What we're known for

Hearty food, no messing about

The Ulster Fry

Egg, bacon, sausage, soda, potato bread and beans — cooked to order and out the hatch hot.

Made to order

Fresh rolls, toasties and sandwiches built while you wait, wrapped up and ready to go.

Pennybridge local

Two minutes off the estate floor — in before the whistle, out before your break's up.

The café

Fuel for the industrial estate, since first light

Grafters sits at the heart of the Pennybridge Industrial Estate on the north side of Ballymena — a working café for working people, built around a fast counter and a full plate.

Mornings start with the fry going down in batches and the tea urn never quite empty. By lunchtime it's rolls, toasties and sandwiches made while you stand there, so you're back on the floor before the break's over.
