Welcome to Prairie West

Calgary's trusted family butcher shop serving premium Alberta meats since 1993

Our Family Story

Rooted in Calgary, our family butcher shop has proudly provided premium meats sourced from local Alberta farms for over three generations. Prairie West Specialty Meats began as a small Bowness meat shop with a simple mission: bring Calgary families the finest cuts from trusted local ranchers.

Today, we're still the same neighborhood Calgary butcher committed to quality, but we've grown to serve thousands of families across northwest Calgary who trust us for their specialty meats, custom cuts, and expert advice.

Our Roots

For over 30 years, Prairie West Specialty Meats has been Calgary's premier butcher shop, dedicated to bringing the finest Alberta beef from farm to table with care and respect.

What started as a small meat shop on Bowness Road has grown into Calgary's trusted destination for specialty meats. We've maintained our commitment to traditional butchery methods while embracing modern standards for quality and safety.

Passion for quality meat. Every cut tells a story of Alberta's rich ranching heritage. Our Calgary butcher shop partners exclusively with local farms that share our values: sustainable practices, humane treatment, and exceptional quality.
