Yes, Halswell Butchery delivers to Westmorland as part of our Christchurch delivery zone.
Halswell Butchery is a locally owned Christchurch butchery that has been supplying quality meat to Canterbury households since 2007. Our retail shop at 490 Sparks Road is a short drive from Westmorland, and we deliver fresh, locally sourced meat straight to homes across the hillside suburb. You get the same cuts, the same quality, and the same friendly service as our Halswell customers, without needing to leave home.
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.
Westmorland only began development in the 1970s, making it one of the more recent additions to the Port Hills, and new sections were still being added as recently as 2020. Sitting mostly on a hillside with commanding views back over Christchurch, Westmorland has a noticeably older average age than most Selwyn or Halswell area suburbs, reflecting a community of established homeowners who bought in for the view and stayed. In February 2017, the Port Hills fires burned through the hills nearby, coming close to Westmorland, Kennedys Bush, and Dyers Pass Road, a reminder of how close this elevated suburb sits to the rugged, tussock covered slopes above it.
Living up on the hill often means a longer, steeper drive down for the weekly shop, which is exactly why so many Westmorland households prefer to have their meat delivered rather than making the trip down and back for a single errand.
Because Westmorland climbs the northern face of the Port Hills, many of its streets offer sweeping views back across Christchurch to the Southern Alps, a very different outlook to the flat suburbs on the plains below. The suburb sits close to Cashmere and Kennedys Bush, both similarly perched on the hillside, and residents share access to the same network of Port Hills walking tracks that lead up toward the Sign of the Takahe.
For hillside households with a bit more room to store a proper meat order, and less appetite for an extra trip down the hill, our delivery service brings the butchery to you instead.
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??
