Fantastic quality, marbled and dark as lamb should be. Quick and efficient service. Fits into the fridge well and the taste is superb.

Absolutely love these guys! Stocked my fridge with a whole lamb and 3 chooks for just over $250! Natural, grass-fed, free range and happy animals. Will definitely be a returning customer!

Having spent thousands of dollars at this company, I feel I can write a fair review highlighting both the positive and negatives of this company.

The customer service is hit and miss. When you receive an email or telephone response to your query, the staff are helpful and quick to respond. There are, however, a majority of occasions when you will not receive a response to emails. This is a pain because you may be emailing about an order due in 1 or 2 days time. Live chat isn't any better and went unanswered despite being online.

The meat is exceptional, however.
Some of the best meat I've had. I haven't really experimented with other free range butchers, but I'd imagine this is as high quality as it gets.

Their online ordering system is strange and has different cut off times for different days. Not that the staff realise this when you call up to correct the delivery date. Sometimes the cut-off finishes at 5am, sometimes midnight, sometimes before midnight. Very frustrating, especially when you get your order in before midnight (official cutoff) and the option isn't available for whatever reason.

Contemplating of giving other butchers a go.

I love having my meat delivered right to my door, and its for free!! and its always on time, I have little kids and shopping can be challenging and stressful for everyone.
Feeding my family quality is most important to me.
Simply free range also have a great range of meat available and the rewards system is fantastic.

Amazing! Quality is usually A+. Delivery driver is lovely & they let you pay cash on delivery. Its so simple to order whatever you need, plus you know at least the animals have not suffered, like the "sow stall free" crap you see at the supermarket.
The Grass fed revolution is here. Join us. Its amazing

Having 'grown' our own meat for years, and moving from our farm into town, we missed the free range flavour. Simply Free Range's meat is as tasty as what we used to grow! Fantastic service. Fantastic range. Thank you.

I have been getting Steves meat for the last 2 years. The quality and free range variety is of excellent standard. On mothers-day
I cooked some of the braised beef, it melted on our tongue. I have never tasted beef that good before I ordered from simply free range. The turkey breast roll at x-mss and again the braising
steak was deliciously tasty and soft, juicy and tender.
I would never buy conventional meat again. Am in process of buying bigger freezer capacity, so I can cook for my friends which are a little bit in trouble health wise, nice tasty meals with organic meats. I recommend anybody change to FREE Range
from the Koallah guys in Koallah Country. Txs….

Hi there, just wanted to thank you for my order today. The packaging of the meat is just wonderful, my previous butcher would bulk pack my order and it took me ages to separate it all and wrap it myself, I was overjoyed to see it all vacuum sealed so beautifully, thank you! I'll be ordering again soon :)

Simply Free Range in Rosanna is the only place I buy meat now, because their quality is impeccable and you can trust that it's genuinely free range and healthy for you. Scott and the rest of the staff are always knowledgeable and helpful, and best of all there are usually great priced specials available. It's also very easy to park outside the shop, which is a huge plus.

Approximate cost: $40

My experience was amazing, the shop closed 30 minutes before my partner & I had arrived, my partner John has the worst memory & forgot. We saw Scott still in the shop & he opened just for us. He was so lovely & helpful. We cooked the meat that night & it was just beautiful. I used to go to Jonathan's Butcher on Smith Street, Collingwood. But the meat from Simply Free Range makes Jonathan's look like McDonalds.

The staff here are really friendly and helpful. The quality of the meat is the best I've bought. They prepared my roast pork rack and gave me such great instructions that I successfully made pork crackling for the first time.

There's few things more satisfying than getting pork crackling right Helen. Ha. Thanks for your ongoing support and for taking the time to review us. Thanks, Glen.

Simply Free Range is essential for the health of my family. My daughter and I have several food intolerances, which are made worse by fillings and preservatives added to meat, as well as the age of the meat. Meat in the grocery store can be 6 weeks old before you buy it. I know that the meat I buy from Simply Free Range is fresh and that the animals have not been pumped full of hormones and chemicals. I love the fact that I can place an order online and have fresh meat delivered to my door each weekend for free.

Hi Danielle, It's really nice to hear that the way we farm and prepare our meat gives you the choices you need to maintain a health family life. Thanks so much for taking the time to share that. We really appreciate your support. - Glen
