★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have found that the prices were really good and have had good service and from there in the past but was not impressed this time around. I purchased a roll of pork on 5th Feb 2017 and was in the stages of preparing it for cooking on 6th of Feb 2017 only to discover that the use by date was 2nd Feb 2017. So I phoned the shop to say that I wanted to return it and swap it for another one. The female I spoke to tried to convince me that it was fine to eat and I said no way as my daughter was pregnant and that I didn’t want to take any chances. After much debate I said I was coming down to swap it.
While I was choosing a replacement one I noticed that there were 3 other pork rolls that were out dated
The male at the counter also tried to convince me that the pork was fine to eat to which I again said no and he was very reluctant to go ahead with the exchange until I pointed out to him that I had noticed 3 other pork rolls that were also out dated and his excuse was that sometimes they don’t look properly and that he will remove the out dated ones to which I said I believe they were selling them knowingly and then his whole demeanour changed to being very obliging…funny that…
It has been a wee while since I have shopped there as I live in Christchurch and fly up to Auckland regularly to visit my children.
I believe the shop may be under new Management as I have been served by very friendly and obliging Indian people in the past but this time I had to deal with not so friendly and not so obliging Asian people
Also the shop name is listed as Meat World and not NZ Wholesale Meats Onehunga
Won’t be going back…

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This butcher shop caters for the local market in Onehunga. Having said that, if you after uncommon cuts of meat that you will not find in the supermarket, this is your "go to" place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place had a stale odor. The girl who served me, was stuffing her face and when she did talk,I saw what she was eating stick out of her mouth( bad mannerism and customer services). The meat I paid for had more bones than meat. Overall unimpressed with the experience,will not be going back or recommending the place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Go here every time we do a work BBQ and spend $100-$200. Had a bag of sausages brand new 4 weeks past it's best before date. Apparently it's standard practice to do this and they will last months and months because they are sealed. Was not interested in a refund because we used a few of them. Very disappointing considering we are a regular customer.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fair Go had their mince sent to a lab, and results revealed an extra, unwanted ingredient in some of the mince. Both Meat World Onehunga’s standard and prime packs tested positive for sulphites and sulphur dioxide.
It’s illegal to add the two food additives to raw ground beef under the Food Act. They can cause allergy-like reactions for some people, including asthma sufferers.
Meat World’s store manager told Fair Go they didn’t know how sulphites had got into their products and suggested the error was made by their meat supplier. The supplier has since ruled out any possibility of sulphites being used or stored onsite.
Auckland Council and MPI are now investigating Meat World.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I've been going there for years
When the lamb chops used to be $10 for a tray it's $20 now so massive jump considering mangere is still between $12-$15.
Might be cos it's south Auckland everything's cheaper.
In terms of customer service I've had good days with them and sometimes not so welcoming it might be just their moods but it should always be one way whatever the cost as it's their shop and customers see this. I also think they are misunderstood at times

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Interesting that nobody from MeatWorld has even bothered to reply to any of these very bad reviews. I think that says it all really. However I am going to add something else you should be aware of. The hole in the footpath (see photos) is directly where the meat gets off-loaded daily. The truck drivers slosh through this puddle EVERYTIME raw meat carcasses are delivered.
The staff also throw raw offal to the seagulls on a daily basis. They hang around all day waiting for titbits, so seagull poo all around the entrance as well, not to mention the dirty seagulls constantly hanging around.
