Feels like your family when you go here. The meats are always fresh and delicious. You can find anything you need here !!!!
Its a wonderful little butcher shop with some german favorites that are hard to find any where else. Some of the prices are a little higher than your average butcher and the selection is a little smaller but its definitely worth a visit
When I was little, my Oma and Opa would bring products from the Forest Pork Store out to Montauk for us. As I got old enough to stay with them for a week up island, they would bring me to the Huntington Station store, where theyd order from the butchers in German. Theyd known the place in Queens and started coming to the Huntington location when they move out to the island. Now Im forty and I still make sure I stop by a couple of times a year for the fabulous liverwurst (get the kind with goose liver added), salami (seasoned differently than Italian salamies), rye bread (without caraway and with a wonderful dark crust), and other german products. They have some lovely wursts and great hot dogs. Also, you can get a lot of chocolates, gummies, candies, and marzipan--even more selection if you go near Christmas or Easter. The beer selection is not vast, but it is quality. If youve never been, I highly recommend you check out the Forest Pork Store. Its a delicious relic from a previous era and worth experiencing while its still here.
I have been going to this place since I was a child, and am always overwhelmed by a wave of sentimentality whenever I walk through its doors. The staff are incredibly friendly and create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Also, the products they carry are incredible and of the highest quality. They offer many imported goods from Germany and Eastern Europe as well as freshly made meat and bread products.
As far as I know perhaps the only store in Suffolk County (and perhaps Nassau as well) that specializes in all types of German products. Well worth the visit particularly for their great selection of sausages, chops, fresh/dried meats and cold cuts. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.
Ive been here only a couple times, but tried many wursts. They are legit and really tasty, the big pretzels and pretzel rolls are addictive. This is my go to for oktoberfest cravings. The guys behind the counter are cool too.
Best German butcher around! Try the Leberkasse. Its like a homemade bologna, but 10x better. Warm, on rye or a roll with mustard. While youre at it, pick up some Bratwurst for dinner, and a few Landjaeger ( think of a really good, not so dry Slim Jim; no, way better than that, and not so slim). Top-notch meats, too! Ribs, roasts, chop meat and smoked pork. You cant go wrong with anything that they have. Ask the butcher what he likes and give it a try.
All the meat products were amazing! Smoked pork chop, shell steak all the sausages the sides were great also.Reminds me of when I was young girl going to German butcher getting slice of bologna in queens and visiting Germany. Next time trying the sauerbraten and anything else they have!
Very disappointed today after leaving work early trying to get some cocktail franks for New years and yet again like last year they sold the last ones to people right in front of me and was told they have no more. How can they not plan for something that is a German tradition to have these available. These home made ones are very hard to find anywhere else so they should order extra and get rid of the regular skinless franks which are quite frankly awful as they taste like chicken broth and no snap to them and The liverwurst with onions which used to be the best but is also not the same now and just coarse and tasteless... somethings are good but you take your chances now... you cant even phone as the recording says they are too busy and direct you to go to the store and when you get to the store the response is oh well Im sorry. My new years resolution is to stop going to Forests Pork Store from now on
This place is the best. Everyone who works there is very friendly, and very helpful. They always give you service with a smile, and their products are amazing. If I could give them 10 stars I would!Update: I had their marinated bone in steak..... Absolutely incredible. By far the most tender steak i have ever had. These guys NEVER cease to amaze me.
FANTASTIC German Butcher. What are you waiting for? I absolutely love this place. I dont say that too often. I just recently found this store and was thrilled. Ive had many of the wursts and other meats. The Weisswurst is a favorite of mine having had this in Munich and many other villages in Germany. Forest Porks Weisswurst is fantastic and very authentic. Make sure you also try the Krainerwurst smoked sausage. Truly amazing! They also have a lot of other German foods and package goods.
Its last German butcher shop here, its bit sad that people dont appreciate these local ethnic stores.For great smoke meat, bacon sausage this is best place always happy to go thereThey have great service always with smile.
My recent trip was great. All customers were wearing masks. The butchers are working behind hanging plastic. The previous Karen post is extreme, we all want to be safe, but they are taking precautions.My order was great, I hope they survive 2020. A gem in Huntington.
This place is #1. Best sausages, meats and their BACON is AMAZING! Theyve been around for a long time, but without a doubt they are on their A-Game! Bunch of butchers in the back doing work all day long. Stop by and youll find amazing foods and some pretty unique German stuff as well. Sweets, candies, wines, etc. Loved it.
This pork stores selection is beautiful and fresh. Their steaks are absolutely amazing and we are always satisfied when we go its such a treat. They also have other nice little snacks and things around that are fun to get and tasty.
Its all about QUALITY. The staff is knowledgeable, patient, and helpful...including a cooking secret or two.The products simply speak for themselves.Its why people travel to this store.
Outstanding old school German sausage , brats and frankfurters. Easily the best I have tried outside of Germany.
I love Forest Pork Store. I have been going there for decades. But, the way they treat COVID is a joke. There were 7 butchers behind the counter. Not a single one wore a mask. Yes, they had face shields. But, as is well documented, face shields offer ZERO protection. In fact, every breath the butcher takes falls right on the food. Second, there was no crowd control. The store had 19 customers in it when I was there. How can you possibly have 6 foot separation with that many people in that store? The Suffolk Department of Health needs to step in, ASAP.
Authentic taste of Old Germany. Im not German, but my wife is 3rd generation. They are so patient with customers who love everything there, but arent sure what or how to order. Its a wonderfully warm, immersive experience, and you get to go home with incredible food.
Great old world style German pork store with a wide variety of german specialties. Store was clean and well protected for covid prevention. Staff was helpful and did not rush us even though it was close to closing time.
Picked up some fresh smoked meats for thanksgiving, all I can say is I will never buy from the grocery store again some of the best meat I’ve ever bought
The men behind the counter are always very helpful and courteous and know their stuff! I drive from Baldwin to Huntington station to the forest pork store to stock up on my meats, sausages, spices etc. and every mile is worth the trip. I do regret that I cant get the magazines and crossword puzzles anymore! I will be back.
Great old school butcher shop that brings me back to the days of my youth growing up in the 50s and 60s.Had a pre-prepared Sauerbraten for Thanksgiving that was the best Ive ever had.Nice, pleasant atmosphere. Helpful, patient employees too.
This place reminds me of the Metzgerei I would visit when stationed in Germany years ago. For a little store, it contains a lot of German food items you cant normally get at your local grocery store. They have two meat counters, plus shelves of German food items. In addition to buying items in the store, they will ship via UPS.
My family has been shopping here for year. If youre looking for authentic German fare, this is the real deal.
Products rarely seen anywhere. Excellent butcher. A little pricey but worth the treat.
One of the best around. Fine selection of great quality meats and deli selections. They also have some excellent breads and the guys behind the counter are always a joy to deal with. My only complaint is that it is too far from my home.
I dont know what Lauries problem is, but the service here is outstanding, beyond reproach. You do have to take a number, but when its called, you have their complete attention. Phenomenal selection of traditional house-made wursts and hams, smoked pork products, bacon plus fresh meats all from their location in Ridgewood. Plus mustards, preserves, and... beer!
Staff, store and food!!! 10 Stars!!Brought up something I ate for breakfast as a kid at work....& a coworker said I know what it was!! Pointed me right to Forest Pork...rushed over at lunch and it is!!! Soooooo good. Staff was busy but super polite and helpful. Gotta go back!! So many memories of 1984!!(person who served it year ago is gone sadly)
OMG!!!! AWESOME place! Freshly made, gourmet quality sausages and deli meats. Traditional European flavor and flare. Customers are treated like family. Best surprise of all is how affordable they are.
Just awesome. My family has been buying meat there since there 60s. They cant be beat. The butchers are friendly and very informative about recipes.
The best place hands down for authentic German Bavarian supermarket. There cold cuts are all made by them and smoke in Queens. I have been going there for over 25 years.
I am from Delaware but my wife is from Long Island originally and this is a must stop any time we are in town. The meats are pricey but if excellent quality that we have not found anywhere else. We highly recommend this place!
I know of two of these stores. I never been to this one. The one that I know of is in Queens. Great store of old world food. I need to visit this one on long Island.
My family has referred to this place as the German Butcher since before I was alive, and its a favorite of my Grandma, who grew up in prewar Germany. Everything there is top notch, and a few things there I have never seen elsewhere. You can hear them talking in German in the back. It is a bit pricey, but well worth it.
This store is filled with German delicacies! Great selection, knowledgeable butchers but bring your credit card---this place aint cheap!
Want to wow your family or get something fun to make and eat? Come here.Between beers, sweets, and meats, this place is the best on long island. Go here, you wont be disappointed.Family-friendly customer service, too.
Great quality, great service. I just dont understand how having all the butchers working so closely together without masks is following Covid protocol.
To much Covid precautions. However what can one do in a small store. I stayed because I wanted the German stuff inclusive of beer.
Always a great selection of meat. They also have bread and other groceries. Love to get the little hot dogs for my pigs in a blanket!
I lived about a mile and a half away from the forest pork store been going there since Ive been 7 years old that would be 1970 I knew back then it was the best butcher on Long Island
Great fresh meat selection and unmatched pork meat variety. Also upon your visit youll experience welcoming culture and delicatessen of Germany.
I always get great service there but today a young man named John was exceptional. He gave us a sample and it was right out of the oven. Hes a credit to his employer
The best butcher store on Long Island. The best meats, incredible selection. Includes some wild game, imported beer, candies, etc.A MUST GO

2021-09-18The meat is amazing, the selection of German imported goods is great and makes me feel very nostalgic. The best part however is the customer service. The crew is very friendly and helpful and they go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience. Will definitely be coming back here from now on for most of my meat shopping trips and will slowly eat my way through their selection.

2020-01-24Have been shopping here for years. Best place for authentic German food and treats. Love their peanut franks, salami, and smoked pork chops the best. A little price-but worth every penny! 👍
Review №5
2020-10-02An amazing selection of German delicacies, including so many different kinds of wurst, The potato salad and coleslaw are amazing and the regular butcher section has nothing but the best.

2021-04-14More brands and styles of mustard than I ever thought existed. Well organized products out of primarily German cuisine. Beautiful looking cuts if meat and brats and wieners of all shapes and sizes. I was attracted to the freezer full of large German soft pretzels and the red creamy birch soda. Went well with my lunch of cod liver and German pretzel. Worth a visit. You may find a few new things you never knew existed. Pleasant staff as well.

2021-08-13I’m a fan of this butcher store for over 20 years and I travel about 28 miles each way to get my cold cuts there. For the second time in two weeks I am put on hold for a really long time. I just hung up after listen to the music for 13 minutesI’ll try some of the polish butcher shops near me. I understand they are pretty good as well
Review №8
2022-03-17High quality meats. The butchers readily give samples and offer suggestions on how to cook the various products.
Review №9
2018-06-22The best German pork store this side of Dusseldorf! If you want tip top Wurst, meat, salads and German rye bread this is the place for you. Friendly folk and clean as a whistle. Cant say enough good things about this place. But then once youve eaten a few of their bratwurst, kreinerwurst or knockwurst youll understand!

As soon as you walk in the door you feel as though as you are in Germany! Great meat clean inside and out! And the staff are incredible! John- it’s been a pleasure knowing u sense I was a little guy! Thank u for making me want to crave your food over and over and over again! We will miss u a bunch when we leave to Florida! Love Kurt Loeser jr
