This is a truly astonishing place and the full English breakfast is outstanding. 3 own make chipolata sausages. 3 rashers of own make bacon. 2 eggs from their own hens, 2 slices of their award winning black pudding and a slice of toast and butter.
A pot of tea is a reasonable £2.45.
My only, very personal gripe, is that the breakfast doesn't come with baked beans, tomato or mushrooms. I get the fact that Uptons wants everything in the breakfast, to be home produced and adding any of the 3 ingredients mentioned above, takes away that uniqueness. But I would happily pay an extra £1.00 for a portion of beans, added to the cost of £11.00, just to top off this great breakfast.
This small, family run shop, has a butchers, cafe, deli and is an outstanding asset to the area. Super friendly owner, brilliant staff members who are all superb ambassadors for the company. Look out for their evening specials...like the upcoming Burns Night on the 25th January. Not cheap at £40.00, but you will be guaranteed the finest meal.
Highly recommended.
Point of interest, if you have a disability blue badge, you can park on the forecourt outside the building, but don't block access.
UPDATE: My thanks to Steve, Katerina and the whole Upton of Bassett team, for the very nice reply to my comment. I would just like to add that I fully understand and respect your decisions on adding extras. I just wish I lived closer to your wonderful premises. Good luck to you all.
I have always wanted to come into Uptons for breakfast, and I was super surprised. This was the best I have tasted for many years. The meal was reasonably priced and was complemented by a great pot of tea. There is a good vibe in the shop, and I can see why it is so popular. The cafe section is small - eight tables, I think - but don't let this put you off. The staff are helpful and very friendly, and it was a pleasure coming in. Best wishes to all in Uptons of Bassett.

Award winners and you can see why! Absolute pleasure, lovely place with very high quality food, great friendly team and lots to try! Highly recommended! Probably the best bacon and black pudding in the UK. Hope to visit again soon.
I visited Uptons of Basset today and was impressed with how they manage a unique blend of being a deli-butcher and a cafe. The homemade cured collar bacon in my bacon sandwich was absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I couldn't resist taking some of their bacon, scotch eggs, and sausage rolls home. A lovely place that definitely deserves your visit!
there isn’t a better butcher in southampton. the steak wrap is by far the best lunch option i’ve found in the area. also love their coffee before an early morning common walk.
Butchers with great quality products. Staff are friendly and helpful. They also sell amazing homemade sausage rolls, pastries and cakes.
Finally had a chance to try food at Uptons and was not disappointed. Had breakfast and must say the eggs benedict was the best I have ever had. Good quality bacon and not too salty. Perfect runny golden yolk egg. I can't wait to try steak and egg next time.
Mocha is the best, thick chocolate, so smooth. First time try faggots, it is made with pork and pig liver. Thanks for the explaination of the staff. He is nice.
If you are down south please don’t miss opportunity to visit our award winning butcher / bistro. Super friendly staff, delicious food and best black pudding you can ever have!
Your furry friend is always welcome and will never leave an empty handed 🦴
Just had there Uptons full English breakfast.
A bit surprised at first as there were no baked beans BUT there was 3 extremely tasty chipolatas with 2 gorgeous black pudding and some of the tastiest bacon I have had anywhere I was assured that they had not hand made the eggs but they were both large eggs with tasty yellow yolk.
I was full after eating the breakfast.
The staff were all extremely friendly especially as I went in as the opened the door at 7am.
I recommend the cooked food and the array of fresh meats pies they sell so if you are near by definitely call in.
Dining here was an experience that went beyond mere satisfaction; it was indeed heavenly. The menu, a testament to culinary excellence, offered a variety of cuts that could satisfy the palate of any steak aficionado.
When the steak arrived, it was a masterpiece. Seared to a flawless medium-rare, the ribeye was a symphony of flavors and textures. The crust was richly caramelized, with grains of salt, encasing the tender, juicy interior with an exquisite balance of fat and lean. Each bite melted in the mouth, releasing layers of complex flavors that spoke of quality meat and expert preparation. Thank you!
Amazing discover! Perfect place for a brunch. Everything looked fresh and juicy. I really like this butcher shop/cafè concept!
I tried the chicken wrap, and it was beautiful!! I will definitely go back to try other things on the menu.
Best lunch in a long time. Amazing service, super fresh food and oh the sear on that fillet steak! Definitely coming here again. Do try the steak wrap. Great find! Thanks Simon
Steak n' eggs were amazing! So fresh. Sometimes, the simple dishes are all we crave 🍳🥩😋
We often use Uptons for their meats, cafe and pop up nights. We have never been disappointed! The cost is higher than buying items from the supermarket but completely worth it. You can see how passionate the team are, they are always welcoming and happy to advise.
This is a truly great place. Awesome food, awesome staff and above all reasonable prices. Nothing in this place is a miss.
Just eaten a slice of rump steak from your shop. It was superb. The fat on the outside was perfect and the steak so tender. Of course my cooking helped! Far superior to any steak I’ve bought from the supermarket and I feel like I’ll never go back!
Die besten Sandwiches, sehr gutes Bier und total nettes Personal

The best sandwiches, very good beer and really nice staff
Really surprised by this restaurant. Both the ingredients and the taste can fully reflect the efforts of the owner and chef.
The owner Simon is a top bloke and so welcoming! This place offers top quality meat, exactly how you want it. Great place for breakfast and the butchery courses are great! One of the best evenings I’ve had. Plus they have pop up dining nights with the best food!
