Schreiner’s Fine Sausage

The brown bag lunch is a helluva deal, and the polish sausage was excellent. Good snap, great spice, and well dressed with kraut, onions and mustard.
Kudos to the guy behind the counter for a great suggestion, and give the samples a try — the bologna and salami were really good!

I’ve only been here the one time, but I’m confident that this will be my go to spot. Very happy with sausages today.

Tons of variety of sausages. Very nice informative people working there. Can tell they are all made there. Enjoyed the fig and pistachio one the best. My wife really liked the chicken enchilada.

Had the Boudin, It was amazing, Every time I’m in the mood for sausage I’m going here.

We were looking for some Portuguese linguica and found it here at this wonderful shop. The selection of sausages was amazing and this very small corner store was packed the day before Thanksgiving. We bought both the smoked and fresh linguica and it was delicious. We’ll be back to this place for sure. Well worth the dive from North East Scottsdale. We also bought fresh brats and some hard salami. The place was well staffed and the people that work there are very helpful and friendly.

I go here for my bacon. AT 5.49 per pound, this bacon is cheaper than most bacon in the stores. I love the taste and flavor of the bacon.
I know that they have handmade sausages, but I’m not into sausage. HA! An interesting fact… you can customize your sausage recipe there… so bring in your recipe and order your sausage.
They also carry a variety of deli meats. I love to try the samples, but I have not ordered any of their deli meats.
Return FActor: 100%
FYI: they have a $ 5 minimum on credit card purchases.

First thing to know, they do NOT take credit cards. Major hassle in today’s world when people often don’t carry any cash (I don’t).
But I managed to get some cash, and we bought some stuff here. They told us they make all their sausages themselves, which is cool. They are a bit pricey. We came for the linguisa. That can be hard to find, but they have it. It was, alas, not amazing. It was fine. Pretty good. Nothing compared to the linguisa available in Hawaii (not even close). We also got some andouille sausage that we haven’t cooked yet (so I can’t comment), some «Hungarian rope» which was pretty good, and a salami that was fine.
Overall, underwhelming. This place is fine, and if you live nearby it’s probably a decent sausage market (better than most groceries), but I would not make a special trip to come back here.

LOVE Schreiner’s! Have been several times to stock up on sausage and fresh meats. We’ve even done the brown bag lunch. Jalapeño sausages are AMAZING. The Maple Blueberry sausage is unbelievable. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. We can’t wait to go back!

I drove by this place countless times. Don’t know why I didn’t stop in the past. Now it’s a destination! The Kielbasa was great, it reminded me of the stuff my Uncle used to make years ago. I had the fresh and the smoked, and loved them both. Also read a review that mentioned the chorizo, so I had to try that too. It was fantastic, great flavor and no grease! I ate it straight without eggs. I still have a couple of pistachio/​fig sausages to try. probably this afternoon.
Great food, great service. Can’t wait to go back for more…

Just came back from grabbing a brown bag lunch at this place. My dog was absolutely delicious — I got the smoked Italian along with kraut, onion, relish and ketchup. $ 5 is an extremely reasonable price considering you get a bag of chips and a can of pop too. They accept cash, cheque or debit card (minimum $ 10 on debit). You get a brown paper bag with a little order form to write on it then they hand it back to you over the counter when ready. The place is barely larger than my bathroom at home, basically enough room for about five customers to wait inside (with their backs pressed to the door) and a couple of benches to sit on outside (no tables, just seating), so this is definitely a grab and go place. Also about five cattycorner parking spaces. Loved the variety of sausage types they have on offer, great prices per pound on those as well. Will definitely be returning to pick up some sausage for fryups at home.

Schreiners is the real deal! The weiners, brats and sweet Italian sausages are as good as in Germany and Italy.
I purchased a small sampling last week and they were so good that we are headed back this week to stock up on the same and to try some other items.
I didn’t think I’d find a replacement for Claus German market when I moved from Indianapolis, but Schreiners is the place in Phoenix. You will not be disappointed!

Great selection of homemade sausages and smoked meat. Nice samples. Prompt, courteous service. Great value!

Fresh and delicious meat products (no fresh cuts) at really reasonable prices. Their jerky is amazing!

The best breakfast sausage I’ve had in years. They even beat my homemade recipe. I’m sold. Great brats, Italian sausage and jerky. The sauerkraut is very flavorful as well. If you’ve been looking for real kraut (raw not canned) this is the place. Excellent flavor a with all the different items I’ve tried.

Summary: Great quality sausages at reasonable prices
Finally made it here from East Mesa armed with the almost extinct paper currency. It’s a clean if somewhat sterile, bland shop. Sterile is good when you deal with perishable products but they could spice up the interior a bit.
Went on a Saturday. Plenty of parking in the empty parking lot.
Based on earlier reviews, bought the Portuguese Linguisa: fresh and smoked; the andouille, fresh sweet Italian sausage and some smoked ham. In the last week, have eaten everything except the Italian. Myself and my 3 other family members all agreed everything was great and definitely above the average grocery store offerings. Grilled the linguisa. It had a great, mild taste and the casing cooked up to a beautiful, crisp delight. Put the smoked linguisa in a sort of Spanish stew of tomatoes with lots of paprika, garlic and onions and chicken and it was great. For me, the andouille was a standout. It’s a bit spicy, which I like, with a perfect meld of flavors. I crisped it up in a pan and served at breakfast with eggs and caramelized onions. Really great. I usually grill or crisp up more than I need and find they disappear out of the fridge.

There is definitely a reason that Phoenix-​area restaurants who want to use local sausage come to these guys. My sister lives nearby and raves about this place, so we stopped in to pick up some stuff for the Cards game Thursday night. I tried a linguiça and a hot Italian sausage, and once her boyfriend boiled them in beer and then finished them on the grill they were the best sausages I have ever eaten! The guy that filled our order was very nice, and their prices are reasonable too — 6 huge assorted links and two bags of rolls (I recommend the pretzel rolls) came out to less than $ 20 and tasted like a million bucks!

I had driven past schreiner’s for ages and not realized that there was a meat store attached to their facility.
What a gem! Best place to see locovores and Valley chef’s on a daily basis.
I pick up lunch meet charcuterie of salami’s and pepperoni’s sliced to order.
Sausages deliver a whole treat, with several choices ranging from breakfast (maple, fig, bacon) to dinner sausages and everything in between.
Bring a cooler and cash! You will want to load up.

The redwood looking cottage
I have worked in the downtown Phoenix Area for a long time and have driven by Schreiners numerous times but never stopped in, what a mistake on my part.
However, one day my curiosity got the best of me, My co-​worker and I decided to give Schreiners a try for lunch. I went with the brown bag lunch special for just a mere $ 5. The brown bag lunch includes a selection of sausage choices, a variety of condiments, bag of chips and a can of soda. I went with the New York Dog and even tho Schreiners offers a wide variety of condiments I kept it simple and went with mustard only. I was not disappointed. The New York dog was fresh, delicious, and did I mention locally made.
Schreiners offers sausage and other meats by the pound. In addition to, potato salad, macaroni salad, breads, pierogi’s with a number of fillings, and chorizo made daily in the store. On my way out I picked up a pound of chorizo to go.
All I have to say about the chorizo is that Schreiners sells the freshest and best tasting chorizo around. Once you have Schreiners chorizo you will stop buying chorizo from anywhere else. Most store purchased chorizo comes out greasy and oily but Schreiners does not. Schreiners chorizo is full of flavor minus the grease and for less then $ 5.00 a pound you get your moneys worth. Hands down this is the best chorizo around.
If you haven’t stopped by Schreiners you’re missing out.

Who says Phoenix doesn’t have history or culture? The little cottage looking Schreiner’s Fine Sausages has been operating here for over 57 years!
With fresh chops and sausage with such variety as «Hungarian Rope, Knockwurst, Cajun Andoille and Italian Hot Links».
They also sell a wide variety of mustards, relishes and Kraut, perfect gifts for Sausage lovers. Plus a drivethrough window for all you lazy folk.
Finally went there for lunch after having driven passed it for over 13 years and was pleasantly surprised at the selection and the sample tray with radish topping. I shall be stopping a lot more to taste more linkful delights.
Thank you Schreiner and keep up the good work and tradition.

Been coming here for over 15 years. If you are looking for a nice variety of sausages and lunch meats that are not just one ethnic group, this is a great place in central Phoenix to visit. Too many varieties to list them all.
Today we got some of our favorites from the front meat case. Picked up some knockwurst, bockwurst, smoked andouille for homemade gumbo, smoked chicken with sun dried tomato and basil. Goes good with egg noodles and homemade pesto. Then out of the freezer, some bulk Sicilian for homemade spaghetti sauce and some of the tasty southwest breakfast sausages that Richardson’s uses on their restaurant menu.
They make and supply sausages for a lot of the great valley’s restaurants. I had a friend who owned a local restaurant and he wanted a certain type of sausage made from a place from back home in OR. He made arrangements and brought in a sample of his sausage and they came up with a recipe that hit the spot and then supplied him with batches the size he needed.
Come on down and give them a visit. Did somebody say SAUSAGE?
