meat market

Where butchers sell

A meat market is a shop or section of a store where butchers sell fresh meat.

The term extends to any venue where people are evaluated primarily for their physical attributes—a singles bar, modeling agency, or sports tryout where bodies are appraised like cuts of beef: That club is such a meat market.
