Overview
The Waiheke Butcher is Waiheke’s brand new butchery. They are bringing back old roots of a 1900’s style butchery with a modern take, serving a wide range of meats.
The Waiheke Butcher is located in the same building as Humblepie Village Butcher which sadly closed in 2025.
The owners of The Waiheke Butcher are French foodies and locals Wade, Lisa and Phillippe. They are following in their great-grandfathers footsteps of village butchers in the 1900’s. Their aim is to bring back the old style butchery nostalgia that has slowly vanished over the years due to supermarkets.
Their partner Philippe is a third generation charcutier. His family has had 600 years of quality craftsmanship, love and respect for the animals and ethical farming practice.
Since 2013 Wade and Lisa have been passionately involved in creating handmade foods and food brands – fresh pasta, bakery, pies and of course L’Authentique’s pate and sausages.
Their first kiwi food enterprise L’Authentique is the key inspiration in helping them develop The Waiheke Butcher. You may have tried L’Authentique’s delicious flavourful meats before. They can be purchased from Woolworths, RAW, My food bag and other food markets.
I’m not a massive fan of sausages but the L’Authentique brand certainly have me going back for more.
