodes 7604 and 7676.
Halswell Butchery is a locally owned Christchurch butchery that has been supplying quality meat to Canterbury households since 2007. While our retail shop is based at 490 Sparks Road in Halswell, we deliver fresh, locally sourced meat straight to homes and workplaces across Prebbleton and the wider Selwyn district. You get the same cuts, the same quality, and the same friendly service that our Christchurch customers have relied on for years, without the drive into town.
Order online and choose delivery or click and collect, and your meat arrives vacuum packed and kept cold in a chilltainer so it stays fresh from our shop to your door.
Prebbleton dates back to 1855, when the Prebble brothers arrived from Kent and settled the district, making it one of the earliest European settlements on the Canterbury Plains. The Prebbleton Domain on Tosswill Road dates back to 1880 and is still home to the Prebbleton Rugby Football Club, formed in 1919, and a tennis club that has been playing on the same grounds since as early as 1892. All Saints Anglican Church, designed by noted Christchurch architect Benjamin Mountfort, has stood in the village since the 1870s and remains a local landmark.
Clubs with that much history mean a steady calendar of cricket, netball, rugby, soccer, and tennis fixtures at the Domain, and plenty of postmatch sausages and family dinners to go with them. Ordering your meat online for delivery means you can stock the freezer for the weekend without cutting into time you would rather spend at the clubrooms or on the sideline.
Prebbleton has grown quickly in recent years, and the newly opened Prebbleton Village retail and hospitality precinct now sits right beside the Little River Rail Trail, the old railway route that connects Prebbleton to Lincoln and is popular with walkers and cyclists. The Prebbleton Community Market runs at the Community Cottage on the first Sunday of the month, and the Prebbleton Nature Park, 2.6 hectares of native Canterbury vegetation on Springs Road, is a favourite spot for a quiet walk. The surrounding countryside is still farmed intensively, with orchards, olive groves, and horse studs adding to the village's country character.
With so much happening within walking distance, from the market to the rail trail to weekend sport, many Prebbleton households would rather spend their Saturday enjoying the village than driving into Christchurch for meat. Our delivery service is built for exactly that.
If you are a lover of cheese - then you have to try Barry's Bay. The local Akaroa cheese monger makes beautiful cheeses that are perfect for your next platter - or up'ing your burger game. The cheeses are available in store AND NOW ONLINE!
Our hams are all cooked on the premises, with minimal water added. You can purchase them whole, or we can slice to order.
All the bacon we sell is dry cured the old-style way on our premises. As the name suggests, dry curing means that no water is added. This ensures that whether you are pan frying or grilling, the bacon doesn't steam, ensuring you get a lovely, crispy result. Perfect for your weekend breakfast!
A large range of loin, shoulder and Danish style (using just the eye) options, with or without rind are available. Check them out next time you're in.
Our premium steaks are all aged at least two weeks to maximize flavour.
Fillet steak is the tenderest cut available and is so lean, there is almost no waste.
Ribeye steak has a little more marbling, which many believe provides a superior flavour.
We stock a full range of salamis - from a feisty pepperoni, to strong garlic through to mild for those who like to take things a little more slowly.
If you're after an elegant addition to your antipasto platters, look no further than our delicious Prosciutto. Air dried and sliced thin, it's also fantastic to wrap around other meats or fruits.
Another one to try is our Pancetta - Italian bacon which adds a sophisticated touch to pasta and stew.
Sliced Chorizo is another option to spice up your antipasto. It's superb on crackers, or in many Spanish tapas dishes.
Kransky sausages, with their distinctive smoky flavour, make a great alternative for hot dogs, and are usually a big hit with the kids.
Frankfurters are the more traditional hot dog option - and who says you have to wait for the weather to get warm to enjoy a sausage in a bun??
