We provide Top Quality Food with an exceptionally high standard of flair, imagination, service, variety and value. We believe in supporting our local community and our policy is to source all our foods and ingredients from local suppliers.
We accept group bookings for family occasions and other events and can accommodate groups with a customised menu to meet their requirements. We can also provide a separate private function area – catering for between 20 – 40 people.
We make home made scones, cakes, breads, desserts, tray bakes. Everything is baked fresh each day by our own bakers and confectioners in our own kitchen upstairs. For those special occasions we can make you a themed cake.
Heffernan’s Butchers was established in 1961 by John Heffernan at Convent Hill Ballina. His son Anthony carries on the proud family tradition today, developing the business into a fine food emporium to include Butchery, Bakery, Café & Deli.
As well as providing top quality and fully traceable food we strive to do everything possible to make you feel welcome and comfortable. All food in our delicatessen is prepared by our staff in house. We source all our foods and ingredients from local suppliers and to prepare everything in our own abattoir, kitchen or bakery.
Anthony Heffernan sources all his meat from local farmers in North Mayo. He hand picks every single animal before they are delivered directly to Heffernan’s fully licensed abattoir. Here they are culled, prepared, dry aged and stored to the “Heffernan’s Fine Food Standard”. Anthony has won Hygiene Award for his abattoir and supplies all meat to the Heffernan’s Fine Foods & Heifer and Hen Restaurant. Butcher’s is open daily with the freshest selection of the best. This hands-on approach and knowledge of the life cycle from Farm to Fork that enables Anthony Heffernan to guarantee full traceability, quality and hygiene.
