Sumbler BrosButchers

Sumbler Bros is a family-run butcher shop on London Road in Marlborough and a member of the Q Guild of Butchers, a trade body that assesses independent butchers on hygiene, provenance and skill rather than turnover. The shop sells locally sourced beef, lamb, free-range pork and poultry, cut and prepared on the premises, and makes its own sausages, burgers and pies daily, including a Marlborough sausage and a Ramsbury sausage made with Ramsbury Gold ale from the nearby brewery. It opens from 7am to 5pm. Membership of the Q Guild places Sumbler Bros within a national network of roughly 120 vetted independent butchers, a distinction most supermarket meat counters cannot claim. The shop trades as a straightforward local butcher rather than a delicatessen, with the emphasis on traditional cuts, own-made sausages and pies, and direct contact with customers over the counter each morning.
