Family-owned in North Kildonan since 2001
Winnipeg's go-to European butcher and specialty food market for custom cut-to-order meats, handcrafted garlic sausage, house-made perogies, freshly prepared schnitzels and a hard-to-find selection of imported Dutch, German, Polish, Hungarian and Balkan groceries. Visit us at 686 Springfield Road or order online for quick in-store pickup.
Every order at Springfield Meats is hand-cut fresh on demand — we've never stocked pre-ground beef behind the counter. From our Winnipeg-famous garlic sausage and house-cured bacon to fresh Lake Winnipeg pickerel and homemade perogies, our butcher counter and takeout kitchen are built on old-school quality and craftsmanship.
Discover the house-made products and fresh, hand-cut meats that have earned Springfield Meats a fiercely loyal following in North Kildonan and across Winnipeg for more than two decades.
Our signature handcrafted European-style garlic sausage — widely regarded as one of the best in Winnipeg. Made in-house using traditional recipes and premium cuts, perfect for grilling, frying or charcuterie boards.
Freshly prepared, hand-breaded schnitzel from our in-house takeout kitchen. Made daily by Chef Irina using premium pork and our own European seasoning blend — ready for pickup hot or take-and-bake at home.
Pinchers Perogies, made fully in-house since 2017 with our own automated perogy machine and steam kettle. Filled with traditional potato & cheddar, cottage cheese, sauerkraut and seasonal varieties — by the dozen or by the bag.
Custom-cut, in-house cured and smoked bacon — repeatedly called "the best bacon in Winnipeg" by our regulars. Sliced to your preferred thickness right at the counter.
Sourced directly from commercial fishermen in Gimli, MB — owner Lorne Minarik's longtime fishing connections bring fresh Lake Winnipeg pickerel straight to our counter. A true local delicacy.
Up to eight varieties of fresh homemade soup made every day in our takeout kitchen by Chef Irina — borscht, cabbage roll soup, chicken noodle, mushroom and seasonal European favourites.
Founded by Lorne Minarik in 2001, Springfield Meats has grown into a North Kildonan institution loved across Winnipeg for premium cut-to-order meats, an extraordinary European import selection, and a fully functional in-house takeout kitchen. Today, Lorne is joined by his son Tyler and daughter Janelle — a true family business, serving multiple generations of loyal Winnipeg customers.
