About

Who We Are

Since 2014, the Westerham shop has been owned and run by Richard Hards and his family; however it was first opened in 1985 by our family friend Laurence Larratt.

​

In 2020 Richard then acquired the Chapel Place Tunbridge Wells shop, and has very much enjoyed serving the local community in his home town; as well as in Westerham (and the local areas).  

Working for over 15 years as a qualified chef, including running his own fine dine restaurant; Richard then spent a full year working alongside Laurence to perfect his butchery skills before taking over Larratt & Co.  As a former chef, Richard appreciates fine food, and is dedicated to providing a range of the best possible quality meat and produce, enabling him to provide his customers with the best in taste, service and experience.  Larratt & Co offers a wide range of mouth-watering traditional produce which is sourced from around the UK, as well as a tempting selection of sausages, burgers and oven-ready meals, which are all made on the premises.  

Richard or a member of his team are also always on hand to offer advice and tips on recipes or cooking techniques.
