Honest Chops

About Honest Chops

Honest Chops is a butcher shop located in the East Village of New York City, specializing in serving locally sourced chicken, beef, and lamb. They work with a select group of farmers from around the tri-state to bring you all natural, humane, and organic meat you can feel good about eating and sharing. They are a whole animal butchery, embracing a nose-to-tail philosophy to provide you the finest cuts of meat with very minimal waste.

The shop was founded by Khalid Latif, Bassam Tariq, and Russell Khan. The group of friends met in New York City and opened Honest Chops to serve the community they love. Honest Chops is a social entrepreneurship initiative which aims to give back. A large portion of the profits go to help build out social services and institutions that are much needed in New York City. Every month they distribute meat to soup kitchens, food pantries and families in need around major holidays.
