1. For meat

For meat orders, try Provenance, an excellent Notting Hill butcher that delivers to W11,W10,W8 and W2 postcodes. This year they have boneless whole chicken marinated in thyme, lemon and honey plus a wide range of pies made in house and a special gluten free pork, pomegranate and chestnut stuffing made in store. H.G. Walter (near Baron’s Court) and famed Holland Park butcher C. Lidgates will also be offering home delivery, but as always, best to get your order in long before the 20 December to beat the crowd.
