our suppliers

Drake & Macefield continue to source the best quality meat that money can buy from reputable, established local farmers through flagship field-to-plate partnerships. 

Farmers like John Spensley of Skipton, who is now supplying Drake & Macefield with top-notch Limousin-cross cattle.  This superb beef is proving extremely popular with customers.  All John's cattle are home bred completely naturally in lush green pastures.  The farm is registered as farm-assured and is subject to rigorous annual inspections, guaranteeing all aspects of animal welfare and environmental care.

Another field-to-plate partnership that goes from strength to strength is one forged with local farmers John and David Mellin, of nearby Black Lane Ends.  Field-reared Simmental and Belgian Blue beef and Texel-cross lambs are sourced from the Mellins and continue to prove great favourites with customers. 

The latest news on the local supply front - and you won't get much more local than this - concerns partner Ian Thompson, who has taken over 35 acres of verdant pastureland on the outskirts of Skipton to raise his own Suffolk and Texel prime lambs exclusively for Drake & Macefield customers.  He also has plans to rear both cattle and pigs, so expect to see Ian's quality Yorkshire beef and pork on the menu in the future.
