Your butcher shop on Lake Constance: Butcher shop & catering service
Regional meat and sausage products from our own production
Animal welfare and short transport routes
Prevention of food waste by utilizing the entire animal
In our family business, these are not just passing fads. With our in-house slaughtering, we have been maintaining these traditions since 1985. To this day, these are the prerequisites for the highest quality.
Spontaneous visit on Sunday or late in the evening and still craving a grilled sausage? No problem. Thanks to our vending machine, you can purchase seasonal meat and sausage products from the Ochsen Metzgerei Wattinger butcher shop around the clock.
Payment by cash, card, and Twint is possible!
We look forward to welcoming you to our butcher's shop in Altnau. Since 1985, our family business has been committed to high-quality meat and sausage products from our own production. This includes our in-house slaughtering, which is carried out in collaboration with regional farmers. In addition to a wide range of house specialties, you will always find seasonal offerings. We also offer a selection of additional items. Our goal is to satisfy our customers' wishes with tasty products of the highest quality. Stop by and see for yourself. Because buying meat is a matter of trust!
Whether for family celebrations, weddings, corporate events, or your own personal event, we are at your side with fine menus and comprehensive service. All you have to do is celebrate. Be inspired by our menu suggestions and put together your own individual menu. Thanks to our many years of experience, we can fulfill (almost) any request competently and flexibly. We would be happy to advise you in person or over the phone. In addition to our party service offerings, you will find helpful checklists on our website to help you prepare for your celebration.
From complete tableware to various grills and cooking equipment to refrigerated trailers—we equip you for every occasion. To give you an idea of what we offer, you will find a PDF document on our website with a list of all our services as well as helpful checklists for planning your event.
What began in 2010 as a small part of the 25th anniversary of the Ochsen butcher's shop has developed into a major event. To accommodate a total of 400 seats, the converted Ochse-Schüür behind the butcher's shop is cleared out and a large tent is erected. Families, companies, clubs, and people of all ages and backgrounds come together at the Metzgete to enjoy a feast for the senses. Word of the unique atmosphere of the Metzger-Metzgete has long since spread beyond the region. From cream blood sausage to freshly fried liver and sliced meat to delicious sauerkraut, the all-you-can-eat Metzgete buffet has something for every hungry mouth.
Something different – our new spit grills
Are you planning a social event in a relaxed atmosphere? Then we have just the thing for you! With a cozy barbecue featuring our unique spit grills, there's no chance of boredom setting in, because we bring movement to the proceedings. Once everyone has put together their own skewer according to their preferences, your guests will meet at the grill. Your party will automatically come to life. We recommend beef, chicken, veal, pork, sausages, grilled bacon, shrimp, and delicious grilled vegetables with a variety of barbecue sauces. To go with it, we offer a rich salad buffet and, on request, a warm side dish.
