There’s been a Quails butcher’s shop at this site in Banbridge town centre since 1898, but the cafe is a relatively new kid on the block, having opened in 1996. This foodie family knows what their customers like. Their Great Taste Award- winning cooked meats, like the Honey Roast Ham go into their super sandwiches; the chicken and ham pie is a top seller and the soups and stews are to die for.

You have to leave room for something sweet. Everything here is baked on site from the scones and wheatens to the tray- bakes and local Bramley apple tarts. Being farmers themsleves, the Quails know how important it is to buy local, so the coffee is from Johnstons and the teas come from SD Bells and Suki. You can have wine though, if you’re in the mood. Most of what they buy in is from a 15-20 mile radius.

For a delicious bite to eat in a contemporary, friendly atmosphere, look no further. It seats up to 60, so bring lots of friends!
