    Our Story

    A Tradition of Quality & Giving

    The Butcher's Pantry & Restaurant has served Solon since 2016. Under Brad Kozar's ownership since November 2024, it keeps getting better: a butcher shop, a restaurant and a catering kitchen under one roof, run by classically trained chefs with over 30 years of experience.

    Everything is made from scratch. Our meats and poultry are Ohio farm to table, raised without antibiotics, grass and grain fed. Inspired by Paul Newman's brand of products, 100% of our profits go directly to charity.
