It's a butcher shop. It looks like one inside, smells like one, there's no getting around it. They also have a variety of fish, mostly frozen but most of them are not "commercial brand" fish but rather, line-caught and hauled in to be frozen by a fishmonger and sold at Best Meats. Can get some pretty nice pieces of salmon there.

But if you remember old fashioned butcher shops - they were not "pleasant" places. The smell of a back room that cuts up sides of beef without a wall to separate it from the sales floor is not pleasant.

They have good local Florida cheese too by the way, right at the counter.

Earth Fare's beef is grass fed and grass finished, so I won't buy it. I want beef grain finished. Grass finished is dry and gamey.
