Absolutely fantastic butchers - any meats you want cut how you want - just purchased some ribs and some pork shoulder, the guys went all out to accommodate the cuts to exactly what I wanted, highly knowledgeable and highly skilled butchery service (which is getting very rare these days!)
Would recommend highly especially for those of you who like speciality cuts for smoking/BBQing
Looking forward to using their services again in the future

Awesome I invest $800 and i am earning $9000 on weekly basis, Mrs Rachael Raschke a good and trustworthy account manager that allows me to withdraw my profits anytime I want and I can monitor everything going on in my account when she is busy trading with her expert team and I don't have issues with pending withdrawals she's a very honest woman. I… have no way of thanking her than letting people know about her services and recommend her for everyone to trade on her platform. She's 100% accurate and up-to-date.

Great range and super helpful. Was looking larger than usual rack of beef short ribs and with a couple days notice they delivered the goods. Plenty of helpful advice and a friendly approach.

Found older male member of staff quite rude when asking for help to see if they had any stock of a particular product. Younger staff members in contrast very helpful.

Even though we live in Banbridge I have used Doweys regularly and at Christmas. Yesterday they were able to accommodate our very last minute Christmas Dinner order without a problem and they only asked for £10 deposit!! Would definitely recommend Doweys to anyone.

Outstanding quality, exceptional local produce, and a family orientated, personalised service. My mum ordered the ham, turkey, stuffing and cocktail sausages for Christmas. I collected the order, prepared… exactly to my mum’s requests, on Christmas Eve along with two fabulous cheesecakes. Christmas Day; the ham and turkey were cooked to absolute perfection and completely and utterly delicious. Everything we ordered was a triumph.
Back again on New Year’s Eve, I chose a Rib Eye Roast. Again, an absolute joy. Followed Simon’s advice on cooking and it was spot on, the beef

First time visiting the cafe here. When I arrived around 1pm the cafe was empty. I thought this can't be good. There wasn't even a staff member. Having said that when I was served the member of staff was friendly. Lovely chunky chips. Their curry is sweet, beautiful! I will be back.

Quality of produce is second only to the best of memories that went along with your Nan's bangers and mash with brown onion gravy. Staff are extremely helpful, if what you are asking for can be done they will do it.
