Mattern's Butcher Shop

I have not experienced the same service issues that some of the other reviewers have noted. Been in 3 times for lunch and everything has been great. The service had been exceptionally pleasant and speedy, even when they were busy. Sandwiches have all been delicious with fresh bread and high quality meats. It's a very cool and relaxing space as well. I will continue to stop by for lunch when I'm passing through Goshen.

I very much enjoyed this local butcher shop and deli, which was a pleasant, casual lunch place. The interior is bright and airy with high ceilings, and seating extends pretty deep into the restaurant along the meat/deli counter. You order off their blackboard at the register, and they bring the lunch to your table. Enjoyed the reuben sandwich and thought it was reasonably priced. One cool feature is that they offer vintage bottled sodas. The meat selection also looked very good, particularly the pork chops. There is a very small specialty olive oil shop (different owner) in the way back.

Sorry, I want to give this place a better review... but there are some things not going well at Mattern's.  First, each day they have three soup choices but almost never do they offer a healthy choice; something without white flour in it.  Second, they are a deli, and offer wraps as a menu choice.  Yet, each of the last three of four times I've been there they "just ran out of wraps."  

Perhaps they are a better butcher shop than they are a lunch deli, I can't judge them on this.  I've eaten lunch there more than once a week since they opened, and I'm beginning to believe that their best days are behind them.  Bummer.
