Butcher & Barrel is Steaking a Claim in Downtown Sac
Butcher & Barrel arrived on the Sacramento restaurant scene in October 2023 and, since then, has been making quite the splash. The restaurant is part of a wave of new business and new excitement to emerge Downtown post-pandemic, as Sacramentans head out for date nights, shopping trips, or to light the beam.
The owner of Butcher & Barrel, Kevin McBride, stated in a Sacramento Business Journal article that he sees a “spark coming back alive” in Downtown Sac with tremendous growth in the area.
The Butcher & Barrel Team is led by Executive Chef Luis Cruz, who has spent over 17 years dedicated to his craft. Cruz is committed to providing a sustainable farm-to-fork dining experience that showcases local ingredients.
The vibrant new eatery offers an elevated casual environment where they serve upscale, fresh, farm-to-fork menu items. The restaurant is located on K Street, convenient to the Golden 1 Center and Downtown Commons.

Butcher & Barrel adds a touch of elegance to their cocktail menu with the addition of Block Ice. When you order a craft cocktail or one of your favorite spirits on the rocks, you’ll spy their logo stamped into a familiar, crystal-clear cube.
The cocktail menu at Butcher & Barrel is as well-thought-out as the food menu. Keep it classic with The Butcher’s Old Fashion, made with bourbon and chocolate bitters. Need a pick-me-up?
