About Us

Elvy’s, one of the most historic names in Australian Butchery was started by the Elvy family in the late 1800’s, and first opened in the Inner West of Sydney. In 1952, Elvy's moved to a corner shop in Leichhardt NSW before finally moving to new premises in Concord in 2026.
John Elvy took over the family business and legacy in 1973 until 2013, when David bought the business, respecting the family history of the shop and retaining the Elvy name. With 20 years experience as a butcher, David has worked hard to retain the quality and service expected by Elvy’s customers. He has also reflected his own European heritage by introducing house made smoked European small goods alongside the prestigious meat offer.
Still a traditional family butcher, David and the team pride themselves on offering only the best, local, and handmade goods for your family. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to eat meat that has been ethically reared and should taste the way it should. All products are grass fed, free range, preservative and nitrate free, and nothing comes out of the box with all bodies broken down by hand. With beef from Cowra and pork and lamb from Temora, all our bodies come directly from the farmers which allows us to choose what we want to get the best weight and amount of fat for our needs. We also make all of our smallgoods in house by hand, including our sausages for which we use all-natural casings (not synthetic).
David and his team are busy in the shop daily and ready to help answer any questions you have about our meat, ordering and even preparing and cooking.
We’re looking forward to welcoming you to Elvy’s on Allen!
We’d be pleased to meet you with meat to please you!
Thanks,
David
