First time eating here and I must say it was lovely. Staff were very attentive. I had the small fry which was just the right amount. There is a gut buster breakfast on the menu if you are really hungry. Enough to feed 2 men and a wee lad. Normal amount for the shams in Ballymena 😉

Best fry up in Ballymena. Ordered the large fry (£7.50), couldn't finish it. The 'belly buster' must be next level. Great that it's open on Sunday's now, plus you can get a fry all day unlike most places in Ballymena. Very reasonably priced.

Been eating a lot of Ulster Frys on my trip home but this one stands out. I really enjoyed the large fry, ( sausage, bacon, black and white pudding, mushrooms, egg, potato and soda bread, pancake, beans, hash brown), all items well cooked and tasty with a free pot of tea but what made the experience a stand out was the graceful willingness of the worker to accommodate my modified order. I don't like mushrooms at all and the young man taking the order immediately offered to replace them with another item and it was no bother to poach the eggs and throw mine (I don't like egg either) onto my brother's plate. First class, cooked brekkie. Warm, welcoming service. Thank you !

The name of the cafe says it all. Really suited to the grafers of the World who are out and about on a daily basis and need some good grub for the day ahead. Honestly the best fry in the town. Small, large and the "Gut buster" if you dare! Unbelievably competitive on price compared to other cafe's in town. The premises aren't particularly pretty but staff are really friendly and the food is great!

I have travelled all over Ireland in my job and wherever I land I have always measured my stay by the Omelettes served at Breakfast. From the G Hotel in Galway to the Europa in Belfast, I always compare their Omelettes to Grafters and I have yet to get one that is as delicious as Fabian's. Great Food, Great Service and Amazing Omelettes.

We used to visit Grafters quite a lot but we will not be visiting any more. The price of a breakfast has now changed to 80pence per item which as my husband used to enjoy a good breakfast it has now become too expensive. Also the taste of the chips,beans and tea has deteriated to such an extent that it is not very nice at all. It is as if they are sacrificing quality save a bit on the cost. I know we will not be visiting again and we have supported Grafters from the day it opened.

Wish I had found this establishment years ago. Great little jem of a pub/restaurant. Lovely old building with great decor for a traditional pub. The owners were really friendly and a great laugh. Food was amazing, that good that we visited more than once working in ballymena. Came in very close to the end of the serving times with the possibility of it being to late. The owners were really hospitable and fitted us in. There Guinness is lovely also. Will return on next job.
