Their success is built on quality products, outstanding service and great tasting food. The Apperley family are no strangers to the food and meat industry with over 50 years of experience in the butchery trade between brothers John and Colin, accumulating a wealth of knowledge, skill and expertise along the way. You could say that the food and retail business runs “in the blood” as their great gra

ndfather had Elliot’s butchers shop in Kilrea in the early 1900s. The Diamond Café in Kilrea belonged to their grandparents, Jack and Annie Apperley and the tradition was handed down to their father Barry who also worked in the café for many years. Barry and his wife Georgina Apperley ran the Bridgeway Café in Kilrea in the 1980s which was part of family life and so the tradition has been passed on again to the next generation. John began his career as a butcher in 1988 and his brothers Paul (Bear) and Colin joined him in the butchery business a few years later. His sister Anne joined them in 2012 when they developed a range of ready meals alongside Paul. Their journey has been one of highs and lows and many paths crossed. With an impressive repertoire of butchery and retail achievements, the Apperley family were previously the driving force behind McAtamney’s Butchers, a successful chain of butchers and delis. John took charge of McAtamney’s in 2000 and expanded the business from 3 shops to 13 introducing a wide range of ready meals to the butchery trade, creating well-known brands such as Bear's Grill. Apperley’s has always had a vision and with hard work and determination that vision, passion and desire to offer customers amazing food has become a reality in 2020. It’s now time to shine the spotlight on their own Apperley name and we are excited to bring the Apperley’s brand to you through our Antrim butchers shop which opened in May and our deli in Ballymoney. Purveyors of fine foods, Apperley’s deliver the finest quality products and outstanding service giving their customers great tasting food at the right price.
