My wonderful friend gave me a voucher for my birthday and I decided to use it last night on my trip to Queenstown. The service was outstanding and the food was phenomenal. This will be a regular when we are back in Queenstown for sure!
Luckily we live in Auckland so will be sure to visit the Botswana Butchery there soon.

I know there’s a Botswana Butchery in Auckland but I feel as though you have to visit the one in Queenstown first. Botswana Butchery offers amazing service and a fine dining experience in general that many should try in their lifetime.
My dad got the lamb rack, my mum got the venison, my brother got the hare risotto as a starter and the venison as his main and I got the 180g eye fillet. We got the seasonal vegetables, which was maple glazed Brussel sprouts with bacon, macaroni and cheese with bacon and duck fat potatoes to share. I tried a bit of my brothers risotto and it was really creamy, the rice was cooked perfectly because it wasn’t mushy and overcooked. My eye fillet was absolutely amazing. Crispy on the outside from the grill and soft and melt in your mouth like on the inside. Botswana butchery really knows how to cook their meat properly as all meats were done to perfection. The Brussel sprouts were tasty, even if they just boil it, I would still eat it because it’s my favourite vegetable anyway. The duck fat potatoes weren’t too special in my opinion, a bit soggy if I’m honest. Lastly, the Mac n cheese was so delicious. Creamy, rich and not too salty so you can eat a lot of it. If I ordered just that, I guarantee I would walk away with a full stomach.
I recommend Botswana Butchery if you’re looking to splurge while in QT!
Late post, this was a year ago.
Atmosphere was so cozy
Food was pricey (50 for each main) but good quality
Best duck i have ever tasted hands down, so succulent and flavourful
Lamb was also good
Will try the Auckland branch soon
